the client.
TANZ, also known as the Tourette’s Association of New Zealand, operates as a national organisation with its headquarters situated in Cambridge, Waikato. The association hosts various support groups across the country, both in-person and online, to foster connections and provide support for families living with Tourette’s Syndrome. TANZ also conducts educational workshops for schools, government agencies, community groups and businesses.
In May 2022, TANZ initiated a partnership with SOL Digital to focus on enhancing awareness of Tourette Syndrome and actively encourage donations from audiences in New Zealand and Australia. This involves utilising a traffic campaign advertisement that directs individuals to TANZ's website. Furthermore, SOL Digital supports increasing the awareness of TANZ through post engagement ads, providing an extra boost to TANZ content.

the challenge.
​
Established in 2013, TANZ emerged at a time when there was a lack of awareness within the New Zealand audience regarding Tourette’s syndrome. This historical context continues to present challenges for TANZ even today, as many people in New Zealand remain uninformed about Tourette’s syndrome. As a result, raising donations from the New Zealand audience proves to be exceedingly difficult due to this ongoing lack of awareness.
our approach.
To tackle these challenges, TANZ's advertising campaign strategically targeted specific audiences, including individuals likely to support charitable causes, businesses or NGOs that align with TANZ values and those personally passionate about the TANZ cause.
A different approach involved creating engaging TANZ creative ads to raise awareness about Tourette syndrome. Testimonial videos featured both children and adults sharing their experiences, such as a child overcoming bullying with a positive mindset. Volunteers also provided insights on supporting individuals with Tourette's. This approach aimed to educate and foster empathy within the community for a more informed and compassionate society.
Through these advertising campaigns, the New Zealand audience was encouraged to interact with TANZ ads, particularly video testimonials highlighting how their support can make a difference for people with Tourettes. Viewers were then directed to the TANZ donation website page after engaging with the advertisements.
