The Good Neighbor Club of Mahtomedi and Willernie

The Good Neighbor Club of Mahtomedi and Willernie The Good Neighbor Club was started in 1947 by Willernie resident, Julie Fiske, to assist people living in the District 832 area on a temporary basis.

The Good Neighbor Club was started in 1947 by Willernie resident, Julie Fiske, to assist people living in the District 832 area with temporary assistance for:

§ Temporary unemployment and in need of rent or house payment help.

§ A fire in the home with immediate help for lodging, clothing, and emergency funds.

§ A death in the family which has temporarily tied up cash funds.

§ An illness in the family which has temporarily strained family finances.

§ An illness in the family where a wheelchair, walker, or hospital bed needs to be rented.To be eligible for assistance from The Good Neighbor Club, the recipient must reside in the Mahtomedi School District #832. This includes Mahtomedi, Willernie, Pine Springs, Dellwood, part of Grant, a small portion of White Bear Township, Hugo and Lake Elmo. If you know of someone who does need help, or if you need temporary assistance, please call one of the following Club members:

Help will only be a phone call away. The Good Neighbor Club also has two Holiday programs in December:

Cheer Boxes are assembled and filled with treats such as apples, cookies, oranges and candy. The boxes are delivered to those who might be alone or have suffered a loss through a death or some other tragedy. The goal is to bring a little cheer to people during what can be a difficult time of the year. Our Holiday Giving program helps Parents who need assistance to provide toys, clothes, books, games, and other gifts for their children. Local organizations including District 832 schools and private citizens who “adopt” a family help us in providing for families. If you are interested in adopting a family for our Holiday Giving program please email mah.wil.gnc@gmail.com. It was also in 1947, prior to data privacy laws, that the Club decided to elect a three-member Board which includes the President, Vice President and Treasurer to make the determination on eligibility of recipients. Each person, or family, that requests assistance is assigned a case number. The names of the recipients are never revealed to the Club members at large and the treasurer’s reports are given in terms of case numbers rather than names. Because of current data privacy laws, schools, churches and governments cannot reveal any names of people needing help. The only way The Good Neighbor Club can find out if someone needs assistance is if that person calls one of the Club members.

Hello to the Mahtomedi Community!
We just wanted to take a minute and make you aware that the GNC has transitioned the Annual Holiday Giving program over to the Mahtomedi School District.
The Good Neighbor Club of Mahtomedi and Willernie has really enjoyed coordinating this program for the last 20+ years and are now going to refocus our club in a new direction while still helping out the members of our community.
If you have a child enrolled in a Mahtomedi school then they and their non school age siblings (babies and toddlers) can register to receive holiday gifts, etc.
Deadline to register for Holiday help is November 30th. Here is the link to register: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdrBEgR_E2Hj2AYBAn0CzKqs0ic-prkj50IXMSMpYEkx5_E6A/viewform
