Run for Reading 5k

📚 Supporting Literacy in Palm Beach County

Dolly Parton's Imagination Library is an award-winning book gifting program for children ages 0-5. The Imagination Library mails each child enrolled a high-quality, age-appropriate book each month, at no cost to the family, from birth through their fifth birthday! The program works through The Dollywood Foundation, which provides key systems, and local community partners, who enroll families and pay the monthly cost of books. The NCT Foundation, started by PGA Tour professional Nicholas Thompson and his wife, is the local 501(c)(3) non-profit partner of the Imagination Library in Palm Beach County. Your participation in the Run for Reading 5k will provide Imagination Library books for local children in Palm Beach County!
