HOT NEWS: DOLLY PARTON & JELLY ROLL TO HOST MASSIVE CHARITY CONCERT — PROCEEDS TO BUILD HOMES FOR THE HOMELESS IN NOVATO! 🔥🏡

Country music icon Dolly Parton and breakout star Jelly Roll are teaming up for a once-in-a-lifetime charity concert, and their mission is as powerful as their voices: every single dollar from ticket sales will go toward building permanent housing for the homeless in Novato, California.

Announced just this morning, the event — titled “Hope & Harmony: A Night for Novato” — is set to take place on September 14th at Levi’s Stadium in nearby Santa Clara, with an expected crowd of over 60,000 fans.

“Music heals, but shelter saves lives,” Dolly Parton said in a joint statement. “We’re here to do both.”

A CAUSE CLOSE TO THEIR HEARTS

Both stars have deep personal ties to the cause.

Jelly Roll, who has been open about his past struggles with incarceration and homelessness, said the project hit him deeply.

“There were nights I didn’t have a place to go,” he said. “I remember what it’s like to pray for just a dry blanket and a roof. Now I get to help give that to someone else.”

Dolly Parton, a long-time philanthropist known for her Imagination Library and natural disaster relief efforts, has quietly donated millions to community development causes. But this marks the first time she’s directly addressed housing insecurity in California.

“When you see families living in tents, you know something’s broken,” she said. “So let’s build something better.”

WHAT THE CONCERT WILL FUND

The proceeds — estimated to reach over $10 million — will go directly to a partnership between HomeStrong USA, Habitat for Humanity, and the city of Novato, which has struggled with a rising unsheltered population.

Plans include:

• Building 50 eco-friendly micro-homes

• Creating a support center for mental health and job placement

• Launching a new “Second Start” scholarship fund for homeless youth

Local officials have called the initiative “a miracle.”

“This isn’t just a concert. It’s a movement,” said Novato Mayor Denise Anderson. “We’re witnessing two superstars use their platforms for real, lasting change.”

SURPRISE GUESTS & LIVESTREAM

The lineup for the show already includes performances by Chris Stapleton, Kacey Musgraves, and Post Malone, who will join Jelly Roll for a surprise cross-genre duet. The concert will also be livestreamed globally, with an online donation option built into the platform.

“This is bigger than country music. This is about compassion,” Jelly Roll added.

Fans who can’t attend in person can purchase a $10 digital ticket, with all proceeds still going toward the housing fund.

BUILDING A LEGACY

In closing their announcement, Dolly and Jelly Roll made it clear: this won’t be a one-off. Depending on the success of Hope & Harmony, they plan to take the show nationwide, spotlighting one city at a time.

“If we can help build homes with our voices,” Dolly said, “then honey, let’s sing louder than ever.”
