UPMC supports and provides health care for all conditions, illnesses, and medical needs. All health observances are important. Although we cannot recognize all of them through the UPMC colors, we work to represent as many as possible through the chosen color.
Why Red in February?
For the month of February, UPMC has turned our sign at U.S. Steel Tower red in honor of American Heart Month.
We would also like to recognize:
- Sepsis Survivor Week — Feb. 8 to 14 (red)
- International Prenatal Infection Prevention Month (pink and blue)
- Low Vision Awareness Month (yellow)
- National Cancer Prevention Month (lavender)
- Rare Disease Awareness Month (zebra)
