The Select Jewelry Show in Dallas held in September offered a special raffle to raise money for those affected by the recent hurricanes. The $3,500 raised was donated to Jewelers for Children.
“We wanted to keep the money in the industry,” said Select Jewelry Show founder Joe Carullo. “We were pleased to find that that they have a specific fund for Hurricane relief that benefits children.”
“We’re grateful to all the participants in the Select Jewelry Show Dallas who donated towards the relief efforts following the devastating hurricanes,” said Jewelers for Children Executive Director David Rocha. “Their support, along with that of the Centurion Jewelry Show participants will allow Jewelers for Children to provide additional funding to help those effected.”
The funds were raised through a raffle and then matched by the Select Jewelry Show. The winner of the raffle was Micah Ben-Aharon, of Sol Ben, Inc., Dallas Texas. She receives a two-night stay at the Dallas Ritz Carlton and a gift certificate to nearby Del Frisco’s Steakhouse.
2018 dates for the Dallas Select Jewelry Show are Sunday and Monday, September 16-17, 2018 at the Dallas Ritz Carlton Hotel. For additional information call 646-517-0660 or 800-552-3790; email [email protected]; or visit www.selectjewelryshow.com.
