Not a Number is reaching out to the community near and beyond Wallingford’s borders to help out during tough times. Jon DeLeeuw, co-owner of the store with his wife Kara Ceriello, posted about their situation on his blog this morning:
Business has taken a HUGE downturn in the last 3-4 months forcing us to give part of our store back to the landlord. Due to this downturn in sales, we need one of two things (or a combination of both), more sales and/or another job for Number Six [DeLeeuw]. If you like our progressive politics and our involvement in the Wallingford community, we urge you to do one of two things: come in and shop, or help Number Six find a job. Remember, we have the largest selection of buttons and stickers in the Seattle, as well as a large selection of fun wacky cards, toys, political and green items.
DeLeeuw and Ceriello don’t just run their store, they’re very involved in neighborhood organizations: DeLeeuw is vice president of the Wallingford Community Council and Ceriello is president of the Wallingford Chamber of Commerce, to name just a couple.
