We will be folding 1,000 paper cranes to send to friends in Japan. Do you have origami paper to donate? Can you teach others how to fold cranes on the day of the sale? If so, send me an email.
Our long list of accomplished collaborators includes folks from:

Last year, we raised $23,000 at our Bakesale for Haiti. Can we double, triple, or quadruple that number this time?
