The Girl Scouts of Walnut Creek Service Unit are proud to announce
our 20th Annual "Pink Beads of Love" bracelet project, in
partnership with the 2025 Komen Austin MORE THAN PINK Walk and the
Breast Cancer Resource Center. This event is open to Girl Scouts of
all ages, friends, and family!
Participants make bracelets and
write notes to breast cancer patients and survivors. This is also an
opportunity to learn more about breast cancern prevention.
Why
Pink Beads of Love?
Juliette Gordon Low, who founded the Girl
Scout movement in the United States, died of breast cancer on January
17, 1927. To honor her memory and to pay tribute to today's breast
cancer patients and survivors, attendees will assemble beaded
bracelets which will be handed out at the October 26th, 2025, Komen
Austin MORE THAN PINK Walk and any leftovers will go to the Breast
Cancer Resource Center.
Breast cancer patients and survivors are
thrilled to receive the bracelet and inspiring personal note from the
girl who made it! Our goal is to assemble a minimum of 200 bracelets
this year.
