Usage of sliders for non-commercial use

So I know that sliders are bad and there's a thing called banner blindness and read couple of studies saying that people don't interact with them at all. However I'm working on an "About Us" page where the client would like to implement the idea of having a slider with qualities of the company. I proposed an idea to go with a simple animation instead like in this example. My question is which one is better for non-commercial use on a site without ads, banner or animation?
