How can I help him trust me.?

Question

I have never done anything to him to make him feel that he can not. Our trust issues are not the standard cheating thing. He just outright wont let me in. He has been through a lot in his life. Beatings, rapes and he works at a job that doesnt increase his faith in people. We have only known each other for less than a month but for whatever reason I am compelled to help him. This man is broken and his walls have held him back. Please tell me what I can do to help him be human again. He seems like a walking zombie .

Men your help is most important here.
