The Carry a Bead Program

The Courage Rally celebrates our Carry a Bead program, which connects community members to provide connection and encouragement to children in the hospital coping with cancer and other serious illness.
 

Here’s how it works:

  • Each kit includes two matching beads.
  • You carry one bead during a meaningful activity or event as a symbol of encouragement.
  • You return one bead, along with a note of support, which is then given to a child receiving care through Beads of Courage.
  • You keep the matching bead as a lasting reminder of your compassionate act.
By participating in Carry a Bead, you become part of a community dedicated to providing hope, connection, and encouragement to brave kids. You can help honor their courage and tell their stories today with your support.
