Creative Execution

How can you place an evicted family under a bridge directly and symbolically? By creating a rubber stamp on which this family was represented and asking people to stamp it under the bridges on every euro bill. Our appeal was made through the hashtag #NoMasDesahucios and moved on social networks, from despatches to opinion leaders and a web site. In less than 24 hours a social movement had been created in the streets, on social networks and in the media. Currently the movement continues advancing organically.

The most significant result: Two weeks after the campaign launch, the Spanish President announced the ‘Second Chance Law’ to stop evictions. Additionally, the other political parties included similar policies in their electoral programs. Additionally: • An estimated audience of 80.1 million • 20,000 rubber stamps ran out in 24 hours • More than 120 media appearances including on the highest rating TV programs • More than 100,000 tweets • ROI of 1,217,220 € • Thousands of euro bills stamped • When stocks of stamps ran out, many people ‘drew’ our stamp on euro bills

The situation was critical. In 2014, more than 20,000 families in Spain had lost their homes because they couldn’t pay their mortgage and despite being evicted remaining in debt to the bank. Spain is the only country in the world where this occurs. Neither the media nor the Government showed any interest in fixing the problem. Our objective was to make society aware of and empathetic to the issue to amend this injustice. How? Through a ‘media’ that would put our message directly into everyone’s hands…euro bills. We used a rubber stamp as a protest to spread our message. We started with a universal insight. Where do people go when they are left without a home? Colloquially speaking it is said they go and live ‘under a bridge’ and we realised that every single euro bill has a bridge printed on it.
