Only a few people are interested in launching a candle
fundraiser because few people know how to make candles. Candle
making does not require a lot of money because the materials are

know what they are doing. Encourage them to use their creative
ideas to bring out the best in them. Let them know that it is
not just about candle making but making candles with style that
the people will love and appreciate and most importantly, want
to buy!
Of course in any fundraising or business, you need to have
enough money to start so that things run smoothly. You can set

to make, whether you want candles made out of bees wax or
paraffin candles. The production costs of paraffin candles is
lower that that of bees wax. If you don't have a very big

candle fundraiser, you can ask people who have done one already.
