There’s nothing Rach enjoys more than giving back -- and that’s precisely why she started her nonprofit organization, Yum-o!, about 11 years ago.

“[We started it] when we started our television show, really,” Rach says, “to help children in 3 ways: to cook, feed and fund.”

For years, Yum-o! has been funding scholarships, improving school food for kids and helping to feed hungry children in America.

Amazing!

“When I see food in abundance,” Rach explains, “I think of how much my soul has been fed by what we’ve been able to do with our Yum-o! organization over the years.”

And that gratefulness has sparked a wonderful idea in her!

In partnership with her magazine, Rachael Ray Every Day, Yum-o! is launching a new initiative: a contest called Feed It Forward.

This is a contest for charity founders who want 
to take their grassroots organization 
to the next level.

We LOVE that!

The winner will receive $3,000 for his or her cause, a feature in the April 2018 issue of Rachael Ray Every Day and -- get this! -- a mentoring session with Rach herself!
