Peace Crane

A very worthwhile initiative:

Please read, and join:

"Every year by August 15th, neatly folded paper cranes are grouped into strands of 1,000 and sent to Hiroshima's Peace Memorial Park as a symbol and a wish for world peace. They hang proudly outside in the Children's Peace Monument, mere feet away from the epicenter of the atomic bomb in Hiroshima, Japan.
Myspace from every corner of the globe has joined forces in hopes of sending virtual paper cranes to the already 10 million due to arrive this year. Post a picture of a crane you have made or just a crane found here on this page to send your wishes for a world living in peace.
Please add THE PEACE CRANE as your friend and leave a crane in the comments to form, what we hope, to be the world’s biggest wish for peace."

The text wasn't written by me, but it's very self-explanatory.
