Our Commitments
We aim to create deep, long-standing relationships with communities that can have a measurable impact over time.
We’re committed to making a positive impact in the fine jewelry industry and within our communities. That’s why we’re sharing our long-term goals across four key impact areas: people, planet, product, and philanthropy.

The overturning of Roe v. Wade presents an unprecedented rollback of reproductive rights and marks a direct attack on our team—over 79% 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, BSR, and the 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.

Our collaboration with Design Thinking Africa is the beginning of our Empowerment Funds' philanthropic endeavors within our international supply chain. The program teaches precision gemstone cutting and polishing to women in Zambia to uplift them and their communities.
In 2023, ten women received scholarships to upskill their polishing abilities. The long-term goal of our partnership with Design Think Africa is to support women in Zambia so they can promote local economic development by directly supplying Zambian mined and polished stones to jewelers.
Established in 2020, our Empowerment Fund supports women and non-binary people's access to skills through traditional or non-traditional education to help them design the life they want.
To date, we've donated $823,000 USD in scholarships and advocacy partnerships across the US and Canada, including to initiatives such as:
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 rehabilitating legacy mining sites and restoring 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 by rehabilitating land and generating environmental offsets.
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.
donated in support of Salmon Gold through various corporate initiatives in 2022.
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.
