Looking for beautiful jewelry, unique gifts, and a meaningful way to give back to your community? Join us for Jewels for Hope, a beloved annual fundraiser benefiting HopeWorks of Howard County, Howard County's comprehensive domestic violence and rape crisis center!

Hosted by Glen Mar United Methodist Church, this special event features thousands of gently loved jewelry pieces and scarves, with prices starting at just $5. Whether you're shopping for yourself or getting a head start on holiday gifts, every purchase helps support survivors of domestic and sexual violence right here in Howard County.

Founded in 2016 by the late Olivia "Libby" Boswell, Jewels for Hope has become a wonderful community tradition rooted in compassion and generosity. Last year's event raised more than $42,000 for HopeWorks!

Your support matters now more than ever. In FY26, HopeWorks provided services to 4,466 people, a 61% increase over the previous year. Proceeds from Jewels for Hope help sustain critical services, including emergency shelter, legal advocacy, counseling, and support for survivors and their children as they rebuild their lives.
