Youth Ambassadors

The Good Man, My Big Brothers, Welcome to My Neighborhood...

Agency: VML

Description

Many Americans live privileged lives. They can’t relate to the horrors inner-city youth endure daily. To help America empathize, a children’s book was created using inner-city children’s real-life experiences of drug abuse, violence and hunger to create a children’s book. The book, “Welcome to My Neighborhood,” consisted of three illustrated bedtime stories “A Good Man,” “Dinner Time” and “My Older Brothers,” each telling a different child’s story — one of drug abuse, one of violence and one of hunger. Each horrific yet true story came to life using the child’s own words, but was put into a format everyone could relate to. It was a book written by children, yet not suitable for children. The book was distributed to key policymakers, funders and media outlets asking them to donate their time, money and power to help put an end to stories like these.

This professional campaign titled 'The Good Man, My Big Brothers, Welcome to My Neighborhood...' was published in United States in October, 2016. It was created for the brand: Youth Ambassadors, by ad agency: VML. This Print medium campaign is related to the Public Interest industry and contains 5 media assets. It was submitted over 7 years ago.
