WELCOME
Welcome to the Jewelers for Children (JFC) Heroes for Hope Employee Giving Toolkit. We are excited and grateful for your company’s support of JFC.
Our goal with this toolkit is to help inspire your employees to become champions of the JFC mission through the Heroes for Hope Employee Giving program. For as little as $1 a week, your employees can become heroes to children in need. Through payroll deductions or electronic pledging, the campaign offers simple ways to give at every level.
This toolkit will provide recommendations and tips for how you can engage your employees in this meaningful program.Since 1999, Jewelers for Children has donated more than $40 million to help children who are the victims of catastrophic illness or life-threatening abuse and neglect. JFC has reached this goal working with our vital charity partners: St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, the National CASA Association, Make-A-Wish America®, and the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation.
The more you promote Heroes for Hope within your company, and encourage your employees to become JFC supporters, the more life-saving support you will be providing for thousands of children who need your help. By encouraging your employees to support JFC through Heroes for Hope, you will be part of the U.S. Jewelry industry’s mission to help vulnerable children realize their full potential, in everything they do.
