We are deeply saddened by the passing of country music legend Dolly Parton, an artist whose generosity and passion reached far beyond the stage.

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library was one of the accomplishments she cherished most. Through the program, hundreds of millions of free books have reached children across America, helping spark a lifelong love of reading. Thank you for being a literacy champion, Dolly. ❤️

Every child in Clallam County is qualified to receive a book by mail, at no cost to their families, every month until their 5th birthday. You can sign up at NOLS.org/Imagination-Library thanks to our partnership with United Way of Clallam County. Consider donating in memory of Dolly to support early childhood literacy.
