If you’re familiar with Beads of Courage, you already know about our mission to support the most courageous kids on Earth – children coping with cancer and other serious illnesses. Now, it’s time to tell the whole world about our work and showcase YOU, our honored members, families, clinicians, supporters, donors and friends.
World Beads of Courage Day (WBOCD) takes place during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, which is also our Bead Challenge month! We have many activities planned for September and invite you to be a part of this Global Celebration of Courage.
On September
15, Carry a Bead and post a pic on social media using the hashtag
#beadsofcourage! Let’s raise awareness of Beads of Courage and
all the amazing warriors we support! If
your photo includes a Beads of Courage member, please have them wear their
beads if possible!
