Let's Make this Happen: We have a winner, now let's fund it!

Thx from the Bay Bridge - Billboard

This holiday season, LoudSauce is asking you to shape the message that greets drivers crossing the Bay Bridge into San Francisco during the final week of 2011. First, we asked for your ideas on Facebook- tons of great slogans and concepts came in. Next, we held a brainstorming party to take these ideas to the next level and enlisted Bay Area creative types to come up with some designs.

Then we voted over 3 days to vote for a winning billboard below! Now let's fund it over the next 10 days so we can get it up!

Let's usher in the transformative new year for over 600,000 Bay Area drivers and show how together, we can shape the kind of world we want to live in. We need you to help make this happen- please fund the campaign for the winning billboard to bring to life. Note: only funders who chipped in before 5pm PT on Thursday Dec 8th will be able to be highlighted in the final billboard.  

Final Voting for Billboard

Concept #1: Compassion Doesn't Require a Receipt

2011 has shown us the importance of civility and compassion in the public discourse- after holiday gifts have all been unwrapped, this billboard calls on us to enter 2012 with a renewed sense of compassion.
- Design by Reena Karia



Concept #2: The Beginning is Near: ANewSystem.org

In 2011, people around the world decided that enough is enough, the current political and economic system has got to change. ANewSystem.org would showcase Bay Area organizations and companies already at work building a more just and sustainable system. - Concept by Amanda Ravenhill and Charles Baker



Concept #3: A Thank You Note from the Bay Bridge

This year, politicians debated public spending for basic social goods- this billboard message reminds drivers that the Bay Bridge is made possible by public dollars. - Design by Big New Ideas

Thanks from the Bay Bridge Billboard


Concept #4: Let's Build a System that Works for More Than 1%

In the last year especially, Americans en masse have gathered to demand economic system that works for more than just the 1%. This message is delivered through a simple yet compelling infographic and will be brough to you by the 99%.
