Over 40 volunteers comprised of employees from Forevermark US and staff from four Fairfield County Forevermark authorized jewelers including, Billy Craig’s Fine Jewelry, David Harvey Jewelers, J. Albert Johnson Jewelers, and Nagi Jewelers partnered with local environmental education non-profit SoundWaters to clean up Cove Island Park in Stamford, CT. Throughout the day, volunteers took action to protect their local watershed cleaning up litter along the waterline and through the park gathering 32 bags and 246 pounds of trash.

Forevermark, the global diamond brand from The De Beers Group of Companies, bases its US headquarters in Stamford, CT. As part of The De Beers Group of Companies, Forevermark is committed to giving back to the communities in which it operates.

“Respect and love for nature are deeply embedded in the heart of Forevermark,” said Charles Stanley, President of Forevermark US. “By mobilizing our staff and our local Fairfield County Forevermark Jewelers with this day of service benefitting SoundWaters, our goal is to give back to our local Fairfield community that are proud to call our home.”

SoundWaters was founded in 1989 with the mission to protect the Long Island Sound through education and action. The local non-profit educates over 28,000 students of all ages from Connecticut and New York annually, including 9,000 on scholarship from low-income communities, aboard the schooner, in schools and at their Coastal Education Center, located in Cove Island Park.
