A nonprofit for underserved youth
A legacy of care, continued through access.
Betty Ruth, Inc. helps underserved youth gain the technology, exposure, and encouragement they need to thrive in a digital world.
Her work in a children's hospital reflected a belief that young people deserve compassion, support, and opportunity.
Betty Ruth, Inc. was inspired by Betty Ruth's lifelong commitment to caring for children and families. Her work in a children's hospital reflected a deep belief that young people deserve compassion, support, and opportunity.
This organization carries that spirit forward by helping underserved youth access tools and experiences that can open doors in school and life — through laptops, digital literacy, STEM learning, and mentorship.
We help students build confidence and imagine futures that may not have felt reachable before.
What we do
Five program areas. One clear mission.
What we believe
Technology access is a bridge to opportunity.
Every child deserves access.
A student's ability to learn, create, and participate should not be limited by whether they have reliable technology at home.
Confidence grows through exposure.
When youth are introduced to STEM, digital skills, and technology careers, they begin to see new pathways for themselves.
Mentorship matters.
Supportive adults and role models help students build belief, direction, and resilience as they grow.
Community changes outcomes.
Families, schools, mentors, and partners all play a role in helping young people succeed.
Helping young people see more options for their future.
