The World Wildlife Fund is launching a campaign to increase awareness of conservation and raise funds. The campaign will include three strategies: 1) A global Earth Day event partnering with Walmart, encouraging employee participation and donations. 2) A school program where children sponsor endangered animals and schools/students receive recognition for contributions. 3) A sustainable textiles initiative where companies sponsor awareness and garments have tags promoting donations. Tactics include Walmart employee clean-up events on Earth Day and offering gift packages for schools/families that join the endangered species program by August. The budget allocates $350k total, including $8k for a donations website, $50k for marketing, and $250k for a TV commercial. The campaign
