Compassion

We invest in meaningful causes, funding programs around the world that create lasting change for mining communities and beyond.

We care about the health, safety, and wellbeing of both people and the planet. Through our grants and initiatives, we strive to improve livelihoods and restore mining regions throughout our supply chain. We also support domestic causes that matter to our employees by making donations to organizations addressing issues important to our team and local communities.

The Brilliant Earth Foundation

In 2021, we started the Brilliant Earth Foundation* to further the impact we’ve made from the very beginning. Since then, we’ve donated $2 million to our Foundation to improve our communities, from the areas where our diamonds, gems, and precious materials are mined to the communities where our teams and customers live.

*The Brilliant Earth Foundation is a corporate advised fund with Silicon Valley Community Foundation.

OUR FOUNDATION FOCUS

RESPONSIBLE SOURCING

RESPONSIBLE SOURCING

We are committed to improving the lives of small-scale miners by helping them get paid fairly for their work and rehabilitating lands previously destroyed by mining.

SOCIAL IMPACT

SOCIAL IMPACT

We lend our voice and support to causes that make a difference. From healthcare access and mental health services to global disaster relief, we are proud to give towards building healthier, more resilient communities.

CLIMATE ACTION

CLIMATE ACTION

We’re always looking for ways to protect our planet, from reforestation and clean energy to funding mercury-free mining and ocean conservation and cleanup.

THE POWER OF
PARTNERSHIPS

We partner with impactful non-profits because cultivating collaborations amplifies the difference we can make.

Honoring a Life and Legacy of Hope

Our partnership was designed to celebrate and advance Dr. Jane Goodall's legacy. Each limited-edition collection reflects our shared dedication to environmental stewardship and carries Dr. Goodall's enduring message of hope and peace.

For every purchase, Brilliant Earth will donate 10% of net proceeds to the Jane Goodall Legacy Foundation Fund to directly support vital conservation work, education programs, and research.

Pure Earth

Mining with mercury can contaminate ecosystems and seriously harm the health of miners and their communities, so we work with Pure Earth to train small-scale gold miners to mine without this harmful chemical and rehabilitate rainforests. Our 4-year grant helped the first and only four gold mines in the Amazon become Fairmined certified, plant 7,580 new native saplings, and reforest 4.75 hectares in the Peruvian Amazon.

Fairmined – Alliance for Responsible Mining

As members of the Alliance for Responsible Mining (ARM), we're committed to creating positive impact in artisanal and small-scale mining communities worldwide. Through their Fairmined certification program, we ensure our gold is not only responsibly mined but that small-scale miners receive fair-trade pricing. This partnership goes beyond sourcing to transform livelihoods by supporting safer working conditions, environmental rehabilitation, and economic empowerment in mining communities.

Gem Legacy –
Kitarini Primary School

Through our partnership with Gem Legacy, we're proving that addressing hunger unlocks education. By providing daily meals, over 900 schoolchildren now attend school regularly and achieve significantly higher test scores. This partnership provides children in Tanzania's mining communities with the foundation they need to learn, grow, and build better futures.

Gem Legacy – Campus

The Brilliant Earth Foundation is supporting the construction of a campus in Tanzania. The Gem Legacy Campus will unite education, opportunity, and community under one roof, providing students from mining families with opportunities they need to transform their futures: housing, gemstone polishing training, college scholarship programs, and skilled trades education.

This isn't just about individual success. It's about reshaping communities. By equipping young people with sustainable career skills and higher education opportunities, the Campus and scholarship program will strengthen local economies and create lasting prosperity within Tanzania's gem-mining communities.

Moyo Gems - Kenya

Our grant to Pact supported the expansion of the Moyo Gems program from Tanzania into Kenya. This partnership directly empowers gemstone miners to control their own economic destinies by accessing fair market prices, building independent businesses, and eliminating exploitative middlemen.

Because we know that when women miners earn fair wages, entire communities thrive. The additional income strengthens families, funds children's education, and creates economic stability that ripples through local economies.
