The mission statement of the Ad Council says that: Our mission is to identify a select number of significant public issues and stimulate action on those issues through communications programs that make a measurable difference in our society. To that end, the Ad Council marshals volunteer talent from the advertising and communications industries, the facilities of the media, and the resources of the business and non-profit communities to create awareness, foster understanding and motivate action. The Ad Council’s historical timeline gives you examples of campaigns that the council has developed.  The PSA’s developed by the Council are presented on your local TV and/or radio stations.  Examples of classic campaigns are found at:  Click here for examples of classic PSA campaigns.
