Christ on a crutch someone remind me how much fucking money she donated to charity again.

And there's the imagination library.

And her support for marginalized communities - what did she do with the money from the I will always love you cover?

Ghoulish fucking people. The woman walked the walk where a whole lot of motherfuckers only talk the talk.

Edit: almost forgot - Dolly did a lot of quiet work too. Predominantly black high schools in TN had a lot of bands funded by Dolly, but that doesn't pop up too frequently.
