Oxfam Unwrapped Charity Gifts half price
Comments
-
I am an animal lover and vegetarian so would be very concerned about animals being mistreated. However I buy goats, chickens etc every year from Oxfam to give as gifts. I think Oxfam are the experts in this area and I trust their judgement with how they spend the money helping people. In reality I think the money is more widely used than buying a particular animal etc and is a clever marketing tool. If it helps people in developing countries, good on them for getting donations up this way.0

Does anyone know if they will be doing something similar in 2016? If so, when will it be available? I know they have the last few years, just got to time it right.0
