Rotary’s Commitment

The Broomfield Rotary Charitable Foundation has already invested more than $20,000 to launch and sustain the Imagination Library.

With your help, we can build on this foundation and ensure that every child under the age of five in Broomfield has the chance to build their own library — one book at a time.

Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library
This program delivers a high-quality, age-appropriate book each month to children from birth to age 5 — at no cost to the family.
With your support and State of Colorado matching, Broomfield Rotary ensures the program is fully funded locally, so families don’t pay to enroll.
How it Works:
• One free book mailed monthly to enrolled children
• No enrollment fees — all costs covered
• Managed locally by Broomfield Rotary in partnership with Broomfield Library

Why It Matters

Early access to books boosts language skills, literacy, school readiness, and lifelong learning. Yet, more than 60% of low-income homes have few or no books, putting many children behind before they even enter school.

To reach every child under age five in Broomfield, we aim to raise another $5000. Your gift matters:

• $25/month helps add 10 more children to the program each year

• Every child receives a monthly book and shared reading time with their caregiver
