Thank you to everyone who has contributed to !

Every month, children enrolled in Dolly Parton's Imagination Library receive a high-quality, age-appropriate book at no cost to their family. By the age of five, children can build up a personal library of up to 60 books! For many children, it's the first piece of mail addressed just to them.

It's not too late to donate! You can help ensure that excitement continues for children across our community. Whether it's $9.25 or $92.50, every contribution helps support children and families through the power of books.
