Request for use of Trademark

    
Job's Daughters International

As referenced in SI 3 of the Constitution and Bylaws, the Three Point Emblem Trademark (IYOB FILIAE), the JDI Logo and the name “Job’s Daughters International” are registered Trademarks of Job’s Daughters International.  Use of any of these Trademarks requires permission of the Board of Trustees of the Supreme Guardian Council (SGC). 

As owner of the Trademarks, the SGC has contracts with several jewelry companies that allows them to use the registered emblem(s) on specific jewelry, soft goods and promotional pieces and offer them for sale to Job’s Daughters members and supporters.    

Our Official Jeweler, Doc Morgan Inc. (DMI) has a large range of items in their “Official Jewelry and Accessories” catalog.  As part of their contract, no other individuals or Bethels may produce items bearing the Job’s Daughters’ emblems on items contained in this catalog.  There is also a “first right of refusal” clause in the contract that gives DMI the option of producing any item that is not already contained in their catalog.  This means that before the Board Trademark Liaison can grant permission for use of the trademark(s), you must first contact DMI to obtain a price bid on the items that you are wanting to produce.
