A Fruitful Season
In 2013, Ketterman's was able to give nearly $15,000 to charities through the First Fruits program. For over ten years, on the first business day of each month, the Ketterman family has chosen an organization to receive 10% of all receipts. Twelve groups are selected by the family on an annual basis to receive this opportunity.
This month's organization has a closer tie to the family than most. The Lombardi Cancer Center is where Hattie, Ketterman Daughter number three, was first treated for her thyroid cancer. Through her multiple surgeries and treatments over her six and a half year fight, the doctors and staff there took such great care of her and our family, that we continue to support them today.
Our wonderful customers have made a point to think ahead and make special purchases on these special days to maximize our giving to this and other local and world-wide organizations. We will continue to support Georgetown University Hospital and the Lombardi Cancer Center so that more patients and their families can receive the same level of exceptional care as we did throughout Hattie's cancer battle.
Gifts that Give Back
Ketterman's is also honored to have partnered with companies that care about a cure. Here are several opportunities for your purchase to make a difference over the next month.
Brighton Power of Pink
Since 2004, Brighton and Brighton retailers have donated more than 5.3 million dollars to breast cancer research nationwide through their Power of Pink bracelet sales. This year, Ketterman's will give $5 from the sale of each bracelet to a local cancer charity, in addition to Brighton's gift.
Pandora PINK Collection
PANDORA is supporting the National Breast Cancer Foundation with this year's PINK Collection sales. Five percent of sales from these three "moments" charms will be gifted to the NBCF, because every moment is worth fighting for.

"The Best Thing We Do!"
That's how Tammi Ketterman describes the Charm Girl Program at Kettermans. If you have been to Kettermans during the Christmas Season in the past few years, you may have noticed some lovely young lady's assisting us with guest services. Back in 2008 Kettermans invited twelve young ladies between the ages of 13 to 16, to join us for the holidays. They were able to represent a charity or ministry of their choice and allowed to gain experience in the business world. The Program has grown over the years to as many as forty girls. If you have served as a Charm girl in the past, Thank You! If your daughter has served as a Charm girl in the past, Thank YOU!! And if you know of a young lady who would like to join an elite group of exceptional Charm Girls, It's that TIME OF YEAR AGAIN! The Kettermans Charm Girl application can be found here.
Be Charming...Always!

Feature Product
-Makur - Morganite-
Ketterman's was introduced to the Makur family by one of our dear friends and long time salesmen at the JCK Show in Las Vegas in June. The jewelry pieces were beautiful and well made, but the family and the history of the stone was what made the sale. The family started their business in 1995 with the goal of creating exceptionally beautiful and well crafted jewelry. The husband and wife team has maintained this goal and continues to exceed customer expectations.
Makur only works in Morganite and diamonds for their colored stone jewelry. In the jewelry industry, they are know for this fact as the "best in Morganite."  Morganite is a pink to peach colored stone that was named in 1910 after banker and gemstone enthusiast J.P. Morgan.
Also known as pink beryl it is in the same stone family as Emerald and Aquamarine, however it is the presence of manganese that gives the stone its pink color.
Morganite is known as the crystal of Divine Love, and thus is a popular engagement ring centerpiece.
