REGINA, Saskatchewan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

The Hillberg & Berk Spring/Summer '12 Collection, NOQO RAJO – The Collection of Hope, will launch January 30. Featured in this collection is Amanda Lindhout, Canadian journalist who was kidnapped and held hostage in Somalia for 15 months before being released. Lindhout heads up The Global Enrichment Foundation (GEF), to which Hillberg & Berk will donate $15,000 through this collection to benefit Somali refugee women.

The Noqo Rajo collection was designed on inspiration from tribes of Africa. On a recent trip to Africa, H&B CEO Rachel Mielke was introduced to a small group of Somali refugee women who all share similar stories of struggle, pain and loss. The women however, have incredible hope for the future. Together Lindhout and Mielke wish to raise awareness and hope for these and similar women through the Noqo Rajo collection and the GEF.

For Spring/Summer '12, Hillberg & Berk offers a natural colour palette featuring rose gold, peach tones, neutrals and copper. Pieces to watch for are the 44-inch layering necklaces which consumers can mix and match or purchase in sets and the intricately crafted couture necklaces, which are limited to 20 pieces total. The collection of earrings, bracelets, clusters and necklaces ranges from $65 – $2850 in price.
