Ribbons of all colors have become international symbols for diseases, disabilities, public health, or
other issues. Usually these ribbons are looped and pinned to a shirt or somewhere they’re easily
seen. By wearing a ribbon, regardless of the color, you are bringing awareness to a nationally
recognized cause. There are over twenty five ribbon colors that all symbolize different causes
or issues. The ribbon can be represented in more ways than one. For example, in sticker
form or photos of the ribbon can be just as effective as the physical ribbon.
