Jewelry.com & Jewelers for Children Team Up to Send Valentine's Wishes and Crucial Funds to Children in Need

NEW YORK, Feb. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- Jewelry.com -- the number one jewelry website with over 30 MIL annual visitors -- has partnered with Jewelers for Children (JFC), the jewelry industry's charity, to offer consumers three ways to help children suffering from catastrophic illness or life-threatening abuse and neglect:

1. For those ready to make a donation, Jewelry.com will match that
donation, dollar-for-dollar. Visit
http://www.jewelry.com/child-in-need/index.html for details.

2. For those not ready to donate, Jewelry.com will donate for them:
Jewelry.com will give 10 cents for each click from their "clicks for
charity" page at http://www.jewelry.com/child-in-need/jfc_ticker.html.
No purchase or donation is required.

3. A printable valentine is offered at

forward each valentine to a suffering child and match any contribution

This Valentine's Day, Jewelry.com urges everyone to remember those who need our love the most -- children in need.

Jewelry.com is the preeminent gateway to jewelry information and shopping. With 30 MIL visitors annually, Jewelry.com is the most-visited jewelry site on the Internet. It offers jewelry education & information, style & trend news, and a meta-catalog of product offered by national name-brand retailers including Zales, Macy's, Helzberg, Sears, May Co. Department Stores, and JCPenney. While Jewelry.com does not sell jewelry itself, its unique "deep link" model facilitates easy online or offline transactions with these stores.

As the industry's charity, Jewelers for Children (JFC) is generously supported by the fine jewelry and watch industry. Since 1999, more than $14 million has been invested in special programs to reach children whose lives have been devastated by catastrophic illness or life-threatening abuse and neglect. JFC supports the Make-A-Wish Foundation, National CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) Association, The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, and St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital.
