题目内容:
Two weeks ago, a 5-year-old girl named Sunshine Oelfke emptied out her piggy bank (存钱罐)onto the living room floor and immediately started counting. Her grandmother, Jackie Oelfke, thought she was playing as she carefully lined up the coins, but then she saw the girl put the coins into a plastic bag and place it in her backpack.
"That aroused my curiosity," Jackie told CBS News. "Nobody messes with the piggy bank." After observing Sunshine at work a few minutes longer, Jackie decided to find out why the little girl broke into her savings.
"What are you doing with that money?" Jackie asked her granddaughter.
"I'm taking it to school," Sunshine replied. The little girl finally stated the real reason why she needed the money. "I'm going to take it for milk money. My friend Layla doesn't get milk-her mom doesn't have milk money and I do."
Jackie's heart melted at Sunshine's words. Choked with strong feelings, Jackie held her sweet granddaughter tightly in her arms.
Last week,Jackie and Sunshine met with her teacher, Rita Hausher,and handed her the﹩30 the kindergartner had saved. There are 20 kids in Sunshine's class and about half don't get milk. It costs ﹩0.45 a carton(纸盒).The total adds up to about﹩180 a month for every child in the class to have milk every day.
After dropping Sunshine off at school, Jackie posted a tearful video on Facebook to explain her granddaughter's plan. To her surprise, dozens of people offered to donate toward the cause. Within a week, Jackie raised more than ﹩1,000. Now every student in Sunshine's class can get free milk for the rest of the year.
Jackie said Sunshine doesn't see her kind act as a big deal. She was just trying to look out for her friends. "She doesn't understand the effect she's brought about," Jackie said. "But now she knows she can do whatever she puts her mind to."
