Oxfam. What springs to mind? Charity shops and second-hand clothes? Africa? Think bigger. Much bigger. Last year, our emergency and development work reached a staggering 15 million people in 94 countries! Thanks to our amazing supporters.
With 70 years experience in 92 countries, we understand what people need to tackle poverty head on - seeds, tools, business training - whatever it takes.
Where we work
Last year, we ran 47 emergency responses in 31 countries, providing vital support in desperate conditions, from clean water top life-saving lessons in public hygiene.
Emergency response
More kids in school. Better health care for mums and babies. More and better aid. With your help, we campaign to tackle the root causes of poverty.
Issues we work on
Back in the UK, staff, volunteers and supporters are hard at work, raising the money we need to keep doing what we do. The results are priceless.

We publish outstanding analysis informed by our work and experience in the field.
