Meet one of our everyday angels, Jen Allen. She's a mom, wife, teacher and a rep for Gold Canyon Candle company and she has a very BIG heart. Through the Prayer Child Foundation with Gold Canyon she is able to give big back to children in the community that truly need a village to help. The company gives 100% of the purchase price of their "Candles for Kids" to children in need of medical expenses and treatments that their parents cannot afford. This past year, she was able to help over 12 children, all across the US (and locally in Leesburg), get much needed assistance. She committed to selling two "Candles for Kids" at each party held. Because of her goal and accomplishments, Jen has been recognized by her company as a leader in helping the community. Having already given thousands away she was awarded for her efforts with more- a $2500 check to give to those she felt would benefit most. She divided the money into four recipients including Hope for Tiny Hearts, a family with a daughter going through anorexia, and two families with children that have Autism and Barth Syndrome. She loves the ability to help people in need simply by doing her job. If you know anyone who has a child 18 or under with a medical need or illness that their family cannot afford to pay for, please contact Jen to get an application to request assistance from the foundation. Jen truly is an angel and has the desire and ability to keep helping families in need. Candles are a must for most people, good karma says you should make Jen your candle source. Thanks for all that you do Jen! Her Blog- http://wixnstix.wordpress.com/
