The official sponsor of birthdays. The creative assets doubled as fundraising tools. Each piece of art was made into posters and wrapping paper that was sold online. And all videos could be sent via mobile on a cancer survivor’s birthday. To date, it’s by far the most admired and impactful campaign in ACS history.
