The Celebration Candle Collection represents a "scentiment" for every journey. Encased in a reusable cement vessel, each candle represents a journey of love.
These candles are handcrafted in the United States by survivors of human trafficking. “Making our candles is the most important thing I do. Healing, hope, and unconditional love go into each one."
Thistle Farms is a nonprofit social enterprise dedicated to helping women survivors recover and heal. They do this by providing a safe place to live, a meaningful job, and a lifelong sisterhood of support.
Please be aware that because they source pure essential oils, there will be tone variations in the color of the candle you may receive.

Each piece of Jewelery is handmade with love by an artisan from one of our sanctuaries in India, Uganda, Mexico, or the Philippines
“I’m laughing because look at us…we’re making jewelry… I never believed this would happen!”– Seema*, India
There is nothing more powerful than the laughter and smile from a rescued girl. It’s a long journey before it emerges, but when it does, expect dignity and transformation to follow. JOIN US as we continue to make a significant impact in the lives of the girls and women we serve.
