Where status matters, real need often remains invisible.
Challenge
The Kindertraum Foundation fulfills the heartfelt wishes of seriously ill children—but in tough economic times, real needs often get overlooked. Custom-made wheelchairs, in particular, are quickly seen as luxury items. Our challenge: generate as many donations as possible with a small media budget and raise awareness of the high costs involved.
Where prestige usually stands, we showcase humanity.
Solution
Die Kampagne bricht bewusst Erwartungen: Statt neuer Automarke präsentieren wir einen Spezial-Rollstuhl im Showroom – mit allem, was dazugehört. So wird ein ungenutzter Touchpoint zum emotionalen Medienmoment. Unterstützt von TV, Print, Digital und Motorumfeldern trifft die Botschaft ins Schwarze: Maßanfertigung ist kein Luxus – sondern Notwendigkeit.
