After seeing the 2004 movie Hotel Rwanda about the Rwandan Genocide, jewelry designer Amy Peterson of Rebel Nell reached out to a friend working at the International Fund for Rwanda. She didn\'t have any money to help, but Amy offered any service she could. In an improbable and amazing sequence of events, she soon found herself making 100 Rwandan Genocide awareness pins to be worn at the 2005 Academy Awards.
Amy sat at home and watched Joan Rivers\' red carpet interviews with Don Cheadle, Sophie Okonedo, Cher, and Santana as they all wore her pin. Amy began selling the pins on her website and donated all labor, costs, and proceeds to the International Fund for Rwanda, raising $5000 for the cause.
This was purchased directly from Amy back in 2005 and is in pristine, new condition.
