About Caritas Candles
Our Story
At Caritas Candles, we believe in lighting up lives with more than just fragrance. Rooted in the Latin word Caritas, meaning love and compassion, our brand is built on the principles of kindness, sustainability, and giving back.
Our candles are crafted with 100% pure soy wax and wood wicks, ensuring that they are as gentle on the environment as they are on your senses. Each fragrance is carefully selected and entirely vegan-friendly reflecting out commitment to ethical luxury.
But our mission goes beyond creating beautiful candles. We believe in the power of giving, which is why we donate a portion of our products to charities. These unique candles found in charity shops are crafted in vessels which are also purchased from charity shops, making each one a rare find. When you choose Caritas, you're not just purchasing a candle - you're contributing to a brighter, more compassionate world.
Join us in spreading warmth and light, one candle at a time.
Our Candles
Our candles are made using 100% natural soy wax, making them vegan friendly and environmentally sustainable. Soy wax also offers cleaner burning characteristics compared to conventional blended or paraffin waxes, ensuring a healthier and safer candle experience.
Experience the difference with our candles, as the natural soy wax not only burns longer but also releases a more subtle and pleasant fragrance, creating a calming and soothing atmosphere in your home.
Charitable Giving and Eco-Friendly Candles
At Caritas Candles, we believe in creating more than just beautifully fragranced candles; we’re committed to making a positive impact on the world around us. Our eco-friendly soy wax candles are hand-poured with love and care, using only vegan-friendly, sustainable materials, including soy wax and natural fragrance oils. One of our proudest initiatives is our dedication to charitable giving. A special range of our candles is made using unique vessels purchased from local charity shops. Once these vessels are filled with our luxurious soy candles, they are returned to the same charity shops, allowing us to support them twice—first through the purchase and again through the donation of the finished candle. This approach not only reduces waste but also creates a beautiful cycle of giving back.
In addition to our charity shop initiative, we pledge to donate 15% of all sales to charitable causes. What makes this even more special is that we offer our customers the opportunity to choose which charity their purchase will support. Whether it’s a local cause close to your heart or a global mission, we believe in empowering our customers to make a meaningful difference. At Caritas Candles, every purchase lights up more than just your home—it illuminates lives around the world.
