UNITED CHESED ensures that when members of our community need a helping hand there is always one there for them.

With global economic insecurities forcing more and more people out of a job each day, poverty is a constantly growing problem in the GTA. Especially for the elderly or those with medical conditions, just keeping food on the table and a roof overhead can be a challenge.

POVERTY RELIEF: United Chesed offers urgent, short-term relief to families and individuals in crisis situations. We help with food, rent, household utilities, and other bills, or use our vast network to connect those in need with available community resources.  Read more...

COMMUNITY RECYCLING: We redistribute furniture, toys, medical supplies, and other resources to those in need. Have items to donate? Find out more here.
