Finding a good quality candle to sell as a fundraiser is difficult. Most of the candles offered for fundraising give off a weak fragrance; they don’t last very long, and to top it off, they’re much smaller than what’s shown on the brochure.
On the other hand, Heartland Candles is the #1 selling country jar brand in the Southeast and is rapidly becoming a national brand that competes head-to-head with Yankee Candle in the retail market. Their success is due to the premium quality of the Wax and Fragrances that go into every candle.
They use only USA-made premium waxes that promote longer burn times to make their candles. Their fragrance oils are also USA-made products, and they use the top fragrances tolerable by the diverse types of waxes used. Most of their candles feature a 5.5% fragrance load, typically 20-40% more than most other candle companies.
Heartland Candles is proud to offer various products, including traditional paraffin mottling wax candles, cleaner soy wax candles, and unique gel wax candles with fruit inclusions. This diversity offers something for every type of candle consumer.
So, if you’re looking for a great candle fundraising program, don’t just sell one that fundraiser companies only distribute. Make sure you sell candles that are also offered to the retail market. The reason is simple. To be able to compete in retail, quality, and price are paramount. Said another way, our candles must be the best.

Candle Maintenance Tips
Tips for getting the very best and most memorable candle-burning experience:
- Always trim the wicks to ¼ in length. This should be done throughout the burn and before relighting each time. This allows the correct size wick flame and will get the longest burn time. If your flame is too big at any time, the wick is too long, so make sure to trim it.
- Always burn your candles long enough to melt the wax across the container before extinguishing the flame. This may take 2-3 hours, depending on the candle and the type of wax.
- Always follow the safety instructions on each candle. Doing this assures you of a safe burn.
