Backup Ribbons

The Backup Ribbon Project is a fan-run project to allow fans to back up each other at science fiction conventions and other geek gatherings. We distribute bright purple ribbons that say BACKUP in large friendly letters.

If you take a ribbon and wear it at a con or other geek gathering, you are agreeing that if you see a fellow fan being harassed, you will find a way to help.

We do not judge. We do not make exceptions. We got your back.

Help us cover the expense of ribbons, cards, stickers, and postage!
