Thank a Jeweler on JFC Day
September 03, 20
(IDEX Online) - The Jewelers for Children charity will celebrate its achievements - raising almost $57m to support kids - with a day of promotions and fundraising.
Its third annual JFC Day will be held on Saturday, 26 September, with charity partners rallying their local supporters to visit jewelers and say thank you.
"The pandemic has presented a host of issues not only for the jewelry industry, but for all of our charity partners as well," said Debra Puzio, JFC board chair.
"JFC Day presents a unique opportunity for all of us to come together and recognize that issues like childhood illness and abuse and neglect are still occurring and children remain a priority."
A planning guide for jewelers, including ideas on how to participate, as well as social media materials, sample emails, press releases and videos are available on the JFC website.
The financial services company Wells Fargo in support of the American Gem Society, has stepped up as the first sponsor of the 2020 event.
JFC raises funds for programs benefiting children whose lives have been affected by illness, abuse or neglect.
