I know this is last minute, but I only JUST found out about this. OshKoshB'Gosh, the children's clothing brand, is having a donation drive where they give an article of children's clothing to Japanese relief efforts for every origami crane they receive.

Would it be possible for me to organize something like a class to make paper cranes or at least have a station where people can drop off donated cranes? It would be a nice way to show that anime fans can do alot of good. Imagine if each attendee made just one crane--that could be thousands of cranes! Thousands of articles of clothing for so very little paper. We could even count them at the end of the weekend and announce the total. Or have a contest to see who can fold the most cranes in an hour or by the end of the panel with a prize.
Even if we could just get a table somewhere that would be great.
(I wasn't sure where to put this, but since one idea was an instructive panel I thought to put it here.)
