Freshman Ava Marchand and Junior Grace Marchand presented the Monument Task Committee with a $700 donation for the ongoing care of the Margaret Haughery Statue located near Coliseum Square in New Orleans. Ava and Grace raised the money themselves by simply selling lemonade.
Margaret Haughery worked closely with the New Orleans Sisters of Charity and opened a number of orphanages throughout the city during the 19th century. Haughery is most historically known for her generosity for children.
