Sunkissed Pantry Store Front Expansion
Raising money to start my dream of helping the planet and bringing the community diverse products that benefit people and the earth.
Project Description
Hi there! My name is Kiersten Ozhelevskiy and I am the founder of Sunkissed Pantry.
I was born and raised in sunny California, spending summers on the beach and winters in the mountains. I have been surrounded by nature my whole life, and the environment has become something I am deeply passionate about. I am a mother to one beautiful daughter and I often think about the world she will grow up in. At first I was so hopeful for her bright future, but given the chaos of these last two years I have grown concerned for what kind of world she will grow up in.
My personal journey to living a healthier and plastic free life has impacted the way I raise my child and what I do in my lifetime. I care about the impact I have on this world and I think it is so important that we all become a little more conscious about what we leave behind.
I have started this business to show people how easy and fun it can be to live a more sustainable lifestyle. I want to educate as many people as I can on the importance of eco friendly living and what you can do to make a difference, while gaining personal health benefits. Now I would like to expand my product offerings, reach more people, and open a store front!
Who we are
Sunkissed Pantry is a whole health store that is a one stop shop for all zero waste needs.
What's the problem?
We have found that it is extremely difficult to do your everyday shopping without everything having harmful toxins and coming wrapped in plastic. Items from big brands are constantly getting recalled for cancer causing ingredients, and plastic keeps filling up our trashes, landfills, and oceans. We have created a monster of a system in which we value convenience over our own health and sustainability.
What we do differently!
All our products are better for the earth and benefit your personal health, from bath, beauty, home, food, cleaning, etc.. The products we carry are non-toxic, non-GMO, cruelty free, compostable, reusable/refillable, or package free. We try to source our products as locally as possible and 90% of our products are proudly from women owned businesses. In addition, we want to give back as much as possible. We will be joining 1% for the planet and donating 1% of our annual sales to environmental non profits that work hard to preserve nature, clean up pollution and protect natural habitats.
What will the money go towards?
We are raising money to fund the opening costs of getting a brick-and-mortar going. This will go towards our starting capital. Help us spread the word about the importance of creating a more sustainable future!
Thank you!
I appreciate your support for my crowdfunding campaign to help grow Sunkissed Pantry and bring more social good to the world. Individually we have small voices, but together we can amplify the sound to make a big change. Thank you so much for contributing to my campaign, it means so much to me and I cannot wait to share my passion project with you!
