Hello Everyone!
The K.I.C. members and Running Club did a fantastic job working in the garden on our Global Youth Service Day (GYSD)! We also received a monetary donation from Disney Channel's Friends for Change program! What a great way to celebrate GYSD! The Running Club and K.I.C. got dirty shoveling dirt, working on the Taro section, and we even planted our first few Sweet Potato plants! There are two types of Sweet Potatoe that we planted: 'Uala Piko and 'Uala Iliahi. They are growing fairly well, and we water them everyday!
As we mentioned, the Running club came along to help out with the garden as well. We interviewed a few of the students that came, and here are some of their thoughts on the garden:
Kaiya Sasaki:
"I came in and went straight to work." From shoveling, to planting, to pulling weeds, She wasn't afraid to get dirty. After doing a lot of hard work, she said, "Working in the garden was awesome and fun!" Helping out with the garden isn't her first experience with helping the Earth. Sometimes she volunteers at plantations. Maybe one day she can be a part of the K.I.C. crew!
Dayanara Arroyo:
Dayanara Arroyo, another 5th grader, help out K.I.C. out in the garden. She did many jobs like weeding and shoveling. "It was tiring, but fun!" she adds. Working on the garden really encouraged her to do more to help the Earth. She never leaves trash behind! Dayanara really cares about the Earth and plans to be a part of K.I.C. next year!
Michelle Winczner:
Michelle Winczner experienced many jobs such as digging and pulling weeds. "It was a lot of hard work. FUN!" Working in the garden with K.I.C. wasn't her first time gardening, however. Every year she helps the Earth by planting flowers and trees in the summer. Knowing that she can to more to help the Earth is what encourages her to join K.I.C.

Brandon Ramirez:
Just because Brandon is a 4th grader, that doesn't stop him from helping the Earth. Brandon was a part of the gardening group on April 21st. He mostly did some shoveling and weeding. Brandon contributes his time helping and cleaning up around his community. He may only be a student at Keone'ula elementary, but that doesn't mean he can't be a BIG help to save the Earth!
As you can see, you don't have to be in K.I.C. to make difference! Help save the Earth and make it a better place!
Sincerely,
