Oxfam Ireland Schools

Unwrapped

Oxfam Ireland Unwrapped gifts are a great way to find out more about the world around you.

Why are Unwrapped gifts so important?

tile-pigletBecause they are essential items for the communities where Oxfam works, and they help people to work their own way out of poverty. Whether you choose to build a bog, plant some trees, or support a farm with piglets, goats or chicks, you will be helping Oxfam Ireland to overcome poverty and suffering.
