“Jewelers for Children (JFC) was founded in 1999 by the U.S. jewelry industry with the mission of helping children in need. Since its inception, JFC has donated more than $64 million to programs benefiting children who have experienced social, physical or psychological trauma. JFC supports efforts to help children reach their full potential. We recognize that children who face adversity have unique needs, and addressing these needs is crucial to minimizing the negative impacts of their experiences. JFC is committed to funding initiatives that empower children to thrive, allowing them to grow, learn, and embrace who they are, no matter their challenges. Please note, JFC only funds organizations serving children nationally. This means grantees should be doing work in multiple states and regions.”
