Some legacies are passed down through stories. This one was passed down through service.

When Solana Rostick joined our Student Service Program back in 2017, she had no idea it would become a family legacy. Years later, her cousins, Kennedy and Xavier, followed in her footsteps, each finding their own version of confidence, community, and purpose along the way.

This is what happens when service gets passed down💛

Dolly Parton’s impact will not only be measured by what she accomplished, but for how many lives she touched along the way.

She reminded us that kindness is powerful. That giving is something everyone can do. And that sometimes, the simplest gesture can make someone’s day a little brighter.

Her legacy will live on in the countless people she encouraged, supported, inspired, and simply made smile.
Today, we’re remembering a true champion of the Power of Giving.

“If you see someone without a smile today, give ‘em yours.”

Thank you, Dolly, for showing the world what it looks like to lead with generosity, compassion, humor, and heart. 💛

Knowledge means something the moment a student actually uses it💡 Swipe through to see what “Preparing to Progress” looks like in action, real stats and real voices from our Student Service Club students this past year.

Twenty years in, this is still the throughline: When you give students the tools and the trust, they don’t just learn leadership, they practice it, right in their own schools and communities.
