BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - Friends, family, and community members gathered in Buffalo to help the victim of a serious accident.

26 year old Travis Braun was left partially paralyzed after a motorcycle accident on I-90 back in August.

Months later, he's still facing a long road to recovery, and hundreds of people headed to the Connecticut Street Armory to show their support.

Event organizer, Lyn Braun said, "I've heard this a million times and it's the truth, Buffalo is a giving place. If anyone doubts that, this is proof."

The event featured live music, a raffle, and an auction.

Organizers hoped to raise $30,000 for specialized equipment to help with Travis' recovery.
