"Working with two wonderful partners is an honor and a privilege. Together with the outstanding philanthropist Rachel Ray, we have already traveled to Ukraine five times.

We will continue to make a difference in their lives," said Futei.
Background
Last year at the Lviv Youth Educational Center, American star chef and author of popular cookbooks Rachel Ray and her friends held a master class.
Ray held a master class with children studying to become cooks and older children of internally displaced persons from Lysychansk, who currently live in the center. Together, they prepared spaghetti with tomatoes, meatballs, and a salad of fresh vegetables. Her colleague, Italian Giancarla Bodoni, showed future cooks how to make lemon pie.
For the student chefs at the Saint John Bosco Youth Training Center, Rachel Ray brought a gift of equipment for 12 culinary work surfaces, including induction stoves, cookware, and various kitchen utensils. The guests gave toys to the children.
In July of this year, the TOP USA Awards and the presentation of the book Top 100 American Entrepreneurs of Ukrainian Origin were held in New York at the historic Cipriani building in Manhattan.
