The colors of cancer
Cancer effects everyone in some way or another, which is why spreading cancer awareness is so important to us all. One way to spread cancer awareness is to promote the different colors of cancer. Whether you yourself have cancer and are undergoing treatment or are a cancer survivor or just know someone with cancer, it is a serious problem we may all have to face one day in some form or another. There is a large variety of different types of cancers and over time most forms of cancer have been designated a color to represent it. Below is a list of colors and which cancers they represent.
