Lá vem história: Katie Stagliano.
"A SALVAÇÃO DO REPOLHO DE KATIE STAGLIANO"
Pesquisa feita por: Ana Clara Silva Costa - 4° ano C - Interschool Brasil - Goiânia.
Em 2008 , a americana Katie Stagliano, então com 9 anos, levou para casa sementes de repolho que ganhou na escola. Ela as plantou no quintal e cuidou da planta até que crescesse e alcançasse 18 quilos . Katie doou o repolho gigante para uma instituição de caridade que preparava para pessoas carentes e conseguiu alimentar mais de 207 pessoas com o vegetal . Impressionada e empolgada, a menina decidiu criar hortas cujos produtos frescos seriam doados para aqueles com necessidades.
Hoje aos 20 anos, ela cuida da ONG Katie 's Krops, que coordena mais de cem hortas mantidas por crianças e jovens em diversas partes dos Estados Unidos. Em 2018 a iniciativa premiadíssima, doou mais de 10.000 kg de produtos frescos para programas de combate à fome, centros de câncer e famílias carentes.

Friday Releases for April 30
Friday is the busiest day of the week for new releases, so we've decided to collect them all in one place. Friday Releases for April 30 include Limbo, Yasuke, New Pokémon Snap, and more.
Limbo
Limbo, the new movie from Ben Sharrock, is out today.
Limbo is a wry and poignant observation of the refugee experience, set on a fictional remote Scottish island where a group of new arrivals await the results of their asylum claims. It centers on Omar (Amir El-Masry), a young Syrian musician who is burdened by his grandfather’s oud, which he has carried all the way from his homeland.
Without Remorse
Without Remorse, the new movie from Stefano Sollima, is out today.
In a war-torn region of Syria, an elite team of Navy SEALs led by Sr. Chief John Kelly (Michael B. Jordan) rescues a CIA operative taken hostage by ex-Russian military forces. Three months later, in apparent retaliation for his role in the mission, Kelly’s pregnant wife Pam (Lauren London) is murdered in the U.S. by a squad of masked Russian assassins. Despite being shot multiple times himself, Kelly manages to kill all but one of the attackers before being rushed to the hospital.
Meanwhile in Washington D.C., Kelly’s friend and former SEAL team member Lt. Commander Karen Greer (Jodie Turner-Smith) meets with CIA agent Robert Ritter (Jamie Bell) and Secretary of Defense Thomas Clay (Guy Pearce) to discuss their response options. Leaked news of Russia’s unprecedented attack on American soil has caused the already-strained relations between the two nations to sour further. If something isn’t done soon the result could be a full-scale war.
Healed from his injuries, a rogue Kelly tracks down the corrupt Russian diplomat who issued the passports to his wife’s murderers, and forces him at gunpoint to give up the name of the surviving assassin. Sent to prison for the crime, Kelly bargains his way out by revealing the escaped operative is one Victor Rykov (Brett Gelman), an ex-Special Forces officer currently hiding in Murmansk, Russia.
With Secretary Clay’s reluctant approval, Kelly joins Greer and Ritter on a top-secret mission to capture Rykov and bring him back to the U.S. to face justice. But en route to Murmansk, their plane is shot down by the Russian Air Force and plummets into the Bering Sea. Using their SEAL skills to survive the crash, they eventually make their way to Rykov’s location, only to discover that the murder of Kelly’s family was part of a vast international conspiracy orchestrated by powerful political figures. Torn between personal honor and loyalty to his country, and with the fate of nations hanging in the balance, Kelly has no choice but to expose the truth, no matter the cost.
About Endlessness
About Endlessness, the new movie from Roy Andersson, is out today.
ABOUT ENDLESSNESS is a reflection on human life in all its beauty and cruelty, its splendor and banality. We wander, dreamlike, gently guided by our Scheherazade-esque narrator. Inconsequential moments take on the same significance as historical events: a couple floats over a war-torn Cologne; on the way to a birthday party, a father stops to tie his daughter’s shoelaces in the pouring rain; teenage girls dance outside a cafe; a defeated army marches to a prisoner-of-war camp. Simultaneously an ode and a lament, ABOUT ENDLESSNESS presents a kaleidoscope of all that is eternally human, an infinite story of the vulnerability of existence.
The Outside Story
The Outside Story, the new movie from Casimir Nozkowski, is out today.
While on a tight deadline, an introverted editor (Brian Tyree Henry) is locked out of his apartment. In order to find his way back inside, he’s forced to interact with… his neighbors.
Four Good Days
Four Good Days, the new movie from Rodrigo García, is out today.
A long-estranged mother and daughter navigate the most difficult four days of their lives together in a heartbreaking and hopeful story based on real-life events.
The Mitchells vs. The Machines
The Mitchells vs. The Machines, the new movie from Michael Rianda and Jeff Rowe, is out today.
The Mitchells vs. The Machines is an original animated comedy about an everyday family’s struggle to relate while technology rises up around the world! When Katie Mitchell (voiced by Abbi Jacobson), a creative outsider, is accepted into the film school of her dreams, her plans to meet “her people” at college are upended when her nature-loving dad Rick (voiced by Danny McBride) determines the whole family should drive Katie to school together and bond as a family one last time.
The Virtuoso
The Virtuoso, the new movie from Nick Stagliano, is out today.
Danger, deception, and murder descend upon a sleepy country town when a professional assassin (Anson Mount) accepts a new assignment from his enigmatic mentor and boss (Oscar winner Anthony Hopkins). Given only where and when along with a cryptic clue, the methodical hit man must identify his mysterious mark from among several possible targets, including a local sheriff (David Morse). Meanwhile, a chance encounter with an alluring woman (Abbie Cornish) at the town’s rustic diner threatens to derail his mission in this noir-style cloak-and-dagger thriller.
The Disciple
The Disciple, the new movie from Chaitanya Tamhane, is out today.
A musician’s unadulterated devotion, a mirage-like quest for divinity, and the courage to fight your own mediocrity. The Disciple is the tale of an Indian classical vocalist, Sharad Nerulkar, searching for the traditional absolute in a contemporary city that never stops hustling.
Berlin Alexanderplatz
Berlin Alexanderplatz, the new movie from Burhan Qurbani, is out today.
An African immigrant struggles to make a new life for himself in the big city in writer-director Burhan Qurbani’s audacious, neon-lit reinterpretation of Alfred Döblin’s 1929 novel. After surviving his perilous journey, Francis vows to be a good man, but he soon realizes how difficult it is to be righteous while undocumented in Germany– without papers, without a nationality, and without a work permit. When he receives an enticing offer for easy money from the psychopathic gangster Reinhold, Francis initially resists temptation, but eventually he is sucked into Berlin’s underworld and his life spirals out of control.
Eat Wheaties!
Eat Wheaties!, the new movie from Scott Abramovitch, is out today.
Sid Straw (Tony Hale) leads a dull life until he accidentally stalks famous college friend, Elizabeth Banks, on social media. With each failed attempt to prove he knows her, he rediscovers more of himself and the true meaning of friendship.
The Innocent
The Innocent, the new TV series from Oriol Paulo, is out today.
An accidental killing leads a man down a dark hole of intrigue and murder. Just as he finds love and freedom, one phone call brings back the nightmare.
The Mosquito Coast
The Mosquito Coast, the new TV series from Neil Cross and Tom Bissell, is out today.
A brilliant rebel (Justin Theroux) and his wife (Melissa George) take their family on the run to protect them, but end up exposing them to more danger than ever. At every turn of their adventure, they encounter increasing threats and intensifying moral choices from which there’s no turning back.
Yasuke
Yasuke, the new TV series from LeSean Thomas, is out today.
In a war-torn feudal Japan filled with mechs and magic, the greatest ronin never known, Yasuke, struggles to maintain a peaceful existence after a past life of violence. But when a local village becomes the center of social upheaval between warring daimyo, Yasuke must take up his sword and transport a mysterious child who is the target of dark forces and bloodthirsty warlords.
Returnal
Returnal, the new game from Housemarque and Sony Interactive Entertainment, is out today.
After crash-landing on this shape-shifting world, Selene must search through the barren landscape of an ancient civilization for her escape. Isolated and alone, she finds herself fighting tooth and nail for survival. Again and again, she’s defeated – forced to restart her journey every time she dies.
New Pokémon Snap
New Pokémon Snap, the new game from Nintendo, is out today.
Welcome to the Lental region, whose islands hold everything from dense jungles to vast deserts! New Pokémon Snap is an all-new game inspired by the 1999 Nintendo 64 game Pokémon Snap.

男孩与他花园里的农作物。（图片：希望之声合成）
【希望之声2020年4月13日】（编译：李雪莲）居住在美国得克萨斯州奥斯汀市的伊恩?麦肯纳（Ian McKenna），在他八岁的时候，得知姐姐的一个同学住在拖车场，在圣诞节前夜没有圣诞礼物和食物。开始他以为这只是一个特例，但很快又得知他的不少同学都依赖于学校提供的早餐和午餐，并且经常饿着肚子睡觉。而且不幸的是，美国将近18％的儿童无法获得他们所需的日常营养。
麦肯纳说：“起初我不相信，但是后来我感到担忧，因为我知道自己饥饿时无法专注学业，我希望每个人在学校都有平等的机会。”
从那时起，他就开始承担重任，把他花园中的收成提供给那些需要的学生。
建造花园
麦肯纳曾尝试在不同的组织中当志工，比如像食物银行等，但由于年龄原因，他被拒绝了。从那时起，他决定自己来解决这个难题。
他一直喜欢种植物，并开始在小学里建一个花园，以便他的同学们可以享用新鲜、营养的食物。幸运的是，他得到了老师和校长的大力支持，但是建造花园并不是没有障碍。
一次发生了可怕的事，麦肯纳发现他的小学花园遭到破坏。他的堆肥箱被毁，植物被从土壤中拔出来，花园里到处都是碎玻璃。麦肯纳没有被吓倒，继续他的工作。
麦肯纳回忆说：“我知道有些人只是个混蛋，所以我只是不让这些困难困扰、阻止我。”
麦肯纳看到他的花园为需要食物的家庭提供了很多帮助。当他意识到有些人不知道如何储备某些蔬果时，他向同学们提供了烹饪课程和食谱。
成长的爱
麦肯纳开始将他的园艺计划扩展到奥斯汀的其它学校和社区。他姐姐所在的学校请他建花园，其它学校很快也与他联系。
为了养活更多的孩子和家庭，麦肯纳在五所不同的学校建造了五个花园。当得克萨斯州加菲尔德的奥斯汀果园了解麦肯纳的工作时，他们向他捐赠了一英亩土地，用于为有需要的人种植农产品。
麦肯纳开始建造花园的一年后，他的姐姐加入了他，并通过自己的果园计划（Frutas Frescas）开始种植水果。她在弟弟的花园里创办了果园，并在另一所小学维护着自己的果园。
2016年，麦肯纳申请成为Katie’s Krops的种植者，该组织鼓励年轻人建造自己的花园，并将作物捐赠给有需要的人。创始人凯蒂?斯塔利亚诺（Katie Stagliano）九岁那年，她将自己种植的40磅大白菜捐赠给当地的汤品厨房。在意识到新鲜的白菜如何帮助275名需要帮助的人后，她创立了Katie’s Krops。
“我立即感到与凯蒂有关联，因为我们在战胜饥饿方面也有类似的经历。我们从同一年龄开始，我们有相似的故事，”麦肯纳说。
在自己的后院拥有花园，使他可以更好地照料和保护自己的植物。他想出了如何在正式的花园中安装高架床的方法，并学会了利用垂直空间。
Katie’s Krops也提供了资金和支持，这帮助麦肯纳扩大了他的花园并种植了大量高质量的农产品。他终年种植，并生产各种易于存储和烹饪的蔬果，包括西红柿，羽衣甘蓝，生菜和土豆。
迄今为止，现年15岁的麦肯纳从他的所有花园中捐赠了19，225磅的农产品给有需要的人，他还是Katie's Krops的董事会成员。他希望将自己的花园扩大到其它有需要的地区，因为随着中共病毒（武汉肺炎）大流行而得不到安全粮食保障的人数增加了。
他不仅继续捐赠产品，而且还希望向家庭捐赠农产品栽植苗，以便他们在家中种植自己的产品。
麦肯纳说：“我看起来只是在做一小部分事情来帮助那些面临饥饿的人，我只是希望我能激励人们捐赠他们花园里收获的多余作物给那些需要的人。”

How a giant cabbage eventually helped this girl feed hundreds of thousands of people.
The average cabbage weighs between one and eight pounds. In 2008, a nine-year-old girl grew a cabbage so large it could have come from a fairy tale about enchanted vegetables.

Katie Stagliano
Katie Stagliano received a tiny cabbage seedling in 3rd grade which changed her life. That seedling grew to be a 40lb cabbage, which Katie donated to a local soup kitchen called Tri-County Family Ministries.
“As I served my cabbage to the guests and they thanked me for helping to feed them, I knew I could, and I should do more to help,” said Katie. “My one cabbage helped to feed 275 people. After seeing how many people my one cabbage helped to feed, I thought how many people can a garden feed? And that was the inspiration for me to start Katie’s Krops.”
Katie’s Krops empowers kids to create vegetable gardens in their communities. The food grown in the gardens is then donated to shelters and people in need. Katie started Katie’s Krops in May 2008 when she was only nine, but she already understood how the issue of hunger impacts many families around the United States.
“Hunger can affect anyone: your neighbor, your classmates, your friends. Many people/families are just one paycheck away from not being able to put food on their dinner table. 1 in 6 people in America face hunger. Fresh produce should not be a luxury, it should be a staple in every household.”
Now, 10 years later Katie’s Krops is still changing lives. In 2017, more than 39,000 pounds of food grown in Katie’s Krops gardens was donated and in June 2018, Katie was announced as the grand prize winner of the General Mills Feeding Better Futures Scholar Program, which is “an initiative encouraging young people to share their in-action hunger relief and sustainable agriculture solutions.”
As the grand prize winner, Katie will be paired with an industry mentor, presented her work at the Aspen Ideas Festival, and also received a check for $50,000, which will enable her to expand Katie’s Krops to increase the number of gardens and help more communities.
“Every year it is heartbreaking to turn away youth who want to become Katie’s Krops Growers due to a lack of funding. I am looking forward to being able to welcome even more youth to our growing family and reaching my goal of a Katie’s Krops garden in all 50 states.”
Katie currently attends the College of Charleston where she is gaining her education in communications and environmental sustainability studies. While in school, she continues to stay actively involved in the day to day operations of Katie’s Krops.
Interested in becoming a Katie’s Krops Grower? Kids ages 9–16 are encouraged to apply on their website.

Katie Stagliano: Founder of "Katie’s Krops"

What started with a 9 year-old, a cabbage seedling and a third-grade project has evolved into a nonprofit program that encourages kids nationwide to plant school vegetable gardens, grow crops and donate them to help feed the hungry.
The mastermind behind the project, known as Katie’s Krops, is 15-year-old Katie Stagliano, Summerville, S.C. Not only is she helping fellow kids learn about gardening and hunger, but she’s inspiring them to volunteer and give back to the community.
Don Goodwin, owner and president of Golden Sun Marketing, Minneapolis, met Katie and her family about four years ago at a Disney World event. As she addressed a group of about 1,000 people, Goodwin says he was blown away by her vision of providing fresh food to the needy. He then traveled to South Carolina to meet with Katie and her parents.
“I was so impressed with Katie and her vision that we offered our services as a marketing company,” he says. “Katie’s Krops has become the charity my company supports with time and money.”
Stagliano credited much of her success to an extremely supportive family, an “amazing group of friends” who volunteer, school officials and the produce industry.
“All of these people have come together and truly helped me establish this,” she says.
When the soup kitchen in Summerville shut its doors about three years ago, Katie’s Krops stepped in and began serving a free dinner at least once a month.
Katie’s Krops has kid-run gardens in at least 25 states, and Stagliano says her goal is to have gardens in every state as well as in other countries.

Green fingered 12 year old feeds 100s

IMMD: News of the Day
12-year-old food grower donates 2 tonnes of vegetables to homeless
“When Katie Stagliano, from South Carolina, was just nine years old, she planted a cabbage seedling that grew to change her life. In fact, when it weighed an astounding two-and-a-half stone, she knew it was destined for greater things than her own kitchen.
So, the cabbage was harvested, hoisted onto her father’s truck and delivered to a nearby soup kitchen, where it fed 275 people. ‘If one cabbage can feed that many,’ Katie thought, ‘imagine how many people a whole garden could feed.’
Saddened by seeing families having to queue for their only meal of the day, she set up Katie’s Krops. Run as a non-profit organisation and supported by donations and grants, its aim is to create as many vegetable plots as possible and yield enough food to regularly feed hundreds of people, as well as inspire others to set up similar schemes. Her approach is proven: ‘we can all help because it only takes a seedling!’”
