Please join us for an intimate and informative gathering on Monday, June 21st at the home of Patsy and Ted Barber in Northampton, MA.

We would like to offer you the opportunity to meet the Prosperity Candle team, learn about a bold and visionary company that empowers women entrepreneurs in areas of conflict, and engage in the Prosperity Circle as a lender, donor or ambassador.

Having successfully completed our 1 year pilot in Iraq and proven our model, Prosperity Candle is ready to scale up. With your participation, we are poised to expand our work to significantly impact the lives of many more women in places like Afghanistan, Haiti and Rwanda.

Prosperity Candle's mission is to provide thousands of women with the opportunity, tools and resources to start successful enterprises. We aspire to enable women to not only survive, but truly thrive.

When a woman thrives, an entire community thrives.

We hope you can join us on Monday, June 21st at 7:00 p.m. in Northampton. Please see below for directions.

Thank you for your interest -- we hope to see you there!
