Welcome To The Ruel Foundation
"The Ruel Foundation was formed in 2000 after finding a child in the Philippines, named Ruel, dying from what was an easily treatable problem. Now the Ruel Foundation helps hundreds of children in developing nations all round the world who have been “forgotten” and need relatively minor surgery. (To read more please go to the ABOUT US section of this website)"
"We are now operating the Ruel House in the Philippines. This now enables us to look after children and their families pre and post operation and ensure they are ready for surgery. It also is home to several malnourished children whom the Foundation are looking after until they are back to full strength."
