Purpose of the project:



Put your name on a crane for $1 and support the relief efforts in Japan! If you would like to donate to the cause please see Ms. Lang or contact via email: jessica.lang@henhudschools.org.

The National Art Honor Society of Hendrick Hudson High School will be assembling 1,000 paper cranes in the HS main lobby after the sale in honor of the Japanese myth:

“Thousand Origami Cranes”
(千羽鶴, Sennenzuru)

An ancient Japanese legend that promises anyone who folds

a thousand origami cranes will be granted a wish by a crane.

The crane in Japan is considered a mystical creature, and is

said to live for a thousand years. 1,000 cranes is done when

someone has a wish, be it for peace, health or luck.
