This collection of the top November 2014 social good ideas features a variety of inspiring PSAs and campaigns to promote wildlife protection and cancer.
Marketers and advertisers are coming up with both creative and compelling methods to raise awareness about animal rights. Brands are targeting their ads to a variety of human emotions. The 'Hunks and Hounds' calendar appeals to anyone looking for some eye candy as well as a way to support an animal rescue center in New York City. Alternatively, but equally as effective, the WWF's campaign to raise awareness on polar bears is truly disheartening and leaves a lasting impression in the minds of viewers.
Other ideas to take note of from the past month include the push for gender equality awareness. The Equal Payback Project's ad starring Sarah Silverman is both effective and informative.
For more examples of the top November 2014 social good ideas, visit Trend Hunter's Social Good Report.
