Congratulations to Paula and Hunter Beaton of Boerne, Texas. They’re the Second Place winner of our third annual #WhoPowersYou contest!
When Hunter was a child, he was astonished to see his new foster siblings coming home with their belongings in a trash bag. So he did something about it. At 15 years old, Hunter began a program called “Day 1 Bags” that filled 100 duffel bags with essential items for foster kids. Hunter’s vision has since grown into a statewide program with national partnerships that has collected and distributed more than 24,000 bags to children across Texas. Hunter’s mom, Paula, helps manage the program.
Thank you, Hunter and Paula, for your contribution and your commitment to kids in your community. All of us at Touchstone Energy Cooperatives are inspired by your service.
