Change the story for Harrisonburg and Rockingham County children. Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County is a monthly book gifting program that mails free, age-appropriate books personalized with the child’s name directly to the child’s home. Children who have not reached their fifth birthday and who are residents of Harrisonburg and Rockingham County are eligible regardless of income.

Join us in this effort to increase literacy development and excitement about reading by becoming a donor or sponsor of this community-supported and research-driven program!

The Dollywood Foundation covers program overhead, providing the enrollment database and coordinating the book selection, procurement, and mailing processes.

The Community Foundation covers the cost of wholesale books and shipping. The shipment cost is approximately $2.20 per book, per month ($26.40 per child, per year). It only costs $26.40 to support a child’s participation in the program for a year or $132 to support a child from birth to age 5.
