Lapis "UWMOC" with Pavé Golden Hidden Gemstone Pendant

From strengthening local resilience to advancing health, youth opportunity and financial security, United Way of Monmouth and Ocean Counties mobilizes communities to action so all can thrive. For over 55 years, we have been rooted in our community, listening to local needs and developing partnerships and pathways to meet them. With community partners across business, government, education and nonprofit sectors, we are uniquely positioned to spark collaboration and innovation. Some of our local initiatives include our Warmest Wishes Coat Drive - to ensure every child has a warm coat during the cold winter months, our Basic Needs - providing personal essentials for youth, adults and seniors in our local community as well as our partnership with NJ 211 to provide 24/7/365 information and referral for Monmouth and Ocean County residents. Together, we’re working towards a future where every person and community can thrive.

Oriana selected lapis and citrine gemstones for this Armcandy for a Cause bracelet to reflect the strength, clarity, and hope at the heart of United Way of Monmouth and Ocean Counties. The deep blue lapis symbolizes wisdom, truth, and community—mirroring United Way’s role in listening, leading, and uniting local voices to create lasting change. The vibrant golden citrine represents warmth, energy, and optimism—qualities embodied in initiatives like the Warmest Wishes Coat Drive and NJ 211 partnership. Together, these stones honor the mission of building a resilient, thriving future for every person in our community.
