In honor of Dolly Parton and her lifelong commitment to helping children discover the joy of reading, let’s show our love for her by supporting Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library of Kentucky! Your donation can help provide a free, age-appropriate book every month to Kentucky children from birth through age five. Your support helps Kentucky children have the opportunity to build a home library, develop a love of reading, and start school ready to learn. The statewide fund provides 50% of the funding needed to deliver these free books to Kentucky children. Let’s honor Dolly’s legacy by opening the world of reading to every Kentucky child.
