Great Story - Oprhah and School for Girls. Jan 03, 2007
Yesterday Oprah opened a school complex in South Africa which she funded ($40M). The school is for young girls who would not otherwise have the opportunity. Amazing modern complex (28+ acres).

Great story.

Too bad she won't run for President! Although she likely has more power in the position she is in now. :D

Well done to Oprah however, I find it sad that South Africa is not a poor country and yet it takes people outside of it to do things like this.

I think the SA Gov should be ashamed and stop lining its own pockets and start giving it to those that need it.

Amen to that, much more deserving causes in Africa outside of SA

There certainly appear to be many more people with big bank accounts than hearts (except for cardiology departments in hospitals).

I'm going to give a dirham to someone less fortunate. Can I get my own camera crew to film the event for my TV show for higher ratings?

I saw on TV that she was actually ridiculed for not opening a school in the USA..I thought thats phunked up, because other countries so need it more than the US. (even though some may need it more than S. Africa)

well it is her money and she has the right to decide where and how to spend it. she must have had a good motivation to do that in SA. no matter where it was done, it was a great thing. there r others who have lots of money and couldn't care less about such things

yorky...u r such a naughty boy :lol: :lol: :lol:
only u could comment on her A$$...like she was ever a catwalk model or something :roll:
