New York—Jewelers for Children’s Rings of Strength will now be held at four key industry events next year.

Participants will once again be able to choose between a 5K walk/run or early morning yoga at all locations. The Las Vegas edition also will have a biking option.
Participants can sign up as individuals or build a team page with friends or colleagues. During sign-up, they also can create their own unique fundraising page and URL to forward to friends and family to encourage them to sponsor the chosen activity.
Sponsorship opportunities are also available, including event-specific sponsorships as well as participant swag sponsorships covering all four events.
All funds raised will benefit the Jewelers for Children charity partners.
