About One Bead
One Bead is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that uses philanthropy as a platform for social emotional development in children under the age of 14. We help students believe in themselves by providing mentorship, education, and access to new opportunities through leadership programming. Students spend the majority of our program designing Action Plans describing how they would use $1,000 to make a difference locally. Two thirds of the way through programming, students pitch their ideas to peers. The group votes to select the winning idea and the entire class comes together to see that Action Plan through into fruition. Our students and the community they live in are better off as a result. One Bead’s mission is to prove that one student, just like one bead, can be a catalyst for change.

One Bead has grown tremendously over the past year. The organization is on track to double the size of its staff and is also hoping to continue to expand its Board –building upon the strong foundation set by six woman who have been instrumental in One Bead’s success to date. The Board is actively looking for leaders in the Greater Boston Area who, like Susan, are successful professionals interested in joining a team of dedicated change-makers.
