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 />
