Hi Everyone:
Beads of Courage (www.beadsofcourage.org) is an organization that provides arts in medicine programs for children with serious illness. The children receive beads for coping with various operations and procedures. It helps them record, tell and own their story of courage.
You are invited to stop by my studio (32040 E. Side Drive) and see how glass beads are made and if possible make a donation to this worthy cause. You can sponsor a bead for a child in treatment ($5) or make a donation to this 501(c)(3) organization.
What you do is pick out a bead that I already made, donate your $5/bead and I will send the money and beads to the Beads of Courage program headquarters in Arizona to be distributed to the hospitals in the program.
The Program is a resilience-based intervention designed to support and strengthen children and families coping with serious illness. Through the program children tell their story using colorful beads as meaningful symbols of courage that commemorate milestones they have achieved along their unique treatment path. Please see www.BeadsofCourage.org for more information.
Open Studio is Tuesday, September 9, 11:30 A.M. TO 2 P.M. Phone 2205 if you have questions.
