Oxfam. What springs to mind?
Charity shops and second-hand clothes?
Donkeys from our Oxfam Unwrapped gift catalogue, bought for people in far-flung lands?

Oxfam is already reaching families across the region with the food, water and basic sanitation they desperately need to stay alive. Click here to view East Africa images from Oxfam and find out more.

Syria crisis
More than a million refugees have now fled violence in Syria and are in desperate need of shelter, food and water. Oxfam is aiming to reach 650,000 people in the coming months and calling for more international aid and a peaceful solution to the crisis.Enough Food for Everyone IF
The IF campaign is a huge coalition of UK-based organisations, including Oxfam, who share the vision of a world where everyone has enough to eat.Between now and the G8 in June, we're joining forces to petition David Cameron relentlessly and every which way to use his presidency of the G8 to take a lead on hunger.
Through our actions, and his leadership, we can persuade governments to act too, and when they do, everyone on this planet will have the chance of getting the food they need to live a healthy, happy life.
