I devised this "Cranes of Thanks" project because I love origami, working with children, and the "heroes" that defend our country! I am teaching youth to fold paper origami cranes which will be placed on a coloring page with a letter on the back to be sent to our soldiers overseas. This project will continue until we have completed 1,000 Cranes of Thanks! All of the supplies have generously been funded by DoSomething.org.

The Origami Crane
Origami cranes are symbols of peace, honor, loyalty, and strength.
