Ruel Foundation Children's Home


The Ruel Foundation works closely with authorities to help rescue children that are close to death from starvation or abuse. In many cases we just provide milk powder to assist a family in getting a child’s weight up, however, in some cases this is not enough. The Department of Social Welfare usually ask us to accept the child into our Ruel House until the child is strong enough to return to their family or be placed for adoption.

The Surgeries We Perform


The Ruel Foundation raises money to provide free surgeries for children living in poverty with physical deformities in developing nations. Often, a physical deformity that is relatively simple to operate on goes unattended well into adulthood. The Foundation concentrates on children who live in poverty in isolated areas with little hope of help. To participate in this program you can donate to an individual child or make a general donation that will go to the next needy child.

Success Stories

Ruel Copada before treatment

BEFORE
AFTER
Ruel, our namesake, was found suffering from malnutrition in a hospital due to a cleft lip with cleft palate. He was unable to suckle properly or ingest food to satisfy his growing body. His mother could not afford the surgery to rectify this ailment, or the nutrients necessary to provide her child with an adequate diet. Thanks to the simple surgery to rectify this problem Ruel is now a happy and healthy little boy.
