Awareness Colors and Meanings
Here are some awareness colors that I use in bracelets to signify certain diseases and other societal concerns. Colors that are recognized as being associated with particular issues can help raise public awareness of those issues, which can lead to increased funding of related research and charitable organizations. If there is a specific color that is not listed, please list it when ordering in the "Comments" box. There is no additional cost.
