"Making a statement via lapel pin is still very much in vogue.

Mark Ruffalo and a few others donned waterdrop-shaped blue lapel pins to represent efforts to fight for clean water in the face of modern-day energy extraction techniques, which can contaminate nearby water supplies. (The controversy over what's known as "fracking" for natural gas was the subject of the nommed feature docu "Gasland.")

Ruffalo recently co-founded Waterdefense.org with other activists, and said he was motivated "because I live smack dab in the middle of gasland in upstate New York." He found himself "mortified by the conditions people are living in with contaminated wells, and they can't drink water out of their faucets." " - Variety -

Custom pins are a fantastic way to spread the word and raise awareness. They can be personalized with any message that you would like and since they have a lot of exposure everybody will see your message or will know about your crusade.

Most likely, awareness ribbon pins are the most popular ones but actually any cause can be promoted through custom lapel pins.

We congratulate Mark Ruffalo's initiative. Besides his support to the cause, he demonstrated his commitment by wearing the pin in such important event as the Oscars.

Fri, 18 Feb 2011 11:23:00 -0800 Memorial Pins To Honor Police Officers http://siennapacific.posterous.com/memorial-pins-to-honor-police-officers http://siennapacific.posterous.com/memorial-pins-to-honor-police-officers

Memorial pins are often used to honor someone or to remember a tragic event.

Memories can give some console during times of mourning and Lapel Pins can help to remind and to tribute our loved ones.

The following history is a good example how Custom Made Lapel Pins can help not only to honor a hero but to fundraise for a good cause at the same time.

It's about a police officer in Ontario who was killed in the line of duty. A local businessman decided to purchase Commemorative Lapel Pins for the members of the police service and also sell them to set up a special trust for the family of the fallen officer.

"I had the opportunity to view the funeral of Sgt. Russell, and quite frankly I was taken back by the whole event," said Brown, managing partner of Bridgeview Marina and operator of Sarnia Bay Marina. "I wanted to do something to support the family, and at the same time, honour the police officers in our community." - The Observer -

Wed, 12 Jan 2011 11:45:00 -0800 Highway Angel Lapel Pins for Team Drivers http://siennapacific.posterous.com/highway-angel-lapel-pins-for-team-drivers http://siennapacific.posterous.com/highway-angel-lapel-pins-for-team-drivers

Two drivers who helped at the scene of a serious accident in Ontario (Canada) were recognized by the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA).

This is an excerpt from the article, where a nurse who witness the scene commented about the drivers amazing intervention.


"The nurse later sent a complimentary e-mail to N. Yanke Transfer praising Rheault and Woodman for their valuable assistance. “Please tell your men to be proud of their excellent emergency response to this stranger,” she wrote. “I think if your men had not been as responsive and diligent as they were, then the driver more than likely may not have even made it to the hospital. I believe we kept him alive long enough to have … his family around him to comfort him and say their last goodbyes.” " - Overdrive Online -


Both drivers were rewarded with Highway Angel Lapel Pins, certificates and clothing patches.

We applaud TCA's initiative of distinguishing these men. As in other opportunities, Lapel Pins were given to show appreciation and admiration for someone.

Custom Pins can serve different purposes. They can be a promotional tool for a company or they can be used to recognize an employee who had a good performance or like in this case to distinguish someone for an outstanding response to an emergency.

If you're planning to implement a recognition program for your employees or for valuable citizens in your community, we would like to recommend our Pewter Pins. They have an elegant rich finish that provide exquisite detail and a high perceived value.
