Candle Fundraiser Scent Varieties
One reason candle fundraisers perform so well is simple: people buy different types of scents. Some supporters prefer warm bakery fragrances, others want something fresh and clean, and many are drawn to fruity or seasonal scents. Offering a wider variety makes it easier for sellers to match a candle to what each buyer already likes.
The Heritage Candle Fundraiser catalog includes 12 hand-poured scents, giving supporters plenty of options and increasing the chances that each seller can make multiple sales.
Popular scent styles in the catalog include:
- Bakery & dessert scents: Baked Apple Pie, Pecan Cobbler, Campfire Treat (New!)
- Fresh & clean fragrances: Rain, Lemongrass & Sage
- Fruit-inspired scents: Georgia Peach, Beachside Coconut, Honey Berry (New!)
- Relaxing & spa-style fragrances: Rejuvenate (Popular), Seamist & Lavender (Popular)
- Warm & cozy favorites: Cinnamon Apple, Warm Home (Popular)
This mix of scent styles helps sellers appeal to a wider range of supporters. Some buyers choose a fresh everyday scent like Rain or Lemongrass & Sage, while others prefer cozy options like Cinnamon Apple or Warm Home. Because the catalog offers multiple fragrance styles, many supporters end up buying two or three candles at once for gifts or different rooms in their home.
When Our Candle Fundraiser Performs Best
Candle fundraisers can run any time of year, but they tend to perform especially well during gift-giving seasons when supporters are already shopping for others. Because candles are practical, decorative, and easy to give as gifts, they fit naturally into many seasonal events.Groups often see strong results during these times:
- Fall fundraisers (September–November) – Perfect timing before the holiday season when supporters are thinking about cozy home scents and gifts.
- Holiday and Christmas fundraising – Candles are one of the most common holiday gifts, making them an easy product for supporters to buy.
- Winter fundraisers – Cinnamon Apple, Campfire Treat, and Baked Apple Pie.
- Spring events and Mother’s Day – Fresh scents like Seamist & Lavender, Georgia Peach, or Honey Berry make great seasonal gifts.
- Teacher appreciation and school events – Candles are simple, thoughtful gifts that parents often purchase for teachers and staff.
Many schools and organizations choose to run candle fundraisers in the fall or early winter because supporters are already planning for holiday gifts. However, with a wide range of scents available, candle fundraisers can work successfully throughout the year.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Heritage Candle Fundraiser
Have questions about how our Heritage Candle Fundraiser works? Find quick answers to the most common questions below.
What is the minimum order requirement?
The minimum order is 150 units to qualify for free shipping. Smaller groups can still participate; orders under 150 units are charged shipping based on the number of brochures sent, total retail, and your location. Orders do not come sorted per participant, so plan a quick sorting session when your candles arrive.
How much profit can our group earn?
Your organization earns a 40% profit on every candle sold, plus the option to choose between a cash-back incentive or a prize program to motivate your sellers.
How does shipping work?
Orders are shipped directly to your organization with free shipping on 150 units or more. All candles are packed securely to prevent damage during transit, and delivery dates are scheduled based on your group’s location.
When Is Payment Due?
Tracy Hamilton Inc. requires full payment before products are shipped, unless other terms were agreed upon. The sponsor is personally responsible for full payment of the invoice. If brochures are shipped and the fundraiser is not run, a fee will be assessed.
What size groups can participate?
The Heritage Candle Fundraiser works well for groups of all sizes, from small church youth groups to large schools and nonprofits. We recommend at least 25 active sellers to maximize your fundraising results.
How long should our candle fundraiser run?
Most candle fundraisers run for 2–3 weeks. This gives sellers enough time to share the catalog with family, coworkers, and neighbors without losing momentum. Shorter campaigns often perform better because sellers stay focused.
Do candle fundraisers work for smaller groups?
Yes. Candle fundraisers work well for small schools, clubs, and community groups because the product has broad appeal. Even a group with 15–20 sellers can generate meaningful fundraising profits.
Are candles difficult to store before distribution?
No. Candles are shelf-stable and easy to store, which makes them much simpler to manage than frozen or refrigerated fundraisers. They can be stored in a classroom, office, or storage room until sellers pick up their orders.
What makes candle fundraisers easier to sell than other products?
Candles are a product that most supporters already buy for their homes. Because they are useful, giftable, and familiar, sellers often find them easier to explain and promote than novelty fundraising items.

FundraisingZone’s Reviews
I am a director at a preschool in Illinois and could not be happier with the snack fundraiser. It was extremely successful and we more than exceeded our financial goal! Our representative, Chris, provided us with any materials we needed to disburse to our families. She was efficient, helpful and a big source of encouragement throughout the whole process. We are looking forward to continuing this rewarding tradition in the years to come.
Customer service has been amazing! Very helpful and the program is so simple.
We had a great experience with Fundraisingzone.com! The staff was friendly and very helpful. The products were nearly all good. The parents loved the flower and food items that they ordered. Highly recommend.
We had the pleasure of working with Fundraising Zone over the past year and they have a great program. You should definitively uses them!
I am the President of the booster our local elementary school bands. We were looking for a fundraiser to do before Christmas, for Christmas gifts, and so a friend of mine gave me this company's fundraising packet to look through. We chose the Winter Wonderland 2019 packet and it was great for our kids. Customer service was wonderful, to say the least! Any time I had a question, they were quick to answer and everything was communicated greatly. Everything was so much easier than I thought a fundraiser would be, and by making a personal website for those to order online was spectacular! We look forward to doing a Spring fundraiser with this company. I highly suggest the Fundraising Zone as your go to fundraiser!!! Awesome company. We appreciate your business.
We used them for the 1st time to do a fundraiser at our school and they were very responsive to any and all questions we had and got our shipment to us in less than 3 weeks from when I mailed the order forms and that was going to CA from PA!! Thanks Chris, Joe and Michelle!!
Fundraising Zone ROCKS!!!! Their popcorn is delicious and you get your money's worth unlike some other companies. All of the representatives are always so pleasant. But I had the best one, Chris!!! She has been a life saver during our process. Shipping is FAST, which is important to customers. They fulfilled some discrepancies without any hassle. I would definitely recommend this company to everyone who is looking to do a great, profitable fundraiser. You can't go wrong with Fundraising Zone!! I look forward to doing business with them again soon.
I would recommend your company to all of the schools in our county. Chris was a big help for the last 3 yrs I have been doing this. She was always just a phone call away and ready to help us.
Our elementary PTA has used them for several years and they work with us to make the process very easy!
