Every year members of our community come up with new and creative ways to help Oxfam fight poverty and injustice. You can join in by deciding on the event that works best for you. Below are a few ideas to get you started.
Looking for a fun and creative way to join the fight against poverty? Host an Oxfam Jam fundraising event and spotlight local artists while making a global impact.
Are you a student looking for a way to help? If your high school or university offers prepaid meal plans, consider holding an Oxfam dining hall fast. It’s an easy way to reach lots of students and raise funds to benefit Oxfam’s work.
A house party is a fun, informal gathering where you get your friends and family together to take action, like writing a letter or making a phone call to your legislator, hosting a film screening and discussion, building a support network, or educating others.
Tabling is a simple, effective way to inspire social change. Besides a table, you'll need a few volunteers and some free Oxfam educational materials that you can download or order for free.
Our event experts are here to help. Contact us via email at [email protected]. And don't forget to email us after your event to let us know how it went!
