Courage Crew - Carry a Bead Kit - Artist Exclusive by Donna Conklin 2026

Hearts United Carry a Bead (Limited Edition)

Celebrate the Year of the Horse with this special Hearts United Carry a Bead, a limited-edition design handmade exclusively for Beads of Courage.

Select from Red, Speckled, or Turquoise Hearts! 

These beads were commissioned by Beads of Courage and created by featured artist Donna Conklin, crafted with care to support children and teens coping with serious illness.

When you support Carry a Bead with this set, you will receive two handcrafted beads:

• Keep one bead as a symbol of the difference you’re making.
• Send one bead back to us with a thoughtful note to encourage a child or teen coping with serious illness on a tough treatment day.

Many children in our program experience major surgeries, difficult procedures, and long hospital stays — sometimes far from loved ones. A bead and a caring message can offer comfort and connection during challenging moments.

Carry a Bead is a program that helps Beads of Courage continue providing encouragement and support to children and families around the world.

Thank you for being part of this mission of hope and healing for courageous kids!
