- "Community has always been an important part of my life and Oxfam is really a community to me." Says Cooper King, who volunteers in their local Oxfam shop in Edinburgh. If you have a few hours to spare why not find out about joining the community in your local Oxfam shop working to overcome poverty www.oxfam.org.uk/get-involved... and for information on Oxfam and LGBTQIA+ go to www.oxfam.org.uk/about-us/lgb... When we include everyone we can overcome poverty.
How respectful were Oxfams workers when they were in Haiti. Im am loud, proud and supportive of people who were being taken advantage of by predatory Oxfam workers post earthquake. Never mind stickers on lamp posts 😂
Remember when it was about ending famine?
Yeah Cooper! :D

Oxfam has succumbed to the cult. A real shame.
What a vile, captured, ideological organisation Oxfam has become.
I ❤ JK Rowling.
What a joke! OXFAM has no respect for women and got caught out today.
what a crock! What a joke! Oxfam is a disgrace In 2010, after the terrible earthquake in Haiti, senior members of Oxfam’s staff including its Haiti director of operations, Roland Van Hauwermeiren, were alleged to have preyed upon the survivors. They were first accused of having made prostitutes of the Haitian locals, paying them for sex. Some of those locals were allegedly children, which makes what follows all the more galling. (In 2006 in Chad, it later emerged, exactly the same thing was alleged to have happened, again led by Van Hauwermeiren)
After hearing of these accusations in 2011, Oxfam actively hid them from public view. It took until 2018 for reporting in The Times and elsewhere to acknowledge the story. In the meantime, four of the alleged perpetrators, including Van Hauwermeiren, were encouraged to resign quietly. All this in the hope of defending the charity’s reputation rather than attempting to reckon with its sins.
In 2018 Oxfam released a heavily redacted version of its 2011 report, noting not only the allegations against these and other men, but also extensive corroboration. All of this was kept from the public for seven years, and from the Charity Commission for as long. After years of conscious concealment and deceit, and after the crimes themselves, Oxfam tried pathetically to spin the report as an exercise in honesty and learning lessons.
The Sunday Times reported of over a hundred individual complaints of sexual abuse against workers for British charities. The Charity Commission report in 2019 found that not only did Oxfam conceal and lie for all it was worth; it also pointedly “failed to act” on reports that its staff were abusing girls in Haiti. It acted as though complainants, including children, were liars, and its staff were upstanding people wrongly accused
