The Hamtramck Goodfellows, believe that no family should go without a Holiday meal. While organizations do public works by supplying toys and holiday trimmings, we focus on providing assistance for each needy family's Holiday meal. In 2002, we raised a total of $11,500 through donations. This helped us to feed 480 families and individuals in the form of food certificates. Our annual newspaper sale will be held on Friday, December 5, 2003. This year's meeting place for paper sales will be at Post 10 11824 Jos. Campau.
Applications for Hamtramck Goodfellows assistance are available at the Hamtramck City Clerk Office, as well as through the Hamtramck Public Schools (have your child ask his or her teacher for an application). If you wish to make a monetary donation you can mail a check to:
If you have any further questions, please contact the Hamtramck Mayor's Office. |
For over 60 years, the Hamtramck Goodfellows have made good on their
promise to help provide needy families with a Holiday meal. This year,
help is desperately needed for us to continue our proud tradition.
| Those
in need of help putting food on the table this Holiday Season will receive
that help.
These certificates will be provided by the Hamtramck Goodfellows. The only thing you need is proof of residency in the City of Hamtramck. There will also be applications at all the public schools in the city for the students to pick up for their immediate families. Also there will only be one gift certificate per household. We the Hamtramck Goodfellows, and the members of the Hamtramck Fire Department hope this small gift will bring a little more joy this Holiday Season. We'd like to thank Main Street Newspaper, The Citizen Newspaper, Post 10, Hamtramck High School Community Center, Hamtramck Fire Department, Hamtramck Police Department, Hamtramck Police Reserves, St. Florian Ushers, St. Ladislaus Ushers and all of our generous donators and volunteers who have made this possible.
