6-year-old gives Tom Brady $10 during Make-A-Wish Foundation visit to Gillette Stadium

Buy yourself something nice, Brady.

A 6-year-old was glad to meet some New England Patriots stars on Saturday, and had a little something special for Tom Brady: 10 bucks.

This weekend, Make a Wish Massachusetts and Rhode Island fulfilled Gabriel's wish: to play football with New England...

Posted by Gabriel's Day of Kindness on Sunday, November 8, 2015

Gabriel Aljalian was diagnosed with leukemia when he was 3 years old. He, presumably with some help from the adults in his life, organized an event called “Gabriel’s Day of Kindness” on the third anniversary of his diagnosis, donating gifts to Boston Children’s Hospital and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

ESPN reports:

In recognition of his selflessness, the Make-A-Wish Foundation invited Aljalian and 10 other kids to Gillette Stadium to meet Brady, owner Robert Kraft, tight end Rob Gronkowski and others. They conducted news conferences, saw their names on the videoboard and wore special Patriots jerseys made for them.

Aljalian gave Brady a thank you note with $10 in it, which ESPN says Brady accepted with a smile.
