Jewelry = Joy
When your 12 year-old son asks if he can join you in the studio to raise money for those who need it, you hand him a hammer. This happened 10 years ago, and his goal was to sell bracelets to help drill water wells halfway across the world. All these years later, we're still sharing our jewelry and hearts with amazing people and organizations far and wide.
Aside from the work we do with nonprofits, we’re all about spreading jewelry joy. There’s nothing quite like having the experience of getting to select your own meaningful, one-of-a-kind stone and having a beautiful work of art woven around it to help tell your story. We believe that jewelry is the most personal form of art because it can embody who we are, where we’ve been, and how we want to show up for ourselves. We’d love to work with you to help tell your special story through metal and stone – and create you a little joy that will last for generations.

Jean Rossi Wergeles - Fundraising Director
Alyssa and I have known each other since first grade, so being a part of her giving back mission has been a very special experience. My career started in advertising working for nonprofit organizations in corporate communications and later included freelance writing in the e-commerce space. Today, I’m able to combine all that experience to help deliver heart-happy results at Jammin Hammer Jewelry. On top of my work with Alyssa, I serve on the board of the National Charity League and volunteer for a handful of philanthropies. At the end of the day, there is no better feeling than giving an organization a big donation check—this is why Alyssa and I work tirelessly to do what we do.
