Helping Oxfam's cause
Sir, Oxfam Ireland would like to pay tribute to The Kerryman readers for their generous support in the past 12 months. Despite extremely challenging times here at home, the public once again remembered the millions of people in developing countries who so desperately needed our assistance in 2011. On their behalf, may I say a huge 'thank you.'
Thanks also to The Kerryman readers who donated items to our shops as part of our Make Space for Oxfam campaign during 2011. Giving your unwanted goods and shopping at your local Oxfam store helps raise vital funds for our humanitarian and long-term development work, which makes a huge difference to some of the world's poorest people.
We hope you will continue to support Oxfam Ireland in 2012. Sincerely, Jim Clarken, Chief Executive, Oxfam Ireland.
