We join so many across Tennessee and beyond in mourning the loss of Dolly Parton.
As a Tennessee-headquartered organization, we are especially grateful for the way Dolly gave back to the place she called home. Her generosity, compassion, and commitment to helping others touched countless lives—from her work supporting children and families to her efforts to strengthen communities across Tennessee.
Dolly reminded us that success means even more when it creates opportunities for others. Her legacy of kindness and giving will continue to inspire generations.
