Schaumburg event raises money for memorial scholarship
Schaumburg High School hosted a fundraising event Friday for the Mikias Tefera Tibebu Memorial Scholarship in District 211.
Tibebu, a senior athlete and honor student, was killed by a hit-and-run driver in December. He was among the finalists for a scholarship at Pomona College in California but died a few days before his scheduled interview.
Friday’s event included games, a mini track meet and more. For more information about the scholarship fund, visit www.mikiasmile.com.
