Every great story starts somewhere.

Sometimes, it starts with a book that sparks curiosity, a character who makes a child feel seen, or a shared story that brings a family closer.

At Linked2Literacy, we believe every child deserves access to books and literacy experiences that open doors to new possibilities.

Through community partnerships, we’re putting inclusive books into little hands, equipping caregivers with literacy tools, and creating opportunities for children and families to learn, connect, and grow.

It starts with a book, and sometimes, it starts with the excitement of seeing one in the mailbox.

One of our Imagination Library families recently shared this sweet note about their 11-month-old’s growing love of books.

He may be little, but those moments matter. Every story shared is an opportunity to build connection, spark curiosity, and grow a love of reading that can last a lifetime.

Through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, children receive a free, age-appropriate book every month. Linked2Literacy helps fund those books right here in our community, making these little moments possible for local families.

To every family reading along, and every supporter helping keep the books coming: thank you. You’re helping write the beginning of so many beautiful stories.

BAYLOR EVNAN JUST SHOWED US WHAT OUR COMMUNITY CAN DO.

Their Imagination 100 campaign raised $2,880.14, enough to provide 90 local children with a full year of books through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.

Here’s the part we want more people to know: the books may have Dolly’s name on them, but the funding that keeps them coming to local children comes from our community.

Linked2Literacy helps fund every book mailed through the Imagination Library in our community, which means we need businesses, families, teams, friend groups, and big-hearted people like YOU to help keep it going.

So, what could your Imagination 100 campaign do?

Host a fundraiser. Challenge your coworkers. Get your friends involved.

However you do it, you’re helping put books in the hands of local children every single month.

Baylor Evnan did it, now we want to see who’s next.

Start your own Imagination 100 campaign!!

While Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library gets the books to children, Linked2Literacy provides the funding that makes those books possible right here in our community.

That means this incredible number is a reflection of what our community is making happen.

However, there are still children to reach, books to fund, and imaginations to fuel.

That’s why we’re asking businesses and individuals to start an Imagination 100 campaign. Together, you can help fund books local children.

56% is something to celebrate. Let’s keep making it possible.

Some of the most meaningful moments can be as simple as sitting down and sharing a book.

Reading together helps children build language, curiosity, connection, and a lifelong love of stories. It doesn’t have to be complicated. All it takes is a few minutes, a favorite book, and someone willing to read.
