by | Jun 9, 2021

J. Walcher Communications (JWC), a top San Diego marketing and communications agency, won Silver and Bronze Awards at the 2021 American Advertising Awards – San Diego Competition for their campaign for the County of San Diego and Multicultural Health Foundation’s “Together Against COVID,” campaign focused on providing accurate, consistent and timely COVID-19 information to the African American/Black communities of San Diego County.

The Silver Award was given to JWC in the “Corporate Social Responsibility Billboard/Poster” category and the Bronze Award in the “Television Corporate Social Responsibility” category, both for the “Together Against COVID” campaign.

The campaign, developed as a “disruption awareness campaign” features a series of outdoor, radio/TV commercials, print and out-of-home advertising promoting awareness, resources and information about COVID-19 to San Diego’s African American/Black community.

“We wanted to get away from the messages that were starting to fall on deaf ears – the importance of social distancing, mask wearing – by tying our campaign to social justice issues. Doug Moore and Robert Borges, our creative director and copywriter, respectively, dug deep into the issue to create a campaign that got attention and drove people to a website for more information,” said Jean Walcher, president of JWC.

The American Advertising Awards – San Diego Competition is the local advertising industry’s largest and most representative competition, recognizing creative excellence and the very best advertising in both local and national markets.
