  • Chicago, IL (1888PressRelease) April 10, 2012 - The Web Marketing Association recently presented I Imagine Studio with the prestigious Internet Advertising Competition Award for Best Non-Profit Online Campaign for its outstanding work on the ThisClose.net microsite, an online component of Rotary International's global campaign to eradicate polio.The IAC Awards honor excellence in online advertising, recognize the individuals and organizations responsible and showcase the best in award-winning Internet advertising.

    I Imagine's entry, an interactive microsite, was created as part of Rotary International's effort to further heighten global awareness of polio and garner support for its polio eradication initiatives by encouraging and enabling people around the world to become part of the "This Close" campaign.

    The site allows visitors to create their own "This Close" ads by selecting a silhouette, adding their name and picture, and adjusting skin and background colors to their preference. Once customized, the ads can be shared via social networks and emailed or saved to visitors' computers. Visitors can also leaf through an interactive book to view a gallery of user-customized ads and scan the world map to determine users from which countries have participated the most.

    "I Imagine Studio helped Rotary take our "This Close" campaign and make it interactive by including an online audience in our polio eradication message," said David Alexander, Manager of Rotary International's Public Relations Division. "We were able to raise awareness for our mission to end polio through this effort."
