Social Responsibility

At Gesswein, we believe in the power of giving back. Whether it be to our local community or the industries we serve, we are committed to finding ways in which we can help those in need. Below is a list of organizations whose causes we are pleased to either partner with or contribute to.

Toolbox Initiative

Toolbox Initiative is a volunteer-based, non-profit organization founded by jewelers Matthieu Cheminée and Tim McCreight. They assist fellow jewelers with limited resources by collecting new or gently used jewelry tools and delivering them to hardworking jewelers, primarily in West Africa where commercial tools are rarely available. By calling on the collective effort of the metalworking community, their aim is to address this imbalance and deepen the bond between jewelers worldwide.
