Kid's crash set mom back

A daughter's major car accident meant this single mom missed work to care for her during the hospital stay and her recovery. Mom fell behind on a utility payment because part of the time she missed from work was unpaid. Goodfellows was there to pay the $416 utility bill, and she was able to get back on schedule for regular payments.

Your contribution to Goodfellows supports this year-round emergency assistance program. The World-Herald's charity also funds eye care for the homeless, clothing for needy schoolchildren and food certificates during the holidays.
