The Jewelers For Children

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 $ 30 million to programs benefiting children whose lives have been affected by illness, abuse, or neglect through our charity partners St. Jude Children's Research Hospital®, the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of America, the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation and the National CASA Association. JFC also provides support to the Make-A-Wish Foundational International, Autism Speaks, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and the Santa-America Fund. The nationwide success of these donation efforts has in large part been due to the continuing generosity of the jewelry industry including jewelry trade organizations, jewelry and watch manufacturing companies, jewelry retail stores, and individual jewelry professionals.

Thanks to the marvel of electronic commerce, the growing interest and generosity of jewelry consumers is adding even more good to the fundraising efforts. The JFC Charity Module is free with all IDS websites and includes a $1 donation box at every checkout giving consumers the opportunity to contribute to this wonderful cause.
