MEET THE OWNER AND THE REASON BEHIND CINNAMON CHAI

Hi everyone! Some of you may already know me, but for those who don’t—my name is Miranda Perez. I’m 24 years old, and I’ve been working toward building my own business for the past five years.

My journey started with handmade jewelry through a brand called Heavenly Sonrisas. Since then, I’ve tried out online printable templates, apparel, a photo booth business, candles, and now I’ve come full circle—landing on handmade accessories and expanding into handbags and more in the near future!

Cinnamon Chai is the brand I’ve been dreaming about for years, and I truly believe this is the one. But my goal has never just been about making money. Over time, it’s become clear how large corporations often put profits over people—raising prices, cutting corners, and forgetting about the very customers who got them there.

As someone who grew up with financial challenges but still loves to shop (thanks, Mom!), I’ve seen how unfair it feels to spend hundreds of dollars just for a logo—especially when it doesn’t stand for anything meaningful.

Cinnamon Chai is different. I created this brand to offer high-quality products at fair prices while giving back to causes that matter. I currently donate 30% of all profits to small, trusted nonprofits like United We Stand, Days for Girls, and Family Foothill. My goal is to grow a business that not only makes people feel good with what they buy but also does good in the world.

In the future, I plan to create job opportunities and expand my mission to help even more people. I truly believe that with a good heart and enough support, we can change the world. That may sound like a big dream, but it’s what keeps me going.

Thank you to everyone who has supported Cinnamon Chai in any way—through likes, comments, shares, or purchases. Your support means more to me than you’ll ever know.
