Pinwheel Project
Becks' Martial Arts is committed to our Northern Colorado Community. Working closely with children, one of our many core values is keeping them safe.
April is Child Abuse Prevention Month, and Becks' is Partnering with Realities for Children for the month of April.
April is Child Abuse Prevention Month, a month dedicated to helping raise awareness around child abuse and neglect. The blue pinwheel is the national symbol for Child Abuse Prevention. During April, the pinwheels planted in our community symbolize the happy, healthy childhoods all children deserve.
Realities For Children
Realities For Children is a local nonprofit that provides for the emergency and ongoing support needs of children in Northern Colorado who have been abused, neglected, or are at risk. The vision of Realities For Children is to educate, engage and inspire local businesses, youth agencies, and the community to support and improve the lives of Northern Colorado children - so that no child in need is forgotten.
How You Can Help
