A Mission Built Around Serving Others

For 25 years, RU4Children has served children, families and communities facing poverty, crisis and difficult circumstances.

What began as a desire to help vulnerable children has grown into a mission that has responded to different communities, cultures and humanitarian needs around the world.

Meet Trey

Our Founder

For 25 years, Trey has been at the heart of RU4Children. His work has taken him into very different communities and circumstances, responding to the needs of children, families and people facing crisis.

Rather than building RU4Children around one country or one type of program, Trey has allowed the mission to follow where help is needed most — a willingness to respond that has become an important part of RU4Children's identity.

RU4Children's 25-year history includes long-term community work, humanitarian response and important early chapters.
