Unwrap Real Hope & Joy this Christmas

Are you struggling to find the perfect gift this Christmas?  Why not give something different and check out our Unwrapped gift range! These poverty-beating presents are guaranteed to raise a smile and last a lifetime!

What is Unwrapped?

Each gift in the Oxfam Unwrapped range has been picked because, alongside one of the four funds that it represents, it plays an important part in helping people affected by poverty to build a brighter future. Your gift will go where it’s needed most and begin to make an immediate difference. Each community we work with has different needs, so we ensure families living in severe poverty have a say in finding the best solution for them and we work with them to make that solution a reality.

“This is not just about making honey.”

Meet Addise and Alem who live in rural Ethiopia. The honey they harvest might taste like any other good quality honey, but it’s entirely richer and sweeter when you know that the beekeepers behind it are getting an education, gaining life-changing skills, and earning an income which will continue to reward generations to come. Watch their story!

With our Honeybees (€20/£18) gift, you can help rural farmers learn the latest beekeeping methods and harvest more honey from their hives. More honey means more money to put food on the table and keep children in education.
