The aroma coming from the Ukraine candle from Door County Candle Company is not just the scent of serenity but also of charity.

Over 10,000 candles have already been ordered, with supply chain issues the only thing slowing down the team. That includes the scent of vanilla, which they ran out of due to an increase in demand. The effort is special for Door County Candle Company owner Christiana Gorchynsky– Trapani. The second-generation Ukrainian-American has been in constant contact with her family living in the western part of Ukraine. She is thrilled with the response she has already received to support the Ukrainian non-profit Razom and proud to help those suffering in Ukraine.

Gorchynsky – Trapani is also thankful to the community for their help, whether buying the candles or volunteering to help make them. You can hear the rest of her interview with NEW Radio’s Lee at this link.
