New faces! Oxfam Action Corps welcomes its 2012 Organizers


May 12-15 marks the 6th annual Oxfam Action Corps advocacy and leadership training in Washington DC, and we’re very excited to introduce to you this year’s Organizers!  Twenty-nine Oxfam supporters from 15 US cities are stepping up as local leaders willing to provide a helping hand to anyone in their city who wants to fight hunger and poverty with Oxfam.  They bring experience in organizing, a passion for global justice, and a commitment to provide leadership in their city.  Now they need YOU to join them!

In Washington DC they will learn advocacy and leadership skills and then hit Capitol Hill for a day of lobby visits with their legislators, in which they will deliver Oxfam’s petition to fix US food aid. Click here to sign the petition.

Once they get home the Organizers will be revved up for action and counting on you to provide your help and ideas!  Please reach out and say hi – we’ve provided contact info below the slide show.




Feel free to contact any of our new organizers about getting involved!
