Dolly Parton's Dollywood Foundation has given out the last of its funds to nearly 900 families displaced by deadly wildfires in Tennessee last year. The My People fund gave out $10,000 each to families in Sevier County after wildfires struck in November, killing 14 people and damaging thousands of buildings. The singer also said $3 million will be used to start a new fund called Mountain Tough Recovery, which will continue to aid residents affected by the fires.
