This year I didn’t put together an Gifts for expats post, blame a lack of inspiration, maybe next year. But I did connect with Oxfam, who I featured in last years post, and they kindly sent me some more information on Oxfam Unwrapped to share with you.
These are gifts for the people who have everything.
For those people you just can’t find anything for.
These are gifts to make people smile, and won’t end up at the back of a cupboard.
Most importantly these are the gifts that keep on giving and keep on improving lives.
Can you imagine your mother in laws face when she opens her ‘goat’? or your sisters when she opens her ‘pile of poo’? These gifts (and many others to) support Oxfam’s ‘Making a living’ projects which enable people to generate a sustainable income and raise themselves out of poverty.

E-cards are available (as well as traditional cards) so these are (in my opinion) a wonderful last minute gift, especially for people who live far away. Find out how it works below….
Oxfam GB and DE both have the same gifts available. Also some gifts are on sale now, so why not get a breeding pair of goats instead of just a single?
Happy shopping!
