Charity Partners
She gives...
Giving back to the community and supporting organizations that serve women and children is what Sandy Rueve, creator of She Beads®, is most passionate about. "Our philanthropic efforts fulfill our mission to touch people deeply through our unique works of art" explains Sandy. Through partnerships with selected charities, She Beads creates beautiful beads to represent each charitable cause. These special beads are part of The Charity Bead Collection ™.
"Each charity partner has been selected because their cause has touched our hearts. Our purpose is not just to donate the proceeds, but to become an advocate for education, to increase awareness, and connect people with similar experiences," says Sandy. Whether she is a patient, a survivor, a nurse or a family member, these powerful beads may have different meanings for each woman. They may be a token of encouragement, a sign of hope, a symbol of awareness or a remembrance. She Beads donates a portion of the proceeds from The Charity Bead Collection to the designated charities.
The Charity Bead Collection
Pink Ribbon Beads™
Because more women need to be aware of the risks of breast cancer, She Beads has created a special line of Pink Ribbon Beads. As part of our Charity Bead Collection, Pink Ribbon Beads create awareness and raise money to support young women with breast cancer. For online purchases which include a pink ribbon, the Pink Ribbon Girls receive 10% of the proceeds to aid their efforts to educate and inspire others to grow and live beyond breast cancer.
Pink Ribbon Girls are committed to helping young women diagnosed with breast cancer by creating a support network of survivors through personal contact as well as the Internet. For more information visit www.pinkribbongirls.org
Teal Ribbon Beads™
Awareness and early detection are the best methods of battling ovarian cancer. To aid in the fight against this devastating disease, our Charity Beads Collection includes Teal Ribbon Beads. The Chicago Ovarian Cancer Alliance (COCA) receives 10% of the proceeds for internet orders from this special line of She Beads. Every purchase of Teal Ribbon Beads not only helps promote ovarian cancer awareness, but also support patients and their families as they face the long struggle ahead.
COCA provides support for women, families and friends living with ovarian cancer and also works to disseminate information on ovarian cancer, its risk factors, detection methods, and useful resources. In addition, COCA advocates for increased funding and supports research for early diagnosis and cure. For more information visit www.ovariancanceralliance.com.
Gold Ribbon Beads™
Despite amazing progress, cancer remains the leading cause of death by disease in children. This is why She Beads has added Gold Ribbon Beads to our Charity Bead Collection. With every purchase of Gold Ribbon Beads comes the gift of hope that one day there will be a cure for every child with cancer. CureSearch National Childhood Cancer Foundation receives 10% of all proceeds for internet purchases from the sale of Gold Ribbon Beads.
CureSearch represents the combined efforts of the Children's Oncology Group and the National Childhood Cancer Foundation, two organizations united by a common goal: finding a cure for childhood cancer through research, care, advocacy, and fund-raising. For more information visit www.curesearch.org.
Red Dress Beads™

We hope to help promote this awareness with the newest addition to The Charity Bead Collection, the Red Dress Beads. With every online purchase including Red Dress Beads, 10% of the proceeds will be donated to the American Heart Association.
Go Red For Women gives you the power to significantly reduce your risks. Red is the color for women and heart disease, and wearing red shows your commitment to this movement for the future health of all American women.
