Dolly Parton's Imagination Library

Batting For A Better Tomorrow

Day of Caring

Since 1994, local businesses have joined hands and hearts for what is now one of the largest community service project days in the area! Each year, hundreds of volunteers complete service projects to make a difference in the lives of local citizens and in the heart of each volunteer.

Super Tax Day

In partnership with the IRS, we are offering free tax filing services this tax season through the IRS-sponsored Volunteer Income Tax Program (VITA). IRS certified volunteers work with eligible taxpayers to assist with the preparation of basic tax returns and will electronically file those returns once they have been reviewed.

Each year, Stuff the Bus draws parents, teachers, students, and residents across Northeast Arkansas together for the common goal of helping our students succeed in school.
