Bluegrass Bayou Catering: Serving More Than Meals at Sunrise Children’s Services

November 22, 2024

At Sunrise Children’s Services, we are continually blessed by the generosity of our community. One such shining example is Bluegrass Bayou Catering of Lexington, led by owner Trevor Johnson and his wife, Shanna, who regularly donate meals to the children and staff at our facilities. Their dedication goes beyond just providing food—it’s about giving back in a deeply personal way.

“When we pull up with the food, you should see the kids’ faces,” Trevor shared. “They are so excited. It makes it all worth it.”

For Trevor, his commitment to Sunrise is rooted in his own journey. Having faced a difficult past, he understands the importance of support, love, and second chances. His personal experiences have driven him to give back to those who need it most, ensuring that the children at Sunrise not only receive delicious, home-cooked meals but also a message of hope.

“Bayou Bluegrass Catering has consistently chosen to serve with their time, talents, treasure, and testimony, selflessly supporting our children across the state. They have inspired all of us to think of more ways we can impact the world around us. I personally am so thankful for their willing and gracious hearts.” Reuben Watson, Central Kentucky Advancement Director at Sunrise Children’s Services

Trevor adds, “My faith in Christ is the real reason I do all this. Because of what He’s done in my life, He has transformed my heart to love and want to serve others. Every time I get the chance to help someone, I do it with gratitude, knowing how blessed I am to be able to make a difference.”

Every meal from Bluegrass Bayou is filled with warmth, care, and the belief that every child deserves to feel valued. Trevor and Shanna’s story is a testament to the power of transformation and the impact one family can have on the lives of many. We are beyond grateful for their continued support and the joy they bring to our Sunrise family.

Thank you, Trevor, Shanna, and Bluegrass Bayou Catering, for making a difference. One meal at a time.
