Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library of East Rochester mails books to children from birth to five years old who live in the 14445 zip-code or who live in the East Rochester School District, but outside the 14445 zip-code.
“Joshua loves the books and we read them at dinner every night.” Lindsey (mother)

Special Note: Last month the United Way took over management of the Rochester Imagination Library that serves children living in the City of Rochester. It has plans to expand coverage to all of Monroe County in the future. This will not affect the Imagination Library of East Rochester, which is the currently the only Imagination Library in Monroe County, outside the City of Rochester. The Imagination Library of East Rochester is not affiliated with the United Way. We are an independent nonprofit organization serving children and families that live in the East Rochester School District. Recent radio and TV ads run by the United Way may have been somewhat confusing.
Thank You To The Businesses And Organizations That Have Provided Financial Support

If you would like to help support our efforts with a donation, please go to the donation page on this website for details. Donations of any amount are valued and make a difference.

These orgnizations help us promote the Imagination Library of East Rochester in the community. Spreading the word so parents find out about it and can then register their children to receive free books. If your organization would like to help us, please contact Michael for details.
