Thank you for helping me help these organizations. It feels so good to be able to find ways to give back. Love you Vermont!

I first made these back in 2011 when hurricane Irene tore through Vermont. The devastation that it caused was overwhelming. The only comfort in the wake of the storm was how the Vermont community came together. Everyone was helping out. I wanted to create a piece that I could sell to generate some money for the relief effort. I didn't want to just create a generic design though, I yearned to make something meaningful. Then it came to me, my signature "patch" design would work so well here. Vermont has been broken, torn up but it's being patched together, healed. The beauty is in the binding. I stopped making these in 2012 but I'm bringing them back due to all the flooding and happening around our state.

100% of the profits after the cost of producing these pendants will be donated to various Vermont Relief Organizations, Farms and small businesses.

My Body My Choice Line to Raise Money for Planned Parenthood

Shocked. Outraged. Angry. Always leaning into “What can I do”? What can I do to contribute to the cause? Well this is what I do. We will have these in Sterling or Brass to raise money for Planned Parenthood as well as other agencies as things unfold. I’m relieved to live in Vermont and once again so disappointed in our country. How can this be 2022? How can we still be fighting for basic rights? How can this be the thing happening after over 2 years of pandemic life? We should be so much further along as a society, as humanity. We've raise $3225 so far. 🖤

Sunflower Line to Raise Money for UNICEF for Ukraine Children

I made tiny pendants and earrings in sterling, brass or gold vermeil to raise money for UNICEF, they are on the ground in Ukraine, helping children. Children are the least responsible for war in Ukraine, but they suffer most from its consequences. Our donation to UNICEF will ensure that Ukraine's children have access to safe water, nutrition, health care, education and protection. We raised $4940!

Dissent Line to Raise Money for the ACLU

Soon after Ruth Bader Ginsburg's passing, I created this design based on her famous Dissent Collar. We've raised over $11,000 so far for the ACLU through the sail of these pieces! These are currently available in my shop in Sterling or brass, in 2 sizes, as pendants or earrings.

A portion of every sale goes to Onetreeplanted.org, I've donated $3800 over the past few years!
