What is a public service campaign?

• Public awareness campaigns are everywhere around
  us, from MADD Canadas advertisements on
  television to people who protest outside of
  abortion clinics and fur-coat factories. The
  purpose of a public awareness campaign is simple
  to inform a general public audience about a
  certain topic or issue. Sometimes, public
  awareness campaigns are overtly persuasive other
  times, public awareness campaigns simply aim to
  inform and enlighten.
