Ten students met at lunch on Monday, March 14 and began "Cranes for a Cause" to help support the earthquake relief efforts in Japan. |
The students met during lunch on Monday and quickly decided on a fundraiser based on the ancient Japanese legend that maintains that anyone who folds a thousand paper cranes will be granted a wish or the ability to recover from accident or injury. The students decided that they will fold a 1,000 paper cranes, which will be displayed in the school’s front window.
