How Oprah Inspired Will.i.am to Put 60 Kids Through College

CC | tv-pg

In 2009, will.i.am surprised four deserving high school students on The Oprah Winfrey Show with a full ride to college. Now, during his appearance on Oprah's Super Soul Conversations, the Grammy-winning musician and philanthropist tells Oprah how he was inspired in that moment to "do more"—specifically, to sponsor the education of 60 young people in his underserved community. "Now, those 60 kids are about to graduate college," will.i.am says.

Listen to Oprah and will.i.am's full conversation on Oprah's Super Soul Conversations podcast, available on Apple Podcasts beginning Monday, June 4.
