DOLLY PARTON’S IMAGINATION LIBRARY
“You can never get enough books into the hands of enough children!”
Dolly Parton's Imagination Library is an early childhood literacy program that provides free, high-quality books monthly to children from birth to age five. Founded by Dolly Parton in 1995, it aims to inspire a love of reading by partnering with local communities. The initiative promotes literacy, strengthens family bonds, and prepares young minds for future success.
