Cranes for Comfort Art Installed at Belmont Village Senior Living

Local girl scout’s gold award project took months of volunteer time to make 1,000 origami cranes into a beautiful piece of art that was installed at Belmont Village Senior Living Rancho Palos Verdes on August 16. High school senior Hana Meroth who created this program relies on a team of volunteers to complete and string them together. Over the past year, Belmont Village Assisted Living residents have been volunteering their time, twice a month to make this project come to life. The art promises to bring happiness and eternal good luck according to Japanese legend.
