MaleFlixxx.tv announced their Surf Doggie sponsorship of the fifth Palm Springs edition of the Bad Boys Pool Party benefit, which will be held on May 7 in support of the LA Shanti Project.
“We proudly support the goals of the Bad Boy’s Pool Party and the LA Shanti Project and are excited to join these organizations in supporting our community,” said Eric Johnson, president of Sureflix Digital Distribution, operators of MaleFlixxx.tv.
The Bad Boy’s Pool Party began in Los Angeles in 1998. The core theme of the party is to promote safe and healthy sexuality and allow members of the porn industry who support safe sex practices to give back to their community. Since then, the party has grown, moved to Palm Springs, and is raising money for the LA Shanti Project—a volunteer organization dedicated to educating and empowering individuals infected with HIV/AIDS and other life-threatening diseases.
In addition to their sponsorship, Will Clark USA, LA Shanti, and MaleFlixxx.tv have a Video-on-Demand (VoD) theatre partnership, which donates 10 percent of the gross proceeds from www.badboyspoolparty.tv to the LA Shanti Project.
Each year, supporting members within the gay adult industry gather together to raise money for this cause. One hundred percent of the proceeds of the party are donated to the LA Shanti Project. Over the past three years, $112,000 has been raised for this organization.
“The party has grown exponentially through the years as the event has gained strength and recognition in the gay porn industry as well as in the larger gay community,” said Will Clark, the creator and coordinator of the Bad Boys Pool Party. “I think that guests appreciate that the event is designed to make a direct financial impact on the benefiting organization. Operating costs are kept down so as to maximize the money that goes to keep programs running. In these times of less and less governmental money for AIDS organizations, we need to keep the doors to these agencies open.”
This year, Bad Boy’s is hosting 27 stars and seven dancers including Zak Spears, Peter Dixon, Kevin Kramer, Dino Philips, Sebastian James, Jacob Slater, and Johnny Law.
