"We are hopeful that Governor Braun and the Indiana Legislature will continue this vital investment by restoring the state's funding match for local Imagination Library programs. The beauty of the Imagination Library is that it unites us all - regardless of politics - because every child deserves the chance to dream big and succeed."
"Over the past two years, the state's funding has helped the program deliver free books to more than 125,000 Indiana children each month. Together, we've helped nurture a love of reading, given families precious moments of joy, and built a foundation for lifelong learning."
Dolly Parton is advocating for the restoration of funding for her Imagination Library program in Indiana, which has been cut from the proposed state budget. The program, which provides free, age-appropriate books to children under five, has relied on state funding for half of its budget. A recent statement from Parton's representative emphasized the importance of the program in fostering a love of reading among children and highlighted its impact on over 125,000 Indiana children each month.
