‘”We are so overwhelmed with gratitude. These are very meaningful resources for us,” said Executive Director of P.U.N.T. Pediatric Cancer Collaborative, Gwen Mysiak. “Dawson is extremely involved in our mission, he has been since his rookie year not just as a spokesperson who shows up and signs autographs, but as somebody who really cares and understands what we do and why we do it. There’s never been a time we’ve reached out to him for anything in the three years he’s been a Buffalo Bill that he hasn’t come to serve in whatever way that he can. I know it’s important to him to use his blessings on the field to give back off the field.’
