OUR STORY

Hey there! Thank you for your interest in Béljoy! In 2015, I went from being a stay at home mom to starting a jewelry business in a third world country. My heart was to help mama's become sustainable so they could care for themselves and their children. With that said, we have created a beautiful line of waterproof (tarnish-resistant) jewelry to help the everyday woman feel more confident and "put together"! A portion of all sales goes back to help women and children in need. Thank you for changing lives with us!

"Béljoy was born in my season of “yes.” At the time, I was in a season of saying “yes” to God and seeing what He would do. After taking a break from design to raise my three kids, my husband and I started to feel God lead us to help the people of Haiti by creating jobs. Our love for the Haitian people and the lack of employment options inspired me to return to designing jewelry. We had a vision to create opportunities for the people of Haiti to earn money through honest and dignified work. We said “yes” and God blessed it.

My husband’s family has a long standing relationship with Haitian Christian Mission in Fond Parisien and several other orphanages and organizations within the country. These relationships opened our eyes to the need in Haiti and helped lay the groundwork for Béljoy. Béljoy now enjoys a strategic partnership with Touch of Hope Haiti and the Starfish Program. 

I could never have dreamed up a job like this. Only God could have lead me to start a business in a chaotic third world country, but I love it. I love to watch lives being changed. I love seeing the ladies on our team providing for their children. I love that all of their kids are in school now and their health and lives are improving. The women inspire me. Their days are hard, but they are so thankful for all they have.

Our Name: ‘Béljoy’

The Haitian people have changed our lives, showing us that true joy, despite circumstance, can only come from Jesus. That joy inspires the name Béljoy: BÉL means beautiful in Haiti's native language of Creole. The Haitians’ glad hearts are beautiful and their faces are a clear reflection of the JOY they have."
