Each year, the Best of Dayton celebrates all that the Miami Valley has to offer. From doughnuts to bike shops, we love celebrating the businesses of this community. Dayton Magazine readers voted for their favorites in 142 categories, and we are excited to bring you this year’s winners. It was sponsored by Kitchens by Design, Delta Dental and Logan AC & Heat Services. Community partners were the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce and WDTN. We asked the winners why they thought they won their category, and we included a selection of their responses in the following pages.

100 Years of Helping You...
Help Students Follow Their Dreams.
Longtime teacher Pearl A. Dale faced barriers as an African American growing up in the early 1900s. These experiences inspired her to establish a scholarship fund in 1990 through the African-American Community Fund of The Dayton Foundation.“I hope my contribution to the Foundation on behalf of black girls and boys will help in a small way to alleviate these problems,” Pearl wrote at the time. More than 40 students have attended college to date thanks to Pearl’s fund. They join thousands of other students helped by 200+ Dayton Foundation scholarship funds since 1921. .
