Patsy's House Pinwheel Campaign - Newschannel 6 Now | Wichita Falls, TX

Patsy's House Pinwheel Campaign

This year marks the fifth Annual Pinwheels for Patsy's House campaign.  Each year during Child Abuse Awareness month, we place pinwheels at Patterson Honda, each pinwheel represents one case of child abuse investigated in Wichita County.  This year that number is 1,705.  Patsy's House hopes the beautiful, but sad vision of so many pinwheels blowing in the wind will give people a visual to understand the sheer number of children hurting in our community.   During the month of April each gift of $20 takes down one pinwheel.  Their goal is to symbolically end child abuse one pinwheel at a time. 

People can remove a pinwheel online or over the phone by calling (940) 322-8890.  You can also go to the Patterson Honda or Patsy's House.
