SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Passionately supporting the jewelry industry, our community, and our employees since 1913.
Strengthening the Jewelry Industry
We invest significantly in organizations and tools that benefit the jewelry industry as a whole. Our jewelry business policyholders enjoy free membership in the Jeweler Security Alliance loss prevention organization and access to our online trainings that encourage their continued education. Additionally, we support organizations that promote ethical business practices, like American Gem Society and Jewelers of America.
Helping Our Employees Help Others
Encouraging and supporting our employees to be socially responsible and involved in our community is a top priority. We can do so much more together.
Gift Match
Our employees are generous givers. The company amplifies this generosity by matching their charitable donations 50%, to any eligible non-profit, nationwide.
Volunteer Hours
All employees are given 12 paid volunteer hours each year and are encouraged to volunteer either individually or as a group through company-organized events.
Charitable Giving Committee
Our corporate gifting initiatives are employee-lead through a cross-functional team that meets quarterly. The committee decides where our local philanthropic efforts are directed and assures each donation provides a positive impact on our community.

Green Initiatives
In 2015, Jewelers Mutual installed 408 solar panels on the roof of our main corporate office. The array spans the entire length and width of our building. Its energy production covers 15% of our total energy needs expenditure and has reduced our contribution to pollution by the amount an average car produces over 140 years.
Department Efforts
Individual departments are empowered to and often organize their own charitable initiatives above and beyond what the company sponsors. During the holidays you’ll often see department food drives, coat drives or Adopt-A-Family programs popping up across the company.
Scholarships
Our employees’ children are eligible to apply for educational scholarships each year. We also sponsor various jewelry industry scholarships and training through the Community Foundation for the Fox Valley Region.
