About
Ruth "Ladybug" Johnson Memorial Foundation

Here at Ruth "Ladybug" Johnson Memorial Foundation, we see the value in everyone. We want to be a catalyst for positive change, and since our beginning in 2021, we’ve been driven by the same ideas we initially founded our Charitable Foundation upon: support, empowerment and progress.

Dealing with the challenges of today requires problem-solvers who bring different perspectives and are willing to take risks. Ruth "Ladybug" Johnson Memorial Foundation emerged out of a pursuit to inspire and support the community, and a desire for actions to speak louder than words.

During past years, our foundation organized several community events that received support from local businesses. These events included a Back to School Drive, where free haircuts and backpacks were given away, as well as the We Still Care Giveaway, which provided coats, clothing, toiletries, and toys to those in need. Additionally, we hosted a Thanksgiving "We Still Care" Lunch and a Turkey Giveaway. These events not only brought the community together, but also provided much-needed support to individuals and families.
