Project Peace Crane is a very meaningful way to respond to the tragedies around the world because many people including the youth on the Asian Central Community have felt detached, apathetic, or simply do not know what to do or how to respond to tragedies, disasters, and injustice around the world. This is one way to respond and reflect on the victims or pray for their families as you are folding each crane.Project Peace Crane is a fundraiser and awareness organization for the recent tragedies in Burma and China as well as future tragedies. We aim to highlight very meaningful causes and organizations that have been fighting for support and awareness as people can select causes to fold cranes and origami as gifts to the patients or victims of the China Earthquake, Burma Cyclone, Hepatitis B patients, Breast Cancer, AIDS, and many more causes. As people fold the peace cranes, they can reflect on the tragedy or say a prayer for each victim and their families. After two weeks, people from the Fuji Islands to China have collectively folded 2,421 peace cranes and raised $560 in pledges for 5,600 cranes that went directly to American Red Cross and World Vision relief efforts in Burma and China.
