Ohio-based Jared Jewelers, with three locations in metro Detroit, and Jared Goff, quarterback of the Detroit Lions, celebrated last season’s success by presenting nonprofit Give Merit $50,000 and giving three fans the same Breitling watches Goff presented to his offensive line this year.

Give Merit is a Detroit-based nonprofit whose FATE program aims to help Detroit youth graduate and receive college scholarships.

“Honoring Detroit with Jared Jewelers was a no brainer,” says Goff. “This community and fanbase means so much to me, so I had to go to Jared to close out such an unbelievable season and show my love. The Jared brand is iconic, and their heart is huge. We talked a lot about Detroit’s loyalty and how the city is built on the same drive, grit, and determination that my teammates and I take onto the field every Sunday. Give Merit and these fans are so deserving of recognition.”

Claudia Cividino, president of Jared, says partnering with Goff is more than just building on their names.

“Like Goff, we know Detroit is a special place and are humbled by the dedication the community shows every day,” says Cividino. “It was our shared pleasure to support Give Merit and pay it forward to fans with these Breitling timepieces to match the Detroit offensive line.”
