We support education … by empowering hundreds of students to further their education. Ruiz 4 Kids distributes thousands and thousands of dollars to qualifying high school seniors every year.
We understand the
importance of education in improving the quality of life for local children and growing our future leaders. Ruiz 4 Kids scholarships transform the dream of attending
college into reality for dozens of students within the communities where Ruiz Foods has a presence.
Funds raised by the Ruiz Golf Invitational have allowed Ruiz 4 Kids to distribute over $890,000 in scholarships. In 2009, we awarded $162,000 to over 200 students.
Along with the Ruiz 4 Kids Scholarship Awards, we are proud to announce the addition of the Louis F. Ruiz Memorial Scholarship.
