About the Event

Supporting Literacy in Palm Beach County

Dolly Parton's Imagination Library is an award-winning book gifting program for children ages 0-5. The Imagination Library mails each child enrolled a high-quality, age-appropriate book each month, at no cost to the family, from birth through their fifth birthday! The program works through The Dollywood Foundation, which provides key systems, and local community partners, who enroll families and pay the monthly cost of books.
