The third annual Jewelry Love event will be at 1:30 p.m. Nov. 15 at Summerset at Frick Park Clubhouse in Squirrel Hill.

It was started by Pittsburgh Allderdice High School teacher Julie Farber, who teaches a jewelry-making class at the Squirrel Hill school, after a mother of one of Farber's students died from cancer. The woman had started the company Cancer be Glammed with another student's mother, Lisa Lurie.

Each year, 20 to 25 recipients who have or are battling cancer are identified, and students create jewelry just for them.
