Blessings Candles


A few months ago, my cousin Cami's good friend, Deby Sebastian, gave Cami a late Christmas gift - a candle named Bella. Deby owns a candle company (Blessings Candles) yet knew nothing about Bella until she gave Cami this candle. From this coincidence, another fundraising idea started coming together.

Deby has generously offered a very simple but profitable fundraiser to the ACD Association. Deby's candle company, Blessings Candles, will make a donation to the ACD Restricted Research Fund at NORD for every "Bella" or other candle bought by ACDA members, their family and friends between now and the end of December.

She will donate $9.00 for every 22 oz. candle and $4.00 for every 11 oz. candle bought by ACDA members, their friends and family. There are many scents to choose from in addition to the "Bella" candle.

Information about the Bella Candle

Size: 22 oz./11 oz.

Scent: Bella - citrus floral

Color: Bella - pink

Burn Time: 100 hours or more for the 22 oz.

Several holidays coming up and candles make wonderful gifts.



Its so easy to order online...just go to http://blessingscandles.com/

So, please consider purchasing a few candles for yourself, family or friends. You can order directly on Deby's website any time and pay via Paypal.

IMPORTANT - So that Deby knows that you are part of this fundraiser, please type "ACD Fundraiser" in the Add Special Instructions to the Seller field in the Review Your Payment screen. That will ensure that Deby makes a donation to NORD for that sale.

International families please contact Deby at sales@blessingscandles.com for international shipping information.

If you need to make payment using another method, contact Deby at sales@blessingscandles.com. Be sure to mention that you are an ACDA member.

When you give the candle as a gift, you might consider adding a note similar to the one below to add a personal touch:

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this candle will be donated by Blessings Candles to the National Organization for Rare Diseases (NORD) for research on Alveolar Capillary Dysplasia (ACD). This is being done in memory of Bella, and the other babies that have lost their lives to ACD.


Thank you Deby for offering to do this wonderful fundraiser for ACD research! Such a wonderful blessing.
