Welcome to Team Awareness Beads: Mercedes Caskey and Awareness Beads GA!

Awareness Beads is BRANCHING OUT!

That's right, when we re-open this spring, there will be TWO branches of Awareness Beads!

Jordan and I are still in charge and we hold down the fort here in Goldsboro, at the MAIN BRANCH, and we take care of all the paperwork and stuff, but our friend Mercedes is now the Main Beader for the branch she will run, AWARENESS BEADS GA!

Awareness Beads GA is our daughter branch located in Georgia. All branches will share this blog, and share posts and updates here and on the main Facebook page, but Awareness Beads GA also has their own Facebook page.

We will stay connected by, as I mentioned earlier, all using this blog, and by have Mercedes (Mercy) share all of Awareness Beads GA's Facebook posts on the main Facebook for Awareness Beads as well.

The main Facebook for Awareness Beads is the NC branch. Jordan and I are the "mother branch", because we originally started Awareness Beads, and are the Founder and President.

Any other branches started (like Awareness Beads GA) will have a "Main Beader" (Mercy) and "Assistant Beaders" if they so chose.

So far, Awareness Beads GA is the only daughter branch, but keep a look out! There may be more in the future!



So, that all being said....


INTRODUCING THE "MAIN BEADER" of AWARENESS BEADS GA, MERCEDES CASKEY!

Hello.

My name is Mercedes Caskey. I’m nineteen and have a small family that includes my husband and infant son. I’m very friendly, though admittedly a bit shy at first.

I have had a couple cousins with cancer, and a close cousin with juvenile diabetes. I saw that a good friend of mine from North Carolina started this organization and, after checking it out and talking to her, I was touched deeply. Her goal and heart is amazing. I want to help her and her husband, as well as the families they help. 

The branch I’m opening is located in Lawrenceville, Georgia. Our mascot is Magnolia. She is very special to me and I think she is the perfect mascot.
