10 public service ads that aim for humor

Can good causes use humor effectively?

In honor of the Sunday funnies, here are 10 public service ads that seek to use humor to effect change, courtesy of the Huffington Post.

I rather like this one.

Short and sweet with a clear call to action.

What do you think?

These were great, certainly funny and to the point quickly. I recently subscribed to your blog and have been enjoying learning from it. Thank you

Here’s another one from north of the border Katya. Cringeworthy for the target audience, but effective.

I love the father cheering with his little girl. Point clearly expressed, and endearing. It’ll stick with me. Short and sweet. Love it!

I think that’s wonderful. Only for your child would you put yourself out there like that.

I’m praying that my little girl won’t need that help from me though

On a serious note. Yes, to the point, effective, memorable.
