Cathy O’Connor, Ooh’s CEO, said the company was highly engaged in taking Orange Sky’s message to more people than ever.

“The services provided by Orange Sky have expanded greatly over the past few years, and to build on this strong foundation we brought in our extensive in-house resources to help reach audiences at scale across Australia. Orange Sky and the volunteers do fantastic work and help people in genuine need, so we really wanted to do everything we could to support them.”

Lucas Patchett, Orange Sky’s CEO and Co-Founder, said it was great to see the messaging appear so prominently across Ooh’s network.

“We’ve had great feedback about the campaign, with many friends, volunteers, staff and other stakeholders excited to see the creative on their commutes. This campaign is about shining a light on the issue of homelessness and how easily a change of events can change a life.

“The support from Ooh is helping to encourage donations to ensure our amazing volunteers can continue to show up on shift each week to support the many Australians doing it tough.”
