 GYT on Tour 

Posted on by

All month, GYT and Greater Than AIDS are joining forces to get the word out about HIV testing with  Be Greater Than AIDS: Get Yourself Tested Month.   As part of the outreach efforts to encourage  HIV testing among young people, GYT is going on tour with Emmis Communications in Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles.

At Q101’s Jamboree concert in Chicago and Hot 97’s Summer Jam in New York, concert goers stopped by the GYT booth for free giveaways, like GYT condoms with information about where to get tested, upgraded tickets for taking the GYT mobile quiz, t-shirts designed by Team GYT member Jeff Staples, and a custom bike designed by Team GYT member Ube Urban.   Check out more photos here.

And keep an eye out for GYT at Power 106’s Powerhouse concert in LA on June 25th!

Rise up, stand tall and know your HIV status.  GYT today!

The Take Action Tour, run by Hopeless Records, features bands Silverstein, Texas in July, Polar Bear Club, The Swellers, and Bayside, who will perform in cities across the country while also promoting STD testing and safe sex.

Additionally, the Take Action Tour will host special events in select markets with free testing, testing vouchers and appearances from the band to talk about how they live GYT. Even if you’re not in a tour city, it’s still easy to GYT- just text your zip code to GYTNOW (498669) or scroll down to enter your zip code in the GYT testing center locator.
