The event is being organized by Planned2Give, a local organization that helps plan philanthropic events around the Dayton community.
“We’re so excited just to be able to revamp the Sweet Treats Festival,” organizers Lisa Grigsby and Jeff Jackson of Planned2Give shared in a news release. “By changing it to a touring event, we are able to still allow you to support and visit some of the Miami Valley’s best small businesses, while indulging in some truly scrumptious treats. Best of all, while doing this you are supporting Shoes 4 The Shoeless, a local non-profit that, since 2010, has been providing new, correctly-fitting gym shoes and socks to Dayton area children in desperate need.”
For $25, guests will receive 15 coupons that can be exchanged for a sweet treat at any of these participating establishments during normal business hours:
- Ashley’s Pastry Shop
- Cake, Hope & Love
- Ghostlight Coffee
- Graeter’s Ice Cream - Oakwood

- Nothing Bundt Cakes
- Purely Sweet Bakery - Gluten-free, paleo and keto treats
