It’s HOLIDAY SEASON and we won’t be able to accept cranes until January. Thanks!

There is an old Japanese tradition that 1,000 origami paper cranes will bring good luck, including good health. Our goal is to provide boxes of 1,000 cranes to cancer patients and anyone with serious physical or mental health needs. The 1,000 cranes bring hope and uplift spirits. We've been doing this for many years, but we need help in making cranes.

AND...if you know of a person who would benefit from receiving a GIFT of 1,000 origami paper cranes, please send an e-mail with a name and mailing address, and we will send your dear friend or family member 1,000 paper cranes of hope and healing.

DONATE: There is no charge or any fees, although we now accept donations through PayPal or Zelle at kdgrinfeld@gmail.com. Thank You!

Please email for mailing address to send cranes, and include a note with your NAME and RETURN ADDRESS to:

Deanine's Cranes, Part 2



Deanine's Cranes were shipped today and will be delivered tomorrow. Aunt Carol did an amazing job of folding cranes and organizing the effort, assisted by Cousin Scott. They came out so beautiful! Check out the pics! I love the basket and the interesting colors and textures of the paper.



The cranes will arrive just as Deanine is starting her treatment. Deanine, we hope these cranes bring you good luck and health and happiness. Every time you look at them, remember that we are all thinking about you and wishing you well.

Deanine loved her Cranes! Julie thanks so much for all your help and the wonderful idea.
We all put our love and best wishes into the basket and sent them off and I believe in my heart they will make a difference!
I sent out a small basket of cranes to Deanine's daughter Alexa today so she could have some of her own good luck cranes and that her moms cranes could stay together.
I am working on more cranes for the next person on the list and will send them up to you as soon as I have a good amount.
Aunt Carol
