Diamonds Do Good (DDG) is celebrating a summer of milestones that highlight the positive global impact of natural diamonds. In June, DDG hosted its sold-out 2025 Awards Gala in Las Vegas, honoring industry leaders and community champions, including Claudia Cividino of Jared, Tanishq, Sissy’s Log Cabin, and Govind Dholakia.
The evening opened with powerful remarks from Honorable Bogolo Joy Kenewendo, Botswana’s Minister of Minerals and Energy, who underscored the life-changing role diamonds play in her country’s development and prosperity. (click link here for video).
Building on this momentum, DDG in August announced the 10 winners of its 4th Annual Entrepreneurship Grant Program, a beneficiary initiative funded by the support of the industry from the Diamonds Do Good Awards.
The top prize of $20,000 went to Tshireletso Seoromeng (Botswana), with $10,000 awarded to Jerusa Kitoto (Tanzania). Eight additional entrepreneurs from Botswana, Tanzania, Sierra Leone, Namibia, South Africa, and India each received $5,000 to expand their businesses and uplift their communities.
Capping off the season, DDG received a Silver Telly Award in the Business-to-Consumer category for its Video News Release broadcast campaign series, recognized by a panel of over 250 media and technology leaders from Netflix, BBC, Adobe, and Shutterstock.
The campaign was a collaboration between DDG, Elias World Media, and Catapult Media, with dissemination made possible through a grant from the JCK Industry Fund.
“This recognition is a testament to the remarkable work we’ve accomplished together and the compelling story of natural diamonds we’ve been able to share,” said Nancy Orem Lyman, Executive Director of Diamonds Do Good, said, “From celebrating global leaders to empowering local entrepreneurs, this summer has shown what is possible when the industry comes together with purpose.”
Diamonds Do Good extends its gratitude to industry partners for making these initiatives possible and proving that doing good is good business.
