Community Expansion Ad Campaign
Below are the 2 ads that were made for promoting First Peoples Economic Growth Funds “Community Expansion” campaign to be run on all social platforms, each highlighting a community we had followed during our case studies. These ads were placed online and run for multiple months to encourage other First Nations to apply for the aids offered by First Peoples. We used clips of the case studies for these ads along with new graphics.
