Search & Rescue Donation

Being native to the Pacific Northwest, we know that going out and getting lost in nature is an absolute necessity. It's what makes our grey skies so worth it.

 

But what about those times where you find yourself on Mt. Baker, looking around aimlessly and all the trails start to look alike. Your heart drops, your pulse races, cold sweats begin. You're lost.

 

Many of us don't realize that it is unlikely a salaried city worker will come to save the day. They may be the ones you call, but they relay the message to their nearest Search & Rescue team for the work to begin.

 

These unsung heroes go about their duty on a volunteer bases. They are a rough and tough crowd with smiles ear to ear. They are jovial  experts of the trail. They are the ones scaling the mountain in the middle of a snow storm while everyone else is inside the lodge.  It's pretty incredible they perform 600-700 of these missions a year in the state of Washington. Unfortunately these very same teams  are underfunded and must use their own personal equipment to see them through. Our mission is to change that and  help them out as much as we can. 

 

Your purchase helps fund Washington State volunteer Search & Rescue teams.  $1-$5 from every candle purchase is donated to our local teams.  Check out our candle sizes for more information.
