Oprah Winfrey amassed a significant amount of money throughout her career and she has donated millions of it to charities and organizations, including her own, like The Angel Network, The Oprah Winfrey Foundation, the Oprah Winfrey Operating Foundation, and The Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls in South Africa. In 2011, the talk show maven received an honorary Oscar for her outstanding humanitarian work. The Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award is given periodically for those who show exemplary philanthropic efforts and Winfrey earned one for her dedication to supporting educational initiatives and raising awareness of issues that affect women and children in the U.S. and across the globe.
