Our Commitments
transforming mission into impact
We aim to create deep, long-standing relationships with communities that can have a measurable impact over time.
A Year of Action:
reproductive rights advocacy
The overturning of Roe v. Wade presents an unprecedented rollback of reproductive rights and marks a direct attack on our team—over 77% of whom identify as women and 36% are based in the U.S.* It is our collective responsibility to protect one another and put a stake in the ground for what we believe.
We partnered with Don’t Ban Equality, a coalition of nonprofits (including Planned Parenthood Federation of America, and American Civil Liberties Union), to form a committee of like-minded brands using our voice and reach to help protect access to reproductive healthcare and advocate for equal rights.
Through fundraising events, community initiatives, and amplification on our platforms, we will continue to mobilize the community and provide much-needed education about the issues at hand.

“We worked with Mejuri to approach sustainability with social justice in mind including the health and wellbeing of their employees and communities. By working with other brands, this work will help them to use their influence to support women’s access to safe healthcare.”

We’ve also expanded the reproductive coverage in our benefits program to include:
No-questions-asked time off
As well as travel and lodging reimbursements for any employees needing to seek an abortion out of state
Coverage of all contraceptives
Full coverage by insurance without cost-sharing
charitable initiatives
Established in 2020, our Empowerment Fund supports women and non-binary people's access to skills through traditional or non-traditional education in order to help them design the life they want. Since then, we’ve donated over $324,000 USD in post-secondary scholarships to initiatives such as:
We’ve also donated $100,000 USD to additional corporate giving initiatives for nonprofits such as Stop AAPI Hate and Stonewall Community Foundation.
“This bursary will help me cover some of the expenses of the cost of attending post-secondary school and living away from my family. Becoming a speech pathologist will be so rewarding because speech is an essential part of life, and being able to help a child achieve that will be the best feeling in the world.”

Regeneration: A Revolutionary
Re-mining Initiative
Hundreds of thousands of abandoned mines, deemed “legacy mines,” exist around the world. If left untreated, some legacy mines pollute sensitive watersheds, ecosystems, and native species.
We’re proud Founding Partners and the exclusive jewelry sector partner of Regeneration, a revolutionary re-mining initiative from RESOLVE, dedicated to the rehabilitation of legacy mining sites and the restoration of surrounding natural environments.

Regeneration utilizes modern, efficient mining practices to extract valuable minerals from mine tailings, waste rock, and water surrounding these sites, helping to clean and restore the environment while attaining minerals in a far more eco-friendly fashion.
Not only will these precious minerals help in our global energy transition, but earnings from the sale of these responsibly-sourced materials will be reinvested to help fund habitat restoration and mine closure activities—including at legacy and former mine sites.
Regeneration will also seek to create and trade biodiversity and carbon credits through the rehabilitation of land and the generation of environmental offsets.

Supporting Salmon Gold
An initiative from RESOLVE, Salmon Gold produces gold while restoring vital habitat for salmon and other wild species. The partnership re-mines legacy gold mine sites and restores fish habitats using sustainable techniques across Alaska, the Yukon Territory, and British Columbia.

Responsible Sourcing
We believe that the highest levels of accountability and transparency are the future of modern luxury, and we’re committed to helping to drive this meaningful change across our industry.
To do this, we’ve partnered with a number of players across the industry to support one another in our collective mission towards improving our social and environmental performance.
We work with trusted suppliers who align with our values. Our Code of Conduct extends to partners throughout our supply chain, helping ensure adherence to fair labor practices, safe working conditions, and transparent communication.
The implementation of our SEA Program helps to ensure that any supplier interested in working with Mejuri must meet our expectations in four key areas before becoming a trusted partner:
Human rights
Fair and safe labor practices
Environmental protection
Ethical business conduct
It allows us to actively monitor our suppliers for adherence to those standards. Through the SEA Program, we can continually evaluate our supplier approach and practices to help ensure that we’re doing responsible business for the world we live in today—and tomorrow.
Our partnerships are constantly challenging us to refine our goals and move forward—for the good of everyone on the planet.
Currently, our partnership with Business for Social Responsibility is helping us to achieve resilience. We’ve signed on with Positive Luxury whose ESG+ framework is helping evaluate our sustainability programs. In addition, we’re joining the Watch and Jewelry Initiative to achieve several UN Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
In 2022, Mejuri became a signatory to the UN Global Compact corporate responsibility initiative and its principles in the areas of human rights, labor, the environment, and anti-corruption.
Since 2023, Mejuri has been a signatory of the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles, which offer guidance to businesses on how to promote gender equality and women’s empowerment in the workplace, marketplace, and community.
