HDSA Launches New Faces <strong>of</strong> Huntington’s Campaign!<br />
Last spring, HDSA began<br />
a new ad campaign that<br />
focuses on the Faces <strong>of</strong><br />
Huntington’s. This new<br />
awareness effort uses real<br />
HD families to graphically<br />
depict the courage and<br />
determination <strong>of</strong> those<br />
affected by HD and the<br />
incredible and lasting love<br />
<strong>of</strong> their family. To date, two<br />
ads, featuring mothers and<br />
daughters - Jean and Kelly<br />
Miller and Shana and<br />
Debbie Martin- have appeared in regional issues <strong>of</strong> major<br />
national publications thanks to an ongoing in-kind gift from a<br />
major media placement firm. A third ad is in development that<br />
will address juvenile HD<br />
in a youth under the age<br />
<strong>of</strong> 10.<br />
All ads have been created<br />
at virtually no cost to<br />
HDSA through yet<br />
another generous in kind<br />
gift from three extremely<br />
talented individuals in the<br />
advertising industry.<br />
HDSA wishes to extend its<br />
sincerest thanks to both<br />
the media placement firm<br />
and to these very generous<br />
and creative individuals who have given HDSA a truly<br />
meaningful and very personal awareness campaign.<br />
