Apologies, apologies, apologies for the lapse in updates since before the weekend, it has been a very busy week (as you can see by our sad number of cranes produced). However, we have raised more than 70% of our goal... we almost have £1000 for The British Red Cross Japan Tsunami Appeal! And you will notice that the crane 'deficit' numbers are slowly rising (or lowering, whichever is correct in this context).
In an effort to raise the £287.55 we still need to reach our goal we will be hosting a stand/table at the upcoming Heeley City Farm Spring Fayre on Saturday, April 2nd (yes, that is this Saturday) from 11:00am until 4:00pm. Are you excited?
If you are in the Sheffield area (or feel like going for a drive, or for a sail, or for a flight, or for a... etc) then why not stop by to see us? You can make a donation and take home a crane made by us, or we can teach you (and your family and friends) how to make your own origami crane, or if you already know how to do origami you can help us to make the 304 (and 9/20) origami cranes we have yet to make before reaching the 1000 goal (senbazuru); as I am sure we will reach £1000 before too long.
We will even have handout instructions for you to take home, so you can continue your origami skills at home (and for an additional donation, why not take some origami paper home with you to practice). If you are not in the Sheffield area, or if you cannot make this wonderful event (there will be many baby animals there, as it is Spring, need I say more) you can still help us out, by spreading the word!
There will be a great many things to see and do, aside from making origami cranes and helping us raise money. For more details, you can see their poster here or you can send us an e-mail. :)
