I Am Brave Drop Earrings - Rose Gold

Together with women who have been freed from human trafficking, Eden creates precious jewellery that carries their story.

Be Light. Bring Hope. Share Love.

Eden's I Am Brave Drop Earrings embody Mya Mya's bravery by spelling out "I am brave" in Burmese in the design. The 1.6" and 0.8" diameter pendants come in natural, 18K gold-plated, and rose-gold plated stainless steel on 316 medical-grade stainless steel posts.

Courage and boldness are hidden treasures that are often buried within us and sometimes it is only in the darkest moments that we can find them to rise up against injustice, pain, hurt, and shame.  

The Hidden Treasures Collection brings to light Mya Mya’s story, who in the face of injustice and trials, stood up for truth. 

At thirteen, Mya Mya was sent to a factory to support her impoverished family. While there, she was lured into a web of lies and was sold to a man who bought her virginity. After this, a series of tragic events befell her. In her darkest moments, she dreamed of freedom, she held onto a hope that one day she would be liberated. Her story of escape sparks hope in so many women who have faced similar exploitation and distortions of reality. Mya Mya continues to remind us that hope does not disappoint.

Eden’s programs are based in South-East Asia which is host to more than half of the global total of human trafficking victims.

In 2014 Eden began its programs in Myanmar, a nation that has been a hotbed for human trafficking for years. Political instability, natural disasters, and internal ethnic infighting have led to a devastating lack of opportunity for the people of Myanmar.

Poverty and political unrest are at the heart of Myanmar's human trafficking crisis, which has only grown more severe over recent years. The economic collapse, brought on by the pandemic and political crisis, has exacerbated the level of human trafficking and the need for non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and other not-for-profit organizations like Eden to fill this void and provide essential support to victims of human trafficking and sexual exploitation.

Through a relationship-focused and trauma-informed approach to programming, Eden is able to reach both individuals at high risk of trafficking and victims of human trafficking in the red-light districts of Yangon, and Northern and Eastern Shan state. This access has allowed Eden to identify and assist previously unknown victims of human trafficking, as well as collect vital migration tracking data. This unique design of programming is proven to address the root cause of their trafficking by reducing re-trafficking rates and facilitating sustainable reintegration after program graduation.

All profits from our jewelry sales directly benefit the women at Eden and support the following programs:
