Have a Holly Dolly Christmas!

Give the Gift of Reading this Holiday Season

The Imagination Library of Will County invites you to sprinkle a little extra magic this holiday season by sponsoring a child to receive free books through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library. A simple gift of $16 supports a Will County child with a whole year of beautiful, high-quality books delivered right to their doorstep.

The “Have a Holly Dolly Christmas” fundraiser aims to help Will County children fall in love with reading through Dolly Parton’s celebrated free gift-giving program. Research has repeatedly demonstrated that a child receiving free books through the program has higher reading skills later in life and improved early educational outcomes. Please consider giving the sweet gift of reading this holiday season by sponsoring one child for $16 a year or even blessing several children at once at the levels below:

$16

sponsors one child

$80

sponsors five children

$160

sponsors ten children

$320

sponsors twenty children

The Imagination Library of Will County was started as a partnership between Will County Executive Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant and the Will County Center for Economic Development to fundraise for and implement the program in local communities. The program has already surpassed its 2025 goal for registrations, with over 5,100 children signed up to receive free books!
