Students at Trumble Park school are making paper origami cranes this week. The art project has special meaning behind it.

All the cranes constructed will be sent to the Brain Injury Association of Nebraska. In March, an estimated 36,000 will be displayed at the state capital building to recognize Brain Injury Day.

Amy Lemoff, Trumble Park Principal says it was not easy to do the origami, "It has been a little more difficult than we thought learning to make the cranes but we had some parents come in and help us and again some upper grade students have taken to this project and there going around to the younger grades to help"

The 36,000 cranes made by school children represents the number of Nebraskan's living with a disability due to a brain injury.
