The Atlantic Charter helped Britain by helping them gain an ally who was rich, able to supply the things they needed and send thousands of men to fight against the Nazis. See explanation from Wikipedia under the heading of Atlantic Charter.

It was drafted at the Atlantic Conference (codenamed Riviera) by British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, aboard warships in a secure anchorage in Ship Harbour, Newfoundland and was issued as a joint declaration on 14 August 1941. This statement was drafted and agreed while the British were fighting in World War II against Nazi Germany, however, there was no formal, legal document entitled "The Atlantic Charter". The term "Atlantic Charter" was coined by the Daily Herald, a London newspaper, after the joint declaration had been published. The United States did not enter the War until the Attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Potentially, it would detail the goals and aims of the Allied powers concerning the war and the post-war world. The ideals expressed through the eight points of the Atlantic Charter were so popular that the Office of War Information printed 240,000 posters of it in 1943, which was OWI Poster No. 50. Additionally, it might also be seen as a "changing of the guard" from Britain to the United States as the world's leading power.
The Atlantic Charter was a policy that declared the Allies goals for the world once World War II was over. It was World War II itself that caused the creation of this statement.

The so-called "Atlantic Charter" was never an official, signed document. Neither Franklin D. Roosevelt nor Winston Churchill ever signed it. No signed copy has ever existed. At a December 19, 1944 press conference, in response to the direct question, "Did Churchill sign the Atlantic Charter?", FDR replied, "No one ever signed the Atlantic Charter." Supposedly signed on August 14th, 1941, it wasn't even called the "Atlantic Charter" until about a week after the text of the statement was released.

The Atlantic Charter outlined the specific goals of WW2 and what would be done in event of victory for the Allies. Things like not stealing territory and giving freedom back to the countries that the Nazis had occupied.
The Atlantic Charter was a statement agreed between Britain and the United States of America. It was intended as the blueprint for the postwar world after World War II, and turned out to be the foundation for many of the international agreements that currently shape the world. The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), the post-war independence of British and French possessions, and much more are derived from the Atlantic Charter.
