Every show you'll see here holds such profound meaning for me, ... I appreciate every hour our viewers spent watching us grow forward and now, through this DVD Collection, I can give back to the world by using its proceeds and the next twenty seasons of my life for what I know is my true calling -- to be of service to women, children and families in need around the world.

I've been doing this a long time and people have made donations and they've been very kind, but no one has ever given our Angel Network $1 million.
These are women who, when I was growing up, made a difference for me. The first time I saw Diana Ross and the Supremes on the 'Ed Sullivan Show,' it changed my life.
