WATCH: Guy Fieri Surprises New Orleans Woman With $25,000 Scholarship

Guy Fieri, Food Network star and host of fan-favorite show Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, recently surprised a New Orleans woman with a $25,000 scholarship.

The Mayor of Flavortown shared the life-changing news with Jamie Warrick on his new show Guy's Restaurant Reboot in a segment called "Help Rebuild Restaurants Grant." Warrick, a single mother attending the University of Holy Cross as a first-generation college student, has been pursuing a culinary career while working as a sous chef for the last five years, FOX 8 Live reports.

In the video, Fieri can be seen speaking with Warrick before telling her she was being given $25,000, instantly bringing tears to her eyes as excited screams fill the air.

Watch the special moment between Fieri and Warrick unfold in the video below.

"You are an inspiration," Fieri told Warrick. "You're an inspiration to so many people because you have a lot going on in your life as it is. Being a single mom is tough."

The $25,000 scholarship will help Warrick continue her pursuit of knowledge to grow in her career, according to FOX 8. Her dream is to help minorities develop food products and businesses, and she hopes to open a food incubation hub for small food businesses that could help them launch and be successful. Now, with the grant, she can make that a reality.

"It's such a relief."
