Give Like Dolly Day honours Dolly’s lifelong commitment to children and her Imagination Library

SEVIERVILLE, Tenn. – The Dollywood Foundation, home of Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, recently announced Give Like Dolly Day on September 25, a global day dedicated to supporting local Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library Programs and honouring Dolly’s extraordinary legacy of inspiring children to dream big and develop a lifelong love of reading. As Dolly often said, “If you can read, you can do anything, dream anything and be anything.”

At the heart of Give Like Dolly Day are the thousands of Local Imagination Library Partners around the world who help carry Dolly’s mission forward in their own communities.
