Why this cause
Melo Candle Lab was founded on the belief that a small business can carry something bigger than itself. Survivors rebuilding their lives need resources that are steady, not occasional: housing, advocacy, counseling, a phone number that answers. Five percent of what we make goes toward that work, in every season, whether it's a strong month or a slow one.
Where it goes
Organizations serving survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking in Virginia and surrounding States.
How we calculate it
We give 5% of net sales — our total sales minus sales tax, shipping, and refunds. We run the numbers at the close of every month and send the donation quarterly. No fine print, no minimum thresholds, no caps.
