Effectiveness
In Portugal, the whole month of October 2013 was dedicated to Breast Cancer Awareness. During this period many social and media activities from different organizations took place. This ad was published in the monthly Vogue edition (November) contributing to the strength of this movement.

Strategy
1 in every 11 women is affected by breast cancer. 90% of cases are curable, if detected in time. For this to happen, self-examination is crucial.Yet, most women will not or cannot do it.Encouraging and teaching how to perform the self-exam, demonstrating how simple it is.Vogue iPad is a widely read magazine among women, and the instructions for its use are extremely simple.Therefore, we decided to replicate these instructions and create an ad explaining how to perform the simple checks.

Execution
An ad published in the iPad edition of Vogue, next to the reading instructions, with message: Checking for the signs of breast cancer is as easy as touching this magazine.
