Creating Change

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.
