Just last week I found out that Dolly Parton is massively involved in various charities, and has been for decades. She's a huge literacy advocate and donates books to underprivileged children, for example, among many other things. I never knew about any of that.

Reason being, she's not a Look-At-Me-Stanley, trumpeting her righteousness to anyone who'll listen. She just does good stuff without making a big deal about telling anyone, which implies that it's less about PR and more about actually helping people.

I think that's neat. Some people act like they're trying to buy their way into Heaven, and that really gets on my nerves.
