Emmanuel Ramnarain sustained a traumatic brain injury and is at Morristown Medical Center, Kristyn Dietrich, a family friend of Ramnarain's and the organizer of the fundraiser, said. Doctors are closely monitoring the swelling in his brain, Dietrich said.
As of Wednesday, Feb. 28, the fundraiser has raised more than $24,000.
All funds raised will go toward Ramnarain's mother, Sherida, to assist with medical expenses.
"[Emmanuel] will have a long and difficult recovery ahead," Dietrich said.
