New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation has launched “Our
Women”, a love song by New Zealand artists for all kiwi women to hear. The
music video, featuring “Not Taken Lightly” by Chris Knox, is designed to remind
New Zealand women that they are precious and irreplaceable, and making sure
each one has the information needed to stay healthy. Helena McAlpine was first
diagnosed with breast cancer in 2008. Her story through treatment and remission
was covered in national media. Now in 2012 the cancer has returned and Helena
has been told she will not survive this time. To ensure that other kiwi women
didn’t suffer the same fate, Helena partnered with the NZBCF to create a
special message. The campaign is online at ourwomen.co.nz, aiming to reach the
2,098,654 women of New Zealand.
Breast Cancer Awareness: Inspiring Ad Shows Woman Returning
To Her Life (VIDEO)
"Hair", a commercial for OU Medicine's Cancer
Center reminds viewers that cancer treatment is an emotionally costly time for
patients.
Creating a hopeful commercial about cancer is fraught
territory, but advertising agency BVK’s ad for the University of Oklahoma's new
cancer centre managed to forego the use of pink in an ad that is both subtle
and powerful as it shows a woman recovering from cancer and chemotherapy, the
changes she undergoes compressed into a single morning.
In the video, we see a woman, bald from chemotherapy treatments,
staring at her own reflection in despair. As she goes about her morning
routine, activities most of us take for granted -- showering, dressing, making
a sandwich -- becoming moments of reflection, as we watch her hair, and her
smile, slowly return.
Without ever using the word "cancer," BVK shows a
woman coming back from the lowest point in her life in a way that reminds us
that illness and healing are constant, daily experiences for those going
through them.
Breast Cancer Campaigns
Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM) (also referred to
locally as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month (NBCAM)) is an annual
international health campaign organized by major breast cancer charities every
October to increase awareness of the disease and to raise funds for research
into its cause, prevention and cure. The campaign also offers information and
support to those affected by breast cancer.
Breast Cancer Awareness Bare in Scotland
NHS is running a television advertising campaign in
Scotland, using what appears to be a naked woman holding images breasts
containing early stage breast cancer. Glasgow actress Elaine C Smith, whose
mother died of breast cancer, reminds her viewers that lumps aren’t the only
signs of cancer. Any changes should be checked out. The breast cancer campaign
is part of the Scottish Government’s £30 million Detect Cancer Early drive,
which aims to increase the early detection of cancer by 25 per cent, saving
more than 300 lives a year by the end of the next Parliamentary term. The
campaign launched on 4th September 2012 and is running across TV (post 9pm),
radio, online and press for four weeks.
Support for the Woman Behind the Cancer
Breast Cancer Care in the UK is running “Support for the woman behind the cancer”, an integrated advertising campaign using striking imagery to illustrate that behind most breast cancer diagnoses is a real woman with emotional and practical support needs. The campaign is centred around the concept of a woman emerging from a veil of medication. A video is supplemented with billboards and outdoor posters, and an opportunity for people to show their support for the woman behind the breast cancer. A pro-bono Facebook advertising campaign with Sponsored Stories is being coordinated by BLiNQ Media to reach thousands of users at facebook.com/breastcancercare. Breast Cancer Care has recruited guest bloggers to talk about their own experiences on the campaign area of the charity’s website: breastcancercare.org.uk/thewoman.
Dress for the Cause
The Breast Cancer Society of Canada and Dress for the Cause
campaign invited companies, schools, organizations and clubs to participate in Dress
for the Cause by wearing “support bra” t-shirts. The campaign, focused on
raising funds for breast cancer research encouraged men and women to wear pink on October 28.
Pink Ribbon Girls Should Never Be Parted
Breast cancer awareness magazine Pink Ribbon launched a print
and video advertising campaign in the Netherlands featuring shots by British
photographer Rankin. “Girls should never be parted”, the tagline of the
campaign, is connected with photographs of women with two bare breasts. The
print campaign included poems celebrating the friendship between two breasts,
ending with an encouragement to buy Pink Ribbon Magazine, a charity glossy
magazine raising funds for The Pink Ribbon Foundation, Netherlands.
Boobyball Bares All
Rethink Breast Cancer recently commissioned four women to
pose topless in Toronto raise awareness of the BoobyBall fundraising event. The
four models, one of whom is a breast cancer survivor, each presented a message
written on their breasts, posing for photographs with supportive bystanders.
“Hang out for a good cause”. “Bras aren’t the only support they need”. “Where
cleavage meets charity”. “Boobyball 10 boobyball.com”. The
BoobyBall Bares All campaign was developed at Crispin Porter & Bogusky,
Toronto, by creative directors Aaron Starkman, Michael Murray, Darren
Richardson, art director Gail Pak, copywriters Neil Blewett and Freddy Nduna,
and producer Jen Dark
