Helps For All CIC is a community organisation based in Kent. Our team is made up of passionate individuals with lived experiences of hardship, migration, and social exclusion. Together, we bring expertise in social work, community outreach, and grassroots organising. We founded Helps For All to address the growing challenges of food poverty, homelessness, and social isolation particularly among Black ethnic communities and other vulnerable groups. Through our programmes in food distribution, housing support, and wellness outreach, we provide not only emergency assistance but also hope, dignity, and long-term empowerment. Our vision is to build a connected and resilient community where no one is left behind a community where everyone, regardless of background, has access to food, shelter, support, and a genuine sense of belonging. The project operates from a community hall on the High Street and supports individuals referred by partner organisations. In addition to food assistance, we offer help to those experiencing loneliness or homelessness. All our services are provided free of charge, ensuring that support remains accessible to everyone who needs it. With your support, we aim to: Expand our food support programme by purchasing food supplies and covering packaging and delivery costs. Train volunteers in safeguarding, wellbeing, and community care. Provide temporary emergency accommodation for individuals and families at risk of homelessness. Run community wellbeing sessions to tackle isolation, promote mental health, and strengthen social connections. Every pound you donate helps us reach more people faster with warmth, care, and practical solutions that truly change lives.
