Our Story

FreeHelpCK began with a single act of kindness in Windsor on Christmas Eve 2013, where we provided essentials to more than 400 people in need. What started as one program has grown into a charity with eight initiatives serving thousands across Chatham-Kent.

From nourishing seniors with weekly meals, stocking community food pantries, and equipping students through Operation Backpack, to bringing hope with Kindness Days, Fill the Gap, Holiday Hope, Pet Pantry, and Birthday Boxes— our mission is rooted in compassion.

Guided by our values of love, dignity, and non-judgment, we strive to meet people where they are and remind them they are never alone. At FreeHelpCK, we don’t just provide programs—we provide hope, encouragement, and a sense of community.

​In every step, our actions are imbued with a spirit of non-judgment and unconditional support, principles that are rooted in our faith and dedication to community service. We have progressed from providing events on special days, to weekly food delivery where we provide 400 meals every week, and a number of compassionate programs. We made our goal to never judge an individual, and to continue to provide for our community. We love creating new relationships and taking the time to talk with each new person who wants our help.

Our growth is not just quantified by the numbers but is also measured by the deep, personal relationships we forge. At FreeHelpCK, every interaction is an opportunity to express kindness, foster connections, and strengthen the community fabric, driven by our belief in the transformative power of faith and love in action.
