With the move to their smaller space completed, and the store reopened, Not A Number owners Kara Ceriello and Jon DeLeeuw enlisted members of their Kids Club to raise funds for stranded families in Japan through ShelterboxUSA.org. Many Wallingford businesses have donated all sorts of goodies for the cause, and Not A Number will hold a series of daily raffle drawings for prizes beginning this Friday, April 1 at 7pm—-both in-store and online through their website: NotANumberGifts.com.
For the past five years, the Not A Number Kids Club has been doing all kinds of good deeds in Wallingford–from raising money for FamilyWorks to keeping the neighborhood clean. With the money they raise from the raffle, ShelterBox will send a big crate of supplies to Japan that includes a tent, cooking and water purification supplies, and a stove.
Raffle tickets are a buck a piece, and you can purchase them now through April 10 at Not A Number (1907.5 N 45th), Fainting Goat Gelato (1903 N 45th), Blue Star Cafe (4512 Stone Way N), or online through NotANumberGifts.com for your chance to win. You don’t need to be present at the store to win, and just look at all the super cool prizes they’ve procured from our neighborhood businesses:
