First of all I would like to thank you for taking an interest in our blog. You may or may not know about what Oxfam does but we hope to be able to make more people aware and possibly support the organization. We also hope that if you didn’t already agree with what Oxfam does we hope to have changed that.
After reading our blog we hope that you have come around to our way of thinking and support in what they do. An example of something they do would be…
As you probably know, a little while ago there was a horrific earthquake devastating millions of lives in Haiti. Oxfam had helped to save over 420,000 earthquake survivors in Haiti. They provided them with clean water and sanitation, education, shelter and support. Several months on and there are continuing to help provide these people with an income and continuing the services they provided while working to rebuild their communities. We think that Oxfam is an inspirational organization that helps many people who are in difficult situations. A few examples of these are:
• Climate change
• Conflict and Natural disaster victims
• Health.
• Education.
• Debt and Aid.
• Gender equality.
• Rights.
• Trade.
• Global economical crisis.
Despite the broad amount of help Oxfam covers, we are focusing on child poverty. We feel very strongly about this issue and would like to do everything we can to help them. We think that everyone deserves an amazing childhood and when you live in poverty, this just doesn’t happen. Children have to slave away doing chores and trying to earn money so that they might be able to eat that day. Oxfam strive to help them but they can’t do it without our help. Again we would like to thank you for reading and taking an interest in our blog, It would also be very much appreciated if you could please take some time to post answers to a few questions for us.
1 Had you heard of Oxfam before reading this blog?
2 Do you now feel more informed about these issues?
3 Would you be prepared to make a donation to Oxfam?
