Goodfellows Christmas Party is an annual event for Owensboro/Daviess County children ages 1-12 features inflatables, appearances by your favorite characters, and lots of surprises!  Each child will receive a gift.  The Goodfellows Club has been reaching out to Daviess County’s less fortunate children since 1916 providing clothes, shoes, coats, dental care, and Christmas joy. 

In 1916 a young newspaper editor named Lawrence Hager was assigned a story on “The Charity Girls,” an organization that had sponsored annual Christmas parties for needy children in Owensboro since 1911. Rather than reporting that the organization was disbanding and the parties would end.  Hager (then editor of the Owensboro Inquirer and later editor of the combined Messenger-Inquirer) began the first Christmas party because “no child should be forgotten at Christmas.” 100% of all donations go directly to meet local schoolchildren’s needs.
