We love the confidence and learning this program brings to families in our region ๐Ÿ’
The program exists because of Dolly and her vision, and continues with the support of generous, kind people just like you!
๐Ÿ™ If you're in a position to support the Tamworth program, we'd welcome your donation. As Dolly has shown us, even the most humble beginnings can have amazing outcomes.

Thank you for sharing with children across our region ๐Ÿฅฐ

Dolly Parton was known for her many, many hit country songs, starring roles in films like 9 to 5 and Steel Magnolias, and her business acumen, which ranged from cake mixes to a theme park.

Her legacy extends far beyond music. And for many children, her most significant legacy is literacy.

In Australia, her Imagination Library initiative has touched the lives of 151,000 children.

But those in regional areas say more financial help is needed to keep it alive.

The Tamworth Young Driverโ€™s Expo held from Tuesday to Friday last week provided over 1200 school students with vital road safety skills, but it wouldnโ€™t have been possible without the very generous support of key organisations and people on the day.
