Our Mission
Ruth’s Embrace exists to honor God by passing practical, self-reliant living skills and faithful care from one generation to the next.
Inspired by the biblical Ruth’s devotion, we walk alongside grandparents raising grandchildren, homeschooling families, and caregivers — teaching homesteading, gardening, canning, raising livestock, beekeeping, hunting, and home repair alongside compassionate companionship — so families can thrive together across generations.

How Ruth’s Embrace Fits Into Our Mission
Legacy Keepers Foundation is built around one belief: every family’s story and every family’s wisdom deserve to be carried forward. Our other programs and services help families capture and preserve the stories of the people they love. Ruth’s Embrace is where that wisdom gets lived out — grandparents teaching grandchildren to can tomatoes, a neighbor showing a young family how to keep bees, a caregiver simply sitting with someone who needs company. It’s the flagship program of the Foundation: the hands and the heart behind the mission.
A Program Just Beginning
