We were talking over dinner about the **Things 4 Good Candle Fundraiser** and thinking we should make note when we **sell the 1,000th candle**. It turns out we already did — this year!

We’ve already sold 1,125 candles!

So who got the 1,000th candle? We had 804 sold before this year’s event.

The 196th candle of the 2025 sale, **the 1,000th candle**, was in the 40th transaction of the event!
