The Global Genes Project

The Global Genes Project is one of the leading rare and genetic disease patient advocacy organizations in the world. Did you know that more than 7,000 distinct rare diseases exist and approximately 80 percent are caused by faulty genes.

7000 Bracelets for Hope 

Through the 7000 Bracelets of Hope campaign, Global Genes collects unique bracelets made by jewelry designers, artists, crafters, church groups, girl scout troops and other volunteers to distribute them to families fighting rare and genetic diseases. Since launching the campaign in 2010, Global Genes has received thousands of unique blue themed bracelet designs made from everything from cut strips of recycled denim to vintage blue glass to turquoise stones. 

Now they have some great polymer ones to share!
