Unicef

The trouble with social media is that people get a false sense of charity. Slacktivism as described by the  Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS is something where people who support a cause by performing simple measures instead of being truly engaged or devote to make a change. This latest advertisement of Unicef asks people to not just like the page for support but also donate for vaccine.

Nature Valley

Three years ago, Granola-Bar brand Nature Valley and McCann Erickson took people into an interactive hiking experience. Using the latest imaging and video technology, they made use of the Google Street View to map trails in three National Parks. The campaign proved to be a success and was awarded with two gold Lions at Cannes. Just recently, they added new features and new trails for viewing. The new site boosts an interactive map with a really wonderful conservation content.

Dove

Dove has been pretty aggressive with their campaigns lately and with their recent viral campaign, Dove asserts the idea of real beauty. In their latest billboard at Tel Aviv, Israel Dove made this display with a young woman hiding behind of what seems to be like a cloth with the copy:

[pullquote]Six out of ten girls are ashamed of their bodies. Mom, join the conversation about the ideals of beauty.[/pullquote]

This is to encourage mothers and their daughter to address their low self-esteem issues with their appearance.

Subway

As adults, we already know that too much of the good stuff is bad, especially if we are talking about those sweet savory treats. During Childhood Obesity Month in Puerto Rico, Subway made this advert wherein they let children do their own shopping. Being kids, they picked the sugary stuff while parents watched in horror. The video was then aired on local media that triggered a great discussion in social media.

Allergease

Not everyone likes flowers specially if they are allergic to it. Now what would happen if these flowers are two men in costume out to scare people when they least expect it? Competing against giant anti-allergy products around the world, Allergease, the first all-natural lozenge, released this hilarious web film to show that they too can handle the job.
