Friend –

When I traveled to Mexico with Oxfam America earlier this year, I saw the devastating conditions at the border firsthand. Innocent people, adults and children, are being held in inhumane conditions in overflowing shelters. These families are no different than yours and mine – and they've been forced to flee due to violence, corruption, instability, poverty, and hardship.

As the conditions in Central America worsen, we're seeing an influx of people as the number of families fleeing for safety increases. But you can help, friend. When you make a gift to Oxfam, you're helping us strengthen our work to address the root causes of migration in Central America and more than 90 countries around the world.

You have the chance to help families like these and others living in poverty. Donate now >>

Friend, thanks to your support, we've been working in Central America for more than three decades. Every day, we are supporting families struggling with economic hardship, empowering women to build businesses, and working to end gender-based violence. We need you to help address the root of the problems that cause people to flee Central America.

The conditions in Central America are only getting worse – we've seen a major spike this year in migrants as the number of people fleeing for safety increases. These families need our help. No one deserves to be forced from their homes in order to escape violence or grow enough food to survive. You can be part of the solution.

When you donate today, you're not just helping families in Central America. You're supporting families in more than 90 countries around the world.

Please, make a gift today >>

Thank you for your continued support.

Sincerely,
Abby Maxman
President
Oxfam America
