Country singer, Dollywood founder, and Tennessee native Dolly Parton
is giving back to her community after it was ravaged by wildfires.
At least seven people were killed in wildfires that spread across the
Great Smoky Mountains National Park over the last week. Thousands of
people were evacuated and hundreds of homes may have been destroyed.
Parton, whose Dollywood Park narrowly escaped the fires, pledged on
Wednesday night to donate $1,000 a month to every family that lost their
home in the fire for the next six months.
Parton and her Dollywood Foundation also created the “My People Fund” to allow other people who feel so inclined to donate to the cause as well.
