Since 1996, in Paris, Les Caramels Fous, the LGBTQ musical comedy troupe, Équivox, the gay lesbian choir of Paris and Mélo'Men have been organising a big charity event called Les Voix contre le Sida (VCS). Each time, the profits are donated to associations involved in the fight against AIDS.

For this event, the beneficiary association was ACGLSF, the cultural association for deaf gays and lesbians in France. The Rainbow Symphony Orchestra also participated.
