Jewelers for Children has made a $25,000 donation to the American Red Cross Disaster Relief fund to support recovery efforts for Hurricane Sandy.

“Everyone has been overwhelmed with the news from the affected region and our charity programs committee felt it was very important for JFC to contribute to the relief efforts,” said Peter Engel, JFC board chair, in a statement. “Our thoughts are with all of the people involved in this horrible tragedy, particularly those that are part of our industry family.”
