Why We Exist
Hi! My name is Mary, and I am the founder and creator of Waleska Candle Co. The inspiration behind this venture is my desire to make spaces beautiful with the most impact by way of supporting students attending Christian summer camps, specifically those organized by FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes). My own personal faith journey was significantly impacted by summer camps, and I am passionate about providing the same opportunity to the next generation. Currently, I am employed by FCA at Reinhardt University in Waleska, GA. I chose the name Waleska Candle Co to honor the place where I have witnessed the transformative power of God in the lives of numerous students. To further this cause, 20% of the profits from Waleska Candle Co will be donated to FCA to help college students attend these life-changing summer camps. Would you like to join me in this mission to leave an eternal impact?
Our Mission and Vision
We are proud to partner with FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes) in their mission to care for the next generation. We believe that each student should have the opportunity to attend a summer camp without having to worry whether or not they will be able to afford it. Each sale that we make here with Waleska Candle Co will go towards helping a student go to an FCA Camp this summer.
You may wonder what sports and candles have in common. Both candle making and playing sports can glorify God, and they both strike up good conversations. Don't you want a candle that has a personal story attached to it? Because Waleska Candle Co believes every candle should!
