American Council on Education Case Study<\/h2>\n\t\n\t\tGalvanizing Support for Affordable Higher Education<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nThe American Council on Education partnered with Social Driver on the #DoublePell digital advocacy campaign to galvanize voters and urge Congress to double the maximum Pell Grant. Working on a tight timeline, our team launched the #DoublePell visual brand and website. The result: More than 5,000 constituents contacted their members of Congress, sending a clear message about strong bipartisan support for higher education. <\/span><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n

But the grant’s buying power has plummeted in the last 50 years, threatening access to affordable higher education.
The American Council on Education (ACE) wanted to galvanize voters of all ages and urge Congress to double the maximum Pell Grant. As a membership organization, ACE usually mobilizes higher education leaders around public policy and innovative practices. But with the #DoublePell campaign, they wanted to engage a much broader audience, ranging from Gen Z students to college presidents.
ACE engaged its longtime creative partner, Social Driver, to launch a “positively alarmist” digital advocacy campaign. #DoublePell needed to issue a clarion call to action, anchored in a compelling visual brand and website.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n <\/div>\r\nSOLUTION<\/h4>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nLighting a Fire in Advocates of All Ages<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nOn a tight timeline, Social Driver quickly pivoted from client intake to brand development. We crafted a bold, playful brand board that nudged ACE into new creative territory. Our team worked closely with ACE throughout the design journey, reflecting their vision through rapid iteration and developing a full suite of creative assets.
The campaign centerpiece is a highly accessible website that invites visitors to “take action” or “find resources” with buttons placed prominently above the fold. DoublePell.org integrates with VoterVoice to facilitate messaging to members of Congress and amplify the campaign.
As part of the #DoublePell social media toolkit, customized badges incentivize users to contact their members of Congress and spread the word on social media. The website assets, including downloadable briefs, appeal to audiences from high school students to college presidents. The result is a fresh, energetic brand platform that lights a fire in advocates of all ages.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n

The sheer volume of messages sent a clear message to lawmakers about strong bipartisan support for higher education.<\/span>
ACE stakeholders were thrilled with the results, which have laid the groundwork for future successful advocacy campaigns.

The campaign centerpiece is a highly accessible website that invites visitors to “take action” or “find resources” with buttons placed prominently above the fold. DoublePell.org integrates with VoterVoice to facilitate messaging to members of Congress and amplify the campaign.
As part of the #DoublePell social media toolkit, customized badges incentivize users to contact their members of Congress and spread the word on social media. The website assets, including downloadable briefs, appeal to audiences from high school students to college presidents. The result is a fresh, energetic brand platform that lights a fire in advocates of all ages.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n
