Brilliant Earth Non-Profit Fund
We are helping communities in gemstone regions recover from abuses in the past and create a thriving jewelry trade for the future.

Brilliant Earth is proud to dedicate 5% of our profits toward education and community development. Historically, the jewelry trade has incurred great social and environmental cost. We feel strongly that luxury goods should not promote such injustice, and that the communities that produce the products should benefit from them. Through our partnerships with established, on-the-ground efforts, we try to rectify past injustices of the jewelry trade and help communities develop the skills needed to manage their natural resources effectively.
Our overall objective is to invest in long-term community development in regions that can support a self-sustaining jewelry-based economy. To achieve this, we combine our understanding of best practices in the jewelry trade with research-based funding efforts. Through our ongoing initiatives, we're helping shape a rewarding and self-sufficient future for families who depend on the jewelry trade.
