Let Your Worries Go

Let Your Worries GoOne of the Northwestern Mutual projects I work on is Let Your Worries Go campaign. It is a fun project which caught a nice online viral buzz. The idea behind it is more grandeur than just a fun, highly interactive online experience. In this online experience you can virtually get rid of your worries by launching those using different vehicles. In addition to your personal financial worries, you can choose to launch societal worries like world hunger, natural disasters, illness, and health and fitness.

So, what’s the grandeur idea?

Northwestern Mutual Foundation will distribute $1,000,000 to causes that address your societal worries. The more times your worry is selected between now and December 31, 2008, the more money the related cause will receive. Selected causes are listed on this page.
