Giving back
One candle at a time
Door County Candle Company is more than a candle company. We are a candle company with a cause and a candle company with a mission to help those in need, one candle at a time. With every purchase of your Door County Candle product, a portion gets donated back to charity.
The mission behind
Candles Creating Change™
At Door County Candle Company, our mission is to illuminate lives and create positive change through our Candles Creating Change™ initiative. We believe that every candle has the power to make a difference. With each product we craft and every purchase made, we strive to contribute to causes that make an impact. Our commitment to creating change extends beyond our products – it is a reflection of our values and the impact we hope to make in the world. Together with our customers, we aim to light up lives, ignite hope, and inspire a brighter future.
Ukraine
Candle
In February of 2022, Door County Candle launched a Ukraine candle fundraiser. This fundraiser sparked a light inside of us to use our candles as a way to help those in need. We have raised $1M for Razom for Ukraine to date! This candle was the beginning of our mission to create change with our candles.
