A campaign for a new Cancer Association dedicated raising awareness to the needs of young adult cancer patients.

Every day in Israel, ten young adults ages 18-40 find out they are have cancer. Still, the country’s support system does not recognize this age category as a population with special needs.

Quite the opposite in fact. For many of these young adults who are just starting out in life – starting a family, buying an apartment, beginning their careers; getting cancer means getting stuck.

Why? Because young cancer patients (and even recovering young cancer patients) can’t get a mortgage, women cancer patients are not told to freeze their eggs (in spite of what you can imagine cancer treatments may do to their ability to conceive & have a baby) and 60% of them are not hired back to work. For them, getting cancer means getting stuck.

The “Stop Cancer” association was created to change that and provide a network of support for young adults with cancer. Therefore, in honour of the first ‘Young Adult Cancer Awareness Week’, we launched #The_Cancer_That_Stuck_Me.

The idea behind the campaign was to emphasize that while a ‘regular’ 29-year-old, buying his first apartment, life is on track to move forward, the life of another person that same age, who just was diagnosed with cancer, suddenly gets stuck. While he is asked to deal with the disease, once recovered buying an apartment will be an impossible dream as he will not be eligible for any funding or mortgage.

The campaign carried which was carried out on every media platform available, attempts to illustrate our cancer patients getting stuck and began with organic Instagram stories which hit a nerve and spread everywhere as hundreds of celebrities joined our cause and shared their stories. Live prime television broadcasts froze, live radio broadcasts got stuck as did TV Promos, Movie trailers and YouTube pre-rolls. Even Israeli President Mr. Reuven Rivlin voiced his position in support of our goal.

BBR Saatchi & Saatchi and Para Chocolate present Sweet Advisor

Creative, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , no comments

The Eurovision song contest is the biggest musical event in the world and this time it’s taking place in sun filled Tel Aviv – the ‘city that never sleeps’. In total, some 18.000 tourists are expected to make their way here. That’s why Para Chocolate, Israel’s national chocolate brand thought up a way of making their stay super sweet and at the same time give them a taste for the place they wouldn’t forget.

Working with one of the country’s best chocolatiers, it created Para Chocolate’s ‘Sweet Advisor’. A map of Tel Aviv made entirely of Para chocolate that not only details the city’s sweetest spots – but the city’s best kept secrets and places only the locals know about but make Tel Aviv what it is.

The map which awaited them on their bed at Brown and Atlas Hotels throughout the city, pinpointed over 10 points of interest in the city including:

The Shuk HaPishpeshim Flea Market – one of the city’s most colorful places where you can find vintage items while walking through the market’s picturesque side streets filled with bars and restaurants.

The Habima Square – one of the city’s most beautiful squares and home to the Habima Theater with its sunken garden in which we recommend sitting and drinking a beer from one of the nearby bars and cafes.

The Rabin Square – where you’ll find the world’s largest concentration of peace doves.

The Brown Bar – Located at the Brown Hotel which offers a real Tel Aviv kind of atmosphere and the best cocktails this side of the Middle East.

While our chocolate is probably too good to share, we’re pretty sure our visiting music fans will share the knowledge with their friends to make sure they have a stay that really rocks!

BBR Saatchi & Saatchi & Meuhedet Health Fund present: Little Superheroes An augmented reality experience

Creative, Digital, Interesting Things, International, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , no comments

Children adore being superheroes. They play with superhero dolls and mimic their signature moves, climbing on the couch just to jump off it seconds later in an attempt to fly soaring through the air just like Superman, Wonder Woman or whichever superhero is the latest flavour of the month.

But unlike superheroes, when kids go wild they can get hurt and break an arm. And when that happens, they are the farthest thing from being a hero … and their tears just leave us adults feeling helpless and powerless.

It’s exactly for cases like these, that the Meuhedet Health Fund launched a new and unique Augmented Reality experience: “Little Superheroes”. Starting today, all doctors treating kids for broken arms will apply onto kids’ casts a special band which when scanned through the health fund’s app turns their arm into a bionic arm – complete with laser beams, spikes and other superpowers – just like their favourite heroes. A sure way to make kids’ tears stop almost instantly and ensure that instead of sitting at school in a corner of the playground while their friends play – they are able to take part and become the heroes of the playground.

A Cheeky Welcome for Prince William

Interesting Things, International, , , , , , , , , , , , no comments

It’s been 70 years since a British dignitary let alone British Royalty has visited in Israel. By Israeli standards this is a wonderful opportunity for celebration and an even better one for brands to give the young prince a royal welcome ‘Israeli style’. That is why Super-Pharm, Israel’s largest drugstore chain, working together with BBR Saatchi & Saatchi advertising bought up a huge billboard space at the entrance to Jerusalem along the Prince’s schedule journey into the capital.

The billboard meant for the fair skinned and slightly balding young royal, tells him that the London sun is nothing compared to the scorching Israeli sun and kindly nudges the prince on to buy and apply Life Sunscreen. But while the billboard’s message seems mostly straightforward and innocent, it of course could not refrain from poking a little fun and derision at the “Sun” British Daily Newspaper known for grilling the royal family any occasion it gets.

We Don’t Want To Be Strong : Palestinian Israeli Bereaved Families for Peace

Interesting Things, International, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , no comments

Losing a child, a husband, a brother, a daughter, a sister or simply a loved one is always painful. But when it happens before their time, because of hate, human belligerence and fear of the other – it is intolerable. Almost unbearable and extremely hard to carry.

So naturally, people tell you to be strong. But who wants to be strong when it is a loss you are reminded of every day. In the smiles of others but also in the void that is left behind. A void and emptiness it takes superhuman strength to deal with – not to overcome because you don’t overcome this kind of loss.

So the little energy you have left, you dedicate to making sure this doesn’t happen again.
To someone else. To another mother, sister, wife or daughter.

For International Women’s Day, the women of the “Palestinian Israeli Bereaved Families for Peace” are reaching out with a message of empowerment to women everywhere and a prayer:

To all you women out there, we wish you to be strong.
Strong enough to protect your loved ones.
Strong enough to teach them to resolve conflict through dialogue.
Strong enough to prevent the next loss.
Not strong enough to mourn it.
