Arquette Teams With Satya
Jewelry for Haitian Relief
Satya Jewelry teamed with Patricia Arquette to offer a Hope, Love & Healing for Haiti necklace, donating 100% of the proceeds to Arquette's charity, Give Love (www.givelove.org), which is supporting ongoing relief efforts in Haiti*.
"We share Patricia's passion for this cause and we're thrilled to be working with her," said Satya Scainetti, co-founder of Satya Jewelry. "We simply cannot forget what has happened in Haiti and the tragedy affecting these innocent children and the beautiful people of Haiti."
To help raise funds for Haiti, Satya designed a sterling silver triple pendant necklace - with hope and heart pendants, and a turquoise stone - strung to an 18-inch, silver chain. Turquoise is the stone of healing.
"All of us at Give Love are very grateful to be partnering with Satya Jewelry. The Hope, Love & Healing necklace is the perfect embodiment of what we are trying to bring to Haiti: Hope through safe and sustainable housing, sanitation solutions, and water filtration devises. Our long term hope is that we can create replicable models that can be used in underdeveloped area all over the world" Thank you Satya Jewelry and your customers for your beautiful craftsmanship and your open hearts!" says Patricia Arquette.
To initiate this endeavor, the company donated $20,000 in March to Give Love (http://www.givelove.org/), through the Satya Foundation. Satya Jewelry will continue to raise money in the months to come.100% of the proceeds from the Hope, Love & Healing for Haiti necklace will go toward Haitian relief via Give Love (www.givelove.org). The necklace costs $38 dollars and is available on the Satya Jewelry website, http://satyajewelry.com, and in all Satya jewelry stores. Let this charming and powerful necklace be your inspiration to be part of this vital life-saving project for Haitian citizens.
