Bluebonnet buildings, vehicles and employees go pink in October to support the fight against breast cancer

For the 13th consecutive year, Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative's buildings, vehicles and employees will be illuminated in pink during October to raise awareness of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Throughout October, Bluebonnet's member service centers in Bastrop, Brenham, Giddings, Lockhart and Manor will glow pink at night. Bluebonnet field crews will wear pink hard hats and service trucks will display pink ribbon decals.

Members can visit Bluebonnet's member service centers to receive a pink ribbon pin.

“Bluebonnet is proud to be one of the many organizations across Central Texas that participate in raising awareness every October,” said Matt Bentke, Bluebonnet’s general manager. “We encourage everyone to learn more about early detection, preventive measures, and signs and symptoms of breast cancer. It could make the difference in your life, or the life of someone you love.”
