For over 120 years, The Salvation Army has been much more than red buckets and bells at Christmastime. 83% of the donations they receive go directly to the homeless and food shelters, youth shelters, youth centers, programs for the downtrodden and addicted, and disaster and elderly relief throughout the world, year-round. The problem is, no one really knows about all that. The Salvation Army desperately needed a campaign that would put them squarely in the sights of new donors. The catch: no budget. VIA took it on, and created a highly impactful campaign that cost basically $0.

Whether it's downloading an album or a story, sharing content with multiple devices, or backing up a file, the cloud certainly makes life easy. But according to Greenpeace, what many of us don't know is that the clouds of Apple®, Amazon® and Microsoft® are largely powered by dirty energy. The following online videos were developed as part of a Greenpeace campaign to encourage the big three to clean up their clouds.

In 1878, a little brewery named Genesee starts brewing a little beer—a little beer that winds up making a big splash. Genesee was the toast of the town. Now fast-forward 130 years. After a series of ownership changes and years of under-supporting its brands, North American Breweries bought the now-waning Genesee brewery. And the revival was on. NAB now had a suite of products—anchored by Genny Light and the cult-like Genny Cream—that were authentic, real and totally untapped by the "now" generation of beer fans. All they had to do was reach them. This story is how they did it. The rest is, of course, history…

The Discover Card has always been known for great customer service—and they single-handedly invented the "cash back" revolution—but in the face of constant competition and product innovation from major competitors like Bank of America^® and Chase^®, Discover needed to reclaim its position as the rightful "kings of cash back." Step one: give one million dollars back to one very lucky Discover cardholder. Step two: find a way to make it matter. Find a way to extend it across the brand's entire position and product portfolio. Step three: VIA.

In 2008, Welch's Grape Juice had all but disappeared off the radar of American parents. They shared the misperception that Welch's was loaded with sugar and bad for kids, when it was anything but. The stone cold facts were bleak to say the least: the heaviest consumers of the brand only bought it an average of four times a year. They needed to go to market with something that would break through the branding noise of the competition. VIA to the rescue, with ideas that truly created a sea change in perception and purchasing behavior.

Unilever's constant innovation and product development of the Klondike family of frozen treats was in direct contrast with its tried, true, but somewhat tired 1982 theme line, "What would you do for a Klondike bar?" Enter VIA. Through an alliance with Filmaka, a consortium of indie filmmakers in Los Angeles, a deep-dive exploratory was undertaken. But in the end, it was VIA's fresh—and endlessly entertaining— concept that broke through. And put the brand back on the radar of ice cream nation.

The year is 2010. The iPad™ is busy ushering in "the official year of the tab," tightening its death-grip on the market. No one—as in, not anyone— appeared able to muster a formidable response. But my, how quickly things change. Together with Samsung, VIA helped insert the new Galaxy Tab square into the middle of the fight. Running the Android™ platform, Adobe^® Flash^®-enabled and not tied to AT&T™, VIA found the Galaxy Tab's sweet spot and set out to unravel the iPad's grip on the market. In doing so, we took share from the Motorola XOOM™, the HP^® TouchPad and Blackberry's^® PlayBook™. And yes, even from the iPad itself.
