Colors, Causes and Meanings of Awareness Ribbons

Personalized Cause's Awareness Causes, Colors and Meanings Guide is a helpful tool to refer to when wanting to learn the specific meaning of a color. For example, many ask: What does the color green mean? Or, how do I support my friend who is going through a diagnosis?

In addition, different organizations for the same cause may choose to use different colors. For example, orange previously represented lupus. Now, lupus is represented by purple. As organizations gain popularity, two "official" colors emerge. In these situations, either color is correct and 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 if there are two colors, or if a color were previously used.

At Personalized Cause, we do the research for you. We stay on top of color choices and colors. This color and cause guide is updated regularly.
