We at Mithras believe that we can support healthy individuals and a healthy world through the power of candlelight.
In pursuit of this goal, we promise to:
Use only locally-sourced beeswax from family farms whenever possible
Support local beekeepers and their hives
Collaborate on projects related to light, conservation and candle culture
Educate consumers on the aesthetic and health benefits of beeswax candles
Shine a warm and golden light into the darkness by making regular donations in support of social and environmental justice
DONATIONS
We believe that our business is a river of financial energy, flowing through us to where the resources are needed most to enact positive social and environmental change. As you buy our beautiful products we want you to be aware of where that energy is going.
