MISSION:
The Buffalo Bills Alumni Foundation was founded in 1960. It is
comprised of past Buffalo Bills players, who left an imprint on society
during their football careers and want to continue molding society in a
positive manner.
Not only have they changed the game, but they have touched and shaped
Buffalo as we know it today.
The Alumni Chapter is concerned with increasing awareness and knowledge
of problems that we can help resolve, and we pursue this objective by
bestowing grants to charities for meaningful intentions and activities.
Our society is engulfed by poverty, deprived children and innumerable
people battling with diseases and disorders among other things, and the
foundation aspires to help alleviate the burden of these people.
Our intention is largely focused on creating a better environment for
our youth, because as they mature they will lead us into the future.
Some of our past recipients include: Make a Wish Foundation, Kids
Escaping Drugs, Athletes in Action, the Seneca Diabetes Foundation, and
the Kelly for Kids Foundation. We hope that our active involvement
reciprocates all that the Western New York community has done for us.
VISION:
Our hope is to meet the needs and
expectations of the community by
enhancing the capacity for productive living.We strongly believe that a
continuous commitment and dedication to this cause encourages and
rewards individuals, group and organizations to progress and expand in
their own respective mission.
If everyone tries to make a difference, then the Buffalo community will
constantly improve.
To achieve the above goals and fulfill the
Buffalo Bills Alumni’s
