History of Angel Network

Oprah's Angel Network started small, turning spare change into college scholarships.

All sorts of people sent in their spare change...including then-first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton! "We started to keep change in that when we heard about your Angel Network," she said.

The grand total, over $3.5 million, provided $25,000 college scholarships for 150 deserving students—that's three students from every state!
