January Awareness Ribbon Schedule
Awareness Ribbons are a great way to show your support for a cause that is important to you. The Satin Ribbon or Printed Ribbon can be easily cut to 3″ in length depending on the size decide to make, folded and pinned using a small gold safety pin. Here is a list of awareness ribbon colors and I realize that it is not a complete list. It has been a long search to find the causes and colors we have listed below. If you have a cause that is not listed, please contact us so we can add it and find the ribbon for you. If you are interested in purchasing ribbons for a Fund Raising event, please contact us with the information so we can help you find the ribbon and the quantity you need. You can have your cause printed on the ribbon that will help show your support even more and be a great conversation starter.
