Ruby's Pantry:The Organization runs a food distribution program that distributes donated corporate surplus food through over 80 church-sponsored distribution sites in the Midwest. In 2022, there were 216,098 families served in these distributions; 18,674,250 pounds of food received from donors.

Ruby's Luck:Housed in a 40,000 square-foot, former-nursing home, the Center is being used to provide lodging and medical services to residents in Polk and Burnett counties in Wisconsin, which are very underserved and surrounded in poverty.

It also has a program where teachers from the local school district that the Organization serves can send home a list for students in need of clothing, and Ruby's Second Hand will fill the order without cost.
