Right here in Pinal County, over 3,000 children receive a free book every month through our Reading by 3rd Grade Initiative, in partnership with Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.
Behind every book is a community of people who believe in the power of giving—our donors, volunteers, local partners and supporters who help make this program possible.

Today, on Give Like Dolly Day, you can help us reach even more children and families in Pinal County.

Every gift helps us continue building a community where children can grow up surrounded by the joy of books and reading.

Help us make an even bigger impact for the children of Pinal County: t.ly/7Ezl4

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Dolly Parton, a talented singer, songwriter, actress, author, philanthropist, and entrepreneur.

United Way of Pinal County is proud to be a partner in one of her most impactful philanthropic efforts - Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.

Through this program, funded by your donations, more than 3000 children under the age of five in Pinal County receive a free book each month to foster a love of reading and prepare them for kindergarten.

The Imagination Library reflected Dolly’s extraordinary love for children and her belief in the power of books to inspire their dreams. "Before he passed away, my Daddy told me the Imagination Library was probably the most important thing I had ever done,” she said. “I can't tell you how much that meant to me because I created the Imagination Library as a tribute to my Daddy.”

Dolly's family has asked that those wishing to honor her make a gift to the Imagination Library, and we invite you to support the program here in Pinal County and carry her legacy forward: t.ly/5H6KA
