Chile to Kili: Driving change from the seat of a bicycle
The goal: Ride from Chile to Kilimanjaro
Elvis Munis, 25, of Kilimanjaro, Tanzania, is bicycling around the world to raise awareness about environmental issues and funds for scholarships to support students in Africa to study resource management in college.
The distance of this trip is about 80 000kms or 50 000m and will traverse some 41 countries completely unsupported.
Elvis’s journey started in Santiago, Chile and takes him through Peru, Ecuador, Brazil, Mexico, USA, Canada, Alaska, across the Bearing Sea (by any means) into Russia, Mongolia, China, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, across the Caspian Sea into Iran, Turkey, Bulgaria, Serbia, Croatia, Austria, Germany, France, Spain, Morocco, Western Sahara, Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Congo, Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya, and ending at the foot of Kilimanjaro, Tanzania—Elvis's home.
Elvis, and any riders who dare to join him, must locate and carry their own food, shelter, and resources throughout the trip. Most nights will be spent camping in tents or staying with local contacts.
If you’re on his route and can offer a place to stay or a hot meal, drop us a line or if you want to have a semi-real-time chat with Elvis, or just tell him "good luck", post a little something here.
Inspiration:
This ride was inspired by the Gandhi’s famous quotation- “Be the change you want to see in the world.”
This has been a long-time favorite quote of both event organizers and triggered a conversation on the shores of Zanzibar that lead to the creation of this life-altering event.
Change must come from the inside. Elvis, a 25 year old Tanzanian naturalist and student, identifies one of the major problems in his country as the lack of opportunity for Tanzanians to obtain the education necessary to manage their own natural resources. Tanzania’s economy is dependent on conservation-based tourism, yet management decisions and safari companies tend to be run by foreigners. This ride will raise awareness about the lack of educational opportunities and therefor lack of upward mobility afforded to Tanzanian citizens.
By volunteering to bike around the world in an effort to raise money for a scholarship program for conservation students like himself, Elvis truly is “being” the change he wants to see.

Education Transforming Lives
The Wellspring Foundation for Education is a Christian organization working with Rwandans to empower a new generation of leaders through education that transforms lives.
There is currently a window of opportunity to help Rwanda overcome its huge educational gap and accomplish its goal of overcoming extreme poverty and transitioning towards a service based economy by the year 2020.
Today Rwandans are still working to overcome the legacy of the 1994 genocide. Quality education is a key to this process. Yet many children learn in overcrowded classrooms with 60 to 100 students. Teachers lack certification, ongoing training, resources, and adequate pay. Morale is low and absenteeism is rampant. It’s an overwhelming situation. But there is hope.
Wellspring is working with Rwandans to educate and empower a new generation through education that transforms lives.
Since 2004, Wellspring has offered training to hundreds of teachers, established a Professional Development Centre, developed a model Christian school with 350 students called the Wellspring Academy, supported the growth of the 800 member Association of Committed Teachers (ACT) Rwanda, and launched an innovative solution for school transformation called Whole School Development.
Learn more about these initiatives, what we are working toward in our Vision 2012, and how you can get involved. Visit www.thewellspringfoundation.com to find out more.

Kadhafi’s Africa: The Untold Story
THE MANY LIES TOLD BY THE WEST IN THEIR WAR AGAINST LIBYA
*A- THE REAL REASONS FOR THE WAR IN LIBYA*
1- The first African satellite RASCOM 1
It was Libya’s Kadhafi who gave all of Africa its first real revolution in modern times: by ensuring universal coverage of
the continent via telephone, television, radio-broadcast and the many other applications such as telemedicine and
long-distance learning; for the first time in history, a low-cost connection became available across the continent, and
even into rural areas thanks to a bridging WMAX system.
The story begins in 1992 when 45 African countries created the RASCOM organization to acquire an African satellite in
order to bring down the cost of communications across the continent.
At that time, calling from or to Africa had the most expensive call rates in the world, since there was a surcharge of
500 million dollars which Europeans collected annually on telephone conversations even within some African countries,
just to transmit voice messages via European satellites like Intelsat. An African satellite would barely cost 400 millions
dollars payable once and thus avoiding the 500 million annual rental fees. Which banker wouldn’t finance such a
project?
But the difficult part of the equation remained unsettled: how does a beggar gain their freedom from exploitation by
their master by borrowing money from this same master to achieve this?
And so, the World Bank, the IMF, USA, the European Union had needlessly been bilking these countries for over 14
years.
It was in 2006 that Kadhafi put an end to the agony of senseless begging from those supposed benefactors in the West
who only grant loans at predatory rates; the Libyan leaders put 300 million dollars on the table, the African
Development Bank put 50 million, the West African Development Bank contributed 27 million and it is thus, Africa has
owned its very own communications satellite since December 26th 2000;
The very first communications satellite in its history. In the meantime, China and Russia have jumped in, this time by
donating their own technology which allowed the launching of more new satellites; South-Africa, Nigeria, Angola,
Algerian and even a second African satellite was launched in July of 2010.
And by 2020, we are expecting the very first satellite which would be 100% African and built on African soil,
specifically in Algeria. This satellite is expected to be amongst the best in the world, but would cost ten times
cheaper, a true achievement.
This is how a simple gesture worth 300 millions dollars can change the lives on an entire continent.
Kadhafi’s Libya had cost the West not only the 500 million dollars annually but billions of dollars from debt and interest
which this debt would have generated ad infinitum and exponentially, and contributed towards sustaining the obscure
system which continues to rob Africa blind.
2- African Monetary Fund, African Central Bank, African Investment Bank
The 30 billion dollars which M. Obama confiscated belongs to the Libyan Central Bank and was earmarked as the Libyan
contribution toward the finalization of the African Federation in its three keystone phases:
The African Investment Bank to be based in Sitre-Libya, The creation in 2011 of the African Monetary Fund with a
startup capital of 42 billion dollars with Yaoundé as its headquarters, the African Central Bank with its headquarters in
Abuja-Nigeria from which, the first issuance of legal tender would signal the end of the CFA Franc through which Paris
has been able to pillage some African countries for over 50 years. From this we can understand France’s grudge against
Kadhafi.
The African Monetary Fund would supplant in each and every way the activities of the International Monetary Fund on
African soil – a role which, using barely 25 billion dollars in capital, the IMF had been able to bring an entire continent
to its knees through questionable privatization policies, as witnessed by the reality of forcing African countries to
trade-in one public monopoly for a private monopoly.
It was these same Western countries which came knocking at the door trying to become members of the African
Monetary Fund (AMF) and its was via a unanimous vote of 16-17 in December 2010 in Yaoundé that Africans rejected
this proposition, enshrining that only African countries would be members of the AMF.
It therefore seems obvious that after Libya, the Western coalition will declare its next war against Algeria, since, in
addition to its enormous energy resources, that country has financial reserves exceeding 150 Billion Euros.
This is much coveted by all the countries which are now bombing Libya all of whom have the same things in common,
they are all practically bankrupt, the USA alone has 14.000 billion dollars in debt, France, Great Britain and Italy each
have 2.000 Billion in public debt while all the 46 countries of Sub
