About us
We are where creativity and causes converge. Where media meets message. Where substance meets scale. We are the Ad Council and together we make progress: AdCouncil.org As a non-profit organization, we bring together the most creative minds in advertising, media and tech to address the most worthy causes. Since 1942, Ad Council icons and slogans have woven into the very fabric of American culture. From our earliest efforts including “Loose Lips Sink Ships,” Smokey Bear’s “Only You Can Prevent Wildfires” and “Friends Don’t Let Friends Drive Drunk” to the recent groundbreaking Love Has No Labels, #EndFamilyFire and #SheCanSTEM, the Ad Council’s social good campaigns shift mindsets and spur movements. The Ad Council settles for nothing less than a lasting impact on American life.

It’s important to make sure children are in the right car seat or restraint for their age and size. That’s why we’re teaming up with National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA and the new animated film, Gracie and Pedro: Pets to the Rescue, to help keep children safe on the road. This partnership reminds parents to double-check that their kids are in the right seat for every adventure at NHTSA.gov/TheRightSeat.

The best way to help those affected by a humanitarian crisis is by donating money rather than goods. To support the people impacted by Hurricane Helene, donate to the GlobalGiving fund at SupportDisasterRelief.org.

What an honor it was to represent the Ad Council, Brady: United Against Gun Violence & our End Family Fire campaign last night at the Advertising Research Foundation (ARF)'s David Ogilvy Awards. We brought home not one but two awards recognizing the creative effectiveness and impact of our "Prepare for Misuse" effort. Big shoutout to our creative team at McKinney and our research partners at Instapanel for helping bring this creative to life. Safe gun storage saves lives, and we're grateful to ARF and the jury for acknowledging the power of public education to prevent gun violence.
