No Joke—Library Giving Day is Here!

Library Giving Day is here, and no, this isn’t an April Fools’ prank!

Today, we invite you to show your library love by helping us bring the joy of books to children in our community.

Through Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, kids from birth to age five receive a free book in the mail each month—building early literacy skills and a lifelong love of reading.

How You Can Help:
✅ Donate: Every $25 sponsors a child’s books for a full year. Online or by check
✅ Spread the Word: Tell parents in 62040 about this amazing free program!
✅ Sign Up: Know a child under 5? Register them today! www.smrld.org/dpil/

No tricks, just books! Your support today makes a lasting impact on young readers in our community.
