Celebrate Earth Month with Purpose + Aveda’s Light the Way Candle

April is Earth Month — a time to reflect on our connection to the planet, spotlight sustainability, and take meaningful action toward a healthier world. At Grassroots Salon & Spa, we’re celebrating by offering the limited-edition Aveda Rosemary Mint Vegan Soy Wax Candle — scent: Rosemary Mint — and using it as a way to give back in a big way.

This year’s candle isn’t just a beautiful addition to your home — it’s a candle with heart. 100 % of the purchase price goes directly to supporting clean water projects in Ethiopia through Aveda’s partnership with charity: water.

🌿 What Makes This Candle Special

The Light the Way candle is unique in every way:

Limited edition for Earth Month — once they’re gone, they’re gone • Sourced with purpose — the Rosemary Mint scent is uplifting and refreshing, blending certified organic rosemary, peppermint, spearmint and pure flower and plant essences • 100 % of the purchase price supports charity: water projects in Ethiopia — helping people gain long-term access to clean, safe drinking water and improved sanitation

This means when you light this candle, you’re also lighting the way for communities who need safe water access most. (Aveda)


🌍 Aveda + charity: water: Caring for the World We Live In

Aveda has a long-standing commitment to environmental stewardship and social impact, and clean water access has been a core focus of its Earth Month campaigns for years. Since partnering with global nonprofit charity: water in 2018, Aveda has helped expand clean, safe drinking water to communities in need around the world — including places like Ethiopia, India, Nepal and Madagascar. (Aveda)

charity: water is known for its dedication to 100 % funding clean water projects — meaning every dollar raised goes directly to impact, with GPS-verified reporting and long-term community partnerships. (charity: water)


🌎 Why Clean Water Matters

Access to clean water changes everything in a community:

• It improves health by reducing water-borne disease • It empowers children to attend school instead of walking long distances for water • It provides women and families with more time to pursue work and strengthen local economies • It supports sanitation and hygiene, which elevates overall quality of life

By purchasing this candle, you’re not just bringing beautiful scent into your home — you’re part of a movement that helps provide a basic human necessity to families who go without. (charity: water)
