STORY:

"❤️ In 2012 my dear friend, neighbor and tribal relative Faith Hedgepeth was brutally murdered in her off campus apartment while studying at the UNC Chapel Hill. Cops made an arrest a few years ago, however still her case is still open. This shocked our community and it shocked me in a way I never imagined. 🌎 I am sharing this story with you because too many of our indigenous women and girls are missing and murdered. Their cases are unsolved.

10% of each sale of these earrings will go towards the Faith's Smile Scholarship. A scholarship established by Faith's family that awards High School Seniors with college scholarships."
