From right Rebecca Monroe, Fayetteville Ark. junior, and Gianna Short, Edmond Okla. junior, fill their plates with traditional Haitian food during a fundraiser at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries Tuesday night. The fundraiser, which was put together by the KU honors program student council, was to raise money for an orphanage in Haiti to finish building on a girl's dormitory interupted due to lack of funds. According to Heidi Girgis, a member of the honors program student council, Haitian law prohibits boys and girls from living together, therefore without a seperate dormitory the girls of the orphanage are often forced to spend the night on the streets.
