Jewelers for Children Holiday Program 2020! September 22, 2020 (0 comments)

New York, NY--Jewelers for Children (JFC) is "thrilled to announce our 2020 Hope for the Holidays program!" says Executive Director David Rocha.

Rocha thanked Hallmark for sponsorship of this year’s program. "They have donated all the printing of the cards and envelopes so that all funds raised can go directly to help children in need.  This year’s cards come from art drawn by kids who have had their wishes granted through Make-A-Wish® America.  All cards feature the JFC logo, child artist information and the Hallmark crown logo."

Obviously 2020 presents a number of challenges moving forward. "This year has proven to be particularly challenging for all of us and many have had to be distant from friends and loved ones. What could be more appropriate than sending a special holiday greeting the traditional way, with an adorable card designed by a child?"

There are several ways to participate in the program:

Holiday Cards – Choose from three designs created by the children from Make-A-Wish. The cards allow you to customize your own special message that we will imprint for you.

Contribution Cards – (image below) Looking for the perfect way to honor your customers, vendors, employees and anyone else of importance to you?  For as little as $ 25.00 each, you can send cards letting folks know that a donation has been made in their name to JFC.  We will send you the cards to use for everyone on your list, or send your mailing list to us and we will take it from there.

Contribution Inserts – For use with your own cards, a specially designed JFC insert stating that a donation has been made in the recipient’s honor.  These are not customizable.  

Holiday Honor Program – Ask your customers and business associates to donate to JFC in lieu of sending you a traditional holiday gift.  

Rocha advises that jewelers plan their participation early to make the biggest impact and to insure that the cards are customized and available in time for the busy holiday season. 

"With your support, the jewelry industry has been able to donate nearly $57 million to children in need through JFC," he added.

For delivery prior to the holidays, all orders for custom imprints need to be received by December 16, 2020.
