More than $300,000 has been raised to support former U.S. Rep. Michael Grimm’s recovery after he was recently paralyzed in a horseback riding accident, according to an online fundraiser.
Since launching the GoFundMe campaign on Sunday, organizers have received more than 3,000 individual donations to help cover Grimm’s ongoing medical expenses. The funds will contribute to his long-term recovery efforts, which organizers estimate will cost millions of dollars.
