Offering a great product is good business but utilizing your products to benefit those in need is commitment. The Bridgewater Candle Company is committed to providing more than inspiring scents with their popular candle line. By participating in their Light a Candle, Feed a Child program you can help nourish a hungry child. It is so easy and this is a purchase with big rewards for you and your customers.
How It Started
Established in 1998 in Spartanburg, South Carolina, Bridgewater Candle Company quickly became a leader in the candle market with a reputation for its clean burning candles, full fragranced products and passionate sales team.
In 2011, Bridgewater employees, along with four Authorized Dealers, visited an orphanage in Port-au-Prince, Haiti supported by Rice Bowls.
This life changing experience prompted the company to create the Light a Candle, Feed a Child program where a portion of each jar candle sale is donated directly to Rice Bowls, a dedicated non-profit whose mission is to feed orphaned children worldwide.
Why It Works
Bridgewater products are incredibly vibrant gifts with great variety. The scents sell themselves and make wonderfully attractive additions to homes and offices. Their biggest seller is an elegant long-burning jar candle carefully produced in the U.S. and packaged with eye-catching decorative lids & great photo description tags.
These candles are the ambassadors of the donation program. With each purchase, you give two gifts – the recipient as well as a meal to a needy child. By offering this product line at your business, you are giving the opportunity for a valuable sale to have a deeper world-conscious meaning to you and your clients.
The Big Pay Off
When you make helping others easy, people do it and feel great about it! If you give customers the option, buying from Bridgewater Candle Company is the clear choice.
In 2012 with what is becoming an annual tradition, Bridgewater visited Honduras to see the impact this program had on these sweet children. If you need proof Light a Candle, Feed a Child is working, you’ll find it, plus a pick-me-up, on the website’s blog. Everyone will enjoy seeing beautiful photos and stories from these smiling children that have been helped by jar candle purchases. The first hand account of these travels is truly unforgettable.
Bridgewater’s success with this program shows with the release of their Sweet Grace Special Edition Candle. This donation product takes an even bigger step by providing an entire week of meals and comes specially packaged with a child’s photo and story. Making this individual connection warms hearts and minds like no other item.
Bridgewater Candle Company is committed to sharing their warmth and hospitality with the world. Its simple to join in and help change lives.
