Most of the beads on the color guide are purchased in bulk from commercial sources. we use far too many of these to expect the bead artists to keep up. We've got about 10,000 children enrolled right now and it adds up to a monumental number of beads. What we really need from bead artists are Act of Courage, Butterfly and Purple Heart beads. Act of Courage beads can be anything that you want to make and donate. Let your ideas run free and try out new ideas. You never know what's going to appeal to the imagination of a child. The children choose their own special Act of courage beads from a selection of donated beads. Purple Hearts go to the children who make it through treatment and are cured. Butterflies go to the parents of children who don't make it through to a cure.
