All that glitters isn't gold, but this glamorous Pyrite stone is just as good. Also known as “Fool’s gold” because of its shimmery golden hue. If you're lacking motivation or physical strength, this power stone can harness the earth element, the powerful energies that ground you & guide you to a place of a higher wisdom.

Hematite stone's powerfully earthy energy means that it can be used for almost any project that involves the power of the element of Earth. Which, is the element that rules the physical world, money, practical thinking, & decision-making. 

It balances its user’s self-esteem & self-vision by sweeping away all the negativity that so often clouds our understanding of ourselves. By using Hematite, you make way for more positive & grounding energies to enter into your life. If you tend to have a “flighty” mind, prone to distraction, lack of focus, or anxiety, or even if you feel that you have a strong imagination, but that it’s impacting you negatively, this could be the perfect stone for you giving you an increased ability to focus your mind in a productive way, rather than becoming psychically distracted.

This handcrafted designer stone bracelet with Pyrite & Hematite is designed to empower you with motivation & determination toward your journey to success. 

The organization's namesake, Ali Forney, was a gender-nonconforming teen who fled his home at 13. He entered the foster care system where he bounced around to several homes, and was beaten & abused. Ali ended up living on the streets at the age of 15. Ali was dedicated to helping other young people & publicly advocated for the safety of homeless LGBT youth. Tragically, in December of 1997, Ali was murdered in Harlem—shot in the head & left for dead. 

Committed to saving the lives of LGBTQ young people, in 2002 Carl Siciliano founded the Ali Forney Center (AFC) in memory of Ali. Since AFC's launch with just six beds in a church basement, the organization has grown to become the largest agency dedicated to LGBTQ homeless youths in the country—assisting nearly 1,400 youths per year through a 24-hour Drop-In Center which provides over 70,000 meals annually, medical & mental health services through an on-site clinic, and a scattered-site housing program.

Their mission is to provide LGBTQ young people with housing & a continuum of supportive services to help them thrive & prepare them for independent living.

AFC has been heralded for its full continuum of care approach to services for LGBTQ homeless youth. AFC's founder, Carl Siciliano, was named a White House Champion of Change by President Obama citing the wide recognition AFC's programs have received for their quality & innovation.

5% of the selling price of every bracelet will be donated to Ali Forney Center.
