Is there an official shade of pink for the breast cancer awareness ribbon?


I have a client asking me if there is an official shade of pink for the breast cancer awareness ribbon. Maybe a single color code that the breast cancer societies use? Does anyone know? So far I haven't found anything online.

I volunteer for the ACS and to my knowledge there isn't an "official" shade of pink used for ribbons. A moderate shade of pink is more typical, but it does not really matter; the most important thing is to raise awareness.

I put a link under the "sources" to bc programs offered by the ACS...it shows the ribbon color we use.

Just confirmed with the Komen Foundation that there is no "official" pantone color for Awareness pink. Report Abuse
