Cada dia tem uma cor, um cheiro. Domingo é dia do açafrão. Dia 22 de outubro é o dia Mundial do Açafrão.
O Dia do Açafrão aumenta a conscientização sobre a doação de órgãos; e exorta a se registrar para doação. Não há necessidade de arrecadar fundos. Basta colocar um pedaço de açafrão (laranja) em sua roupa e começar a conversar sobre a doação de órgãos.
Domingo é o dia do Aáfrão desde Salomão. Na Canção de Salomão” ele diz: [...] nardo e açafrão, cana-de-açúcar e canela.
