LOS ANGELES, Oct. 9 (UPI) -- The networking site MySpace announced that it is sponsoring "Rock for Darfur," a fundraising project including concerts across the United States.
At least 20 concerts are scheduled on Oct. 21. Part of the ticket sales will be donated to Oxfam relief programs in Sudan and Chad.
MySpace also plans a public service commercial featuring Samuel L. Jackson to be shown in movie theaters in October and has created a "Rock for Darfur" page on its site with video footage from George Clooney's trip to Darfur and footage from an upcoming documentary, "The Devil Came on Horseback."
"The crisis in Darfur is a global concern and as a global community we have a responsibility to take action," said Chris DeWolfe, CEO of MySpace. "MySpace's reach gives us an extraordinary opportunity to spread the word and empower individuals to help address the horrors in Darfur."
