This quote was ATTRIBUTED TO Chavez but I can't find a date and time or written statement he wrote that includes it. Several internet hits indicate he said it during or immediately after his March, 1968, hunger strike, but I can't verify that to be sure.
The Wikipedia biography also lists this as "attributed":

In 1965, he led wine grape farmers to strike for fair pay and union rights. The strike lasted five years and attracted national attention with Chavez' call for consumer boycotts and nonviolent change. A 1974 Louis Harris poll showed 17 million American adults honored the grape boycott.
"You are never strong enough that you don't need help," explained Chavez, the hero who never owned a house or even a car, but helped millions find a better life.
This is all I found

Sometime between 1927 and 1993.
