Twitter Sunday is back! Last Sunday was Valentine’s Dayso we replaced our weekly Twitter Sunday with a special news: Valentine’s Day: (RED)Kisses & products, eCards… Back to normal with today our Favorites Tweets @oxfamamerica. We follow and support Oxfam‘s work for a long time now, and Max Dana mentioned them in several of her posts on her blog (‘Darfur: a World Wide Role Playing Game‘ in 2008, and ‘Darfur, Congo, Burma: is ‘good will’ enough?‘ in 2009). We even invited Oxfam France to be part of the “60 Signers for the 60th Anniversary” Initiativebut the organization didn’t follow up to the invitation;  many others accepted and we sincerely regret Oxfam was not represented… Sometimes things don’t happen!

Since the earthquake in Haiti, the organization is directly involved and provides an amazing help to the Haitians. We had to mention Oxfam, their work and their Tweets on the Sama Gazette! If you don’t know Oxfam yet, here is ‘Who we are’ taken from their website:

Oxfam America is an international relief and development organization that creates lasting solutions to poverty, hunger, and injustice. Together with individuals and local groups in more than 100 countries, Oxfam saves lives, helps people overcome poverty, and fights for social justice. We are an affiliate of Oxfam International.

Our vision: A just world without poverty

Our mission: To create lasting solutions to poverty, hunger, and social injustice.
