Surf's Up Candle In Belmar Donating To Help Businesses Amid COVID

BELMAR – Surf's Up Candle is doing its part to help businesses suffering amid COVID-19.

The business is donating 40 percent of special, custom candles to the Barstool Fund.

The fund, pioneered by David Portnoy, owner of Barstool Sports, is an initiative to assist small businesses that have been affected by the pandemic.

In order to help these businesses as much as possible, discount codes cannot be used on these products.

Michelle Fontanez used a crockpot to melt wax in her kitchen when she started her Belmar business seven years ago.

Now, through sheer hard work and creative thinking, Fontanez has turned Surf's Up Candle into a worldwide business that has accounts such as Universal, QVC, Bed Bath and Beyond.
