As tumultuous news pushed youth gun violence to the sidelines, Sandy Hook Promise knew they needed to evoke deep emotions to break through. We juxtaposed a pop-cultural embodiment of our collective youthful ideal – Katy Perry’s #1 hit “Teenage Dream” – with the real-life experiences of school shooting survivors, exposing the huge gap between our idealization of high school and the reality students face today. With no paid media, we gained broad exposure, broke through, shifted opinions, and drove action across the cultural spectrum.

Shock Market
“I’ll do everything in my power to protect the American people from the epidemic of gun violence” - President Biden But after a year in office, nothing changed.

And a little over a month and 2.49B earned media impressions later, he actually did.

Due to the pandemic and the George Floyd crisis in our backyard, food insecurity in Minnesota rose 40%. As the state’s major food bank, Second Harvest Heartland is responsible for 1,000 partner food shelves. The usual $1 million holiday giving goal wasn’t going to be enough. Our experimental campaign and change in approach from "giving" to "sharing" led to 47.68MM impressions, a 306% increase in social media CTR, 86% more new user web traffic, and a crisis-averting 190% increase in donations in just 8 weeks. Resulting in a 422% ROI.
