Apparently, there is no quality school for poor girls in the whole country of south africa. Did you know that?

Good for her. Now if we can get more of these greedy billionaires to actually try to reach out and help someone else, this world would be a much better place.

I find it very hard to believe a school cost that much and is necessary in that country. Frankly I am disappointed she hasn't chosen to help the children in this country. Especially given the fact the show she ran after the "new school" was about the unforgiving poverty hidden in this country. It's gotta be at least as much about tax shelter as it has to do with kids and why can't boys go too. I'm sure there are boys whose families are affected by HIV also (this is her reasoning for opening the school for girls) I've always been suspicious of charities in other countries. Especially those promoted on TV. Feed a child, adopt a child etc. We have a great need in this country also. I apreciate her efforts but am disappointed in her direction.

Yes, I knew that. Her Angels Network has been trying to raise money for schools and children in Africa for years now. And even if that really is just a drop in the bucket for her, I still commend her for her efforts.

Oprah is very generous. I've seen her give out a car to each of her audience and more.

Yes, I knew that and it is great that someone with such wealth is doing such a great deed.. if all the billionaires would help like she does - what a difference it would make.

she is showin some luv, and those girls over there need it. i say why not if ya got the money. help the communities, give a little back. plus maybe she thinks of these girls as her children.
