Good News for U of I


Carson King reached his goal of raising $3 million for the University of Iowa Stead Family Children's Hospital on Wednesday. According to a tweet from Mr. King, local Busch Light distributors stepped up to donate the final $41,000 to meet his goal. This comes after announcing he'd raised $2.95 million by his Sept. 30 deadline. Mr. King's fundraising effort started when he held a handwritten sign outside of the Cy-Hawk game in September, asking for beer money donations to his Venmo account. Anheuser-Bush, Venmo, RAGBRAI and several other organizations donated large portions of the grand total.
