Creating a Community of Compassion with Awareness Pins, Ribbons and Wristbands

Creating a community of love and support is crucial to our mission of making a positive impact on the lives of others. We believe that all people deserve a voice in their fight for medical, mental health, social, cancer, and animal awareness causes. We also believe that awareness and advocacy are important tools to fight for ourselves and those we love.

Wearing pins, ribbons, and wristbands shows compassion for friends or family members living with an illness. It also shows strength for a loved one in whose memory we're fighting. And, finally, it demonstrates awareness for the millions of people worldwide who are struggling with mental health and fighting for social causes. Our products represent a variety of colors and meanings to help call attention to the millions who struggle with invisible illnesses and the "spoonie" community.

Awareness Ribbons Colors Causes and Meanings | What Do the Colors Mean?

Personalized Cause's Awareness Causes, Colors and Meanings Guide is a helpful tool to refer to when wanting to learn about the specific meaning of a color. For example, many ask: What does green mean? Or how do I support my friend who is going through a kidney cancer diagnosis? Or I keep seeing an orange ribbon during October and I don't know what it means. This Awareness Ribbons Colors Causes and Meanings Reference Guide helps you understand.

Why Are There Different Colors for the Same Cause? Sometimes Colors Differ

In addition, and for clarification, sometimes different organizations for the same cause may choose to use two different colors. For example, orange previously represented lupus. Now, purple represents lupus. As organizations gain popularity, two "official" colors emerge. In these situations, either color is correct. Color choice is a personal preference.

Different countries may also use different colors for a cause. In this case, it is appropriate to choose the color for the country in which you raise awareness. On our site, we offer an alternative color or colors if there are two or more colors used to represent it. We also offer an alternative color if a color was previously used but has been discontinued.

We do the research for you! Colors, Causes and Meanings for Awareness Products

At Personalized Cause, we do the colors, causes, and meanings research for you. We stay on top of color choices and current trends in awareness colors. This Awareness Ribbons Colors Causes and Meanings | Reference Guide is updated regularly, so check back often.

Please note that not all our fabric ribbons and wristbands have corresponding products to our ribbon pins. While we do our very best to allow advocates to move between products, some just are not available. When this happens, and the cause hits close to home, an enamel awareness ribbon pin is typically the best choice.
