My name is Makiko. I am a Japanese living in Madrid for a year. As you know, was a great earthquake in Japan on Friday 11 March. This earthquake has affected me a lot emotionally. Until late Friday morning I heard nothing of my people, did not know if they were alive or dead. Japan collapsed, and for hours I could not communicate with anyone. Although my family and friends finally came out unscathed, I still distressing to see much news coming from Japan. So I had an idea. The plan is that each person make an origami crane. To help, I made a video explaining how:
Then I would like each one became a picture crane and send it to me at this address:

In Japan we tend to make 1,000 cranes to be granted a wish. So I need your help to encourage my country and especially the people in the areas most affected by the disaster. Once we have the thousand cranes, are sent to our friends in northern Japan, so much help and encouragement they need.
Thank you for your interest and hope that, together with this effort, we can enforce this desire.
