MAKING AN IMPACT IN THE LIVES OF MINING COMMUNITIES
Gems Keep Giving is an independent, not-for-profit, charitable organization dedicated to supporting artisanal colored gemstone mining and cutting communities worldwide.
Originally an initiative of the International Colored Stone Association (ICA), Gems Keep Giving is now self-governed and invites contributions from socially conscious sponsors, foundations, and donors who share a passion for colored gems.
With a commitment to transparency and responsible fund allocation, our inaugural project in Kamtonga, Kenya, has already made a significant impact by providing running water and solar energy to an artisanal tsavorite mining community.
Join us in making a lasting difference—donate now and become part of the Gems Keep Giving family. All donations are tax-deductible, secure, and contribute to sustainable futures.
Thank you for your support!
