Les Dames call themselves “a drag troupe of comic entertainers.” They have been entertaining crowds since 1994 to raise money for Coachella Valley charities, from the Special Care Unit at Desert Regional Medical Center to the AIDS Assistance Program, P.A.W.S. and Desert AIDS Project.

This group of tremendously talented men, with their generosity and leadership, have raised approximately one million dollars for local charities. Not only do they donate their time and talent for every benefit at which they perform, they also donate every dollar raised to charity, without recovering costs for their costumes or productions – which are elaborate, to say the least.

Les Dames’ performances are both inspirational and humorous. Yet behind the entertainment is a commitment to a long-term course of action and a heartfelt pledge to effect change, generate action, educate the public and secure financial resources for those most in need.

Desert AIDS Project at the Greenburg-Peet Family Center is the organization in our community where people living with HIV and AIDS can receive comprehensive services to help manage HIV disease. D.A.P. offers primary medical care through its Wells Fargo HIV Health Center. The Project provides widespread education and prevention services for schools, civic organizations, businesses, churches and health organizations throughout the communities it serves. Confidential HIV testing is also provided. For more information, call 760-323-2118.
