UPMC proudly recognizes the days, weeks, and months that raise awareness for many key health topics. Every month, we will feature National Health Observances to encourage education and honor those affected and the loved ones who support them.
Why White in December?
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.
For the month of December, UPMC has turned our sign at U.S. Steel Tower white to signify the season of peace and joy surrounding many holiday celebrations.
We would also like to recognize:
- World HIV/AIDS Day — Dec. 1 (red).
- National Influenza Awareness Week — Dec. 2 to 6.
