We’re excited to share our latest with Brigadoon Village, a summer camp supporting children living with health conditions and other life challenges. To reach specifically those kids who are eligible for their various camps we partnered with pharmacies across Nova Scotia. In each prescription bag for a child age 7-18 with a health condition, families will find an additional “prescription” highlighting the things camp provides that medication can’t.

Happy Halloween! We’re not in the office today, but come by tomorrow for a Wunderbar.

Amidst the Squid Game craziness, here’s our latest work with Relief. We recreated the iconic Squid Game card and placed 10,000 of them around the city centres of New York and Miami. Not to invite those behind on their credit card payments to play a twisted game, but instead to let them know there’s a better way to get back on track. Relief is an app that uses AI and collective bargaining with creditors to actually reduce what people owe. Thanks for the story Adweek!

Squid Game Inspired This Brilliant Idea for an Ad About Debt Using the hit show's enigmatic imagery, agency Wunder drew attention to the app Relief.

In 2017 we started Wunder working from home offices and kitchen tables. Our main focus has always been just doing great work, by any means. But as we’ve continued to grow and our ideas required more space to execute, we started looking for a space. And in true Wunder fashion, while everyone was leaving their office in 2020 we found ours in the North End of Halifax (across from Dee Dee's Ice Cream). We moved in 9 months ago and then things got busy, but here’s a few overdue photos. It looks even better in real life, so if you’re ever in the neighbourhood, feel free to pop by and say hey.

It’s a big day for our small agency! For the second year in a row Wunder has made the Strategy small agency of the year shortlist. Winners will be announced on November 10th at the virtual gala. Wish us luck, and for more details visit the link below.
