KeyBank Supports Rasmus Dahlin Foundation with $26K Donation


12/12/2024


KeyBank and the Buffalo Sabres share a long-standing partnership rooted in both business and community involvement. As the official bank of the NHL team, KeyBank is closely tied to the Sabres, who play their home games at the KeyBank Center in downtown Buffalo.

Recently, KeyBank contributed $26,000 to support the launch of Sabres Captain and Defenseman Rasmus Dahlin’s Rasmus Dahlin Foundation. The donation reflects Dahlin’s jersey number, 26. “KeyBank is proud to collaborate with Rasmus Dahlin as he establishes his foundation to positively impact the lives of children in need throughout Western New York,” said Michael McMahon, KeyBank Buffalo Market President. “This donation represents our belief in his mission and the meaningful contributions the foundation will make in our community. Go Sabres!”

Founded in October, the Rasmus Dahlin Foundation aims to improve the lives of children in the Buffalo area, focusing on health, wellness, and resources for underserved communities.
KeyBank’s support has also helped introduce a “Text to Donate” program, launched on December 3rd. Fans can contribute to the foundation by texting “Dahlin” to 86225, with every $10 donation earning an entry for a chance to meet Dahlin at a Sabres game later in the season.

Expressing his gratitude, Dahlin said, “I deeply appreciate KeyBank’s generous donation to my foundation. Their commitment and ongoing support throughout the season highlight their dedication to Western New York. Together, we can make a real difference in the lives of children in our community.”
