Why donate toys to charity?

Funds raised from the sale of your toys could go towards people like Magdalene, the founder of the Female Pastors Network (FEMINET), a women-led farming cooperative in Sierra Leone.
With support and training from Oxfam’s local partners, Magdalene found ways to tackle malnutrition in her community by turning cassava into fortified flour.
With a grant, FEMINET were also able to buy land, providing business sustainability and creating new opportunities for local women.
