Brief Explanation
Our societies are becoming divided and some politicians are encouraging prejudice. As the department store for everybody, HEMA believes that you should love everybody.
For Pride Amsterdam, the festival for equality, the brand created thousands of t-shirts with a random name on it. Each with a heart in front of the name. We put them in unmarked packaging, so people couldn’t tell which name was on the shirt. Ten thousand people bought the shirt, carrying out the message: love everybody. Regardless what their color, age or sexual preference is.
HEMA sold 10,000 shirts, which meant 1 in 56 people attendees was wearing our shirt that day, which led to 100.000 euros collected for Dutch Gender & Sexuality Alliance. The shirts resulted in 55 million impressions for HEMA totalling 732,000 euros in earned media, good for a 3700% return on advertising spend.
