Our fundraiser program has just partnered with two wonderful organizations for 2017: the Superior Watershed Partnership and the Noquemanon Trails Network. For each pendant sold, we'll give $50 to the respective organization. Here at Beth Millner Jewelry we are firm believers in supporting our local community and environment.
The Superior Watershed Partnership is an outstanding organization which works very hard on Great Lakes protection, restoration, and education with an emphasis on Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, and Lake Huron.
Supporting hundreds of programs across the upper midwest, the SWP has helped restore native fish populations, plant trees, battle invasive species, removed hundreds of tons of waste from our lakes and supports K-12 school programs and internships.

Our second partnering organization is the Noquemanon Trail Network.
A hugely diverse recreational supporter, these trails provide access to the Marquette woods for hikers, mountain bikers, horseback riders, dog walkers, nordic skiers, snowshoers, skijors and any other non-motorized recreational activity you can think up!
Funded largely through memberships and day passes, these well maintained paths are some of the top trails in the nation for outdoor recreation. This organization also supports numerous community events, from races to festivals the trails are where the fun is in Marquette county.

Each of these pieces are designed with the sturdiness of an outdoor explorer in mind. The unique square shape and single bail that when paired with a larger chain or leather cord lend to a masculine form, perfect for any outdoorsman with an affinity for the lake or trails. When paired with a more delicate chain however, the details are enhanced and the blocky shape softens to an elegant piece.
New pieces in the Fundraiser series will be released this fall! They will be supporting the U.P. Land Conservancy and the Superior Arts Youth Theatre. We will be retiring our current fundraiser pieces supporting Moosewood Nature Center and the Julia Nestingen-Palm Memorial Art Scholarship Fund with the fall release.
Be on the lookout for next year's application if your organization is interested in collaborating with us in the future! We'll put a call out in March of 2018.
