Unite in Red
Supporting families facing one of life’s toughest tests.
The Ruth Strauss Foundation is proud to announce the seventh edition of our flagship fundraising day, #RedforRuth, taking place on Thursday, July 10th, 2025.
This year, we return to the iconic Lord’s Cricket Ground for a powerful day of unity, remembrance, and support during the First Men’s Test between England and India. Join us as we fill the stands with red—players, fans, and broadcasters standing together to honour families facing one of life’s toughest challenges: the loss of a parent.
In 2025, we’re going even bigger. Whether you’re at Lord’s, watching from home, or wearing red in your school or office, every action helps raise awareness and vital funds for our mission. Your support helps us provide emotional and practical support to families when it’s needed most.
