More Than a Dress Company - Dainty Jewells Foundation

“It is more blessed to give than to receive.” - Acts 20:35

Every story has a beginning. For some, the beginning is loud and boisterous. For others, a simple seed plants and slowly grows and grows into a mighty tree. Our beginning was the latter - a slow seed that is spreading to reach the hearts and needs of people around the world. 

The Dainty Jewells company was born 15 years ago, beginning with hair accessories and simple dresses that our founder, Charity Jewell, embellished with ruffles and lace. As the company grew, so did a dream in the heart of Charity. With a heart to give, she quietly supplied needs as she saw them: boxes of dresses to missionaries or orphanages here, care packages to victims of natural disasters there. 

For years, these acts of kindness were performed under the radar until Charity met Cheryl, a marketing and finance guru, who agreed to join the Dainty Jewells team as CFO. Cheryl quickly realized that Dainty Jewells is a company that gives….a lot. And she presented the idea of a foundation for Charity to start in order to reach more needs around the world and create a legacy for future generations. 

Giving is the foundation of our purpose. 

 

Today, we are committed to improving lives through giving and community connection. The foundation operates through purchases made by you, our wonderful customers. Each purchase that you make from our Foundation site goes to support someone in need. Through your purchases, we have been able to send boxes of clothing to foreign missionaries and their church ladies, home missions’ churches, and girls of Tupelo Children’s Mansion. We have provided new roofs, church signs, church vans for home missions’ churches and supported our local community in providing dresses for underprivileged young ladies. We have been honored to complete Christmas lists for the Lighthouse Ranch for boys. And so much more! All because of your giving!

If you wonder if your purchase ever makes a difference, it does! What you do matters.

It is our joy to continue this legacy of giving through the Dainty Jewells Foundation.
