Sparking childhood literacy in Yavapai County
ILPA is a local affiliate of Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, serving families living in Yavapai County, Arizona.
Provides books at no cost to children from the age of 0-5 by mailing a book to their home every month.
Families with children between the ages of 0 and 5, residing in Yavapai County, AZ.
Years of research and dozens of studies point to the same thing: reading to children from the time they are born is critical to literacy development and academic success. Research shows that access to high quality children’s literature has a tremendous impact on children’s early literacy development, which in turn impacts their overall school success in subsequent years. The books from Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library encourage parent involvement and create a home library to help engage parents and children in reading together.
Imagination Library of the Prescott Area would like to thank all of our wonderful participants, donors, and local businesses who made our Spring Into Reading campaign a wonderful success! Thanks to all of you we are going to be able to mail 1,165 more books to kids 0-5 in Yavapai County!
We had a wonderful celebration on March 7th on World Book Day at The County Seat in Prescott. Thanks to everyone who came and made this event such a fun and literary evening.
Support from people like you make all the difference! It costs $25 to mail books to one child for a year. Consider supporting ILPA as an individual or business today.
