It was just the other day that I read about what a GREEN porch light means. As it turns out there are several different colors representing several different causes, and support of various groups or organizations.

Important: If you see a neighbor's porch light flashing, it could mean your neighbor is in distress. If you see a porch light flickering it’s important for people to take note of this and report it when appropriate.  It may be more than a bad bulb or loose wire.

If you want to support a particular group, organization, or cause, a great way to show it is with a colored light bulb.
