Craft paper cranes for Japan

According to old Japanese traditions, anyone who folds 1,000 paper cranes will be granted a wish. In response to the devastating earthquake and tsunami, DoSomething.org is sponsoring a Paper Cranes for Japan initiative. They want to collect 100,000 photos of origami cranes folded by youth across the globe to illustrate 100 wishes for relief and healing for those affected by the natural disaster.

 

The task is simple. You can either find a photo of an origami paper crane online or you can fold your own paper crane, snap a quick pic and upload that photo to the Paper Cranes for Japan Facebook page.

Go big: Think about how many wishes you could send if you got your homeroom class, your entire grade, even your whole school involved. All you need is paper and a camera (or camera phone). Whatcha waitin’ for?
