We put the word out, prayed and started collecting those BEADS!  They started rolling in FAST during January,2003 and continue to "roll in".

 

 

NEWS FLASH-  read press release

We had our first "Sorting Party at Strings Restaurant on April 3, 2003. We were able to begin creating BRACELETS! 

Nine volunteers (some were camera-shy)  put together 168 sets of beads for stringing in Ethiopia during the training phase in June, 2003
