Please refer to the original post to learn more about how you can both honor Dolly Parton's legacy and help keep books in the hands of our community's children.

As we celebrate this life well-lived, we at the Winding Rivers Library System cannot thank Dolly enough for all she's done to put books into the hands of young children.
We are thrilled to announce that beginning on January 4, 2027, every child ages 0-5 who lives in the seven counties of the Winding Rivers Library System will be eligible to get one age-appropriate book mailed to their home each month.
Help us sustain this program for years to come. Any donation helps us honor Dolly’s legacy while giving children in our community the gift of reading.
Your gift is tax-deductible through our 501(c)(3), the Friends of the Winding Rivers Library System, EIN 41-2921900.
