About the Fundraiser

FMI is the only entity in the Montgomery area providing emergency shelter, meals, other basic needs (hygiene items to government-issued identification), connections to resources (employment to medical care), and case management (guidance to navigate personal obstacles and creating a personal plan toward self-sufficiency) to hungry and homeless people while they work toward independent living in a home that is appropriate for their personal needs. Candle sales will benefit Friendship Mission to support the area’s only homeless shelter program and its public soup kitchen.

Meet the Maker

“We create our candles to be a light to others, and w

e believe in sharing our flame to make our community brighter.”

-Melissa Warnke

Melissa Warnke made her first candle in 2012, which she poured inside a vintage tea cup. Over the years, her unique candles grew in popularity. With an eye for style and design, Melissa continued honing her craft, and her hobby became a full-fledged business when she debuted her line of hand-gilded candles in 2019. The stunning and distinctive look turned her candles into instant bestsellers, but the high-quality ingredients and long-burning, long-lasting fragrances of the candles kept customers coming back again and again.

Melissa has become known for her custom candles and personalized designs. She regularly partners with local organizations and businesses to create one-of-a-kind candle-pouring experiences and community-driven fundraisers. You can shop her entire collection at melissawarnke.com.

Burn Instructions: On the first burn, allow the pool of wax to extend to the outside rim of the jar to set its memory. Each time you burn the candle again, it will continue to burn to the rim. Keep wicks trimmed to 1/4" and directed away from the sides of the container. Burn candles on a protective, heat-resistant surface, away from drafts.

WARNING: Candles should not be burned for more than 3 hours at a time. Burning a candle for long periods of time when the wax is very low could cause the glass container to explode. Burn within sight. Keep away from flammable objects. Keep away from children and pets.
