Beyond Colors: The Powerful Symbolism of Purple for Lupus Awareness
At Crinkles and Crackles, our commitment goes beyond crafting delightful cookies – it extends to fostering awareness and support for those affected by autoimmune diseases. In our journey to raise awareness, our beloved logo wears a vibrant shade of purple, symbolizing our solidarity with individuals battling Lupus.
What is Lupus?
Lupus, a chronic autoimmune disease, affects millions worldwide, with a significant impact on women. The immune system, responsible for protecting the body from invaders, mistakenly attacks healthy tissues, leading to inflammation and damage in various organs. This complex condition presents itself in a myriad of ways, making diagnosis and management challenging.
Why Purple?
Purple isn't just a color for us; it's a symbol of hope, strength, and unity for the Lupus community. By incorporating purple into our logo, we aim to shed light on the challenges faced by individuals with Lupus and demonstrate our unwavering support for their journey.
