Star Spangled Salute: A Veteran Finds Purpose In Candles

 

 

 

Today’s Star Spangled Salute honors Army Veteran Melissa Burgess.  Melissa grew up in the foster care system and dreamed one day of being one of those normal, successful families she dreamed off.  Melissa served as a medic from 2002 to 2010 including in the infantry in Iraq from 2003 to 2005. When she returned to civilian life and her husband and 4 kids, the two of them started a business together, candle making.  Little did they know when it started their business, Craft + Foster, would be shipping their unique scents all over the world. Melissa says, “Sometimes the things you least expect are the things you are supposed to be doing”.  Congrats on a successful business Melissa and THANK YOU for your service.
