Miami Ad School TORONTO

🏆MAD TO students and snagged an Applied Arts award for their campaign “Don’t Tickle Me Elmo”.

1 in 10 Canadians are sexually victimized before they turn 18. A big reason behind this number is that children aren’t taught about consent or the right terms for their intimate body parts. Abusers in turn exploit this lack of knowledge. But there’s a silver lining, 95% of child sexual abuse cases can be prevented through education. So we decided to update a childhood classic and turn it into the ultimate tool against child sexual abuse - the Don’t Tickle Me Elmo doll.

Congratulations ladies for being awarded and for promoting social responsibility. Also high five for coming up with the idea during Laura Serra’s Creative Experience class 🙌

It’s about time!! 🙌🙌

We couldn’t be more proud of our founders, Pippa Seichrist & Ron Seichrist for their amazing work in creating Miami Ad School and for being inducted into ’s Hall of Fame.

We are so lucky to be part of such a wonderful organization that has given so many creative talents a start in their professional careers.
