Dolly launched the Imagination Library in 1995, inspired by her father's inability to read and write. She wanted to ensure every young child in her community had access to books, regardless of their family's financial situation.

It now operates globally, and as of today, over 343 MILLION books have been gifted (over 3 million children are currently registered, including 1 in every 6 right here in the US). 🌎🇺🇸

By the time they turn five, each child in the program will have received up to 60 books! Fostering early literacy, and a lifelong love for reading... 🤓🤘🍂

Our hearts are broken here at headquarters.

“If I am to be remembered 100 years from now, I hope it will be not for looks but for books.” -Dolly Parton

Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old.

Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000).

A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact.

At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging or by leaving a message at www.dollyparton.com

In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at www.imaginationlibrary.com
