The Power of Periwinkle: Lighting the Way for Stomach Cancer Awareness
The Leaning Tower of Pisa lights up in Periwinkle Blue in support of The Power of Periwinkle!
Periwinkle is the official color of stomach cancer awareness—symbolizing hope, strength, and solidarity.
Every year on November 30th, we partner with communities, advocates and supports across the world to shine a light on this often overlooked disease by illuminating landmarks in periwinkle.
In 2024, over 100 iconic sites joined us in raising awareness, from city halls to stadiums. You might even see a landmark you recognize!
If you would like your landmark to light up please contact us at events@mygutfeeling.ca.
