Hart Main – ManCans

At age 13 Hart had turned a playful jab at his sister for having girly candles into a successful enterprise. He had made the ManCan, a masculine candle that comes in incredible smells such as campfire and bacon. Each candle comes in a container that is made to look like a soup can, and in fitting the theme he donates a portion of all his earnings towards helping out soup kitchens. His products are now sold in every state in the USA.

He had turned an idle joke into a thriving business that gives him an income in the six figures. His story shows us how we should never discard an idea simply because it came from something as small as a joke made with family, as even those can change our lives and impact the lives of others.
