Problematic website
Problematic website. Tried to purchase a goat 3x from my phone. Finally used desktop computer. Love the gift program and match, though.

I Buy Some of These Every Christmas!
I like the selection and the recipients are always happy to be a part of it. My favorite is the water jugs.
Giving bees is a plus
Great organization. Glad to help and I especially liked the gift of bees.
I love giving Oxfam gifts, but
I love giving Oxfam gifts, but am disappointed that you don't send out actual cards to my recipients anymore. I've been giving for years, but I'll probably go elsewhere next year.

Oxfam online giving is just as rewarding and easy as ever!
Oxfam giving has been a great experience for decades. They have made their online giving experience just as easy and rewarding. It's wonderful to be able to give water, or a farm animal, to help someone survive and thrive, in honor of someone you love!

I think you do a great job of advertising to spread the word of the need to feed the hungry and such a large percentage goes straight to the source needed.

I find this site more confusing each time I try to make a donation. It took me at least twice as long to make my contributions as it did a few years ago! Assuming that someone who is on the site knows what Oxfam is about, the rest should be how to donate without complications. Each time I selected something and tried to move to the next item, I had to go back and specify no card.
It seems to me that your site encourages ONE item when it ought to be an easy matter to select several (as I do).
One item was on a page by itself with no indication of other items; also, the items that are not available should not be shown--what's the point?

Wonderful and meaningful gift ideas, feels great to help in this easy way
Such a wonderful idea. And so many great options. Easy to purchase. Also gift card itself is really nice. If I could give only one pointer, it would be nice if you could add a name on the gift card to make it more personal. Anyhow these gift options are really great, giving you a wonderful feeling of actually meaning something for another human being on this planet :)

I was working from my IPhone and found the website hard to navigate. In other words, it wasn’t seamless. I had to keep restarting the process. Very frustrating.

I'm not site if i got the matching Goat with my donation. I saw it on my cell but when i hit Donate it didn't show.
I can hear their joy & laughter!
Of all the worthy organizations to donate, this one feels especailly good ! Being a US citizen it is not often we can donate confidently to other countries we have benefited from via their precious natural elements. I really like being able to select a specific area-- it's been goats, womens small business and this year to help build a school for girls-- I can hear thier laughter jumping off the page !!
I love your online gift-giving options
I love your online gift-giving options! Thanks for making it so easy to donate in honor of my loved ones. I did Oxfam gifts for all of my adult family members for the holidays last year, and this year when I asked what people wanted, they told me to do the same again -- so much better to think of our holiday money helping those in need rather than filling our homes with useless junk. I especially love the printable cards with enough info to make us feel invested.

I gave three animal gifts and sent ecards. How many chickens are in a flock of chickens? Why does one duck cost so much relative to a whole flock of chickens?
Oxfam is a wonderful organization that helps so many people worldwide
Oxfam is a wonderful organization that does so much good around the world. I recently made some donations through Oxfam Gifts. The site was very easy to use and rewarding to see exactly how your donation would be spent.
