CHICAGO – Despite having a popular talk show and continuing her reign as one of America’s favorite TV cooks, Rachael Ray still has time for charity, as demonstrated in this HollywoodChicago.com slideshow at her book signing last month at Barnes & Noble in suburban Oakbrook, Illinois.
Ray was there on December 10th, 2010, greeting fans and signing her “Look + Cook” book, but she also had time for “The Best Friends Network Charity for Pet Adoption,” donating a portion of her profits from Nutrish, her line of pet food. Volunteers and hopeful furry adoptees from the Chicago Canine Rescue Foundation were recipients of Ms. Ray’s charity.
