If you've made & donated, read this
Beads of Courage posted a link to this article on their FB page, and asked me to post it here too.
The mom of this cutie thanks those who have made glass beads to donate, and it sure brought a lump to my throat and made me want to continue donating beads for sure!
This was the post, click the link to read the article:
"Thank you to Beading Daily for part II of your post on Beads of Courage and thank you to the Boggess family for sharing your story of COURAGE!

About 2 years ago I 1st heard of Beads of Courage through this youtube video.

After watching that video, tears rolled down.
At that time I had no idea that today I'd actually be making these little treasures. Since I've been torching for the last month or so, getting a little better, and watching my bead pile grow I now have a stash of magical glass goodies for these Brave Warriors!
I need to read over the requirements for donation and get a package together.
PPP for the kids!

And on the website you'll also find a donation form to print & fill out that you send with your beads.
I love sending off a box of beads!

Thank you so much for posting that link. It always touches me to know that what I do matters to someone that I don't know in person, but maybe in spirit.
