Founder Amy Fabian’s mission has always been about loving others. More specifically, offering tangible love to those who are vulnerable, oppressed, living in poverty, and seeking refuge.

During her college years at Michigan State University Amy saw first-hand the atrocities that refugees experienced in seeking a safe place to live. She started volunteering with refugee children at an elementary school and saw that many of the students did not have the basic items they needed to thrive. This led her to the question, “What can we do?”

After asking refugee families about the needs of the local refugee community, Amy discovered that one of primary needs was practical household items. These items that can help bring dignity to those seeking refuge in America and allow their house to feel like a home. During 2020, amidst the COVID-19 crisis, Amy decided to take action and Exodus Candle Co. was born

When thinking of products that help your house feel more like a home, candles immediately come to mind. However, many candles are made with chemicals and products like phthalates, lead, paraffin wax, and other toxins. These ingredients can be harmful to humans and the environment. At Exodus Candle Co., we are committed to sustainably producing social impact that smell great and add a cozy, welcoming touch to any home. We use 100% soy wax with soybeans grown in America’s Midwest and a lead-free cotton wick. Our fresh scents are made with an essential oil and fragrance oil blend. 1/4 of the profits will go to local refugees.

We welcome you to join Exodus Candle Co. to further our mission  of inspiring hope and love in local refugee communities. With every candle you purchase, the world will get a little brighter.
