Dolly Parton’s Dollywood Foundation Makes $4.5 Million Investment in Nashville Public Library Early Literacy Program


Dolly Parton's Dollywood Foundation is teaming with the Nashville Public Library to help kickstart an early reading program for children.

A new app will also offer on-demand digital early literacy training for parents and teachers, while Vanderbilt University’s Prenatal to 3 Policy Impact Center will study the results, creating an actionable, measurable and replicable model. Imagination Library programs exist in all 50 states and 5 countries around the world, mailing over 3 million books in the hands of children each month. Dolly Parton is a transformational figure in worlds of philanthropy and literacy, and we are thrilled to partner with her and excited about the impact this promises to have on our city.”
