Nurture your friendships, read Cathy's Friendship Blog »
In 2004, after several years of serious health challenges, Friendship Stone Founder and President, Cathy Raff discovered the most beautiful stones she had ever seen while on a visit to South Africa. The splendor of the semi-precious Tiger’s Eyes resonated within her. Depending on their angle, the stones’ colors and striations seemed to change, reminding her that difficulties are often eased by a simple shift in perspective.
Cathy purchased several stones to grace her father’s gravesite, and others to display at home where she continued to marvel at them. She began giving them to friends and family as tokens of affection and encouragement, and the response was resoundingly positive. “I loved the idea of a stone being passed along as a reminder of the importance of friendship, the power of a positive of attitude, and the pleasure of giving,” says Cathy.
After much research, Cathy found that the stunning Tiger’s Eyes came from an impoverished part of South Africa where many homes lacked even running water. After visiting the area, a light went on and Cathy knew in her heart what she must do. She would invite people from all over the world to connect in love and friendship by sharing the stones and, by allocating 10% of the profits to Project South Africa, improve the lives of those in the communities from which they came.
