Greg --
Imagine every child under age five in Washington having the opportunity to grow their own home library of high-quality books, igniting their love of reading and preparing them for success
upon entering kindergarten. This dream is a reality for more than 96,000 young children in our state, and you can play an important role in putting more books into the hands of our
state's earliest learners.
Imagination Library of Washington <http://www.imaginationlibrarywashington.org?e=0d5b1e6d89d6ff0398e7ec396194a7f2&utm_source=uwpnw&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=support_ilwa&n=1> —
a statewide program partner of Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, strives to send a new book every month to Washington children from birth to age five. Created in 1995 by renowned
entertainer and philanthropist Dolly Parton, the Imagination Library has a proven track record of promoting positive home literacy environments and increasing vital early literacy skills.
Early reading is critical for every child.
Since Dolly's special visit to Washington last month, we have rapidly experienced significant growth in the number of children signed up to receive their free monthly book - a 25% increase
across our state!
As the program surges in popularity and impacts an increasing number of children, more funds must be raised to keep the momentum.
It's our promise, along with our legislative and program partners, to make sure every child under five experiences the magic of books from Dolly Parton's Imagination Library. While we
are incredibly grateful for the $2 million secured during the last legislative session to fund 50% of the cost of books and mailing for all registered children, it simply is not enough
to support the increasing number of young children enrolling in the Imagination Library.
Washington’s earliest learners need your help! <https://www.imaginationlibrarywashington.org/donate?e=0d5b1e6d89d6ff0398e7ec396194a7f2&utm_source=uwpnw&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=support_ilwa&n=2>
The good news? A donation of just $30 guarantees monthly delivery of a carefully-selected book to a young child for an entire year. How many children can you and/or your business or
community organization sponsor?
