// Chobani 'Olympics'
Chobani Yogurt started with an empty plant and a handful of employees, and just 5 years later, they’re the #1 yogurt brand in America. It’s a story showing how anything is possible if you have real heart for what you do - just like our Olympic athletes.
That’s the focus of our spot airing nationally during the 2012 Olympic Opening Ceremony. The real community behind Chobani came together to build a giant outdoor cinema screen, to watch the Olympics together from Upstate New York.
Watch the rest of Chobani’s Olympic story here.

// Drugfree.org
When parents realize their kid has a drug or alcohol problem, the most common emotion is that they don’t know what to do. Parents feel isolated and alone, and don’t know where to get help. Knowing who to turn to should be as obvious as knowing who to call if your house is on fire, if someone breaks into your house, or if you find yourself in an emergency situation. When parents find themselves in this situation, they should understand that they’re not alone, and Partnership at drugfree.org is the first place they should go to for help.

// WWF 'Vote Earth'
With people aware of global warming as an environmental issue, it was time to turn awareness into real action from world leaders. Our solution was to transform the light switch into a vote, and hold the world’s first global election between Earth and Global Warming. The idea grew organically into a movement which motivated over 1 billion people across 88 countries to Vote Earth by switching off their lights. Vote Earth became the largest social movement in human history and was recognized by the world’s political leaders as a mandate for action from people of the world.

// WWF 'Earth FM'
Throughout history, our world has been shaped by peoples' voices. But today it is our planet that needs a voice. With a goal to reach world leaders on the issue of climate change, we created Earth FM - a digital radio station which invited people of the world to make their voice heard, as one voice for the planet. Earth FM was broadcast and delivered to the United Nations as a voice for action on climate change.
