 A Tennessee Children’s Hospital Has Been Renamed After Dolly Parton

With more than 400 physicians and nearly 2,200 staff members, it treats infants, children, and teens regardless of background or financial means, averaging over 435,000 patient visits each year.


Parton emphasized her lifelong connection to East Tennessee, saying that growing up in the mountains taught her the importance of caring for one another. 


She expressed that every child deserves exceptional medical care delivered with compassion and love, and she sees her involvement as a way to bring hope and healing to families.

Her dedication to children’s wellbeing is longstanding through initiatives like the Dollywood Foundation, the Imagination Library, her children’s book Coat of Many Colors, and her album I Believe in You, she has consistently invested in education, literacy, and joy for young people.
