A Simple Gift
Vivian, a gifted educator at Kahala Elementary School, is a passionate advocate for sustainability and local agriculture. She founded "Give It Fresh Today" (G.I.F.T) at the farmer's market at Kapiolani Community College to provide an opportunity for weekly shoppers and home gardeners with a convenient way to donate locally grown fruits and vegetables to those in need. Recognized by Pacific Business News as one of Hawai'i's "40 Under 40," and the Honolulu Star Advertiser as one of "10 Who Made a Difference" in 2010, she enriches the lives of children with service learning and origami, is a practitioner of the Feldenkrais Method, and enjoys swing dance.



In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
