Scentsy Inc. is about halfway to a $500,000 fundraising goal in support of Shriners Hospitals for Children.
In September, the home fragrance company introduced the Love Heals Warmer, a seasonal cause product benefiting Shriners Hospitals. The nonprofit has 22 locations across North America where children can receive expert specialty care, regardless of a family’s ability to pay.
Scentsy is supporting the work of Shriners Hospitals with $8 from the sale of each Love Heals product, in a promotion that will run through February. Three months in, and with the holiday giving season in full swing, Scentsy reports that customers have helped to donate $244,000 to date.
The company has earmarked proceeds from its charity products for a variety of causes, including autism awareness and breast cancer research. The Scentsy Family Foundation, the company’s charitable arm, also provides academic scholarships and direct donations to organizations that support families.
