Investing in our staff means investing in our residents. Every new skill learned, every refresher completed and every conversation shared helps us become stronger as a team and better equipped to fulfill our mission.

Happy Dolly Day (9/25)! 🩷

Today we honor Dolly Parton’s heart for children—the books she put in little hands and the belief that every child deserves a chance to grow and dream.

That same spirit lives at The Learning Tree.
In honor of Dolly, would you make a gift? Your donation helps provide individualized education, behavioral supports, and residential/clinical care so children with developmental disabilities and autism can thrive.

At The Learning Tree, our hearts are heavy today as we join the world in mourning the loss of Dolly Parton.

Dolly’s extraordinary life was defined not only by her music and larger-than-life spirit, but by her deep, enduring commitment to children across America. Through her Imagination Library and countless acts of generosity, she placed books into the hands of millions of young readers and helped open doors of opportunity for families who needed it most, including children and families of The Learning Tree programs.

Her legacy of kindness, literacy, and unconditional support for kids will continue to inspire our work every day. We are grateful for the light she shared so freely.

Rest in peace, Dolly. Your love for children will never be forgotten. ❤️

Today, we celebrate the incredible work nonprofits do every day to strengthen communities, create opportunities and make a difference in the lives of others.

At The Learning Tree, our mission is more than the services we provide. It’s about helping children and adults with developmental disabilities reach their fullest potential while creating a place where they are supported, encouraged and valued.

None of this would be possible without our dedicated staff, community partners, donors, volunteers and supporters who believe in our mission and continue to stand beside us.

On National Nonprofit Day, we are especially grateful for everyone who helps us continue Growing Together.
