What is a Public Service Announcement? If you don't know what it is, Google it. In your own words, now tell me what it is? What are they used for? Can you recall an example of a PSA you've seen before?

A Public Service Announcement is making a commercial about a very important cause. They make these to try and provide awareness for certain problems around the world. A PSA that I have seen before is the Mesothelioma commercial about soldiers trying to get medical attention after they have served.  Also I have seen a PSA about Unicef, helping starving children who have malaria stay alive, and be able to fight to stay alive. These PSA's are there to provide those victims with a sense of compassion and help. The money or time donated to helping these people is very little, so many say,"Why not help a child by giving them $0.50 a day?" or," help this soldier recover after they have just defend our country."
