[qwQ82txoFW1] Health Updated on August 07, 2026 EDT — Published on August 07, 2026 EDT After nearly 20 years, Oprah Winfrey is closing a remarkable chapter in South Africa. Her Leadership Academy for Girls, which has helped educate hundreds of young women since 2007, will conclude its residential operations at the end of the 2027 academic year. But this isn't the end of her mission. Oprah says she's shifting her focus to a larger scholarship program that she believes will give even more girls across South Africa access to quality education and life-changing opportunities. What do you think about this decision? Is expanding scholarships a better way to reach more students, or should the academy have remained open?
