Poppy has come together with Washington DC's JewelGirls, as a way for the girls to explore and expand their knowledge and techniques in jewelry design and fabrication.
JewelGirls is an income generation and art therapy program that gives teen women a chance for safer, healthier, and brighter futures. Participants of the JewelGirls program are aged 13 to 26. Currently, the program supports 200 teen women in Bosnia, Serbia, Russia, Uganda, and Washington, D.C. Through JewelGirls, participants come together to create unique jewelry while gaining access to therapy, new life skills, financial management skills, and pathways toward a future free of poverty and violence.
