In 2016, I started B&U to help save my fellow soldiers lives, or at least try to give them a second chance. After serving on the front lines in Afghanistan (Infantry & Artillery) at 18 years old and losing many of my friends during battle, I came home with severe PTSD. After nearly a decade of anger and pain I decided to use my struggle for good, and try to help others through their struggle by creating a company everyone can relate to, but can also help improve lives on the backend.
To accomplish this, B&U donate's 20% of net profits to help rehabilitate soldiers & First Responders.

Why Jewelry?
Just like our jewelry, we are all shaped by life experiences that help us become who we are meant to be. Some just see perfect, shiny finished objects. We see the entire journey it took to get there. With a great deal of torture followed by laborous work and great care, they become beautiful.
This is how we view life, remembering that although life can be difficult, over time with patience and care it can become beautiful. Allow your B&U pieces to remind yourself you are strong, and keep pushing forward so you too become the best version of yourself.

Our Mission
Our mission is to save lives. By donating 20% of our net profits, we help fund various Veteran assistance programs around the world that help rehabilitate Veterans for a productive civilian life. The funds go directly to mental health programs, prosthetic limbs, therapy/rehab programs, food/shelter/clothing for homeless Veterans, and many more - including help for their families. We only work with initiatives that put Veterans needs above their own, that stretch every dollar they receive.
