Help Me Celebrate 15 Years of Girl About Dayton!

I can’t believe it’s been 15 years already, but time flies when you’re having fun!

I was looking for a way to commemorate the occasion and decided it could be a great opportunity to give back to this amazing community. I pulled together some of my favorite things and created a shop.

Girl About Dayton’s 15th Anniversary Shop

I created a little shop to sell some of my handmade items (I used to have a craft business!) as well as some branded merch-type things and some of my art prints from Aniya!

The proceeds of each purchase go to local charity Miami Valley Meals. I had a chance to tour this fantastic place and learn more about their mission over one of their delicious meals last year and the experience was amazing. With the cost of everything going up these days, organizations like Miami Valley Meals are helping people who are food insecure all over the region have chef-inspired meals made with care.

Check out the shop!

*Just a note:* The last ecommerce store I set up was probably 10+ years ago and boyyyy have things exploded in complexity. Please let me know if you run into any issues or have any questions!
