My favourite ads.
Here at SOFII, we are always looking for new examples of innovation, creativity and great storytelling – and they don’t just have to come from the charity sector. In this showcase, you’ll find some brilliant advertisements that have inspired, amused and surprised the public – something that we should be doing with our donors on a regular basis. Everybody has their own favourite adverts – why not tell us yours?
