Overview

Execution

Using Puerto Rican’s love for bizarre news, we decided to create ads disguised as news written in the typical exaggerated style of yellow journalism with startling headlines so that they could not be ignored.

Outcome

The Red Cross investment was minimal because the ads were very simple. The results surpassed their expectations. They received hundreds of calls and 1,800 volunteers were recruited. Some of them travelled to Louisiana and other affected areas to provide assistance.
