Dolly Parton’s legacy continues to live on in so many ways, especially when it comes to giving back. The country icon spent decades giving back in countless ways and touching so many lives along the way. She was a true inspiration and humanitarian.
Today, September 25, The Dollywood Foundation is celebrating Give Like Dolly Day. The 9/25 date, a nod to Dolly’s famous song “9 to 5,” honors her longtime commitment to children’s literacy and encourages folks to support their local Imagination Library programs, which provide free books to young children.

Popular fashion brand American Eagle is joining the celebration of Give Like Dolly Day, and honestly, it’s a pretty perfect match. Dolly had impeccable style, so this collaboration just makes sense! American Eagle is offering two Dolly-inspired pieces, jeans and a graphic tee, and all proceeds from both pieces will be donated to The Dollywood Foundation.
- The Dolly Jean: AE’s Super High-Waisted Flare Jean, will be renamed ‘The Dolly Jean’ for Dolly Day. Available online HERE and in stores.
- Dolly Parton Graphic Tee: A new online-exclusive tee launching for $34.95. Available online HERE.

Now’s the time to add a little Dolly flair to your closet while supporting a fantastic cause. September 25 sounds like a pretty perfect shopping day to us!
