Hey Condomers :)
this semester has been full of ups and downs for me mostly but thats more personal. as for the program its been a HIT. With all our distribution sites and our condom card program we r really spreading our supply thin but i think it has reached a point that we are really fond of. lol anymore programs and they will have to send us a double shipment :D. sadly our supply for the student entertainment group ran out and i think that program is about to be shutdown. but thats just a sneaking hunch we will have to see what next semester holds. oh budget cuts how i love them (not really).
thats it for the updates thought
stay sexy

Hey Fellow Condomers (a term I coined to describe condom distributers on my campus, so far its spreading).
In the past academic year my Wellness Educator peers and I have been doing a lot with our condom supply. We used 208 condoms in our sexual health and wellness education programs that we held on our campus!!! We were also able to restock all 4 of our distribution sights on campus (Rainbow Center [GLBTQAI Resource Center], Women's Center, Wellness Center and Residence Hall Condom Card Campaign [the 1 I talked about last post]) with a total of 654 CONDOMS!!! Apart from that we also distributed 5 condoms to students that stopped by our office and have partnered up with Friday Nights, a student recreation and entertainment group on campus that puts on amazing events every Friday. They have allowed us to have a distribution bowl at their events and in total we have distributed 60 condoms at their events so far (a small number I know but it was a spur of the moment idea that did not have any promotion). The remaining condoms have been used for our summer programs and as of right now are keeping us afloat till our next box arrives. Well condomers that's it from MSU for now, see you all when the next record sheet hits my inbox!

Ok so it has been forever since I have been back on the site :( but u know floods, blizzards, twisters and school keep me pretty busy. But ok read my profile and it should tell u all about me, I think. But here is the rundown! My name is Shaun I go to school in MN. Cold MN. I am a wellness educator at MSU (Minnesota State University) and I am super excited for my box of 1000 condoms!!!! So this is what went down this condom year (yes I just invented a new calendar). From the 500 condoms 25 were used for education programs. I know it sounds like not a lot but that’s cause up here people r kind of creped out by the preverbal idea about the spelling of the word SEX, yes I know it’s that bad. Then we donated 25 to our Wellness Center on campus so they could have some by the front desk for student to take. We also distributed a couple in the dorms. That was kind of a personal request from people in the dorms. Actually it made me really happy because they had the courage to ask me and now know where they can get condoms! During National HIV Awareness week we distributed 150 condoms all over campus! and at "A Boy, A Girl, A Virus" which was a presentation heal in our student union where a married couple came and talked to students about their challenge living with AIDS. One has AIDS and the other spouse did not but it was great! In January we had a testicular cancer awareness table at the Wellness Center and distributed 40 then. Finally to end up I worked with my campuses housing department and health center and we created a C-Card program, from now on a select group of Resident Assistants and Apartment Assistants will be providing free condoms within the residence halls and campus apartments!!! The program called "Condom Cards: On a Door on a Floor Near You!" and that first distribution was 253 condoms!!!! and we have gotten all good reviews. So it’s a good day!!!
