A Heart for Africa: A humanitarian & sporting challenge

THE ORIGINS OF THE PROJECT

How was the Un Coeur pour l'Afrique association born?

A SICKNESS

10 years ago, Ludovic Chetail was diagnosed with an insufficiency
severe heart disease that can progress at any time. Past the dread of
the announcement, Ludovic, helped by a competent medical team and with
the support of those close to him, learns to redefine his priorities and above all
to adapt their daily life to their illness.
Thanks to his determination and appropriate medical care, he overcomes
this test and can today continue the practice of his two
passions: football and enduro.

SHARING

As the months go by, Ludovic realizes how lucky he is
benefited, in particular in the rapid management from the first
symptoms and therefore wishes to share it with those who have not
this opportunity. In these African countries, health problems
related to the shortage of care are numerous. Over the course of conversations, a
a slightly crazy project then germinates in his head.

AWARENESS

This awareness led him to design a somewhat crazy project
with the support of his friend Carlos ALVES: put their passion for
enduro at the service of a humanitarian cause by covering +10
km on a motorbike, without assistance, to reach Benin from Clermont-
Ferrand.

AN OBJECTIVE

Raise funds to finance the transfer, the reception and the operation
in Clermont Ferrand of African children suffering from pathologies
heart disease that cannot be treated in their country.

Today, A heart for Africa has signed a partnership with the association L'Auvergne for a child!

In 20 years, Auvergne pour un enfant, an association chaired by Professor Jean-René LUSSON, has welcomed and cared for 184 children from 22 countries suffering from various infections,
mostly heart surgeries. 52 host families contributed.

Un Coeur pour l'Afrique now represents an additional link in this humanitarian chain to give these children with heart defects a chance to have access to appropriate care in France. The challenge for the association and our pilots?

• +10 km on a motorcycle without assistance
• 30 days - 3 pilots
• 11 countries crossed
• in 600 Transalp and 700 Tenere

➡ COLLECT a maximum of donations to improve local medical conditions and allow the operation of one or more children,
➡ TO GO MEET health professionals to identify local needs as closely as possible, which are very different from what we imagine, and children who have already been operated on to disseminate their
testimony.
➡ TAKE UP A SPORTS CHALLENGE in order to show that with the appropriate care it is possible to live normally with an illness and even to practice extreme sports.

DEPARTURE EXPECTED FEBRUARY 2023!

LUDOVIC CHETAIL

Ludovic, better known by the nickname of Loulou, is in everyday life a 49-year-old logistics manager. Whole character with a big heart, this Auvergne is very involved in everything he
undertakes. Evidenced by its investment in the associative world, the sports world of football and enduro. Faithful in friendship, Ludovic likes to share his passions and pass on his generosity to his friends. Behind this strong personality hides a sensitive and endearing man who likes to live life to the fullest. There is no doubt that he will put all his energy into carrying out his project.

CARLOS ALVES

Carlos, originally from Portugal, arrived in France 20 years ago, self-taught, he knew how to make his way and succeed in life. Beneath this maintenance technician hides an assertive character who knows how to defend his ideas. Patient, generous and thoughtful, Carlos adapts to any situation. His unfailing perseverance leads him to carry out
all his projects. He will be a force in this humanitarian and sporting challenge.

Max, a store manager, regularly swaps his salesman's costume for that of an adventurer. Passionate about travel and discovery, what particularly drives him is to explore new horizons, unknown lands, meet people, reach out to them and share their daily life in all simplicity and humility.
As the great lover of Africa that he is, Max has accumulated thousands of kilometers on the handlebars of his motorcycle and intends to continue his wanderings on this continent. At the beginning of 2022 Max joined the association Un Coeur pour l'Afrique and for a good cause broke his motto "the solitary and united adventure", a new challenge for him who travels alone with his maps and his compass. So at the beginning of 2023 heading for Benin with Loulou and Carlos!

HUMANITARIAN OBJECTIVES
