Wyandotte Goodfellows to Distribute Gift Cards to Needy Families

Eligible residents can receive holiday help at the Copeland Center on Monday and Tuesday.

Volunteers with the Wyandotte Goodfellows will continue their work next week to ensure no child goes without a Christmas.

The Goodfellows spend an average of $20,000 per year helping Wyandotte families. 

While some organizations require people to signup to receive assistance, the Goodfellows does not. Those in need simply show up to receive gifts from Toys 'R' Us and gift cards redeemable at Meijer.
