About & Our Mission
Our Mission 🌱✨
We aspire to spark civic curiosity, grassroots participation, and meaningful conversations — not just through what we sell, but through what we share.
Civic Roots Merch is one small spark 🔥 of a larger movement, helping to renew and carry forward the momentum already underway.
Alongside our wearable designs, we share civic resources, conversation starters, and opportunities to connect — all created to feel attractive, responsible, and full of life 💡.
Together, this encourages people to take part in democracy, one shirt, one idea, one action at a time.
About Me 🌱
Hi, I’m Vendoni — a “Granny Nanny” in Houston, where I share life with three generations of family. Civic Roots Merch grew out of my lifelong curiosity about how people connect, how communities thrive, and wondering how democracy can feel more alive.
This project is both a new business and a personal calling: a way to mix creativity, civic participation, and everyday conversation into something we can all wear, share, and enjoy together ✨.
