Jewelers Relief Fund
Help jewelers who are hardest hit by the Southern California Wildfires. Please consider donating -- any amount, large or small, will help.
DONATE

Jewelers of America and Diamond Council of America have created this Fund to collect donations for retail jewelry stores and jewelry manufacturers whose businesses were damaged by wildfires in the greater Los Angeles area. It is our mission to help jewelers in times of success and distress, and we believe we are stronger together. Let's band together as a jewelry community and help fellow jewelers in their recovery efforts.

Your support is appreciated in our effort to lessen the burden of our fellow jewelers who may have a long road of recovery ahead. All funds raised will be dispersed directly to affected businesses in the jewelry industry.
