Answer:

Winfrey is also a committed philanthropist, providing significant assistance to schools (Morehouse College, Tennessee State University, Chicago Academy of Arts) as well as to the Chicago Public Schools. She also funds battered women's shelters and campaigns to catch child abusers. In 1987 Oprah created The Oprah Winfrey Foundation "to support the education and empowerment of women, children, and families in the United States and around the world." The charity has awarded millions of dollars to organizations throughout the world to improve education and healthcare. In 1997 she founded Oprah's Angel Network to inspire people to make a difference in the lives of others. So far the group has raised $80 million from audience donations and some celebrity contributors.
