MOSES LAKE - Who would have thought a small origami crane could represent a large clothing donation for struggling children?

The creative idea, spurred by kid's clothing company OshKosh B'Gosh, is doing exactly that with the help of Moses Lake High School students.

For each crane made, up to a total of 50,000, OshKosh B'Gosh donates clothing to Japanese children. 

Moses Lake students made cranes Friday to aid Japanese children impacted by the nation's earthquakes, tsunami and nuclear disaster.

Led by advisor Heather Whittall, honor society students helped facilitate teaching other students how to make the cranes.

The cranes were later photographed as proof and posted on the company's Facebook page, www.facebook.com/oshkoshbgosh.

Participating honor society members were: Brandon Hansen, Grace Hochstatter, Ashley Donaldson, Sara Oord, Lincoln Fish, Tanya Renteria, Kenton Dow, Kimberly Bakker, Kelsie Grant, Cortney Radocaj, Katnna Ulnick, K.C.lyn Hofstetter, Nicole Heroux, Mylee Sainsbury, Sam Calder, Ben Shoemake, Daicy Abel, Heidi Palmer, Liza Bruneel, Colby Happer, Taylor Ballard, Rianne Jones, Brian Da Ponte, Annalise Odegaard, Micayla Strickland, Hannah Kersey, Alyssa Daynovich, Levi Huddelston, Brennen Smith, Shawndra Cosper, Kyra Burns, Natalia Tomy, Jenny Hassan, Will Monlux, Courtney Kunjara, Rhiannon Willmonth and Alexie Washburn.
