Giving back is an important part of the culture at Temple St. Clair. We support a range of initiatives that fall under the auspices of Community, Conservation & the Arts. We have long term relationships with community and arts organizations in New York City, and with conservation organizations in Kenya. In June 2021, we launched the Rainbow Angel Initiative; TSC employees will choose and vote on initiatives that are near and dear to them that fall under Community, Conservation or the Arts. A percentage of sales from rainbow angel jewels will support the cause.
