Feel the Music! Frog Project

Thanks to the Feel the Music! 'Frog Project', families who lost a loved one on September 11th hand-painted over one hundred percussion frogs, in the hopes of connecting families in different countries and regions experiencing similar losses and grief. About half of the frogs were sent to "Asociacion 11-M" in Madrid, to be delivered to children affected by the 2004 train bombings. The remaining frogs were sent to childcare centers in New Orleans through "We Care New Orleans". read on
