If you're shopping for someone who has been through a diagnosis, is supporting a loved one, or is remembering someone they lost, I think the most meaningful holiday gift is one that does more than an awareness ribbon. That's why I started Revive Jewelry, and it's why I put together this 2026 holiday guide to jewelry that gives back to charity, with something for every budget and every person on your list.
Where can you buy jewelry that gives back to charity? At Revive Jewelry, every piece is handmade with a cell image from a histology slide of the cause it represents, and 10% of the purchase price is donated to a charity partner working on that cause, like Breast Cancer Research Foundation or Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance. You can shop by cause, choose from necklaces, bracelets, earrings and men's pieces, and even order a custom piece with your own imagery.
Why Jewelry That Gives Back to Charity Makes Such a Meaningful Holiday Gift
The American Cancer Society estimates that about 2.1 million people in the US will be diagnosed with cancer in 2026, which means almost everyone has someone on their list whose life has been touched by it. The good news is that research is making a difference. The ACS reports that the 5-year relative survival rate for all cancers combined has reached 70%, up from 49% in the mid-1970s. You can read more in their Cancer Facts & Figures 2026 report.
When I design a piece, I start with an image of the disease itself and turn it into something beautiful. There's something amazing about finding this beauty and using it to take our power back from disease by funding research and awareness. So when you give one of these pieces, the person you love gets a daily reminder that someone is thinking of them, and a portion of what you spent goes straight to the people working on better treatments and cures. We make cause jewelry in necklaces, bracelets, earrings, rings, men's bracelets and other accessories, so it's easy to find something that fits their style.
Gifts That Give Back Under $50
These are perfect stocking stuffers, teacher or coworker gifts, and little "thinking of you" presents for friends and family members.
Happy Heart Stud Earrings
The Happy Heart Stud Earrings are one of our most loved pieces, and it's easy to see why! Each little heart is made with resin over a cell image of the cause you choose, with Sterling silver posts and ear backs. They're lightweight and adorable, and at $28 they're one of the easiest gifts on this list. You can choose from 20 causes in the dropdown, from Alzheimer's and breast cancer to lupus, melanoma and infertility. See them here! You can also shop all of our Happy Heart Studs by cause.
Happy Heart Necklace on Cord
If they love the earrings, the matching Happy Heart Necklace is the perfect pairing. The heart shaped pendant is made by casting resin over a cell image of the cause, and the adjustable black cord version is just $38 and goes from 12 to 24 inches. If you'd like to give something a little dressier, it also comes on a 16 to 18 inch Sterling silver ($94) or 14k gold filled ($130) chain. For the breast cancer necklace, 10% goes to Breast Cancer Research Foundation, and we make it for other causes too, like ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, diabetes, heart disease and Alzheimer's. See it here. Or browse the whole Happy Hearts Collection for matching bracelets and necklaces in every cause.
The Infinity Bracelet and Matching Infinity Necklace
I designed the Infinity collection as a reminder that love never fades, whether you're wearing it in memory of someone or celebrating a bond that can't be broken. The Infinity Bracelet ($35) has an infinity charm cut from a cell image and sealed in clear resin, on an adjustable gray cord with a Sterling silver slide clasp. Pair it with the matching Infinity Necklace in Sterling silver ($78) or 14k gold filled ($102) for a set that says "I love you forever." It's such a sweet gift for a mom and daughter or two sisters to share! The Ovarian Cancer Infinity pieces give 10% to Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance, and we make the collection in more than a dozen causes. See it here. You can find every cause in our Infinity Jewelry collection.
The Forever Tied Awareness Bracelet
The Forever Tied Bracelet has been our most loved bracelet for years, and it's one I'm especially proud of because it represents the bond you'll always have with someone you love. The center pendant is based on a cell image of the cause, and the adjustable cord fits most wrists from 5 to 9 inches. It's available in Sterling silver ($48) or 14k gold filled ($72). This listing lets you choose Alzheimer's, breast cancer, diabetes, multiple sclerosis, ovarian cancer or pancreatic cancer, and we also make it for colon cancer, lung cancer, childhood cancer, lupus, infertility and more. See it here! Or shop the full Forever Tied collection by cause.
The Warrior, Survivor, Thriver Greeting Card With Bracelet
This one is a card and a gift in one, so it's perfect if you're mailing something or adding it to a holiday package. A hand-strung cord bracelet with a round cell image pendant and a Sterling silver slide clasp comes presented on a beautifully designed card, and all you have to do is add your message. It's $38, and you choose the cause from a dropdown of 14 options. If the moment calls for something different, we also make a Motivational Greeting Card With Butterfly Bracelet and a Sympathy Greeting Card With Interlocking Hearts Bracelet, both $38. See it here. All three are in our Greeting Cards collection.
Meaningful Gifts From $50 to $100
The Empower Bracelet
I designed the Empower Bracelet for the survivors, advocates and supporters in your life who stand tall through life's challenges. The breast cancer version is handcrafted with faceted rose quartz stones and a pink Czech glass coin pendant featuring a breast cancer cell image sealed in clear resin. The stretch design makes it easy to wear and stack, and even easier to gift, at $68. For the breast cancer bracelet, 10% goes to Breast Cancer Research Foundation, and the Empower comes in other causes too, including ovarian cancer, pancreatic cancer, leukemia, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, sarcoma and Alzheimer's. See it here! You can see every cause in our Empower Bracelets collection.
The Circle of Hope Necklace
The Circle of Hope is our most loved necklace this year, and it's one of my favorites to wear every day. I use a hand cut cell image as the basis of the small round pendant, which sits on a dainty choker-style chain in Sterling silver ($89) or 14k gold filled ($130). It's simple enough to wear with everything, and the meaning behind it is deeply personal and significant. The breast cancer necklace gives 10% to Breast Cancer Research Foundation, and we make the Circle of Hope for many other causes, including infertility, ovarian cancer, diabetes, lupus, leukemia and colon cancer. See it here. Or shop the full Circle of Hope collection.
The Men's Cord Bracelet for a Cause
The guys on your list want to show their support too, and this is such an easy way for them to do it. The Men's Cord Bracelet has a Sterling silver bead with a diamond shaped cell image in resin on an adjustable brown or black cord, with a slide bead so it's easy to take on and off. It's $52, and he can choose from 16 causes, including prostate cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer and heart disease. It's a great pick for a dad, husband or brother who is supporting someone he loves. See it here!
We also offer other Men's Awareness Jewelry options here!

The Men's Braided Leather Cord Bracelet
If you want something a little more substantial for him, the Braided Leather Bracelet is our most stylish men's piece. Brown and black genuine leather are braided together into a thick bracelet, finished with a button closure made from a cell image set in resin. He can wear the button on top of his wrist or on the back, depending on how much he wants it to show. It's $108, in small (7 inch), medium (8 inch) or large (9 inch), with the same 16 causes to choose from. We also make men's stretch bracelets with stones like labradorite, jade and jasper for $80.

The Custom Cause Awareness Necklace
If the cause closest to their heart isn't one we carry, or you want to make something truly one of a kind, the Custom Cause Awareness Necklace is the gift for you. You choose the cause, your imagery and a color group, and I'll design a handmade necklace just for them in your choice of three styles: the Circle of Hope, the Magnify or the Embrace. Don't have an image? We're happy to help source or create one. We always send a proof for your approval before we make it, and 10% of the purchase price goes to the charity partner you select. It starts at $114 in Sterling silver, with 14k gold filled available too. See it here!
The Custom Magnify Fertility Necklace
For anyone who has been on an IVF or fertility journey, this is one of the most meaningful gifts I make. We take their embryo image and set it under resin in a small round pendant, in the color group they choose, so they can keep their embabies close every day. You can add up to five pendants, and the dainty chain has a 2 inch extender so it can be worn from 16 to 18 inches, in Sterling silver or 14k gold filled. It starts at $119, and 10% of the purchase price is donated to Hopeful Mama Foundation. See it here. We also make embryo rings and bracelets in our Custom Embryo Jewelry collection.

We're happy to rush orders at no extra charge whenever possible, so just let us know.

Frequently Asked Questions About Jewelry That Gives Back
Where can I buy jewelry that donates a portion of proceeds to charity?
You can shop jewelry that gives back right here at Revive Jewelry. Every piece donates 10% of the purchase price to a charity partner connected to the cause it represents, and we name the specific charity on each product page so you always know where your donation is going.
How do I know a jewelry brand really supports a charitable cause?
I'd look for two things: a specific percentage and a named charity. "A portion of proceeds" doesn't tell you much, but "10% to Breast Cancer Research Foundation" does. We partner with 22 charities, and you can read more on our commitment to charity and our partners on our website.
What if my loved one has a cause you don't carry?
Please reach out! Our Custom Cause Awareness Necklace lets you choose any cause, and you can always get in touch if you'd like a fully custom piece, here.
What if they don't want to wear awareness jewelry?
Not everyone wants something that's tied to a diagnosis, and that's completely okay. Our Manifest Healing collection is a softer option that focuses on hope and healing, and it's a lovely choice for someone who would rather keep their health top of mind.
Can I order a custom piece in time for the holidays?
Yes. Custom pieces take about 7 to 10 business days from your order, depending on how quickly you approve the proof, and we'll rush your order at no charge when we can. The sooner you order, the more time you'll have to relax and enjoy the season.
