Several weeks ago when we were at my dad's house the little league world series was on. I commented that even though I don't like baseball generally it was enjoyable to watch because it was a sporting event with no sports gambling advertisements.

Dolly’s Imagination Library—which has gifted 332 MILLION books to kids around the world—was inspired by her dad’s inability to read or write. “Before he passed away, my Daddy told me the Imagination Library was probably the most important thing I had ever done,” she said: imaginationlibrary.com

When the Gatlinburg Wildfires happened in 2016, Dolly gave impacted families $1,000/month to help them get back on their feet. This included my father-in-law, who lost everything in the fire. Dolly gave children in TN free books each month, from birth to the age of five. She was a goddamn saint.
