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."
Here’s a story offering a great example of how a common cause, and a little creativity, can “intersect” to improve quality of life. Our South Nashville reporter Patsy Montesinos shares how some neighbors decided to take action, following the tragic death of a 77-year-old in a hit-and-run along Antioch Pike earlier this year. See how they used “tactical urbanism” to make the area a little safer for all.
