Cycling against the Darfur Genocide and couchsurfing along the way

I have been an enthusiasi member of couchsurfing since 2005 and next week, I am going to start a 600 kilometers bike ride in the south of France. I am raising awareness about the genocide in Darfur and funds for Darfur refugees. Individuals have been sponsoring money to a non-profit called Global Grassroots, which works in Refugee camps in Chad, in honor of the kilometers that I will ride. I want to continue to raise funds or this worthy cause! I will be couchsurfing during my bike trip and I have already had many generous CSers agree to host me along the route.
