Je pédale depuis trois ans maintenant (déjà 14000 bornes) pour promouvoir le don du sang dans le cadre de l'associaiton '"Les voyageurs au grand coeur". En avril 2008, j'aurai pédalé près de 30000 km et compte faire une pause de quelques années.
Alors je suis à la recherche de cyclos qui voudraient associer leur voyage à cette noble et si importante cause.
Si vous prévoyez un voyage de quelques jours ou quelques mois et que vous souhaitez promouvoir le don du sang, alors faites moi signe, j'en serai ravi ! Il s'avère que notre action, depuis trois ans, a permis d'apporter une énorme communication sur le don du sang en France, en Europe, en Ex Yougoslavie, en Nouvelle-Zélande et bientôt en Amérique du sud. Venez apporter votre pierre au monument !
J'attends de vos nouvelles, et aussi vos questions ou autres interrogations !
Cyclopédiquement

A venir : 10000 km entre Lima et Ushuaîa...
Tu pourrais me donner quelques précisions stp ? Parce qu´avec mon amoureux on prévoit de faire le tour de l´Amérique en vélo (et en stop), et si tu veux, on continue ta promo sans problèmes !!
J´attends de tes nouvelles, et quand-même, chapeau, t´est bien courageux !
Merci pour ta réponse.
Eh bien en fait le principe est simple. Cela fait déjà trois ans que je pédale, par intermittence, pour promouvoir le don du sang. Ancien transfusé c'est une manière de remercier les donneurs et de montter o combien ce geste est important.
A cahcun de mes voyages est associé une forte communication et des colelctes de sang. Chaque voyage se fait dans le cadre de l'association "Les voyageurs au grand coeur". Nous bénéficions du soutien du rotary club et d'une certaine légitimité à présent.
Ainsi, si vous souhaitez voyager pour les voyageurs au grand coeur, nous mettrons à disposition le site internet, visité par environ 200 personnes par jour, ainsi que les contacts rotary et notre expérience. Cela nécessite de votre côté une certaine rigueur dans l'itinéraire, car le principe est d'organiser des collectes de sang, et pour cela il faut prévoir les dates longtemps à l'avance. Cela dit, lors du dernier périple, j'aais prévu 3800 km et j'en ai finalement fait 5300, ce qui montre que le voyage reste tout de même souple...
Voilà, j'espère que j'ai répondu à tes questions. Pédaler pour une telle cause rend le voyage d'autnt plus beau et excitant, et la communiaction que l'on offre pour le don du sang est réelle. Pour exemple, en Nouvelle-Zélande, j'ai eu plus de 40 interviews sur 40 jours de voyage... Auttna dire que tous les kiwis en ont entendu parler !
A bientôt
Julien
My name is Valerie and I live in France. I’m a street artist—I perform street shows that blend circus and clowning. I also work as a clown in hospitals and retirement homes in France.
I’m planning to spend two months in Morocco from January 19, 2027, to March 13, 2027. I’ll be traveling in a truck, so I’ll be mobile.
I’d love to offer my time as a volunteer to perform a show that’s suitable for all audiences (kids and adults) in village squares. I’d also like to visit hospitals and orphanages as a clown.
My route will start in Nador, then head down to Merzouga, before making my way to the coast either above or below Agadir. Toward the end of my trip, I’ll return to Zagora and Merzouga before leaving from either Nador or Tangier.
I already have contacts in Merzouga and Zagora. Next, I’d like to head toward the coast above or below Agadir, and I’m looking for contacts (associations, orphanages, hospitals) in that area or along my route.
Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.

My question might seem a bit out of place in a "travel" forum, but I’m giving it a shot anyway.
I’m thinking about sponsoring a child in Vietnam.
After some online research, I’ve found a lot of organizations that offer this, but I’m struggling to make a choice.
Could anyone guide me in making my decision?
Thanks in advance and have a great day.

I’m a volunteer leader at a youth center (MJC), and we’ve been deeply moved by everything happening in Madagascar—extreme poverty, endangered animals, deforestation, and so on. Plus, one of our teens has a Malagasy friend, so our group wants to travel there next year.
Throughout this year, they’ve planned fundraisers to collect donations (sheets, dish towels, schoolbooks, hygiene products, etc.) and funds to cover their trip and stay.
They’re really motivated and generous—they already volunteer in schools and senior centers, and they’re always welcomed warmly.
But so far, they haven’t found any organizations in Madagascar willing to host them for two weeks (orphanages, schools, animal protection parks, etc.).
Does anyone know of any contacts, please?
Looking forward to your replies. Have a great evening!
After 8 months of volunteering in Tanzania at a center for street children, I’d like to go back for a year in the same kind of role—this time in Burkina. So I’m looking for contacts in this field, in Ouaga or elsewhere. I’m *super* motivated! It’s been over two years since I got back from Tanzania, and I’m starting to feel restless!
Thanks so much!!
Emmanuelle.
Solidafrica is a recognized humanitarian association of general interest. We donate wheelchairs in Africa. We currently have 2 wheelchairs that we would like to give to our partner, the Benin Handisport Federation. If you're traveling to Benin, alone or with someone, we could give you one of these 2 wheelchairs (or both). Out of the 40 kg of luggage you're allowed, a wheelchair will only take up less than half. Our partner can pick it up at Cotonou Airport...
Help us give away at least one of these wheelchairs, turning your trip into a solidarity and humanitarian action.
Don't hesitate to ask us for more information.

We've already done this through the VoyageForum site, and everything went very smoothly. We're present at departure from one of the Paris airports, just in case.
Hi,
I’m interested in humanitarian missions—want to explore and help others while showing my kids how things work elsewhere and pitching in.
Looking for advice.
Hello, we’d like to travel as a family to Madagascar (2 parents, 2 kids aged 10 and 12). A first trip over 15 years ago completely amazed and moved me with its beauty, kindness, and life experiences—but also its poverty and hardship. That’s why I think it’s possible to introduce our kids to this island while also doing something useful through volunteering. The window is short—15 days in March 2020—which means avoiding the north and east of the island due to cyclones and focusing on the south instead. Some ecovolunteering projects exist online, but the cost is sometimes prohibitive, and kids are rarely accepted. Do you have any ideas or contacts? Thanks in advance!
