You can be surrounded by people or connected online 24/7—and still feel completely alone.

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗺 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻. Whether you're packing food boxes, planting community gardens, or assembling school kits, volunteering turns isolation into real-world, meaningful relationships.

As our Senior Program Manager, John Afryl, puts it:
"Volunteers praise not only the impact of the project, but the way it made them feel."

We were so honored to join Legacy Good Samaritan Medical Center at the Beaverton City Library for their Community Baby Shower! This wonderful initiative provides birthing families in need with essential supplies, vital resources, and community connections.

We loved connecting with parents and sharing how Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library supports early learning right from the start by delivering free books straight to their homes every month. 👶💙
