Give an 'Unwrapped' Gift this Christmas

Tuesday December 12, 2006
We spend a lot of time and money on our horses and ponies. They bring us pleasure and companionship and in return we give them the best of our care. But many people, in many parts of the world count on their livestock for much more than just pleasure, and providing the right care can be difficult. This holiday season, why not help someone in a developing country look after their animals, or provide an animal that will help improve their lives. Through Oxfam America Unwrapped you can donate a field veterinarian kit. Or get your workplace together and help build a stable. Or if you like the idea of giving someone a pony for Christmas, here's the next best thing. Through Oxfam Unwrapped UK, you could give someone a donkey that will provide transportation and manure that can help improve gardens and fields.
