SUMMARY
1 in 4 Canadians under the age of 45 don’t see the importance of Veterans’ week because fewer Canadians have a connection to our military veterans as years go by.
As the world obsessed over NFTs, we learned that data encrypted on the blockchain allowed for content to be immortalized.
To connect with this younger audience we immortalized the names of every fallen Canadian soldier in a series of donation-driving, purchasable NFT poppies.
The “Immortal Poppy” NFTs raised $40,000 in sales and resale royalties while generating 87 million earned impressions.
