Goodfellows

Since 1910, the Windsor Goodfellows have been a part of the fabric of the Windsor-Essex community, leading numerous charitable initiatives.

Best known for our annual holiday newspaper sales campaign, our organization has grown to become a major source of community support and giving throughout the year. From providing Christmas meals and gifts to our weekly food bank, school breakfast programs to supplying children with shoes and boots, we help thousands of families in need every year. It all goes back to our original mission over a century ago: to help those that cannot help themselves.

“This, in The Goodfellows Code, is writ: The best of life and the worth of it Is not how much I can get for me, But what have I done to be neighbourly.” - From The Goodfellows Code, by Goodfellow Angus Munro, 1959
