The Fondation des jeunes de la DPJ launched an impactful video for its annual holiday fundraising campaign—whose objective is to raise public awareness about the Foundation’s mission by stirring up emotions. With the generous help of 00001 and Circonflex, Cossette crafted a poignant message featuring none other than Santa Claus himself. On reading a child’s letter, a great sadness washes over Santa’s face when he realizes it’s a wish even he can’t make come true—to be given love and attention.
