What is Jewelers For Children?
JFC has been raising awareness and funds for children
whose lives have been devastated by catastrophic illness or life-threatening
abuse and neglect since 1999. Please join with the “Industry with a Heart" in
support of the work being done by JFC's charity partners. Since 1999, more than
$18 million has been invested in various programs to help this cause.
Jewelers For Children (JFC), formerly known as the
Jewelers Charity Fund for Children, was founded in 1999 by the U.S. jewelry
industry with the mission of helping children in need. Since its inception, JFC
has donated over $28 million to US and international programs benefiting
children whose lives have been affected by illness, abuse, or neglect. This
nationwide success is due to the continuing generosity of jewelry trade
organizations, jewelry and watch manufacturing companies, jewelry retail stores,
individual jewelry professionals, and jewelry consumers.
In 2006, JFC provided more than $ 4.5 million in
funding to charity partners, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Make-A-Wish
Foundation of America, the National CASA Association, the Elizabeth Glaser
Pediatric AIDS Foundation, Make-A-Wish Foundation International, the Jason
Program, the Association of Hole in the Wall Camps and the Starlight Starbright
Children's Foundation.
