give a goat this year

We have a little contest running round here whereby each time someone says the word "christmas" they put $1 in a pot.

So far, we've said it enough to buy a goat from Oxfam, which will be purchased in the region where it is needed. Talk about a real gift this Chr...er, yuletide. We're saving for a donkey ;)

give the gift of a goat

Still shopping? Skip the mall and give a truly meaningful gift. The 'Oxfam Unwrapped' program is a unique collection of gifts you can give while helping people in developing countries become more self-sufficient. Give a survival kit or bicycle, or even a chicken, goat or donkey.

The recipient receives a card detailing the gift you bought in their name while the actual item goes to those who need it most (you don't actually have to wrap up the goat).
