Candles for a Cause

With a family history of public service, including generations of teachers, Castine Candle Company is dedicating a percentage of its online sales to Candles for a Cause. Each quarter, we will choose a nonprofit to receive the proceeds, and we invite your ideas! We review all requests and select a choice few.

Castine Candle Company has partnered with the following organizations for Candles for a Cause:
