“We were thrilled to be able to participate in an event that educates people on the seriousness of a disease that already affects 60,000 people in Los Angeles County alone,” said Wet spokesperson Jennifer Martsolf. “Wet has a strong commitment to lifesaving sex education and by providing these kits and information, we are able to help educate people on the importance of safe sex and provide them with the tools they need to live a healthy sexual lifestyle.”
To encourage HIV testing, Test-Fest had 13 testing vans onsite. The Wet Safe Sex Kit that was provided contained a condom and a sample of Wet Platinum Premium Lubricant in a package printed with information regarding safe sex.
