I was so touched by your show yesterday, I fell asleep last night thinking of a way that I might be able to find a little extra in my budget this month to donate to Mr. Williams. I don’t have much but would love to give what I can. I know what it is like to have dreams, and feel like they cant be achieve, if I could just do a little to help Mr. Williams achieve his dream, I would feel blessed.

Ellen, please, please, please post a copy of the tape of yesterday's show with Alfred. I have so many people (including my children) that I want to share that segment with. My children are no doubt going to empty their piggy banks when they hear his heartwarming story and see how genuine and loveable he is. That is the most beautiful man I have ever seen and his smile reminds me of Bill Cobsy!!! Please post the tape or let us know how to find it! We want to help!!!!! xoxo Tracey Anderson Edgewood, WA

I had to let you know how much I enjoyed seeing Alfred and his teacher on your show. What a great message!! I am from Missouri as well , and finally a Missourian who makes it on a talk show that isn't Jerry Springer's!!! I would also love to donate to help Alfred build his house on a hill. You make me smile!

Ellen, I was wondering if I could get a copy of Alfred on your show? I teach mild to moderate Special Ed students. Reading and learning in general has been a hard road for them and a lot of them have given up. I think Alfred is very inspirational and I would like to show them this clip.

Thanks!!!!!

What a great segment in your show. Mr. Williams reaction to the gift was incredibly heartwarming. I'd like to contribute to the cause; how do I do that?

Ellen, love your show, but Mr Alfred was stole the show. He is an inspiration for all of America to see. I would love to help contribute to his dream. Are you going to set something up so your fans and his fans can help?
I got hooked on your show one year ago in April. When I was recovering from back surgery and you hurt your back. YOur show kept me laughing during a tough recovery.
thanks for being a good role model for all

I LOVE "Alferd" as spelled on his hat. His name should be "Sugar." This man is a wonderful light among what has been a dark year for me. I needed him. Where may I make a rather small donation (because of my current situation) to his home? I would give this man whatever I can.

Ellen:
Thank you for making so many people's lives a little brighter. I record your show and watch late at night. Almost without exception I am laughing so hard, that my husband or daughter come to see what's going on. Tonight I watched Alfred get overjoyed by the gift you gave. I know in your world it was an easy gift to give...but what you did will quite possibly change his life. It was incredible to watch. To top it off you gave the "non-cheater" (Ha, just kidding) a trip to Hawaii, when she didn't expect it...and again an act of kindness, freely given, it brightens the world.
I think about writing to you all the time because your show touches me so often, but tonight I really had to do it. So, from small town Indiana a very BIG thank you for using your gift of comedy to make me laugh out loud, and for using your resources to make this world a nicer place. Bravo!

Thank You for showing Mr. Williams today, He is a real inspiration. He taught me: It's never to late to do what you want and need to do, and be proud to accomplish whatever it may be.

"Thanks for this show" It really made my day. To see someone that tried so hard for sooooo long to fulfil a promise to his mother and was rewarded for his tenacity. His Joy came through the screen and lit my soul. My eyes filled with tears of joy for both Aflred, his teacher and you. I was happy for the rest of the day. I didn't have to wait til Friday to get happy. That show did it for me today. Thanks for giving us all so, much hope. Wow. Wow. Wow.
