Reading all these posts and seeing all the news reports tells me I should know a lot more about her. Obviously I've heard of her and know basically who she is... But that's about it. 🤷‍♀

I guess I'll take everyone's word for her being special. 🙂

@sarabee1995 Her philanthropic work was unbelievably extensive, and you may have even benefited from it.

If I remember correctly, you got the Moderna vaccine when you were first vaccinated against COVID-19. I did too. Dolly helped with this by donating one million dollars toward the development of the vaccine (and challenged others to do the same if they could) and “her donation funded the critical early stages of development of the Moderna vaccine.”

This is just a small example of the good work she did. For a more comprehensive view, I recommend checking out her Wikipedia page:

@Rutterman Oh wow. And, yes, I did get the Moderna vaccine, several times. I had no idea she was involved in that. Thank you. ♥
