Our Purpose

Ruby was a young girl with a unique warmth and care for others and a desire to ensure that nobody missed out on the opportunities she had.

The Ruby Tuesday Foundation is Ruby’s legacy and has been established to carry forward Ruby’s goals and message of kindness, inclusion, and to ensure that kids are given the chance to shine.

Ruby’s characteristics and values remain our guiding principles and the Ruby Tuesday Foundation is our chance to make a difference in the lives of other children while ensuring Ruby’s spirit and voice remains everlasting.
