Baby Blue Wristbands - (Typically represents prostate cancer) Although there are several cell types in the prostate, nearly all prostate cancers start in the gland cells. This kind of cancer is known as adenocarcinoma (add-uh-no-car-suh-NO-muh). The rest of this information refers only to prostate adenocarcinoma. Most of the time, prostate cancer grows slowly. Autopsy studies show that many older men (and even younger men) who died of other diseases also had prostate cancer that never caused a problem during their lives. These studies showed that 7 or 8 out of 10 men had prostate cancer by age 80. But neither they nor their doctors even knew they had it.

Black Wristbands - (Typically represents melanoma cancer) Melanoma is a cancer that begins in the melanocytes. Because most of these cells still make melanin, melanoma tumors are often brown or black. But this is not always the case, as melanomas can also have no color. Melanoma most often appears on the trunk of fair-skinned men and on the lower legs of fair-skinned women, but it can appear other places, too. While having dark skin lowers the risk of melanoma, it does not mean that a person with dark skin will never develop melanoma. Melanoma is almost always curable in its early stages. But it is likely to spread to other parts of the body. Melanoma is much less common than basal cell and squamous cell skin cancers, but it is far more serious.

Despite its rarity and the major advances in treatment and supportive care, cancer is still the leading cause of death from disease in children younger than 15 years old.

Gray Wristbands - (Typically represents brain cancer) Metastatic tumors to the brain are more common than primary brain tumors. Unlike other cancers, tumors arising within the brain or spinal cord rarely metastasize to distant organs. They cause damage because they spread locally and destroy normal brain tissue in the place where they arise. This document is only about primary brain and spinal cord tumors, not those that have spread from elsewhere in the body. With a few exceptions, tumors of the brain or spinal cord are never benign (noncancerous). Unless it is possible to completely remove brain or spinal cord tumors, they will continue to grow and eventually (sometimes after many years) lead to death.

CML can also change into a fast-growing, acute leukemia that invades almost any organ in the body. Leukemia is different from other types of cancer that start in organs such as the lungs, colon, or breast and then spread to the bone marrow. Cancers that start elsewhere and then spread to the bone marrow are not leukemia.

Maroon Wristbands - (Typically represents multiple myeloma cancer) Multiple myeloma is a type of cancer formed by cancerous plasma cells in the blood. Normal plasma cells are an important part of the body’s immune system. The immune system is made up of several types of cells that work together to fight infections. Lymph cells (called “lymphocytes”) are the main type of cell in the immune system. There are 2 types of lymph cells: T cells and B cells. When B cells respond to an infection, they change into plasma cells. The plasma cells are mainly in the bone marrow—the soft, inner part of some bones. The plasma cells make proteins called antibodies that attack and help kill the germs. When plasma cells grow out of control, they can form a tumor, usually in the bone marrow. This type of tumor is called a myeloma, and if there are many of them they are called multiple myeloma. Charity breakdown - Cost per wristband for Cook's Crew is .76 cents per bracelet.

All other types of lymphoma are called non-Hodgkin lymphomas. The cells of these 2 types of cancer look different under a microscope.

The rest begin in the trunk (15% to 20%), head and neck area (8% to 10%), internal organs, or the retroperitoneum (15%) (the back of the abdominal cavity). Sarcoma is the term used for cancers of these tissues. The pancreas is an organ found behind the stomach. It is shaped a little bit like a fish. It is about 6 inches long and less than 2 inches wide. It extends across the belly (abdomen). The pancreas contains 2 different kinds of glands. The exocrine glands make pancreatic "juice" that has enzymes which break down fats and proteins in foods so the body can use them. Most of the cells in the pancreas are part of the exocrine system. A smaller number of cells in the pancreas are endocrine cells. These cells are arranged in clusters called islets. They make hormones (such as insulin) that help balance the amount of sugar in the blood. Charity breakdown - Cost per wristband for Cook's Crew is .76 cents per bracelet.
