'Tis the Season to be Generous!

With the holiday season upon us, it marks the perfect time to give our thanks and spread a little joy to others who may be less fortunate.  Making a charitable donation not only gives you that instant warm, fuzzy feeling, but it also more importantly, changes someone’s life forever.
For the past 37 years, Astrein’s Jewelers has been making a difference in the lives of children and adults by generously donating to numerous charities and foundations in the Metro Detroit area.
 Some of their most recent charitable gifts include:





 Men’s Bulova Watch, donated to the National Kidney Foundation (www.kidney.org)






Sterling Silver Bracelet, donated to Leader Dogs for the Blind (www.leaderdog.org)

 












White Gold Key Pendant and Diamond Bangle, both among the several items donated to the Stars Guitars Event(www.starsguitars.org                                                                    


For this holiday season, consider making a donation to your favorite charity and helping someone else’s Thanksgiving and Christmas be a little more merry and bright. In addition to giving the perfect necklace or watch to that someone special, make a contribution to a charity in his or her name; it could be the start of a new Christmas tradition.  Remember, you have to give a little to get a little!
