A Cheerful Giver

A Cheerful Giver is a family-owned maker of scented candles, hand-poured in Elmer, New Jersey, since 1991 and led by owners Tony and Susan Gross. For more than 20 years it has worked with CODI (Career Opportunity Development, Inc.), whose adult workers with special needs place the wick in every candle. Jar sizes run from 6 oz to 34 oz, and the range also includes fragrance melts, candle holders, room air infusers, car air fresheners and home decor. The candles are sold online, through retail stores across the United States and through a wholesale programme that is also listed on Faire.
