AIDS Awareness Ribbon

AIDS Awareness Ribbon by Auntie P.
The Matchbox Macro Collection.

I collected 63 tiny objects and put them all in a matchbox. This is one of them.

World AIDS Day is December 1st each year and many people wear the Red Ribbon to show support, though many wear one all year round. It was the first ribbon representing a cause and many have followed, perhaps the most well known being the pink ribbon for Breast Cancer Awareness. Rubber wristbands seem to be the norm nowadays.

I forgot my red ribbon this year (I had my silver aids bracelet on though, so I wasn't entirely remiss)

I have added this to the AIDS photo library of AVERT, an international AIDS charity, under the terms of the Creative Commons licence. Although we have several other AIDS ribbon photos, yours makes a good addition due to its very high quality.
