One of the charities we donate to is The Ronald McDonald House. The following is one reason why we donate.

Together From Day One

Gilbert Mendoza, Jr. had no idea how much love would come into his life when he became a dad. Gilbert and his daughter, Jaylene, live in Brawley, two hours east of San Diego in Imperial County. Jaylene is a sweetheart who loves to talk to everyone. He became worried when Jaylene said her back hurt, and she had bruises for no reason.
Doctors sent them to San Diego, where she was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. She was admitted for treatment just nine days after her fifth birthday. Jaylene had to stay at the hospital. “I was scared of losing her,” Gilbert recalls. “She’s my world.”
Gilbert had to leave work to take care of Jaylene. He couldn’t have afforded a hotel or meals, or managed the two-hour drive home. Gilbert remembers how stressful the experience was:

I didn’t know what I was going to do. When I found out they had room for me at the Ronald McDonald House, I cried. I felt a huge load lifted off my shoulders.

Jaylene needed multiple rounds of chemotherapy. She was able to do some of it at the Ronald McDonald House, with a nurse coming to their room. Gilbert could monitor her temperature, and they could get to the hospital right away if her condition changed.
When Jaylene was up for it, they played outside. She liked to be pulled in a wagon at the Ronald McDonald House, and she greeted people like a princess.
Dad and daughter were together from day one, thanks to San Diego’s Ronald McDonald House.

10 new candles just poured and starting the curing process. The gray candles in back will be called Ghost Story which has a mysterious, slightly smoky scent with amber and spice and the light brown candles will be called Hot Toddy, an inviting and warm buttery rum scent. These guys will be ready for their forever home on Monday 9/29. Please follow and share Curio Candles. It really means a lot. Thank you!

This wax melter has been a huge help. I went from making 4-8 candles a day up to 40 candles a day! This is still just the beginning. My goal is to get a much larger wax melter that’s capable of melting 100 LBs of wax at a time. It would allow me to make hundreds of candles a day, but for now I’m happy with the melter I have.

This was how Curio Candles started. It took so long to make candles with that little hot plate and pitcher! I could only make 4-8 candle a day.
