Messenger-Inquirer Generous contributors give to the Goodfellows Club because they know that every penny of the money will go toward helping children in need.
None is cut for administrative costs, and all money stay in Owensboro.
If it's going to the children, I think that makes it that much better. Goodfellows has been providing clothing, coats and shoes to needy children in Owensboro since 1916. Goodfellows works with the local school systems to identify those in need and then provides money for teachers and counselors to take the children shopping. But the need is growing. And the Jan. 3 tornado that ripped through Owensboro damaging nearly 1,500 homes intensified that need.
