Parkinson Society Canada invites Canadians to show their support for more than 100,000 people living with Parkinson’s disease. World Parkinson’s Day is celebrated annually on this day, April 11th, the birthday of Dr. James Parkinson, for whom the disease is named. Celebrations across Canada include the sale of fresh tulip, parliamentary proclamations and educational events.

On April 11, 2005, the Red Tulip (the Parkinson Tulip) was launched as the Worldwide Symbol of Parkinson’s disease at the 9th World Parkinson’s disease Day Conference in Luxembourg.

The day is dedicated to advocating for people with Parkinson’s. World Parkinson’s Day increases awareness of Parkinson’s and is intended to spur new research and treatment initiatives. Parkinson Society Canada works to educate the public, particularly during the month of April, Parkinson Awareness Month, by hosting fundraising and awareness events and reaching out to Canadians with Parkinson’s and the general public.

Take The Plunge

Genumark client Central 1 asked us to source swimming floaties. Although this may seem like a strange and unusual promotional product to find, this is not the first time we have had to do this. What was unique about this project, however, was the way that Central 1 intended to use them!

Central 1 was creating marketing materials for an event called the MACU (Marketing Association for Credit Unions) Strategic Marketing Conference & Aime Awards Gala which is being held in Niagara Falls in June. To tie in with the event location and the iconic waterfall, they wanted to customize a floatie with the event’s logo and slogan of ‘Take the Plunge’. Now the genius part of this is that the floatie along with a custom printed insert are going to be used as the invitation to the event. Cleverly tying together the location of Niagara Falls , the floatie and a slogan of ‘Take the Plunge’ – we think this is an amazing demonstration of what the conference is: strategic marketing!
