Jamie J.
Business Owner
“I started Baraka Gemstones and Jewelry after traveling to Kenya and Tanzania, East Africa to do HIV/AIDS education. Through all the malnutrition, disease, famine and lack of education, I saw kids who were not only struggling to survive, but striving to live. I believe the future of any community lies in the care and continual support of the children, many of whom around the world no longer have anyone they would call family. It is time for the jewelry industry to step up and start supporting the communities from which it obtains much of its precious minerals from. I hope Baraka Gemstones and Jewelry will be leading the way!”
