Fondos Unidos de Puerto Rico (United Way of Puerto Rico) promoted the launch of their web site, Entreparedes.org, with a graffiti advertising campaign highlighting the realities of domestic violence. Giant stickers using the phrases “Ana te amo” (Ana I love You) and “María te amo (Maria I love You) were strategically placed in places with high pedestrian traffic. Approaching the graffiti uncovered the reality behind the expressions of affection: the letters were composed of an endlessly repeated phrase: “I hit you”. The other one hid the message “I insult you” in its letters. A small sign below the grafitti provided the message, “Abuse is hidden”.
