As the head of her company, Nini Jewels, she carries on a family tradition started by her grandmother in the early 1900s in Bangkok, Thailand, creating masterpieces from the rarest and most beautiful gems from around the world.  Another family tradition is community service.  She is a frequent supporter of many charitable causes.

Individual donors to the Countdown 2 Kona Fundraiser for LLS will get one chance to receive these earrings for every $25 donated directly to the charity through Braate's fundraising page (CLICK HERE).  The recipient will be chosen at random by Nini Jewels on October 1 from all eligible entries received through 11:59 p.m. CDT on September 30.

Your donation is critical to forge ahead with the battle to beat blood cancer.  Every three minutes, someone in the U.S. is diagnosed with some form of blood cancer.  Every nine minutes, someone in the U.S. dies of blood cancer.  One third of those diagnosed with blood cancer do not live five years beyond diagnosis.  These are all frightening statistics that the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society works tirelessly to erase through research to find a cure and financial aid to make sure the best healthcare is available to all patients, especially those who could not otherwise afford treatment.
