“Let your 2nd hand clothes help the 3rd world.” That is the message of this PSA ad campaign from The Netherlands.
The ads show used clothes as teachers and workers that lend a helping hand to the underprivileged kids in the third world.
Watch the above video to see the clothes in action.
The campaign was created by LoweDraftFcb, Amsterdam with a creative team that includes Maarten Vrouwes, Friso Ludenhoff, and Peter Burger.
