Jewelry Benefits Foundation

Jewelry designer Jane Heart has introduced a collection of silver and gold jewelry depicting 1973 Triple Crown winner Secretariat, one of the most beloved Thoroughbred racehorses in American history. "I am honored to have the license to design jewelry for Secretariat," Heart said. "He followed his heart with his tremendous passion for running and has been an inspiration to me to continue to follow my own heart. May these designs of Secretariat also inspire you to pursue your dreams and reach the highest level of your ability." Each hand-crafted piece is engraved with "Secretariat" on the back and includes a blue and white checkered commemorative card with the inscription "Keep The Big Red Flame Burning," a reference to the champion's nickname, Big Red. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the jewelry benefits the Secretariat Foundation, a nonprofit organization begun by the horse's owner, Penny Chenery. The foundation supports Thoroughbred horse charities, including retirement and rehabilitation facilities and veterinary research for laminitis, the disease from which Secretariat succumbed in 1989. The jewelry is available online at www.janeheart.com, www.secretariat. com, Keeneland Gift Shop, Kentucky Horse Park Gift Shop, Kentucky Derby Museum Gift Shop and Santa Anita Gift Shop.

Jane Heart announces the introduction of her original, licensed jewelry designs of the incomparable 1973 Triple Crown Winner Secretariat. America's champion, fondly known as Big Red, became a hero and a symbol for hope. His legacy as the greatest racehorse of all time has endured to this day.

"I am honored to have the license to design jewelry for Secretariat. He, indeed, followed his heart with his tremendous passion for running and has been an inspiration to me to continue to follow my own heart. Being an extra in the movie was indeed a thrill, and later seeing it to experience the drive and confidence of Mrs. Chenery achieving her dreams was a memorable event for me. The voice of Chic Anderson from CBS television said it all...."he is running like a tremendous machine!" May these designs of Secretariat also inspire you to pursue your dreams and reach the highest level of your ability."

All Jane Heart Secretariat designs are made and hand finished in Arizona. The styles include a large and small pendant, charm, charm bracelet, brooch, cuff links, small lapel pin, and earrings.

The Key To A Joyful Life....

Follow Your Heart Following my heart has been a recurrent theme through out my life...sometimes following and sometimes not, but trying to stay on the path of what brings me joy in where I want to be and what I want to do. The heart symbol is such a profound one and the heart itself does literally guide us on our journey if we tap into its potential. The key symbol is also wonderful as a key can unlock doors...even doors to the heart...and brings us new opportunities in all areas of our lives. So what is more perfect than a heart key to tie the two together! And those of us who love horses have the horse head in addition. Horse represents power to use our talents and skills, freedom, travel, and strength to name just a few of this wonderful animal's symbols. Putting the three together, whether on the large key or the circle pendant, make for a pendant with incredible meaning. Select your favorite for yourself or a gift for someone special. Other horse heads not shown may also be available.

BARBARO JEWELRY

Jane Heart announces the introduction of her original, licensed jewelry designs of the charismatic race horse Barbaro. Through his valiant fight to recover from a broken leg and then laminitis, he touched our hearts with his courage and incredible spirit. In cooperation with Gretchen Jackson, Jane has adapted a favorite picture of Barbaro, looking out of his stall the morning of the Preakness, to an inspirational heart design. "Our powerful heart center is our guide in this world to help us on our path. It aligns us and helps us stay true to ourselves if we listen and follow its messages. As we know, Barbaro had an incredible amount of heart and was destined for greatness with his speed and love of racing. This design, whether we wear it or just look at it, will be an inspirational reminder of the great heart of Barbaro and give us hope and courage."

"Mrs. Jackson said Barbaro had a "way of looking, of knowing." Maybe he knew he had a special mission that would have an impact on the future of the wellness of all horses. From the establishment of many research funds, to legislation for the protection of horses, Barbaro has produced a groundswell that is his legacy. His name will endure forever, and record how he inspired many to make strides forward that will help his fellow horses and those who
love and care for them. Barbaro has pointed the way for us to do the same - to follow his lead and be of service and
enrich this world through worthy causes that need champions. He has shown us that each of us has a unique and special purpose, and that we can help others whether it be man or animals in very important ways."

"We also learned other things from Barbaro that we can apply to our lives every day. He inspired us in many ways, by first showing us how it feels to win when we follow our hearts and our passion by developing our talents and strengths. He showed us how to handle adversity with calmness, intelligence, a remarkable spirit, and a strong will to live. Barbaro also brought us all together and proved that we are all connected through the power of love."

"When Mrs. Jackson spoke about Barbaro, she hoped that "each of us might find a certain path that interests us" in regard to horses. Mine was to find a cause to support that would benefit horses and their owners through my jewelry designs. When I read about the Laminitis Fund, I immediately knew that this was my direction. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of each piece will go to the Fund for Laminitis Research at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine. I am truly grateful that I was inspired by Barbaro to design this jewelry, and honored that Mr. and Mrs. Jackson granted me the license. I thank you, in advance, for your support of the Laminitis Fund through the purchase of these keepsake pieces. May these designs of Barbaro inspire you on your life's journey, and his heart, spirit, and guidance be with you always. With his heart...he inspires ours."
The first Jane Heart designs of Barbaro are a heart brooch or tie tack pin that retail for $210 and the heart pendant on a snake chain for $235 in sterling silver. This design will also be available in gold. Other styles and Limited Edition pieces will be announced as they are developed.

All Jane Heart designs are made and hand finished in Arizona. Each piece has the Barbaro trademark stamp on the back above the Jane Heart logo stamp and arrives in a gift box with a commemorative card with the message..."With his heart...he inspires ours." The designs are available to order on line at www.janeheart.com with delivery by April 10, 2008. Retail locations will be announced at a later date.

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of each piece will go to the Fund for Laminitis Research at the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine.

CHARM NECKLACE

Jane Heart introduces the charm necklace with her equestrian designs to show the close bond between horse and rider. Jane's interpretation of this popular trend includes four symbols to help guide you on your path to achieving your heart's desires and lifetime goals. "Today in this world, it is more important than ever that we envision our path in life and fulfill our own personal dreams while developing and using our talents to be of service and bring love, joy, and peace to the world. Each of us has something to contribute and many of us, including myself, have not yet reached our potential. Besides being fun to wear, the necklace with your favorite horse head is a reminder to help you make the daily decisions of life that are true for you."

"The charms hang from a circle which symbolizes the opening of pathways and wholeness. Through the heart we align ourselves, as it gives us a sense of unity and the ability to see our direction clearly. The horse stands for freedom, power for sharing our gifts and talents, and travel. Turquoise is a stone for healing, protection, strength, and support. It also opens the heart for giving and receiving, and the throat for communication and creativity. The megaphone shape is perfect for calling to you everything you need to help you travel on your path to following your dreams and reaching your potential."

"The beauty of this necklace is that each person can personalize the message of the charms to make it more meaningful for them. For example, the circle is an "O" ring and can also be the winner's circle or a metered circle. A variety of horse heads are available including several different breeds."

Jane is currently writing her first book titled Follow Your Heart - Follow your Dreams. It will be a composite of the story of her path and the stories of others who have followed their heart and have or are in the process of realizing their dreams. If you have a life path story that you would like Jane to consider including that would be an inspiration to others, please mail to:
