 Safe Sex | STI | Contraception | STD

Did you know that every year in the U.S. there are 19 million new cases of STDs? That’s roughly the population of New York State!

I’m helping to spread the word about a new program that Trojan Condoms & MTV have just started called “Evolve One Evolve All”. The aim is to help people gain more awareness about sexual diseases and become more “evolved” in preventing them. The goal is to get people to interact enough to give away 1 million condoms.

For every comment left on a video on the site, Trojan will donate 1 condom. For every rating left on the site, another one. If someone takes the pledge or the quiz on the site, Trojan will donate 2 condoms. Every time the site is forwarded to a friend, Trojan will donate 3 condoms, and if you upload a video, Trojan will donate 5 condoms.

Just think of all the chances we have to reduce the spread of sexually transmitted disease just by sitting at our computers. You can tell how far along we are by looking at the counter on the site at evolveoneevolveall.com. If you do look, you will see we still have a ways to go.

This campaign already has support from great bands such as Aggrolites, All Time Low, Animo, Charlotte Sometimes, Cobra Starship, Everytime I Die, From First to Last, Gilmantera, Madina Lake, Protest the Hero, Reel Big Fish, Shwayze, TAT, The Academy Is…, & The Bronx & The Randles.
