Operation Knock Out
HISTORY
In 2009 after traversing through Camden City since 2003 and trying to encourage people to get their pit bulls spayed and neutered, Kathy McGuire had an idea to put someone on a billboard that would be a role model for people with pit bulls to do the responsible thing and get their dogs fixed.
Our billboard “model” had to be someone that would grab people’s attention, be gritty and “real”. After someone suggested we ask Bernard Hopkins the rest is “history”. Click here to read article
WHERE ARE THE BILLBOARDS AND ARE THEY WORKING?
S. Phillly * Darby * Bridgeton * Camden City * Vineland * Corner of Williamstown and Sicklerville Roads in Winslow near Mongan’s Gas Station. More are planned soon for more locations all throughout S. Jersey and Philadelphia
The $50 Neuter Your Pit billboards were put up in May, 2011.
From May-September, 2011 there was a 68% increase in this spay neuter program up from this same program with no billboards from last year May-September, 2010.
We know the boards are working.
HOW DO I BECOME A SPONSOR TO HELP STEM THE TIDE OF PIT BULL OVERPOPULATION AND EUTHANSIA?
For only $300! you or your company can have YOUR name on this provocative and effective advertisement to encourage owners of pit bulls to get their animals spayed or neutered. More boards are planned for all over S. Jersey, and Philadelphia.
Simple as:
Contact NJAFA (info@njafa.org or 856 788 0911)
Tell us if you have a preference for a board location
You send NJ Aid for Animals a check for $300
You see your board in your location (if available or let us pick a location for you)
It works like this:
NJAFA picks an area that has a high concentration of pit bulls based on statistics of impound facilities.
NJAFA then lets our Outdoor Advertisers know of the area and if there is a board available, we contract for the board.
Every time we change the sponsorship it changes the “creative” and it costs $l50.00.
It is another $l50 for a four week period for that one board.
So for a low cost of just $300 YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS OR COMPANY CAN SPONSOR A BOARD!!!
IF YOU LIVE IN ANOTHER STATE WE WILL GIVE YOU PERMISSION TO USE THIS BOARD. WHY REINVENT THE WHEEL?ALL YOU NEED DO IS:
FIND A BILLBOARD COMPANY THAT WILL WORK WITH YOU (WE WILL TELL YOU HOW WE DID IT)
A LOW COST CLINIC
A SPONSOR FOR YOUR BOARD
