Give Like Dolly Day
Support Read to Succeed's Dolly Parton Imagination Library Program
Read to Succeed (RTS) will be participating in 9 to 5 Dolly Day on September 25 in support of its Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library (DPIL). September 25 will be the Dollywood Foundation’s annual 9 to 5 Dolly Day, a playful tribute to Dolly and her iconic song “9 to 5.”
The Dollywood Foundation’s goal is to make September 25 an easy, repeatable opportunity for local awareness and fundraising rooted in Dolly’s belief that every child should Dream More, Learn More, Care More, and Be More through the gift of books.
Read to Succeed is a local program partner of the Imagination Library, mailing over 8,000 age-appropriate books per month directly into the hands of registered infants, toddlers and preschoolers throughout Erie County.
Imagination Library is giving caregivers across Erie County the opportunity to improve their child’s foundational literacy skills outside of the classroom. 9 to 5 Dolly Day allows us to spotlight our own program that has been gifting the joy of reading and making a difference in children’s lives since 2012.
If you are interested in supporting Read to Succeed in its work of building literacy skills in our youngest learners, please consider donating on September 25 and help continue Dolly’s legacy of literacy here in Erie County.
