On Wednesday, a tattoo benefit was held at the American Furniture Warehouse in Westminster in memory of the 10-year-old girl kidnapped and killed Oct. 5.

One-inch purple or green ribbons were tattooed for no set fee. All donations were given to the Jessica Ridgeway Foundation and the Ridgeway family. The purple ribbon represents Jessica's favorite color, and the green ribbon represents missing children.

The benefit happened at the same location where Jessica's balloon release took place.
