Turn on TV (World AIDS Day) lead
Mail & Guardian, 27 Nov 2006: seven agencies including Ogilvy & Mather donated spots. Ogilvy office not specified, so it may not be New York; global, not US-only.
Global Media AIDS Initiative / MTV Staying Alive2006HIV/STICreative
National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign, Phase III (advertising contractor)
GAO-01-1017T: 'In December 1998, on behalf of ONDCP, HHS competitively awarded a cost-reimbursement contract to Ogilvy, with performance to begin in January 1999' (base year plus 4 option years); GAO found improper labor charges. Its main task was media planning and buying and reviewing ads from PDFA's volunteer agencies, so role is media rather than creative.

Research notes

Ogilvy Public Relations also ran CDC 'Screen for Life' colorectal screening from 1999 (government contract) — belongs with PR firms. Credits checked 2026-10-22 against fetched pages: ONDCP contract (GAO-01-1017T), prediabetes (NutritionInsight), Turn on TV (Mail & Guardian). Corrected 2026-10-22: ONDCP role strategy -> media and year 1998 -> 1999 (contract awarded Dec 1998, work began Jan 1999); prediabetes source moved from The Drum (blank page) to NutritionInsight, topic -> diabetes; Turn on TV source moved from a KFF briefing whose text no longer loads to Mail & Guardian. Removed CDC from notable clients (no Ogilvy New York CDC credit here).
