Lighting the Way for Rare Disease Research helping kidz beat this and smile once again.

Our Story and Mission

At Kandel Werkz, we blend creativity with compassion. Born from a desire to support Stevens-Johnson Syndrome research, our colorful candles and tees offer more than just warmth and style; they bring hope.

In 1995, I was a young 19-year-old mother when I found out the hard way what SJS is. At that time there wasn't much knowledge or awareness of this horrific disease. My little boy was diagnosed with SJS, something I'd never heard of before. Unfortunately, after months in the hospital, he eventually lost his battle with this disease, and I helplessly lost my little boy. I don't want anyone to go through what I went through, or feel what I felt back then. I miss my little boy every day.

So, in his memory —

We started this business to promote awareness of this horrific disease and support Stevens-Johnson Syndrome research, along with donating our time to do our part to maybe help someone else not lose their innocent child.

Please help support this desperate cause by purchasing some merchandise in the store. Every dollar helps. Thank you.
