The Surprising Meanings Behind Different Colored Porch Lights in Michigan
There's a good chance you've noticed a neighbor with a front porch light on with a different color than you would typically see.

People often use different colored front porch lights to convey various messages or show support for specific causes.
Here are some common meanings behind colored porch lights you might see in Michigan:
Blue porch lights are frequently used to show support for law enforcement and first responders, as well as raise awareness for autism and Alopecia Areata.
Red porch lights can symbolize support for the American Heart Association during American Heart Month in February, or bring attention to heart health in general.
Back in the day, red lights were also associated with brothels, though this practice is now outdated.
Green porch lights are commonly used to honor veterans and active military personnel, especially around Veterans Day.
They can also represent St. Patrick's Day celebrations or Lyme disease awareness.
Purple porch lights raise awareness about domestic violence, particularly during Domestic Violence Awareness Month in October.
The color purple symbolizes that homes should be safe havens free from violence.
Orange porch lights gained significance in Delphi, Indiana, where they were used to show support for the families of two murdered teenage girls and advocate for justice.
Pink porch lights are primarily associated with breast cancer awareness, especially prevalent during Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October.
I love this idea because it's a fun and a simple way to show support for a cause that's special to you.
It could also lead to someone asking about the light that gives you a chance to tell them about the special cause.
