From O Magazine:
After a decade of bonding over deadlines, Lee Clifford and Julie Schlosser linked
up to create a charming new form of philanthropy. As editors at Fortune magazine,
they covered everything from the rise and fall of corporate titans to whether office
parties are a faux pas during an economic slump. While brainstorming topics for the
column they coedited by "shouting across the hall," Clifford says, they became friends.
Less publicly, the colleagues talked about taking a cue from the inspiring entrepreneurs
they profiled. Since both women were involved in nonprofit work in their downtime,
they imagined a business with a philanthropic angle. Schlosser - who'd always admired
her mother's (Ellen Schlosser) charm bracelet - envisioned a jewelry line in which
different charms would benefit different charities.
