Archive for Anti-drug Campaign

While browsing the web today, I came across an amazing site that archieves hundreds of socially responsible ads. Some of them are shocking, some sad, some funny, but most get the point across in my opinion.

http://www.act-responsible.org/public/

I would have posted some of my favorites here, however the website does not allow you to copy and paste the photos elsewhere.

In particular my favorite is on the home page; it is an ad for the International Foundation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Socities. It depends a white and a black hand interwoven with “discrimination the end is in your hands” written across the fingers. I personally think this is an incredibally powerful message. The black skin against white skin is striking in itself. And furthermore, the messaeg is powerful as well since discrimination is still a problem plauging our nation.

Check out their creative gallery, it has tons of great ads!

Above the Influence

Posted by: Steve Edwards | Comments (0)

I just saw a television ad for abovetheinfluence.com. The website has both television and print ads focused on helping people take a stance against drugs. They have a place to ask questions and connect with other teens and ask a doctor question. It seems the campaign attempts to drive people to site and to make poeople look at their current behaviors in new ways. See the print ad – “Wasp” where one wasp offers another some bug spray. Yuck!

Truth

I found this on the ACT Responsible web page earlier today.  I think this is a really good way to grab people’s attention.  Definitely not the typically way people expect to see a message.  It’s definitely a strong message that many people need to hear!
