Thank you to everyone who joined us to fold origami doves for our Doves 4 Peace project!

We’ll be stringing the colorful doves this week, and then delivering them to Minneapolis schools where they will be hung in classrooms.

Today was a good reminder that in times like these, we need to gather together to actively create the peace we want for the future. 🕊️ ✌🏼 ☮️
