NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — East Tennessee Children’s Hospital is officially changing it's name to Dolly Parton Children's Hospital.
The announcement was made via a video on the hospital's website on Thursday.
"I am so honored to support these doctors and nurses and their team members and volunteers who show up every day with courage and kindness," she said in the video. "I hope that you'll join me in supporting this work. I can't do it all myself. I'm going to need you. So when we come together for our children, there's no limit to what we can do."

Young or old, we all love to play board and card games! Those games become even more important when you are indoors and don't have the ability to get outside, like patients in a hospital. Austin Pollack shares the story of students in a Nashville family who have helped re-launch the Red Wagon project to collect games for patients at the Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt.
