布雷兹希尔小学5岁的幼儿园小朋友凯特琳·哈迪还清了该校100多名学生的午餐欠款。

A 5-year-old student at an elementary school in Vista, California, collected enough money to pay off the negative lunch balances of 123 students at her school.

加利福尼亚州维斯塔市一所小学的一名5岁的学生筹集了足够的钱来偿还学校123名学生的午餐欠款。

Katelynn Hardee, a kindergartner at Breeze Hill Elementary School, overheard a parent say she was having difficulty paying for an after school program.

布雷兹希尔小学的幼儿园小朋友凯特琳·哈迪无意中听到一位家长说，她很难支付课后项目的费用。

"She started asking me a lot of questions and I just tried to explain to her that sometimes people aren't as fortunate and that we need to try to be kind and give when we can," Karina Hardee, Katelynn's mom, told CNN.

“她开始问我很多问题，我只是试着向她解释，有时候人们没有那么幸运，我们需要试着善良，在我们可以的时候给予，” 凯特琳的母亲卡丽娜·哈迪在接受CNN采访时表示。

So Katelynn decided to set up a stand on December 8. spending her Sunday selling hot cocoa, cider, and cookies. Katelynn and her mom donated the $80 collected, which went towards paying off the negative lunch balances of over 100 students at her elementary school.

于是，凯特琳决定在12月8日设立一个摊位，在周日出售热可可、苹果酒和饼干。凯特琳和她的母亲把筹集到的80美元捐给了慈善机构，这些钱被用来偿还她所在小学100多名学生的午餐欠款。

"Everybody is just so proud and happy and other students are already talking about ways they can also make a difference," said Breeze Hill Principal Lori Higley. "It goes to show that even one small, kind act from a 5-year-old can mean the difference for someone in their life."

布雷兹希尔中学校长洛里·希格利说:“每个人都很自豪、很开心，其他学生也开始讨论如何让自己变得与众不同。”“这表明，对一个5岁的孩子来说，即使是一个小小的、善意的举动，也可能意味着他们生活中的不同。”

Katelynn's next goal is to raise enough money to pay off not only all the negative lunch balances at Breeze Hill, but the "thousands of negative accounts" at schools in the Vista Unified School District, Hardee said.

哈迪(凯特琳的母亲)说，凯特琳的下一个目标是筹集足够的资金，不仅要偿还布雷兹希尔所有的负的午餐余额，还要偿还维斯塔联合学区学校的“数千个负账户”。

To help in her new mission, other students and staff at Breeze Hill will host a hot cocoa and baked goods stand on Saturday to raise more money to pay off negative school lunch accounts at the school.

为了完成她的新任务，布里兹希尔学校的其他学生和工作人员将在周六举办一个热可可和烘焙食品摊位，以筹集更多的资金来支付学校的午餐费用。

After all the accounts in the entire district have been paid off, Katelynn will then use the money raised to help support school programs which will be removed due to budget cuts.

在整个地区的所有账户都还清之后，凯特琳将把筹集到的资金用于支持由于预算削减而被取消的学校项目。

"It's all about kindness. Especially this holiday season, and with everything that's going on in the world, we just need a little bit more kindness out there," Hardee said.

“这都是出于善意。尤其是这个假期，以及世界上发生的一切，我们只需要多一点善意，”哈迪说。
