During the world wars, Canadian soldiers overseas sent millions of letters home to Canada. We created replicas of actual letters, sourced from the Canadian Letters & Images Project at Vancouver Island University, the largest online archive in the country. These letters were re-sent to their original destinations – to be experienced by the homes’ current residents today. This gave Canadians a unique and insightful window into the past, bringing the human experience of war to life.Despite a limited media budget, the campaign generated over 23.4 million media impressions, including Toronto Sun, Bloomberg, MSN and more. CBC Radio even aired an extended five-minute segment featuring the letters. Most importantly, HomeEquity Bank helped raise over $189,029 in individual donations for veterans and their families.
