Director Jeff Bednarz of Directorz, Dallas, profiles three young women who have been helped by the Salvation Army via its temporary housing services. This spot is part of an extensive campaign from The Richards Group, Dallas, in which real people tell us of the Salvation Army’s impact on their lives.
One of the woman in “Housing” notes that she was living in the streets, pregnant and strung out on drugs when she sought a way out in order “to give my child more.”
That way out was Salvation Army providing temporary housing to the homeless. Another woman says that she has been “blessed” by the generosity of the Salvation Army.
A voiceover relates, “Your holiday donations to the Salvation Army help us to make change all year long.”

And it said that the a revenue-sharing deal between the two U.S. Big Tech companies "significantly reduces their financial incentives" to compete in mobile browsers on Apple's iOS operating system for iPhones.
Both companies said they will "engage constructively" with the CMA.
Apple said it disagreed with the findings and said it was concerned that the recommendations would undermine user privacy and security.
Google said the openness of its Android mobile operating system "has helped to expand choice, reduce prices and democratize access to smartphones and apps" and that it's "committed to open platforms that empower consumers."
It's the latest move by regulators on both sides of the Atlantic to crack down on the... Read More
