The color for colon cancer awareness is dark blue. While there are many different awareness ribbons representing different types of cancers, the dark blue ribbon is specifically associated with colon cancer. Ribbons of all hues are used to represent different types of cancers, and they can be combined to represent multiple cancers. Lavender is sometimes used to recognize cancer as a whole. The diverse colors of awareness ribbons unite us in a shared pursuit: to raise awareness, promote early detection, and support the patients and survivors in our lives.
