SickKids VS - Crews
The Vs campaign was introduced to help SickKids Hospital with the largest healthcare fundraising initiative in Canadian history–raising $1.3 billion needed to build a completely new SickKids. And it’s a fight we are winning; the campaign has been incredibly successful to date. Yet somewhat ironically, this success also now meant Vs had to evolve for us to keep winning. This case demonstrates how a move from mass to micro targeting at scale allowed us to reach new audiences, motivating them to join SickKids fight and keep breaking fund-raising records.

World Pride 2019
For WorldPride 2019, Mastercard had its biggest opportunity yet to deliver real change for the LGBTQIA+ community. We shone a light on the most marginalized within that community—transgender and non-binary individuals—to identify a pain point too often brushed aside. With a product innovation (True Name) and a symbol of inclusion (Acceptance Street), we offered a simple yet powerful solution. The result was a tremendously positive response within the LGBTQIA+ community and real change driven within the financial services industry.

The Healing House
Healing house re-ignited a conversation around HIV stigma. Trained by the Toronto Blue Jays RMT, our HIV+ healers brought Canadians in close proximity with their biggest fear: being touched by an HIV+ human. Our event generated more social conversation in 3 days about HIV stigma in Canada than in all of 2018. We reached 66% of Canadians and created 538 stories globally. Most importantly, our healers changed the perception of the 77% of participants who had been touched by them.
