Child Abuse Prevention Month

Join DCAC this April by helping us plant hope across Dallas County! Hosting a pinwheel garden is a simple and meaningful way to raise awareness for child abuse prevention and show your support for the children and families we serve.

Here’s how it works:

• Tell us how many garden locations you’re willing to host, along with each address and a contact person.

• During the last week of March, DCAC volunteers will deliver signs and 35 oversized pinwheels (approximately 18 inches high) and “plant” your garden for you. Prefer to do it yourself? We’ll drop off the supplies instead!

• During the first full week of May, our team will return to remove the garden—unless you’d like to keep your pinwheels to display longer.

Each garden includes a mission overview and recognition sign on an H-stake frame, similar to a standard yard sign. Together, these bright blue pinwheels help spark conversation and inspire action to protect every child.

Partner with DCAC this April to shine a light of hope across Dallas County. As a Pinwheel Garden Sponsor, your support helps plant thousands of pinwheels that raise awareness for child abuse prevention and celebrate the strength of our community’s children and families.

Sponsorships include:

• Logo recognition on signage displayed at Pinwheel Garden locations throughout Dallas County.

• Mention in all press-related opportunities surrounding the Pinwheel Garden initiative.

• Five “Pinwheels of Hope” personal yard signs to share with your employees or place at your office.

• Limited number of sponsorships available—reserve yours early to make the greatest impact.

Your sponsorship helps spread our mission of hope and healing—one pinwheel at a time.

On April 8, six Raising Cane’s locations across Dallas County will show their BLUE in support of Dallas Children’s Advocacy Center! Grab dinner for you and your family between 4–9 p.m. and help spread the word to friends, colleagues, and neighbors. Be sure to share our social posts, too!

When placing your order, you must mention DCAC or the fundraiser—in person or in the drive-thru—to ensure that your purchase counts toward the event total.

These six locations will donate a portion of that evening’s proceeds to DCAC to support our mission of improving the lives of abused children in Dallas County:

• Coit & Campbell

• Greenville & Lovers

• 75 & Forest Lane

• NW HWY & I-35

• Mockingbird & Maple

• Gaston & Garland

Invite your church or place of worship to stand with children by dedicating a service to prayer, learning, and action around child abuse prevention—on National Blue Sunday or any date that best fits your tradition’s calendar. DCAC will provide simple talking points, awareness materials, and next steps so your congregation can lift up children, honor those who protect them, and help create a safer community for every child in Dallas County.
