About Dalit Candles

Often referred to as untouchables, members of the Dalit people occupy the lowest position in the Hindu caste system. The 250 million strong Dalit community find their opportunities in life extremely limited due to the discrimination they face. These candles are hand-crafted by Dalits in Mumbai and are sold to raise support for education and orphanage projects.
