Honoring Unsung Female Heroes

Calvin Coolidge once wrote "No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave." As Christians, we are always looking for ways to honor those who make a point to live their lives according to the teachings of Christ. There are those of us who go above and beyond to try and help members of the community who have fallen on hard times; many of whom are typically ignored by society. One Dallas-based jewelry store is shining the light on these unsung heroes in our community with a very unique award. Joolwe.com online jewelry store wants to recognize the hard work that some women devote their entire lives to. The company is launching their first annual "Joolwe.com Selfless Woman Jewelry Award" just in time for the holiday season.

Joolwe.com is searching for members of the community who always put the needs of others before their own and never ask for anything in return. By asking the public to submit letters telling the story of the person they feel deserves to be recognized for their altruism, they are making the award program a community effort. Joolwe.com will pick the winners based on merit and give them the opportunity to choose any piece of fine jewelry from the special reward catalog section of their store. Each year, applicants must submit their nominations by December 6 for the chance to have their nominee in the running to receive a free piece of beautiful jewelry by Christmas Eve. "One thing that I've always loved about Christianity is the tenet that stresses helping out your neighbor. Christianity teaches that we should all try to live in Christ's image in order to make the world a better place. We hope our program helps people remember to not only honor those who give back but to also give back themselves" says Ryan Cheng, Joolwe.com founder. He continues, "Our award program creates an opportunity to show appreciation and let that special someone know that you recognize how kind they are."

Some may wonder why such a young company decided to launch an altruistic initiatives; company founder, Ryan Cheng says, "I think it's important to celebrate those in the community who work hard all year and I think the gift of jewelry is a wonderful way to make a person feel special." Joolwe.com is a company that prides itself by doing with business while trying to keep Christian values in mind. They have just launched their "Shop for a Cause" program; where a portion of the company's proceeds will be donated to participating local and national non-profit organizations.

There is a saying by Aesop that goes, "No act of kindness, no matter how small, is every wasted." That quote sums up what Cheng's Joolwe Selfless Woman Jewelry Award is recognizing. Believing in Jesus Christ is only a part of Christianity, abiding by his teachings is also a major part of the religion. We are all taught to help one another; but it is rare to see someone dedicate their lives to doing so. Joolwe.com online jewelry store's Selfless Woman Jewelry Awards is honoring those women who exhibit the type of behavior that we should all aspire to emulate.
