The Oprah Winfrey Charitable Foundation (formally The Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy Foundation) is a tax-deductible charity with total assets of US$172 million.[1] In 2006, Winfrey added US$36 million of her own money to the Foundation.[1]

In 2020, the foundation donated US$10 million to COVID-19 relief efforts: money will go feed those most impacted by the coronavirus epidemic in America, including children who rely on school lunch programs, low-income families, the elderly, and individuals facing job disruptions.[2]
