They Said My Brother Would Never Work. Now He's Proving Them All Wrong.

I'll never forget the look on his face that day. My brother sat across from me at our kitchen table, shoulders slumped, hope dimmed. Another job interview. Another rejection.

"They said I'm not what they're looking for," he told me quietly.

He has Down syndrome. He also has hands steadier than mine, an eye for detail that borders on obsessive, and a work ethic that would put most people to shame.

But to every employer he met, he was just a risk. Unemployable.

I looked at him across that table and made a promise: If the world won't make space for you, I'll create that space myself.

That's how Jennie & Handheld Hearts was born.

This Isn't Charity. It's Craftsmanship.

Our team members aren't here because I'm being kind.

They're here because they're exceptional at what they do.

Meet Sarah. She inspects every gemstone with precision that would make a diamond cutter jealous. "It has to be perfect for whoever's going to wear it."

Meet Michael. He runs our shipping department with military efficiency. Every package is checked three times. "Someone's waiting for this. We can't let them down."

Meet Elena. Two years ago, she'd never taken public transit alone. Last month, she moved into her own apartment.

This is what happens when you give talented people a real chance.

Why Our Jewelry Costs Less (And Why That Matters)

Most jewelry companies mark up their pieces 8 to 10 times the actual cost. That $400 bracelet? It probably cost them $40 to make.

We do things differently.

We design, create, and ship directly from our atelier to your door. No middlemen. No inflated markups.

Our pieces range from $30-$50.

Here's the beautiful part: when our jewelry is affordable, more women buy it.

More orders mean more work hours. More hours mean more independence, skills, and transformed lives.

When you save money, you're helping us create more jobs.

What You're Really Buying

When you open that package, you're not just getting beautiful jewelry.

You're holding proof that the world can be different.

Every purchase funds:

✓ Fair Wages – Our makers earn dignified paychecks and build futures with their own hands.

✓ Professional Training – Real skills that create real independence.

✓ Life Skills – The everyday things that lead to extraordinary freedom.

One customer, Linda from Michigan, wrote:

"I bought a necklace. I didn't expect to cry when I put it on. But knowing Sarah made this, knowing it helped Elena get her apartment... I feel like I'm wearing hope."

The Ring That Started It All

My brother made his first piece three years ago—a simple silver ring.

His hands shook as he held it up. "Is it good enough?" he asked.

I looked at the perfectly polished band, the way it caught the light.

"It's not just good enough," I told him. "It's beautiful."

He smiled—really smiled—for the first time in months.

That ring reminds me daily why we started. A promise of what's possible.
