The Cardvertising Project. We turned the cardboards held by the homeless, into outdoor advertisement space. How it Works: A microsite was created to urge advertisers to book ad spaces. To contribute and book the ad space, advertisers clicked the ‘help’ button. Ad messages and relevant details were then submitted. The ads were then designed for free, by volunteers. Once designed, the ads were distributed to the homeless, and displayed to the public. The advertising fees were subsequently given back to the homeless. 3026 outdoor ad spaces were sold in 2 weeks. The campaign was brought to the public’s attention on social media, with write-ups in newspapers and magazines, as well. The homeless could finally help themselves and regain their dignity.
