SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – Several leading streaming services have committed to support the Boys & Girls Clubs of Puerto Rico by donating inventory for a Spanish-language public service announcement. The PSA, created by Omnicom’s BBDO San Juan, will run on the Spanish language services of LG Ads, Netflix, Roku, TelevisaUnivision, Vizio and Comcast’s Xumo. The program was first announced last month at the Beet.TV executive retreat.

TelevisaUnivision, LG Ads and Roku are among the companies supporting the Boys & Girls Clubs of Puerto Rico by providing inventory to run 30-second spots on their Spanish digital platforms. It’s part of an effort to raise awareness and funds for a group that plays an essential role in the live of tens of thousands of Puerto Ricans. The campaign is designed to reach the many people of Puerto Rican descent living on the mainland.

The former German Yahoo marketing and sales executive stood up the wildly successful digital industry expo DMEXCO in Cologne in 2008, during the financial crisis, eventually drawing the global digerati, including Facebook’s Sheryl Sandberg and nearly the entire digital industry. In 2021, in the aftermath of the pandemic, he launched his next act, POSSIBLE, an expo and conference in Miami Beach which last year drew 5,000 attendees.
