Columbia Gem House (CGH) and the National Forest Foundation (NFF) partnered for the Pebbles to Pines Fundraiser, CGH's fourth annual online fundraising raffle. This online event featured nine jewelry pieces donated by designers participating in the MJSA Responsibly Sourced Design Challenge, sponsored by Columbia Gem House.

A total of 300 tickets were sold, raising $7,750, with an additional contribution from Columbia Gem House, bringing the final amount to $10,000 for NFF’s Reforestation Program. Together, we reached our goal of planting 10,000 trees! These will be planted in critical need areas, including forests in Oregon, Arizona, and Montana—states from which this year's featured gems were sourced.

Every Ticket Sold Donated to the National Forest Foundation

The National Forest Foundation (NFF) is the leading organization inspiring personal and meaningful connections to our National Forests, the centerpiece of America’s public lands.

Working on behalf of the American public, the NFF leads forest conservation efforts and promotes responsible recreation. They believe these lands, and all they provide, are an American treasure and are vital to the health of our communities.

Every ticket sold in this year's fundraiser was donated directly to the National Forest Foundation’s Reforestation Program, where every dollar raised plants one tree. This program focuses on replanting in critical need areas, including forests in Oregon, Arizona, and Montana—states from which this year's donated gems were sourced.

We are thrilled to share that with your help, we reached our goal of planting 10,000 trees! Our sincere thanks to everyone who participated.
