Today, we join people around the world in remembering Dolly Parton, a beloved artist, storyteller and champion for children. ❤️

Through Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, her extraordinary kindness has reached families far beyond Tennessee, placing hundreds of millions of books into the hands of young children, including more than 1.7 million right here in Central Minnesota.

For us, Dolly’s legacy is personal. It lives on each time a child discovers a new story, a family reads together, or a book arrives in the mailbox with a child’s name on it.

Today, 6,891 children in Central Minnesota are enrolled in Imagination Library, making our program the largest Imagination Library program in Minnesota.

In lieu of flowers, Dolly’s family has asked that donations be made to the Imagination Library, the literacy program she founded and loved so deeply. Gifts made through United Way of Central Minnesota will help continue that legacy by providing free books to children in our community from birth to age five.

Honor Dolly’s life by helping the next generation dream more, learn more, care more and be more.
