Keeping Dolly’s Legacy Alive in South Australia

A book a month. A love of reading for life.

United Way South Australia proudly delivers Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, helping SA children build a love of books, reading and learning from birth.

Every child enrolled receives a free, age-appropriate book delivered to their home every month from birth to age five — building their own library before they even start school.

Why It Matters

A child’s first five years matter.

Reading together helps build language, literacy, communication and school-readiness skills, while giving parents and carers a simple way to learn and connect with their child.

For families without easy access to books, Dolly’s Imagination Library can make a lasting difference.

Dolly’s Vision. Delivered Locally.

Since 2014, United Way SA has helped bring Dolly’s vision to South Australian families, delivering more than 85,000 books into children’s homes.
