Step-by-Step: How our fundraiser works

1. Place your candle order

Get in touch and we’ll help you plan your fundraiser. We’ll assist you in choosing the right number of candles to help meet your fundraising goal, given your objectives and group size. Delivery is free and usually takes a week or so depending on demand. Remember, you pay nothing upfront, you pay later with the proceeds from your candle sales.

If your group has a logo, send it to us and we’ll put it on the box for free! Having your group’s logo on the box gives your candle sale fundraiser a more branded look, enhances your group’s engagement and reinforces just your cause when selling.

2. Sell the candles & keep the profits

By distributing the candles among your group, giving each member a number to sell, you will speed up your fundraising and create a rewarding collective fundraising experience. When you promote your special cause, your candles will be gladly bought by family, friends, and neighbours alike.

You decide the price for which you sell your candles. Our recommended price range is £16-20, however, since you are raising money for a good cause, they often sell for more! Naturally, the more you sell them for, the more money your group will raise. Set a selling period for your fundraiser, we suggest a focused two-week period.

Fundraising as a collective effort

We believe that fundraising should be a team effort—an opportunity for everyone in your group to contribute and benefit. Whether you’re raising money for a trip, a tournament, or an enriching group activity, working together fosters friendships, shared experiences, and lifelong memories.

By selling together, groups not only reach their goals faster but also build valuable skills like teamwork, communication, financial literacy, and goal-setting, preparing young people for success far beyond fundraising.
