RACHAEL RAY NONPROFITS DONATE $4 MILLION FOR COVID-19 WHOLE FAMILY RELIEF
Today, Rachael Ray philanthropies, which include The Rachael Ray Foundation and The Yum-o! Organization, are collectively donating $4 million dollars for a COVID-19 relief plan to help support American families.
The reason why a portion of the sale proceeds from many Rachael Ray products – from pet food to pots and pans – have been directed to charitable giving since their inception becomes clear in moments like these…
The $4 million donation in combined commitments from both organizations is being directed to help fund critically needed food programs and support services for two-legged and four-legged family members alike, delivered through a network of national-reaching and regionally-focused organizations across the US.
Half of the donation’s support will be assigned to food and nutritional programs for kids and families through such partner organizations as: Feeding America, Share Our Strength, World Central Kitchen, National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation, City Harvest, Hunger Free America, Wholesome Wave, Rethink Food, and GreaterGood.Org.
The other half will be dedicated to animal welfare COVID-19 relief efforts through The Rachael Ray Save Them All Grants COVID-19 Relief Program at Best Friends Animal Society. Through this program, Best Friends, one of The Foundation’s long-standing and trusted animal welfare partners, will distribute relief funds to organizations on the front lines across the country such as North Shore Animal League, Austin Pets Alive, Big Dog Ranch, San Antonio Pets Alive and Lost Our Home Rescue.
