Aldo's Jewelry Shines Spotlight on World Vision

Aldo's Jewelry Shines Spotlight on World Vision

Veteran jeweler Aldo Santona often holds a reputation for the finest boutqiue in town. But more than than selling precious gems and diamonds, the Italian-American also adheres to a deep religious faith and sense of service to those in desperation.

With every item purchased in Aldo's store, a portion of the money goes to children and people around the world in poverty or fleeing from war. Aldo explained his passion for helping others to the Local News: "I feel that all people deserve to live lives of dignity, we are all made in God's image. Whatever gold is worth, whatever diamonds are worth, people are worth in infinite amount more and I will always try to do my best to give back as my saviour has instructed me."

Santona opened his jewelry store in 1979. His time in the industry dates back to the 1970s in his native Sardinia. Visit aldosfinejewelry.com. Aldo's Fine Jewelry is located at 4662 S Kirkman Rd, Orlando, FL 32811.
