🌟 Campaigner Spotlight: Meet Noah Grot! 🌟

Noah works at The First National Bank in Amboy and is proud to volunteer with United Way of Lee County!

“United Way is like a one-stop shop for local giving. One donation spreads across dozens of organizations and communities.”

Noah believes true community is created when we recognize the value of every person, care for one another and work together. And a fun fact about Noah? He generally eats 4–8 eggs every day! 🥚🍳

Thank you, Noah, for helping us build a stronger, more caring community!

Our Dolly-themed scarecrow is ready for Scarecrow Festival! ✨ We had so much fun bringing a little Dolly sparkle to downtown Dixon.

Be sure to stop by and see her this Saturday—and cheer on the contestants as United Way leads the Donut Eating Contest! 🍩 We can’t wait to see everyone at the festival!

👢💕 That’s a Wrap, Dolly Style! 💕👢

What a wonderful Saturday at the Downtown Dolly Stampede! We are so grateful to everyone who came out, joined in the fun, searched for hidden Dollys, and supported Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library!

📚✨ Together, we sponsored 31 Lee County children to receive FREE books for an entire year! That means more books, more stories, and more opportunities to inspire a love of reading right here in our community. 💗

A HUGE thank you to all of the amazing downtown businesses that participated and helped make our scavenger hunt so much fun. We couldn’t have done it without you!

And a special thank you to Coravera Events & Coordination for the absolutely beautiful Dolly-inspired backdrop that added the perfect touch of sparkle to our event! ✨📸

Most of all, thank you to every person who participated, donated, and helped us celebrate Dolly’s incredible legacy of literacy and giving back.
