Each April, bright blue pinwheels begin popping up across campuses and communities as a visible symbol of hope during Child Abuse Prevention Month. Through the Pinwheels for Prevention® campaign led by Prevent Child Abuse America, pinwheels represent the joyful, carefree childhood every child deserves and the shared commitment to building strong families and safe communities. This year, Kappa Delta chapters found ways to bring this symbol to life — from colorful campus displays to meaningful community installations. Here are 10 ways Kappa Delta chapters showcased pinwheels and helped spread awareness throughout Child Abuse Prevention Month.
