A Fundraiser People Feel Good About Supporting
Instead of selling products people may never use, offer something that can become part of their homes, celebrations, gifts, and everyday routines.
Harvest Sunset fundraising combines quality products with a simple, flexible program designed around your organization. Our candles are made in America on our Illinois farm, and our fundraising program can be customized for schools, teams, churches, nonprofits, individuals, and other groups.
When your supporters purchase from your fundraiser, they’re helping your organization move closer to its goal while also supporting a family-owned American business.

Fundraising Rooted in Family
Harvest Sunset Candles is located on a Midwest family farm in Illinois, where our connection to agriculture is part of who we are. Our soy candles help connect the products we make with the crop that inspired the business in the first place.
That means your fundraiser is about more than simply selling candles. It’s an opportunity to support your organization with a useful, giftable product while also supporting an American family business and the agricultural community behind it.
Custom Fundraising Programs
No two organizations are exactly alike, so your fundraiser shouldn’t have to be either.

We can help you choose the fundraising format that best fits your group, including:
- Traditional catalog fundraising

Candles Make Fundraising Easy to Share
Candles work especially well for fundraising because they appeal to a broad range of customers. They can be purchased for the home, given as gifts, used seasonally, or simply enjoyed as an everyday fragrance.
