We were so deeply moved by this outreach initiative by the Chicago Ad community. We proudly support OFF THE STREET CLUB with our sponsorship and silent auction donation items for The Battle for Hope event, next Thursday at the Cubby Bear.
We recommend taking five minutes out of your day to watch the video below. “CH1CAGO” was written and directed by Duncan Wolf, Colin Selikow, and Vince Cook, with Chris Walker and Alana Shen. Produced by: Bridget Rose. Shot and edited by ONE at Optimus. Watch the spot below!
In an article from Reel Chicago, Rich Stoddart, CEO of Leo Burnett North America and long-time Off the StreetClub board member shared: “There are two very different Chicago’s that children can grow up in today. There is the world-class, opportunity-filled Chicago that many of us have been fortunate to give to our own kids. We dream of a Chicago in which every single child has the same fundamental rights: to find joy, to harness their own brilliance, to hold on to their innocence just a little bit longer, to be who they are without fear of what danger may lurk around them.” Read the full article HERE!
The Battle of Hope is an annual Chicago Advertising Agency Battle of the Bands to benefit the Off The Street Club. It was started in 2013 by Digitas with inspiration from the New York City Advertising Week Battle of the Bands.
OFF THE STREET CLUB provides kids ages 4-18 on the city’s West side a safe place to go after school offering a secure environment for the next generation to grow up.
