WHY I GIVE BACK
The little Caribbean island these charms represent inspired my jewelry-making journey & is where it all began. I was a teacher in Austin, TX, before returning to the island of my parents. I found a lot of fulfillment working with students at the local public schools when I was back in Texas, but as a jeweler living in Puerto Rico I had to find other ways of giving back, which I've been able to do through the sale of my jewelry.
THE CURRENT CAMPAIGN
Back in September 2019 I started selling the PR CHARM FOR CHARITY necklace. Since then, different organizations & non-profits doing important work on the island of Puerto Rico have received a portion of sales from these special charms.
Our 2022 campaign for the PR CHARMS FOR CHARITY is for RESCATE PLAYAS BORINQUEN, a non-profit organization dedicated to the restoration and protection of natural resources and outdoor recreational areas around Punta Borinquen in Aguadilla. Their vision is to create a northwestern ecological & recreational corridor for the island. They do amazing work & I’m happy to support their efforts & all they do in one of my favorite corners of this island!
With this campaign, and thanks to all of you that made a PR Charm purchase, we donated $830 to Rescate Playas Borinquen.
