Communities worldwide are dedicating Friday to honoring Dolly Parton. The day falls on Sept. 25, a wink at her hit song “9 to 5.” Parton, who died of cancer last month at age 80, left a legacy as a singer-songwriter, actor, philanthropist and entrepreneur. In the U.S., many states are establishing Sept. 25 as Dolly Parton Day, highlighting her career and commitment to improving literacy. People can celebrate by donating to her Imagination Library or dressing in her signature style. Parton hoped her songs would have a lasting impact.
