Also, I know that AIDS Awareness Day is December 1st. So, a lot of people sport their ribbons that day, too.
I have also noticed that a lot of people wear there Pink ribbons for Breast Cancer Awareness/Support around/on Mother's Day too.

Red Ribbon Week usually occurs in the last week of October each year.
For the full month of October, breast cancer is recognized by survivors, family and friends of survivors and/or victims of the disease by wearing a pink ribbon.

I could desire to confess i could discover this somewhat uncomfortable if I have been a targeted visitor (do no longer bash my sensitivity--i'm a breast maximum cancers survivor, my mom died from it). i think of a marriage could desire to be a thoroughly happy ocassion, celebrating a union and a destiny. maximum cancers isn't happy, and would not propose a protracted destiny. i'm high quality with the assumption of donating money to any sturdy reason for any reason, yet i think of a maximum cancers subject is an uncomfortable one for a marriage. Do the donation in decision to a choose, and have a card at each and each place putting explaining that. yet end there.

1st December is the world's Aids day.
But why wear it only then. I have one attached to my purse and I show people that every day is good enough to protest against diseases such as Aids.
Plus get informed on how you can help, volunteering or not.
You'll feel good with yourself and people will be thankful.
