Meet Our Team
Ellen Thompson, Founder
Ellen knows firsthand the struggles of being a widow after her husband passed away in 2021 after 17 years of marriage. In early 2022, during her own grief recovery, God inspired her to start The Widow's Helper, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization to help other widows by providing free home repairs to those in need.
Ellen has over 20 years of experience as owner of a successful custom drapery business. Creating beautiful and welcoming homes has been her focus for years, and now she wants to rejuvenate the homes of widows in need. She shows passion in everything she does and is looking forward to making a difference in widows' lives around her.
Ellen performs the daily operations and coordinates volunteers, community groups, church partnerships and fundraising campaigns.
