By its very nature, the blue pinwheel brings to mind whimsy and childlike notions. In essence, it has come to serve as the physical embodiment, or reminder, of the great childhoods we want for all children.

April is Child Abuse Prevention Month, and at its core, Child Abuse Prevention Month is about more than just preventing child abuse and neglect. It’s about recognizing that every family has unique strengths and needs, and that there is no one-size-fits-all solution to building strong families. It’s about providing families with the support and resources they need to thrive.

At Illuminate Colorado, we are committed to supporting ALL families in Colorado and building a brighter childhood for EVERY child in our state. Your donation helps us strengthen families, communities and organizations to prevent child maltreatment not just in April, but throughout the entire year.
