November is national CRPS/RSD awareness month, and what better way to raise awareness than by participating in the Color The World Orange annual event on November 7th.
Color The World Orange, is an annual event held the first Monday in November to spread awareness of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), also known as Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD), and is less than two weeks away, but there is still time to get involved!
Raising awareness is easy and FREE – The easiest way to participate is to wear orange and post a picture to social media with the hashtag: #CRPSORANGEDAY.
However, the team at Color The World Orange has also put together suggestions and a collection of materials to help you raise awareness – all offered for free on their website (and below).
Founded in 2014 to bring global attention to CRPS/RSD, Color The World Orange does not receive any money from its fundraisers, and in the last two years has helped supporters raise more than $11,650 for the national non-profit RSDSA, to be used for research.
More information directly from the Color The World Orange Team:
Encourage friends and family to get involved and to wear orange as well – it can be something as small as an orange bracelet or an orange t-shirt, or as elaborate as one supporter who in 2014 wore orange head to toe, literally!
