In October 2006, Chris DeWolfe, CEO of MySpace, led the Rock For Darfur campaign, a concert series touring across the United States showcasing big-name bands devoted to raising funds - and consciousness - for the Darfur crisis. A portion of the proceeds will go toward the Oxfam America's Sudan Crisis Relief and Rehabilitation Fund. According to their Web site's description, Oxfam America is "an international relief and development organization that works to end poverty, hunger and injustice."
