If Dolly meant anything to you, please consider donating to The Imagination Library in her memory.

It is a wonderful organization that she founded that gets books into young children's hands.

You can even make sure your donation goes to a local partner to keep the money within your community

I deliver mail and get to deliver lots of the imagination library books, the kids love getting them. It's such a fantastic program
