septimuswarren sent me the link today to "Get To Know Us First."
quoting their website:
"We successfully ran our ads on broadcast and cable television in 42 of California’s 58 counties before, during and after the Presidential Inauguration on January 20, 2009. These images of happy gay and lesbian families are new for many viewers and our work has just begun.
Next stop? The Super Bowl! Every dollar we collect will go to purchase ads during the most viewed sports event of the year (Sunday, February 1, 2009). No doubt, our PSAs will be the topic of many a water cooler conversation. I am willing to believe that, stacked up against the Cheetos, Fritos and Pepsi ads, ours will stand out as remarkable!
Because we have partnered with POWER UP, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, every dollar you contribute is tax deductible AND goes exclusively to buy media time. There is no overhead (paperclips, staff, gala events, reimbursed mileage, etc.) This a $0 budget project... everyone donated their time and talents and POWER UP produced these ads FOR FREE!
Give generously and help us to put these ads on the air!"
Simply amazing work...
