The “Green Bracelet” is the symbol of the Diamond Empowerment Fund. The rough diamond and malachite Green Bracelet was created by Simmons Jewelry Co. to help support educational initiatives that develop and empower people in African nations where diamonds are a natural resource.

Green has long been associated with the continent of Africa and its rich natural resources. For example, Green is one of the three colors of Pan- Africanism represented in the flags of several countries.

For Simmons Jewelry Company, Green provides inspiration and reminds everyone of Africa’s most important natural resource, the human being.

Diamond Empowerment Fund extends enormous thanks to the Simmons Jewelry Co. for donations of over $700,000 raised since 2007. We are thrilled to have the Simmons Jewelry Co’s leading support and offer special thanks to all Green Bracelet buyers. Together, we are making good progress on fulfilling DEF’s dream of helping Africans help Africa through educational empowerment. GO GREEN!
