Psalm 23 Jewelry Partners With Local Non-Profit Disabled Organization for Growing Retail Network

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif., Feb. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- After an extensive search for quality staff and opportunities to properly service their growing retail network, Psalm 23 Jewelry (http://www.psalm23jewelry.com/) pieces are now assembled and packaged by the well-trained staff at OPARC, a local non-profit organization with a mission to enable people with disabilities to achieve their full potential. Expansion of the Psalm 23 Jewelry extended line of bracelets, necklaces, pendants, earrings and rings and the simultaneous growth of a national retail network created a need for a larger staff that could handle larger quantities in a timely manner.

Laura Kramer, President, Jewelry Designer, and Inspirational Speaker said, "We are blessed to have formed a relationship with OPARC. Our relationship with them has enabled us to provide adults with disabilities and vocational barriers with additional employment opportunities in the areas of jewelry assembly and packaging. Without a doubt, working with OPARC has become a part of our mission. We love the people there -- their dedication, excitement, focus on quality and spirit. They have welcomed our pieces and we look forward to our growing relationship with them."

OPARC's capable staff of over 200 employees is located in Montclair, within minutes of Psalm 23 Jewelry's offices in Rancho Cucamonga. "We were able to find this Inland Empire organization only after we searched nationwide. Sometimes local resources are overlooked and the transition to OPARC has been a real blessing for us both to manufacture locally and to help out these hard-working people," says Gerhard Kramer, Marketing Director. He continued, "They assemble and package each piece with a fast turnaround. We provide them with Sterling silver and Swarovski crystals, and they turn them into our Psalm 23 Jewelry designs." Original plans to outsource to foreign countries and outlying areas were scrapped with the discovery of OPARC's ability to locally produce the Sterling Silver and Swarovski crystal jewelry and the corporation's dedication to be able to give back to this local community.
