Share Dolly’s Love of Reading.

Dolly Parton believed that every child deserves the joy of books. Today, more local families than ever are embracing that dream, and you can help us welcome every new reader.

Help us put books into the hands of our local children!

The Community Foundation of the Central Blue Ridge is proud to serve as the local program partner for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, bringing free, high-quality books to children from birth to age five in Staunton, Waynesboro, and Augusta County.

Each month, a new book arrives in the mail, addressed to the child. With every delivery comes an opportunity for families to read together, spark a child's imagination, and nurture a lifelong love of learning.

As enrollment continues to grow, so does our commitment to ensuring that every eligible child has the opportunity to experience the joy of receiving books of their very own.

Your gift today will help us keep Dolly’s dream alive—one child, one book, and one story at a time.
