“No child or family should have to live in fear and cope with abuse,” said Matt Bentke, Bluebonnet’s general manager. “We are proud to be part of the effort that is raising awareness of child abuse and helping children and families who are in tragic situations.”

Bluebonnet’s member service centers in Bastrop, Brenham, Giddings, Lockhart, and Manor will be illuminated with blue light at night, blue ribbon decals will be affixed to Bluebonnet's crew vehicles, and key community events and resources will be shared on our social media channels throughout April.
