Elementary School Fundraiser To Honor Mollie Tibbetts

Elementary students will raise money in honor of University of Iowa student Mollie Tibbetts in her hometown of Brooklyn, Iowa Thursday night.

Investigators say Tibbetts was kidnapped and stabbed while out on a jog in Brooklyn in July 2018. They found her body in a cornfield in Poweshiek County about a month later.

KCRG-TV 9 reports fourth graders at BGM Elementary School in Brooklyn created their own businesses and products as part of an entrepreneurship unit.

Some of the items will be sold after the elementary concert Thursday night. The concert starts at 6 p.m. All of the money raised will go to the University of Iowa Stead Family Children's Hospital in honor of Tibbetts.
