A young walk against want supporter

walk against want returns to its community roots

In 2007, 23 walk against wants were organised by dedicated Oxfam groups, committees, schools, students and individuals to take steps against poverty and injustice.

Hundreds of thousands of people have taken part in the walk over the last 40 years, raising more than $10 million for our long-term development work around the world. Many of these walks have been organised by dedicated volunteers. We couldn't have done it without you!

We have now developed a tool kit that will help you to hold your own walk against want fundraising event at a time that suits you. For a copy of the tool kit email us or call 1800 034 034.
