Whatever you like or support, there is a bracelet for everything. It seems to have started with Lance Armstrong's "Live
Strong" yellow bracelet. This silicone piece of jewelry was a great contribution to cancer research and gave people a way to support a cause that definitely needed it. It was an inexpensive way for people to be heard without saying a word. The American Cancer Society now has 6
colored bracelets for causes. Orange is for anti-tobacco. Dark blue represents colon cancer awareness. Purple is relay for life. Pink contributes to breast cancer research. White is worn in support of cancer survivors. Lime green, being the final color they have, promotes early detection
of cancer in the Latin community. There is a literally a different color bracelet for every cause in the world.
Not all bracelets are for health concerns. There are camouflage bracelets worn to support our troops along with the patriotic red, white, and blue ones. Who hasn't heard of the What Would Jesus Do? Or WWJD? bracelets? These were of extreme popularity and are still worn today. An
organization called the ONE campaign has a white bracelet with a simple ONE engraved upon it. It stands for more than just a simple message. They are working to end global AIDS as well as poverty. Anti fur and vegan bracelets can also be bought to lend your support to animals. These
pieces of jewelry are beautifully decorated with various gemstones. Lastly, sports teams have jumped on the bracelet bandwagon too. Support your favorite team by wearing their team colors upon your wrist. A black and white bracelet is now available to stop racism in football.
Meditation bracelets, inspired by Buddhism, are worn for a variety of reasons. They are called power beads and help to heal to heal you on the inside and out. Magnetic hematite bracelets give relief to minor aches and pains. They can also help with depression. Ivory stone bracelets
help to raise awareness and encourage patience. Beaded bracelets with amethyst gemstones strengthen intelligence and brain power.
With all these choices, how can you let your wrist be bare? A friendship bracelet can be equally as important to you as a breast cancer one is to someone else. Bracelets can be worn for fun or fashion. Find what you like or would like to support and go with that piece of jewelry.
