Let’s work together to pass on to the next generation a world free of Aids.
This has been the LINK Endowment fund’s target for more than ten years.
Solidarity is more than ever necessary for our society. At the heart of this solidarity, you can find the link. Without it, nothing is possible.
The LINK endowment fund revolves around a notion of link. LINK gathers women and men of influence, executive managers, public or art stakeholders, all committed to rallying their network to raise funds and put an end to Aids by 2030. Clearly forward-looking, LINK relies on this high level network to rally major philanthropic support, through relevant solidarity projects.
The LINK Endowment fund chooses to donate all the funds raised to the AIDES organisation, the leader in the fight against HIV/Aids in Europe.
Being convinced that major individual donors or companies can play a key role in fighting HIV, we rally their support in order to fund targeted programs carried out by AIDES. The commitment of LINKERs, who are also donors and ambassadors of LINK projects, ensures funds are used in total transparency to finance AIDES programs.
Supporting LINK through your donations represents a real societal commitment to put an end to a public health issue: the HIV epidemic.

TESTING
(Saint-Denis Railway Station).
In France, nearly 30,000 people are living with HIV without knowing it. It is estimated that only 80% of people who are HIV-positive have been diagnosed. Yet we know that a person living with HIV who is receiving treatment poses no risk of transmitting the virus, and when all people infected with HIV have been tested and treated, the epidemic will die out on its own.
Today, it is essential to flatten the curve of infections. That’s why LINK aims to fund 40,000 tests per year, carried out by teams from the AIDES association. Since 2008, AIDES has been developing community-based rapid testing known as RDOT (Rapid Diagnostic Orientation Test), which allows individuals to know their serological status almost immediately, without judgment and in complete confidentiality.
Contribute with your support to massively expand testing, focusing first on vulnerable populations, for a future free of Aids.
PREVENTION
The objective: to develop sexual health centers throughout France wherever they are needed, in order to stop new HIV infections. Testing is the only gateway to treatment, and a person undergoing treatment no longer transmits HIV.
Located in the regions most affected by the virus —Paris, Marseille, Nice, and Montpellier— these centers, known as “SPOTs,” provide a comprehensive, community-based service offering medical support that includes testing, prescription, and follow-up of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) treatment, as well as overall care for the physical and mental health of people living with HIV.
Contributing to the development of SPOTs in France means breaking the curve of infection by improving access to testing, prevention tools, and healthcare. These are currently the most effective weapons to put an end to the virus. Through your donations, help fund their development.
Ending AIDS is possible — together and now.
INTERNATIONAL
the largest global HIV and STI testing initiative
The sharp decline since the beginning of 2025 in international funding for the fight against HIV/AIDS in the world’s poorest countries has created dire situations for people living with HIV and for those working to support them on the ground.
As a result, the benefits of past efforts are now under threat, with a real risk of the epidemic re-emerging. This is why, since 2025, LINK has dedicated part of the funds raised through the generosity of our donors to Coalition PLUS.
Coalition PLUS is a network of more than 100 community-based organizations, including AIDES, that are mobilizing for the health and rights of key populations in the response to HIV and hepatitis worldwide.
