For the second year in a row, Junior Achievement of Greater New Orleans students have won the Trust Your Crazy Ideas Challenge State Finals. Caroline Brady and Vivian Vazquez are the founders of Plenty Pockets, pocket extenders for women. The two seniors from Mount Carmel Academy have won $10,000 in scholarships and $5,000 for their school. We can’t wait to see how the Plenty Pockets business grows!
