Have you heard of the 3/50 Project yet? If you haven't, let me get you in on a little secret. You know those locally owned shops, the Mom's and Pop's, that you pass by everyday. The kind who has been in the community a while and define your city with their unique offerings, helpful and friendly staff and you are most likely to talk to the owner before you leave the store. Would you miss these quaint shops if they had to close and were no longer available?
Well, the 3/50 Project is a grassroots awareness movement to encourage you to pick three locally-owned places you'd miss if they disappeared. Spend $50 per month between those three places. Simple as can be and we can all reap the rewards with a wealthier and healthier local economy.
Here are some statistics to support the project:
So, there is our little secret... Ok, maybe it's not so secret... but, we would like to invite you to participate in the project. And stop in to see us at SouthWind Gallery to say hello, because we would love to see you!
