WBKR Yard Party on Friday to Benefit Goodfellows Club of Owensboro
It's another WBKR Yard Party! This party involves the Goodfellows Club of Owensboro. They do so many amazing things for so many people in need, so let's support their mission. We all have to eat, and today is the last day for pre-orders.
100% of your contribution goes to support the most disadvantaged students in Daviess County.
I know the Goodfellows Club very well. They do amazing work with area schools to provide care for children in need. They also support families during Christmas with their annual party. We work hand in hand to ensure that every child in the tri-state gets a visit from Santa. They're an amazing non-profit organization, and they work tirelessly for our community. The resources and services that they offer area children are a blessing.
GOODFELLOWS CLUB MISSION
The mission of the Goodfellows Club is to provide resources and services to assist in meeting the physical, social, and psychological needs of schoolchildren at risk in Owensboro and Daviess County.
Since school personnel has first-hand knowledge of students’ needs, they have the responsibility of identifying students at risk, requesting Goodfellows assistance, and responding with an appropriate clothing distribution. The shared responsibility between the local school systems and the Goodfellows Club assures that children’s needs are addressed quickly and fairly.
Goodfellows Club meets more than the everyday needs of clothing, coats, shoes, and dental care. When emergencies such as tornadoes, floods, and house fires arise, Goodfellows Club responds. Children left with little after a disaster are assisted immediately with the assistance of local school personnel.
