Warrick Literacy & Education Connections has a big fundraising event coming up for the Dolly Parton Imagination Library, and it includes some awesome auction items you just might want to bid on!
Warrick Literacy & Educational Connections partners with the Dollywood Foundation and gifts books every month to preschool-age children living in Warrick County. The Dollywood Foundation publishes and mails the books. WLEC registers children and raises the money needed to buy the books. It’s truly a wonderful program that my daughter is enrolled in. Seeing her light up when “Aunt Dolly” sends her a new book for us to read each month is so special. My daughter has really learned a lot thanks to these books. Reading at a young age for children has so many benefits, including:
- Grows the imagination and creativity
- Builds close relationships
- Develops problem-solving skills
- Builds a child’s vocabulary
- Children are ready to read and think

So this is really an incredible and important program that children can be a part of that’s absolutely free. However, in order to keep offering these free books to kids across the county, WLEC must do a little fundraising.
