A Hobart College student is hospitalized in Ukraine, after suffering serious injuries during a dead bomb attack on a pizza restaurant last week.

24-year-old Cristiano Zeledon is in Ukraine for the summer on a volunteer humanitarian mission. Zeledon joined the marines before college and was a pre-law student hoping to go to Cornell University.

Zeledon’s sister has started a A Go Fund Me campaign hoping to raise money for his recovery.

There is also a second fund raising campaign at spotfund.com
