Q: How does it work? A: There are two ways to add beads, - it's fun and easy: • choose individual beads or sponsor a complete panel • dedicate the beads to your favorite people • we add these beads to the necklace • we enter your dedications into the "Journal" • each individual bead is $1.00, or find the price for each complete panel here • we give $1.00 per bead to charity Q: How long is the Neverending Necklace right now? A: Click on the Neverending Necklace logo anywhere on the site, and you'll see! The length is updated frequently, so check often. Q: What is this project really about? A: The Neverending Necklace is a fun and meaningful way to remember someone special. At the same time, all the proceeds from these dedications will be used to help established charities. The business name "Love & Peace Project" was chosen to reflect on the global needs for love and peace. Each bead represents someone you lovingly remember and helps visualize the coexistence of all shapes, colors, material and origin, all on the same string. It is the one project to which anyone in the world can contribute. The Neverending Necklace knows no borders and it knows no time. A never ending string of love and peace going around the world! Q: How did the Necklace get started? A: The Neverending Necklace was started after the publication of a newspaper article in the "Palm Beach Post" which featured the Vetsville "Cease Fire House", a non-profit organization helping Veterans in need. Q: How much money do I have to spend to participate? A: You can dedicate just one bead and spend as little as $1.00 for an entry into the Journal and your free link. Q: Can I enter anyone for a dedication? A: Yes! Anyone can be entered you wish to dedicate beads to, however we reserve the right to refuse entries that are offensive. Q: Which organization is behind this? A: The Love & Peace Project. It is non-political and non-religious and it is privately owned. (The owner considers herself merely a guardian of the Neverending Necklace.) Q: Is this a non-profit organization? A: No. It is a business that supports itself by selling ad space to sponsors and by offering merchandise in its gift shop. The $1.00 per bead from dedications goes 100% to the approved charities. Become a Sponsor Now! Q: Do I have to send in beads with my money? A: No, but if you would like to donate beads, charms or even broken jewelry to be used in the Project, we will happily accept them and enter your gift into the Journal as well. Q: When will the Necklace be finished? A: As soon as all arms and hostilities in this world are laid to rest. The Project's first goal is an entry into the "Guinness Book of World Records", after that we aim for it to go around the globe. The Necklace will reach through space and time: it will keep growing even generations from now. Q: Do you really count every bead on the necklace? A: Actually, we understate the amount. We count each and every dedicated bead, but the real amount of beads is much larger: the correct number of beads is the given number multiplied by 13. Why? Each bead is separated by 12 smaller beads to show off the individual beads better. Q: Where can I dedicate beads? A: There are three ways to do it: go to the "Add Beads Now!" page and follow directions, it's easy. Or find a store near you where you can choose beads and dedicate them, click here for store locations. Or you may want to come and see the Neverending Necklace in person at any of the events. Find the event calendar on the home page.
