Introducing OOG

The Oxford Oxfam Group (OOG) is a long-established local volunteer group supporting Oxfam’s work overcoming poverty and suffering around the world. We have about sixty members and a varied programme of events, which include:
  • Campaigns to raise the profile of vital issues, such as fair trade, debt relief, and education. Help promoting these campaigns is always welcome!!
  • Fundraising: Members undertake many activities, from collecting pennies in a jar to holding stalls at local Fairs, raising over £15,000 a year to support Oxfam’s work. We are always open to fundraising suggestions, so if you fancy a sponsored tug-o-war, firewalk or something even more crazy, please let us know!
  • Members’ evenings: informal meetings, usually combining a short presentation from an invited speaker with an opportunity to socialise.
