AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- National jewelry retailer Kendra Scott announces that it has met its
goal of giving back $100,000 to
philanthropic organizations as part of its holiday campaign, "The
Giving Gives On".
Kendra Scott is a brand that is
passionate about giving back and sustaining its philanthropic
philosophy to create good in the world. To launch "The
Giving Gives On" campaign, Kendra
Scott partnered with Jennifer
Hudson, the Grammy-winning singer and Academy Award-winning
actress, to create good this season. This initiative aligns with
the brand's Shop For Good program, with 20% of proceeds
from each purchase of Hudson's favorite earring, Madelyn Gold
Statement Earrings In Multi Mix, between December 1-12 being donated to the Julian D.
King Foundation.
Following the launch, the brand worked with other philanthropic
supporters like Trevon Diggs, Kat
Stickler, Jonathan Daviss, RaeLynn, and local community
partners from Kendra Scott's 110+
retail locations to further raise funds. Today, Kendra Scott is excited to share it has met its
commitment to raise $50,000 for
charitable causes between December 1
– 12. Other organizations that will benefit from these funds
include the The Salvation Army, The Jed
Foundation, Children's Miracle Network
Hospitals, Inheritance of Hope and more.
The first $50,000 of this goal was
met thanks to the generosity of the brand's customers, who drove
donations by purchasing various giveback styles such as
the Madelyn Gold Statement Earrings In Multi Mix,
the Jack Gold Hoop Earrings In White Crystal and
the Cade Bracelet in Tiger's Eye, amongst others.
This donation was then matched by Kendra Scott for a total giveback of
$100,000.
"We are grateful for the incredible support of our generous
customers helping us give on this holiday season," says
Kendra Scott. "The holidays, like
our jewelry, are all about creating good. It's an honor to spread
joy and help those who need it most this year."
The brand continues to host 'Kendra Gives Back' events 365
days-a-year with 20% of proceeds from every event benefiting
charitable causes. Each 'Kendra Gives Back' event is customer-led,
and anyone who is interested in hosting a giveback event with the

giveback initiative, Kendra Scott

families and individuals who have directly benefited from the
