Beds for Kids x en mer
one of my all time favorites "sleepytime" is back with a mission connected to Beds for Kids. this candle is the perfect bedside addition. the combination of lavender, chamomile, jasmine & eucalyptus will have you dozing off in no time
20% of the proceeds of the "sleepytime" candle will be donated to Beds for Kids through the end of May 2024.
about the organization:
The Beds for Kids program is driven by the core belief that no child should ever have to sleep on the floor. Unfortunately, research estimates that in the Greater Philadelphia area there are 6,000 children each year going to sleep on the floor or on makeshift beds of blankets, cushions, or any other materials that may be available to them. Coupled with issues of insufficient heating or cooling, and the presence of rodents or other infestations this situation is unbearable. Our mission is to help families establish (or reestablish) self-sufficient lives by providing them with the necessities of a functional home environment. Through the Beds for Kids program, we provide children and youth with beds, bedding, and tools that encourage healthy bedtime habits, so they can get the quality and sufficient sleep they need to thrive.
Breastcancer.org x en mer
the “empower” scent was created in a year-long partnership with Breastcancer.org, available in a special matte blush pink jar and clamshell wax melt with a peachy-pink label. the scent is truly season-less, with traces of each season throughout. while it benefits a very special organization with a mission that touches many, it was created to be a subtle reminder to empower ourselves & one another.
20% of the proceeds of the "empower" scent were donated to Breastcancer.org.
