Annual Fundraiser Begins October 1st

Our annual online fundraising raffle returns October 1st with Cutting Toward Change.

While the raffle doesn’t officially begin for another week, you can get a first look at eight one-of-a-kind jewelry designs created by participants in the MJSA Responsibly Sourced Design Challenge. Each piece will be raffled off to raise funds for this year’s cause: raising awareness about silicosis while supporting efforts to address and prevent the disease in the gemstone and jewelry industry.

Every dollar from ticket sales will be donated to the Peoples Training & Research Centre (PTRC), a non-profit tirelessly working to address occupational safety and health issues in Gujarat, India, with a focus on silicosis.

To learn more about the project, get to know the organization behind this year’s fundraiser, and sign up to be notified when your favorite jewelry pieces are available to enter, visit our website today.

We'll be back next week once the raffle opens with all the details on how to enter.
