About
Ruth’s Kids Inc.
"My grandmother, Ruth M. Davis, was, by far, the most influential person in my life. She was a model of patience, integrity, and economic ingenuity – she used what she had to get the job done! No excuses! When my mother passed tragically two months after my birth, she gave up her adult freedom and raised me as her own. I am forever grateful for her sacrifice and refuse to let it be in vain.
Though we lived in an 'at-risk' community, she (with the help of the people in that community) gave me every tool I needed to be successful in life. I want to pay it forward by doing the same for others. I am Ruth's kid - loved, nurtured, and supported; and you can be Ruth's Kids too!”
