Forever Home

We are so happy to have a Forever Home to welcome our extended “BEAD FAMILY.”

With the generous support of our donors, we are officially moving into our forever home on Dec 27th!

Beads of Courage
3301 N. 1st Avenue
Tucson, AZ 85719

Please remember to mail any carried beads, art cards, friendship bracelets, or other donations intended to support children and teens through Beads of Courage to our new Forever Home address.

UPDATE: – 12/11/24 – We officially moved one row of beads & storage racks from the warehouse to the Beads of Courage Forever Home! Only 5 more rows to go! And an attic and furniture! Thank you to everyone that made our Forever Home possible!! It’s going to be amazing to have all our beads and program materials under one roof surrounded by the positivity and love of our dedicated volunteers and staff.

We have room for lots more beads! Beads that we need to get manufactured before the New Year! Thank you for considering a donation to fill our Forever Home with beads! A $25 year-end gift provides 500 beads, 500 moments of courage to honor in a tangible and visual way. You can help fill our new bead home with beads!

First Photos From Our Forever Home

We are incredibly grateful to welcome Beth, our CEO, who traveled all the way from Pittsburgh, PA! It was such a joyful moment to hand her the keys to the Beads of Courage Forever Home. Together, we celebrated with a toast, placed a Forever Home Heart to hold the love of this space, brought flowers as a symbol of remembrance, and joined our dear friend Rebecca in a healing ceremony to mark this important transition for our mission.

Gribbon, our Founder and Chief Mission Officer, was joined by her brothers, Tom and Mike, as we began preparations to clean and ready the Forever Home. Every bead in this space will tell a story of courage, honor, and hope. Here we go—onto this exciting new chapter!

Coming Jan 2025!
