The Advertising Council, commonly known as the Ad Council, is an American non-profit organization that distributes public service announcements on behalf of various sponsors, including non-profit organizations and agencies of the United States government.
The Advertising Council generally does not produce public service advertisements itself, rather, it acts as a coordinator and distributor. The Advertising Council accepts requests from sponsor organizations for advertising campaigns that focus on particular social issues. To qualify, an issue must be non-partisan and have national relevance. The Advertising Council then assigns each campaign to a volunteer advertising agency that produces the actual advertisements. Finally, the Advertising Council distributes the finished advertisements to media outlets.
The Advertising Council was incorporated in February 1942 as the War Advertising Council for the purpose of mobilizing the advertising industry in support of the war effort. Early campaigns encouraged the purchase of war bonds and conservation of war materials. Rosie the Riveter was developed by the WAC as part of its “Women in War Jobs” campaign. The long-running Forest Fire Prevention campaign, with Smokey Bear as its famous mascot, also began as a war campaign in response to the fear that Japanese submarines might start forest fires by shelling the west coast of the United States.
After the conclusion of the Second World War the War Advertising Council changed its name to the Advertising Council and shifted its focus to peacetime campaigns. According to documents from the Council’s archives, the group aimed to enhance public opinion of and co-opt liberal opposition to advertising by using it to promote liberal and patriotic causes.
Famous campaigns include the “Crying Indian” anti-pollution campaign for Keep America Beautiful; the United Negro College Fund campaign, with its slogan “A mind is a terrible thing to waste”; the McGruff campaign with its slogan “Take a bite out of crime” for the National Crime Prevention Council (in conjunction with the U.S. Department of Justice); and the “Friends don’t let friends drive drunk” campaign for the U.S. Department of Transportation.

Fitzroy Falls is a village in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales, Australia, in Wingecarribee Shire. It was previously known as Yarrunga, and is now named after the 81 metre waterfall located there.
First discovered in the early 1800s by Charles Throsby, Fitzroy Falls (the waterfall, in Morton National Park), was named after the New South Wales Governor Fitzroy during his visit to the beautiful area in the 1850s. While a town was planned for the area in the 1860s little development occurred. With the production of motor vehicles Fizroy Falls became, and still remains, a popular stopping point for tourists traveling towards the Highlands.
The population is about 500 including the villages of Avoca and Myra Vale.
