Support March of Dimes and the Free Paper Industry
|
March of Dimes is the free paper industry's selected national charity. By supporting March of Dimes, free papers are not only supporting a very worthy cause, but also promoting the strength of our industry.
I am writing you today to ask you to run the ads promoting the 2009 March for Babies campaign.
The ad above (see thumbnail) can be downloaded by clicking here. There is both a color and black & white version. Additional sizes of these ads can be accessed at www.paperchainnetwork.net by clicking the March of Dimes link.
The annual spring events will be conducted soon throughout the United States. To find out when the March for Babies is being held in your community visit www.marchforbabies.org. Click "Find an Event" and then click your state. Every event is listed at this location.
March of Dimes is the leading organization for pregnancy and baby health and its mission is to improve the health of babies by preventing health defects, premature birth and infant mortality.
March of Dimes has requested that members of PaperChain run Public Service Announcements announcing this important activity. Ads should run during the Spring, when space permits in your publication.
Please coordinate your placement of these ads with your local chapter of the March of Dimes event. And please run the ads as often as you can preceding your local march. This will provide the best results for the campaign.
This is also a great opportunity to interact with the community leaders supporting your local walk.
Thank you for your consideration. For each ad you run, please fill out an affidavit (attached to the downloaded ad copy) and return it to Vinnie Grassis, PaperChain March of Dimes Chair, at vgrassia@jcpgroup.com.

Bar Codes In Newspaper Ads Link To Web Content Via Mobile App |
Canada's National Post newspaper began
using two-dimensional (2D) bar codes this week to link newspaper
articles to video and other content.
The link from paper to the Web is made possible through a free
downloadable mobile app for smartphones from Scanbuy, N.Y. Directions
on nationalpost.com point visitors to getscanlife.com. When the camera
on the phone takes a picture of the bar code, the application reads the
embedded information in the code and triggers a Web browser to open,
which searches the Internet for the URL and serves up the page on the
phone.
National Post hopes to offer advertisers a print ad service that gives
consumers options to discover more information about products and
services on the Web, according to Scanbuy CEO Jonathan Bulkeley. He
noted that Canwest Publishing is the largest media company in Canada.
