At Wicks of Honor, our mission goes beyond candles.
Every scent we pour carries the weight of a story — and many of those stories don’t end when the uniform comes off. Transitioning out of military service can be isolating, overwhelming, and, for some, dangerously quiet. We created Wicks of Honor to bring comfort, connection, and purpose to the moments that follow.
But candles alone aren’t enough. That’s why 10% of every sale goes directly to Stop Soldier Suicide, a nonprofit working to provide life-saving mental health support to veterans and service members.
Why This Matters So Deeply to Us
We didn’t just choose Stop Soldier Suicide because it sounded good. We chose it because the fight to save veteran lives is personal.We’ve seen friends, coworkers, and brothers-in-arms fight battles no one could see. Some of them lost. Some of them are still fighting.
Every day, 17 veterans die by suicide. That number isn’t just a statistic — it’s a call to action.
Wicks of Honor was founded by a military family going through that very transition. We’ve felt the uncertainty, the identity shift, the silence. That’s why it means everything to us to give back to a cause that gets it — and is doing something about it.
What Stop Soldier Suicide Does
Stop Soldier Suicide provides high-risk veterans and active-duty service members with personalized care, crisis intervention, mental health support, and long-term planning. They don’t just respond — they stay connected and walk with each person until they’re safe and stable.
Your purchase helps make that possible.

Honor That Burns Brighter
We light these candles in honor of those who served — and for those still carrying the weight of service long after it ends.Because remembrance isn’t passive.Because honoring the fallen means protecting the living.
