The imagery is powerful. Emotional. Unforgettable. All are important attributes of a successful advertising campaign.<\/p>\n
The SickKids Foundation\u2019s \u2018VS\u2019 campaign launched in 2016 was hailed as a massive success. It won awards and helped raise money and awareness for the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.<\/p>\n
