A New Guide to Awareness Ribbons

Awareness ribbons are a popular way to bring attention to chronic illness, disease, and social problems. These ribbons mean a lot to so many people, but they’ve become so popular that the average person isn’t likely to identify what each color and pattern symbolizes. The team at Wizard Pins is here to help with a full-color guide to the many ribbons and what they mean.

In this engaging graphic, the larger the ribbon, the more popular the color. It’s clear from one look that purple is the most common awareness ribbon color. There are about 50 different meanings behind the color purple. How do we differentiate when each color has so many meanings? Each month is dedicated to a different cause. The team listed the monthly guide for each color as well. This infographic is a must if you want to recognize awareness ribbons.
