Canada's Anne Sportun Fine Jewelry has teamed up with The Love Club, a grassroots initiative supporting mothers and babies in need across Ontario for a collaborative Anne Sportun x The Love Club bracelet launch.
Founded in early 2024 by Toronto stylist and journalist Lauren Walker-Lee, The Love Club was born from a simple act of kindness, focused on delivering baby essentials to mothers in need. Lauren later teamed up with her network to create Club Kid, a sustainable baby clothing line using surplus fabric, and crafted by local manufacturers and volunteers.
To help further The Love Club's mission, Anne Sportun co-owner and new mom Haley Woodbury, designed a special limited-edition bracelet featuring a hand-carved solid gold heart on a soft linen tie. Twenty-five percent of proceeds from the sales of the Anne Sportun x The Love Club bracelet will go directly to The Love Club, supporting families across the province. Available in 14K yellow or white gold with three linen cord options, the accessory piece retails for CAD $225 and can be found at AnneSportun.com or the brand's flagship store, located at 742 Queen Street West, Toronto.
