We’ve partnered with Dolly Parton's Imagination Library and the DC Public Library Foundation to give the gift of reading to the youth of Washington, DC.
For every room our guests directly reserve with us, The Jefferson sponsors the purchase of a children’s book for the DC Public Library’s Books from Birth program. This beloved program, founded by Dolly Parton sends all enrolled DC children one Imagination Library book to keep each month from birth until they turn five.
We are proud to partner with two empowering organizations that help parents and caregivers share the love of reading with their children, creating the building blocks for good reading habits before children enter school. Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library is an international gifting program that mails free, high-quality books to children from birth to school. Started in 1995 and inspired by her father’s inability to read and write, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library reaches over one million children across the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia. DC Public Library’s Books from Birth initiative empowers parents and caregivers to start reading with their children from a young age, the best thing to put kids on a path to success. By reading books, children pick up new words, have fun while they learn, and develop skills they will need later in school.
