Helene flooding victims, flood insurance
Appalachia native Dolly Parton announced a $1 million donation for Hurricane Helene relief efforts. The donation will support Mountain Ways Foundation to aid flood victims.
Parton expressed her connection to the affected region and her desire to help those in need. She was accompanied by Walmart CEO John Furner, who pledged $10 million for hurricane relief.
As the death toll from Helene rises, Parton hopes her donation will inspire others to contribute to recovery efforts. Satellite images reveal the extent of the devastation, with President Biden estimating billions in rebuilding costs.
By sharing her light amid darkness, Parton aims to uplift and support those affected by the natural disaster.
