Carry A Bead

WHAT IS CARRY A BEAD?

When you Carry a Bead, you share a meaningful place you’ve been or a memorable experience you’ve had with a child or teen in need of encouragement on a challenging treatment day. No moment is too big or small to carry with you.

The compassion, love, and positive energy you put into the bead will be passed on, along with a handwritten note, to a child or teen facing cancer or another serious illness.

These beads become part of a child or teen’s “strand of strength,” serving as powerful reminders that we are all united in courage.
