For those with their extra cranes lying around...
I ran into this cool article:
The Crane Chandelier Project |
January 2011
Worldwide
Let your commitment become part of something extraordinary.
The Wedding Co. is building a chandelier from thousands of origami cranes which have come from engaged couples around the world.
The goal is to collect 10,000 of these peaceful tokens of love by January 2011 when The Wedding Co. will celebrate its 10th anniversary. The final creation will be a visual representation of a worldwide community of engaged and newly married couples - a community that already shares so many invisible ties. Each crane will represent one couple?s leap of love, commitment and patience.
For each crane we receive, we will donate ?50 to cancer research.
How cool to be part of something so big! 10,000 past, present, and future brides! I think I might have to make one just so I can send one in! 
Here's the link if anyone is interested (you'll have to scroll down a little bit to get to the actual article - I think it's the second one on the page):
