Your Donations Matter

For more than a decade, the Peace Crane Project has connected millions of children in more than 150 countries, empowering them to build empathy, literacy, and global friendship through the simple act of folding and exchanging origami peace cranes.

This entire global movement has been created on an extremely small budget — and yet classrooms around the world continue to ask for more resources, translations, and support.

In March 2026, a unique moment will arrive when the United States Postal Service releases the new International Peace Stamp, featuring a crane folded by our founder. While this event is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Peace Crane Project, the public visibility surrounding it will help bring new attention to our mission.

To prepare for increased demand from teachers and schools in 2026, we are raising vital funds to strengthen our foundation and build a sustainable future.

⭐️ Your Gift Makes a Direct, Immediate Difference
