Every Candle Tells a Story — Handcrafted by Adults Facing Barriers to Employment
-
75% of adults with disabilities are unemployed - we're changing that
-
While many brands focus solely on fragrance or design, we combine high-end, clean-burning candles with a mission to tackle the fact that over 75% of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities are unemployed. Every candle is handcrafted in small batches by our artisans, with each one including a calling card that shares the maker’s story. Customers don’t just get a premium product, they become part of creating meaningful, lasting change.
Light a candle. Change a life. Luxury handcrafted candles by adults facing barriers to employment.
The WeCandle Effect
-
Over 75% of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities are unemployed.
WeCandle creates fairly paid, inclusive jobs where artisans can build skills, gain independence, and take pride in their work.
-
Most mass-produced candles use paraffin wax and other harmful ingredients that can be dangerous.
We handcraft small-batch candles with clean, non-toxic materials like coconut soy wax for a safer, more luxurious burn.
-
A gift that feels personal and makes a difference in multiple people's lives.
Every WeCandle includes the story of its maker, turning each purchase into a meaningful connection that lasts long after the candle is gone.
