This site is the home page of the Thousand Crane Peace Network, which is based on the story of Sadako Sasaki. She was stricken with leukemia from the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Japan. While ill, she began to fold a thousand paper cranes for good health but died before she could finish. The Peace Network is coordinating a project to have as many bundles of 1000 cranes as possible transported to peace parks and monuments around the world. The goal is a million paper cranes by January 1, 2000.
