Most people don't know that the pink ribbon for breast cancer was originally a peach colored ribbon. According to legend, back in the early 1990s, a woman began making peach ribbons because 3 other women in her family had breast cancer. Her grassroots campaign caught the attention of some large media outlets. When they contacted her about using her peach ribbons she refused saying the large outlets were too commercial.
Then one of the companies still wanted to promote breast cancer awareness so they talked to their lawyers who told them to pick another color. They decided on pink because focus groups feel that pink is 'comforting, soothing, and healing'-which is the antithesis of breast cancer. Now pink ribbons, instead of peach ribbons, are the global symbol for breast cancer awareness.
