A Kansas State University fraternity has donated $35,000 to a local animal shelter after one of its members was seriously injured in a car accident.
Blake Aurand, a member of the Delta Sigma Phi fraternity, was riding his motorcycle on Saturday when he was hit by a vehicle going the wrong way on a highway, the Manhattan Daily News reports.
Aurand was rushed to a hospital with injuries that were not life-threatening.
The driver of the other vehicle suffered minor injuries.
The fraternity raised the money by hosting a dogs' walk on April 28.
