Ogilvy Africa has won five medals at the Loeries for its “Most Eligible Bachelor” campaign that aimed to raise awareness and funds to protect the only remaining male northern white rhino in the world from extinction.
The Northern White rhino is critically endangered, with only three of its kind left in the world, living at the Ol Pejeta Conservancy.
The agency earned a Gold for Media Innovation, Silver for Public Relations, Silver for Craft, Bronze for Digital and a final Bronze for Integrated Campaign.
The five medals make Ogilvy Africa the number one agency in Kenya and Ol Pejeta the number five most awarded client at the Loeries 2017.
The Loeries are Africa and Middle East’s premiere initiative that recognises, rewards, inspires and fosters creative excellence in the brand communication industry.
