Every candle has a story — and this one changes lives. ✨🕯️
Kenshi Candles began with a 14-year-old boy, Liam Foldi, who wanted to help fight hunger in Australia. What started as hand-pouring candles in his bedroom soon grew into something far bigger, touching thousands of lives.
Today, Kenshi Candles are lovingly made by members of the Chin refugee community from Myanmar — incredible individuals who rebuilt their lives in Melbourne after escaping civil war. Through Kenshi, they’ve found meaningful employment, stability, and hope.
And every candle you purchase does even more:
💛 Funds meals for Australians in need
💛 Supports refugee families
💛 Helps continue Liam’s mission to end hunger
This is what it looks like when a simple product becomes a force for good.
Beautiful. Ethical. Life-changing.
