The Windsor Goodfellows have issued a statement, clarifying with the public that it has no affiliation with the fundraiser held by LaSalle Fire.

Windsor Goodfellows said there has been some confusion and wants to clear it up.

This year, the Old Newsboys Paper Sales by the Windsor Goodfellows will take place from Nov. 27 to Nov. 29. The money raised will go to people in need in Windsor, Tecumseh, and LaSalle.

“We are incredibly grateful for the outpouring support from our community over the years,” Steve Harrison said, chair of the Old Boys Newspapers Windsor Goodfellows.

“Our mission is to help those in the community by giving them a hand up rather than a handout during their time of need.”
