Prayer Child Helps Local Families

One of the greatest parts of my job is helping families in need. The Prayer Child program was started in 2000 to help children with physical disabilities and medical needs. The sales of the "Candles for Kids" provide the money that is needed for these children.

In August of 2008 I went to a fellow teacher in my school building who is responsible for all of the severe handicapped children. I asked her to fill out applications for her students so that we could possibly get some money for those kids. Many of them live at poverty level and have needs beyond what their parents can meet financially.

In November, just a week before Thanksgiving, Jill came to me with three envelopes in her hand. All of the envelopes contained a check for $1000 a piece, made out to three students in our school. I was ecstatic! I cried for days. We called the families and had them come in to the school, telling them that they had paper work that needed to be signed (how sneaky). When they got there, they were pleasantly surprised to see that they were being given $1000.

As the parents were getting ready to leave, they said that they knew what they were going to do with the money already. One planned on putting it in a savings account for her daughter for later use, the other was going to purchase a theraputic bike for her daughter and the last mother said that she now had enough money to get her daughter the bed that she had been saving for stating "This is going to be a great Christmas for our daughter"

I was so excited! My candles had made the difference in the lives of THREE children in my own school, my own community, and that felt WONDERFUL!

So when you are making your purchase with Gold Canyon, consider purchasing a "Candles for Kids" candle. It will touch the lives of children all over the US, and knowing that 100% of that money goes to them makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I know that I am "Making a difference" in so many childrens lives everytime that I purchase, or one of my customers purchase a "CAndles for Kids" candle, and for that I am grateful!

Thank you Gold Canyon for such a wonderful product and a wonderful program that has touched children in my community!
