Community action

In key cities across the US, people are connecting with Oxfam America's global reach through the Oxfam Action Corps. Volunteers with the Oxfam Action Corps lead a coordinated charge to improve national legislation and deepen local community resources for fighting poverty and injustice.

We believe music can change the world. Do you? If so, it’s time to make some noise. Join Oxfam and our network of volunteers—along with musicians and bands like Coldplay, WILCO, Angelique Kidjo, and Arcade Fire—in a global movement to overcome poverty and injustice.
