They say everything is bigger in Texas. And Austin-based Kendra Scott has taken that notion to heart. The jewelry designer, who started her label in 2002 with $500 and has since turned it into a multimillion-dollar company, doesn't just dabble in charity workâshe immerses herself in it. In the past year alone, Kendra Scott Jewelry has worked with more than 1,000 nonprofits and donated over $1 million and 50,000 pieces of jewelry to various initiatives.
Now, she is offering Marie Claire readers an exclusive rose gold and iridescent drusy necklace and earring set (named the "Marie"), with 100 percent of the proceeds going toward a philanthropic cause of their choosing. Pick one of 10 at checkout (among them: domestic violence, military families, pediatric cancer, and women entrepreneurs), and the brand will donate your money to an organization championing that issue. "The truest form of success is to give back in a meaningful way," says Scott. Now that's a big idea.
