Giving Light: How LINNEA® Illuminates Communities Beyond Scent

LINNEA Giving Light Program Logo

At LINNEA®, we believe in more than just creating beautiful products—we're dedicated to making a positive impact through mindful actions and charitable efforts. Our Giving Light program is an extension of our mission to bring light into the world, not only through the glow of our candles but through meaningful community initiatives and partnerships. This program allows us to support causes close to our hearts, from environmental sustainability to hunger relief and beyond. By connecting with impactful organizations, we are proud to be part of the change we wish to see in the world. 

What is the Giving Light Program? 

Launched in 2020, the Giving Light program is our way of illuminating communities beyond fragrance. With this program, we contribute to organizations dedicated to supporting the environment, providing for those in need, and advancing critical medical research. Each year, we look for ways to expand our impact, ensuring our efforts align with LINNEA®’s mission of mindfulness and sustainability. 

Our Ongoing Impact: 

Thanks to the support of our customers and partners, the Giving Light program has achieved incredible milestones, making a tangible difference in various areas. Here are a few of the highlights: 

  • $37,228 donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Every October, LINNEA® donates to NBCF, advancing research and raising awareness about breast cancer.  
  • 450,000 meals donated to Feeding America since 2021. Each November, LINNEA® donates to Feeding America to help provide nutritious food for families in need. 
  • 29,134 trees planted through One Tree Planted. As a distinguished donor, our contributions have been and continue to be essential to the restoration and conservation of forests worldwide. 

Additionally, since 2013, all our candle vessels are cleaned and wicked by Janus Developmental Services, an organization that provides work opportunities for people with different abilities, helping build confidence and independence. 

Expanding Our Reach: Supporting Alzheimer’s Research

We are proud to announce that our Giving Light program is expanding to support another crucial cause—Alzheimer’s research. This September, LINNEA® team members have participated in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer's®, bringing attention and raising $10,580 for this critical issue. By supporting Alzheimer’s research, we are committed to lighting the way toward a future with more understanding and resources to combat this disease. Our Team Page is still live, if you would like to donate, visit: LINNEA Team Page.

At LINNEA®, giving light means more than offering a candle—it means giving hope, fostering change, and building a brighter future for all. We are endlessly grateful to our community for helping us extend our light to those who need it most. Together, we can continue making a difference, one candle at a time.
