Why we Recommend a Winter Wonderland Gift Brochure Fundraiser with Yankee Candles
For many years, Yankee Candle Fundraising helped thousands of organizations throughout the U.S. raise money. Schools, sports teams, clubs, and other groups successfully raised money for their programs with a wide variety of candle styles, candle scents, and other fragrance items. Unfortunately, in 2020, the Yankee Candle Company ended its fundraising program, leaving many organizations very disappointed and searching for alternatives.
Yankee Candle Fundraising was well known for its high-quality products and long-lasting scents. With the closure of the fundraising program offered by the Yankee Candle Company, the search for a new school candle fundraiser began. While we highly recommend our GLOW Candles Fundraiser for groups searching for candles, wax melts, room sprays, and essential oils, our Winter Wonderland brochure is a great option. If you are searching for a Christmas fundraiser that includes Yankee Candles, gift wraps, holiday decor, chocolates, snacks, and more, our Winter Wonderland could be precisely what you are looking for! You can even combine Winter Wonderland with Gourmet Goodness for even more treats!
Because Yankee Candles is such a well-known and trusted brand, a Winter Wonderland fundraiser is an excellent candle fundraising choice for this year's Christmas fundraiser. The Yankee Candle school fundraiser program was loved and trusted by fundraising organizations and supporters for many years, and their candles were known as "America's Best Loved Candles." For school candle fundraisers, fall sports fundraisers, etc., including Yankee Candles in your Winter Wonderland fundraising brochure and/or online fundraising store will surely boost your sales!
For an early fall or Christmas fundraiser, a fundraiser with Yankee Candles is a perfect choice for enjoyment in your home or office and for holiday gift-giving, birthday gifts, housewarmings, and more. Your next fundraiser with Winter Wonderland could become an annual Yankee Candle tradition for your school, sports team, cheer team, or dance team's fundraiser.
We are dedicated to providing our fundraising organizations with simple, fun, and profitable fundraisers. We are proud to offer Yankee Candles and high-quality items to please the most discerning shoppers. Customer satisfaction is our goal; attention to detail is second to none. You can count on a fundraiser that will be simple, fun, and profitable. Contact Best Fundraising Ideas by calling 860-384-3691 or start registration by clicking on Let's Get Started.
We look forward to helping you reach your fundraising goal!
We Recommend Pairing Winter Wonderland with our Gourmet Goodness Fundraising Brochure
We highly recommend offering Gourmet Goodness along with
our Winter Wonderland fundraising brochures! Both brochures are provided by the same distributor, items from both brochures use the same order form, your orders would ship together, and sales are combined with Winter Wonderland as one order. Also, the online fundraising store includes all the items from both brochures.

We will also email reports for your sales, including a breakdown of what each participant sold, the total number of items sold, and the retail sales.
After reviewing the invoice, you can pay by mailing us a school/business check or money order along with a copy of your invoice. We request that payment be made as quickly as possible and must be received before your packed order can be shipped.
Once shipped, we will email you a link to track your shipment.

What Happened to Yankee Candle Fundraising?
Yankee Candle Fundraising, for years, helped thousands of organizations throughout the U.S. with candle fundraisers. In June 2020, Yankee Candle discontinued its fundraising program. Yankee Candle Fundraising, perhaps the country's largest and most well-known fundraising program, decided to close down its program in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Official Statement on the Yankee Candle Fundraising Website (now closed) Read:
“In light of the impact that COVID-19 is having on our Fundraising business, we have made the difficult decision to close down the Yankee Candle® Fundraising program. We know that many of you rely on us to help you raise funds, and we are sorry that we will no longer be able to support your fundraising efforts…”
Any new fundraiser inquiries are being turned away indefinitely.
The closure of Yankee Candle Fundraising shocked schools, youth groups, sports teams, and so many other organizations throughout the country, making it a tradition to hold a yearly Yankee Candle fundraiser to raise money to support their programs. As organizations recover from the pandemic, they have been in a difficult position as they decide how they will proceed with fundraising and will be considering an alternative candle fundraiser.
Good News! Yankee Candles are now available again, exclusively in our Winter Wonderland fundraising brochure and online fundraising store!

Learn more about the Yankee Candle Fundraising History - A True American Success Story
Christmas 1969 - A True American Success Story - Sixteen-year-old Mike Kittredge, too broke to buy his mother a present, melted some crayons to make her a candle. A neighbor saw it and convinced Mike to sell the candle to her. With that small stake, he bought enough wax to make two candles—one for his mom, and another to sell. That was the birth of Yankee Candle.
1977 - Yankee Candle is THE big story at the Boston Gift Show. Retailers nationwide take notice and place big orders for their stores.
2004 - Yankee Candle acquired GBI Marketing and began the expansion of the fundraising business. Yankee Candle went on to become the number one most-recognized name in the candle business and the country’s best-selling candle brand by sharing their customers' "passion for fragrance" in every product they brought to market.
2010 - Yankee Candle Fundraising helps generate over $15 million for more than 12,000 local and national groups.
2016 - Yankee Candle is acquired by Newell Brands.
2020 - In June of 2020, Newell had to make a difficult decision for their fundraising program. The official Newell Brands news statement reported the division’s fundraising program was being discontinued. Before their website closed down, it contained this heartfelt message to all of their faithful supporters. “To our fundraising community: In light of the impact that COVID-19 is having on our fundraising business we have made the difficult decision to close down the Yankee candle fundraising program. We know that many of you rely on us to help you raise funds and we’re sorry that we will no longer be able to support your fundraising efforts. Being a part of your community has been a privilege..."
2023- The YankeeCandleFundraising.com website remains shut down. But good news, the Yankee Candle Company is supplying our Winter Wonderland fundraising distributor select Yankee Candles for their Winter Wonderland fundraising brochures and online fundraising store.
