Diamonds for Africa

James R. Jordan Foundation fundraiser to help build a hospital in Kenya for women and children

We invite you to join us in giving.

Hope.

Dignity.

Healing.

Because for centuries, we have taken.

Energy.

Human beings.

Precious resources.

And it’s time we heal what we have

Fractured.

Clouded.

Emptied.

It’s time for the world to give back what we have taken from Africa.

And we can do that by giving our

Diamonds for Africa.

The pendant from your neck.

The ring from your finger.

The watch from your wrist.

It has felt your pulse.

It has walked with you down the aisle.

It was filled with memories by your godmother.

You will hold on to what these diamonds mean forever.

And they will become even more meaningful

when you let them go.

Your diamonds can do so much more than attend the occasional black tie

affair.

They can heal.

They can give back life where life has been taken.

Just one earring means 40 mammograms to women

who have never seen a doctor.

Your grandmother’s bracelet can haul water

to an entire village every day for a whole year.

You can turn a three-carat ring into six months of meals

for families in famine.

Your diamonds can do more than sit quietly in a little blue box.

They can change minds, spark hope and save lives.

When you give your diamonds back to Africa,

Amazing things happen.

Hospitals are built.

Roads are paved.

Children are clothed.

Someone listens to the silenced.

Someone cares for the abandoned.

Giving back is a shining example of what you truly value.

Giving back is an act of selflessness

that will leave your self feeling unimaginably good.

A lot of people ask you to write a great big check for their cause.

Diamonds for Africa asks you do something far more personal.

We ask you to take something you have,

something that probably means a lot to you,

and give it to a person you will probably never meet.

The world has taken from Africa.

This is your chance to give Africa something beautiful back.

Diamonds for Africa. Give back.
