Woodhull Announces Sponsors for 2016 Sexual Freedom Summit

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Woodhull Freedom Foundation has announced a list of sponsors for their 2016 Sexual Freedom Summit, to be held Aug. 4-7 at the Hilton Alexandria Mark Center in Alexandria, Va. near Washington, D.C.

“Woodhull’s Sexual Freedom Summit is the premier information and skill building conference for sexual freedom,” said Ricci Levy, president and CEO of Woodhull Freedom Foundation. “With a growing impact of social media — our 2015 conference shared over 282,000 Twitter feed imprints — the Summit provides a great opportunity for visibility not only for attendees, but also, for decision makers and thought leaders throughout the world. We thank our sponsors who have made this year’s Summit possible.”

This year’s sponsors include NJOY, Walters Law Group, the Pleasure Chest, the Freeman Foundation, Tantus, Gilead and the Free Speech Coalition as well as the Urology Health Store, Chaturbate, Sliquid, Doxy, B-Vibe, the Female Health Company, Grooby Productions and Sex Positive World.

Mandy Farsace, director of the Woodhull Sexual Freedom Summit, said, “Supporting the Summit demonstrates the commitment to being a part of real and positive social change, and the commitment to advancing and respecting sexual rights as human rights. By being a sponsor, organizations are letting the communities they do business with know that their company’s values and vision are focused on the key issues impacting its customers and constituents. We look forward to hearing from any and all companies and organizations interested in sponsoring this year’s Summit.”

The Sexual Freedom Summit is sponsored annually by corporations, regional and national organizations and sexuality product manufacturers and retailers. For more information on sponsorship, visit this link.

The Hilton Alexandria Mark Center is located at 5000 Seminary Rd.
