patented and completely original technology, this concept replaces traditional clasps with a

sliding mechanism, making each piece adjustable. This signature expandable feature is

available in expandable wire bangles, rings, chain necklaces, and endless hoop earrings. This

completely original design allows everyone to have a piece of jewelry customized for a

perfect fit. Available in precious metals and a variety of trend finishes, including our

sion for making the dreams of charitable organizations come true is channeled through

Charity by Design, a unique department focused solely upon giving. Charity by Design

empowers charitable organizations to reach their goals by sharing what they do best, the

power of positive energy through innovative, creative design. Their customized symbolic

charms capture the essence of a charity making it more accessible to the public while

| PURPOSE STATEMENT |

Charity by Design’s purpose is to serve any cause that aims to uplift the quality of life of

others.

| POWER OF ONE |

It takes one individual who embodies the position to spread the positivity to the world.

Charity by Design is the collection of these individuals spreading the same message and

sharing their stories.

Charity by Design contributes to social well-being through partnerships,

donations, community and employee engagement with international, national,

and local charitable organizations.

| PARTY WITH A PURPOSE |

Party with a Purpose is a unique shopping experience designed to give back to your community. It is an opportunity for you to bring friends and family to shop at any of our stores and we will donate 15% of all sales during the event to the non-profit of your choice. We want to help make it easy for you to give back and raise funds and awareness.

| BANGLE BAR EVENTS |

Alex and Ani’s exclusive Bangle Bars (mobile store) allow customers to design their own unique bangle sets with empowering and personalized pieces. At an Alex and Ani Bangle Bar, the consumer can use their individual power of purchase to give back to a charitable organization. 20% of all sales from the Bangle Bar will go directly to the featured non-profit. Perfect for all fundraising events, Bangle Bars are a great way to create awareness and support a notable organization.

| PRODUCT DONATIONS |

Alex and Ani donates unique bangle sets to organizations for use at events to be either raffled or auctioned off with all proceeds going to the non-profit.

| CHARM DESIGN |

The creation of exclusive charms for Alex and Ani’s partnering organizations are another important component of Charity by Design. Such partnerships between Alex and Ani and the non-profit organization happen so organically that it is based on the relationship built with the organization rather than criteria requirements. Once the relationship has been established, artwork, meaning cards, and signs are created for the charm to help spread awareness along with the exposure on our website. 20% of proceeds from all sales of the Charity by Design bangle will go directly to the organization.

This bangle has truly been a tangible representation of all the work and love

we’ve put into Finnz Fundz so far. It means so much to have this charm on the

wrists of so many, further spreading our dear Finn’s influence and love. We are

so proud to have had the opportunity to partner with Alex and Ani, and feel that

our relationship with this great company lends our foundation a sense of

African Rainforest Conservancy

After a successful three-year run with the Tree of Life Bangle, ARC is thrilled to

deepen its partnership with Alex and Ani with the newly launched Tree

Hugger bangle. The proceeds from this bangle will allow ARC to plant an

additional 10,000 trees in Tanzania’s Eastern Arc Mountains this year – giving

communities tangible alternatives to cutting down the rainforest for timber, fuel

wood, etc.

Wendy Fournier, President

National Autism Association

The puzzle piece has special meaning to families affected by autism. Originally,

the design symbolized the need to solve the puzzle of cause and treatments for

autism. With 1 in 88 children now being diagnosed, it is also symbolic of the

fact that it truly takes a village to support those who are affected. The funds

raised through sales of this bracelet will provide meaningful help to families

through NAA’s programs. To all of you, who choose to add this beautiful piece to

your #charmed arms, please know that YOU are a vital piece of the puzzle.
