Elshaddai My Helper exists to relieve poverty and provide assistance to adults experiencing homelessness in Hackney, Walthamstow, and beyond. Through compassionate outreach and practical support, we supply essential items including food, clothing, and personal care products, while treating every individual with dignity and respect. We collaborate with like-minded charitable organizations to maximize our impact and serve our community effectively.
We envision a community where no person experiencing homelessness is without the basic necessities of life—warmth, food, and human compassion. Through consistent outreach, strategic partnerships, and future plan including health checks and housing support, we are working toward a future where everyone has access to the resources and dignity they deserve.
Elshaddai My Helper was established as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation on 5th July 2017, born from a deep commitment to serve adults experiencing homelessness in East London.
What began as a compassionate response to those in need has grown into a structured charity with a dedicated team of trustees and volunteers, conducting regular monthly outreach in Walthamstow under the umbrella of Christian Kitchen, and quarterly joint outreach in Hackney in partnership with local churches and charitable groups.
Our name, 'Elshaddai My Helper,' reflects our commitment to being present for those who need support most. Since 2017, we have provided thousands of essential items, countless hot meals, and—most importantly—human connection and dignity to members of our community facing homelessness.
Currently registered with the Charity Commission (No. 1173678), we continue to expand our services with plans for health partnerships and housing support initiatives, always guided by our core mission of reaching out, supporting, and empowering.
Over the years, we have evolved our approach, learning from the communities we serve and adapting our programs to address real needs. Today, we operate monthly/quarterly programs, supported by 10+ dedicated volunteers and countless generous donors who share our vision.

We provide practical, compassionate support by offering essential basics such as food, toiletries and clothing. Our aim is to treat people with dignity, understanding, and respect — supporting them where they are, without judgement.
