To say that Dolly Parton is a legend is a bit of a euphemism. The icon has been all over the news lately because earlier this year she contributed $1m (about R15m) to coronavirus research, which helped produce the Moderna vaccine. But this is just some of the philanthropic work she does. Since 1995, as a tribute to her father, Parton has worked to improve literacy via her Imagination Library project. This started off in her home town of Tennessee, where a free book was given to children once a month from the time they were born until they headed off to school. The project has since gone global and has donated over 100-million books.
