Beads of Courage is grateful for the support of Toni Lynn Starr

Toni says, “I love the Beads of Courage organization. They are all over the world helping kids with serious illnesses, one bead at a time. I am so taken with their dedication and have seen firsthand the difference a single bead, or a string of thousands of beads, makes to these kids. This is the nonprofit organization that I am personally honored to represent as a Celebrity Ambassador, as we proudly partner our Beach Girl music venture with Beads of Courage.”
