About Lucky Penny Candles
Meet Our Founder
Dom LeRoux was born and raised in Montreal, Canada. Since he was a young child, Dom has been passionate about personalized gifts. Some of his favorite memories are of trips to visit family in the Niagara Falls area, where he always made sure to visit a gift shop and buy a personalized memento with the allowance he’d saved.
Candles were part of Dom’s childhood, both at home and at church. They also marked important milestones in his family’s life when they were used gestures of support, sending positive vibes when loved ones were going through struggles or needed encouragement.
Dom’s family emphasized kindness, gratitude, and positive thinking. He was a Cub Scout, where he learned even more ways to be kind and considerate of others. Through scouting, Dom volunteers on many occasions including at the Fondation Papillon, also known as the Quebec Society for Disabled Children, an organization dedicated to defending the rights of children with disabilities and building a more inclusive society.
Dom attended college in the US, graduating from Bellevue University and continuing his e-commerce & business studies at Northcentral University. After completing his studies, he worked with leading companies in the fields of consumer packaged goods and on-demand printing.
No matter where his career took him, Dom was always guided by a drive to make the world better. Combining his experience and education in e-commerce with his love of candles and personalized gifts, he created Lucky Penny Candles on the principles of kindness and gratitude for being able to deliver the finest American-made personalized candles.
