Aid cuts left DRC behind on its response to Ebola, weakening the surveillance systems that should have detected this outbreak weeks earlier. “And we are watching cases rise. We are very, very worried.” -Dr. Manenji Mangundu, Oxfam’s DRC Country Director www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/0...

Jeff Bezos is worth over $270 billion. Billionaires paying their fair share in taxes would help those in Queens and beyond. Inequality is not inevitable, it's a policy choice.

After reckless cuts to U.S aid, we welcome the reported additional funding to be announced today for humanitarian assistance, which so many have pushed hard to restore. But how it is distributed is vital - it must be based on need, not politics. www.devex.com/news/scoop-t...

If Jeff Bezos dropped a $20 bill while walking the #MetGala red carpet, he may as well leave it... One way we push back on this extreme inequality: properly #TaxTheRich so we can invest in public goods and programs that benefit everyone.

“What the data shows is that we cannot have a conversation about the affordability crisis without talking about extreme inequality, and in particular the extreme inequality between CEO pay and worker pay” -Oxfam's Patricia Stottlemyer on the rapid rise of CEO pay

Over 1.3 million people have fled violence in Sudan, crossing into South Sudan. In Renk, the main transit center is now operating at more than 4x its capacity. Support Oxfam in helping families facing hunger, conflict, and inequality in South Sudan and beyond. give.oxfamamerica.org/page/73920/d...

Yes! Great to see the @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social continuing to lead the charge to #TaxtheRich in order to fund public services.   New York's richest billionaires gained $42.4 billion each last year. They can afford to pay their fair share in taxes. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The “trade over aid” plan that the Trump administration is pushing would go against humanitarian principles of helping those most in need. Instead it prioritizes profits over people’s lives. Oxfam’s humanitarian policy lead, Daryl Grisgraber, weighs in on this policy with @forbes.com.

For over 50 years, the Southern Poverty Law Center has fought against injustice, hate & white supremacy. Now, that work has made them a target of this administration. Oxfam America proudly stands with @splcenter.org in the fight for civil rights. We will not be silenced. @oxfamamerica.bsky.social

As seen from space, the earth belongs to everyone, not just the 1%. 🌍 This Earth Day, we're keeping up the fight to hold the powerful accountable to act rapidly for a cleaner, greener future for our planet and everyone on it. #MakePollutersPay. act.oxfamamerica.org/page/89868/p...

The U.S. is facing an inequality emergency. This past Tax Day, we spilled the tea on extreme inequality —and creating an economy that works for everyone, not just the ultra-wealthy few. 🍵

Lebanon needs a full, unconditional and permanent #ceasefire that all parties adhere to. Humanitarian aid must reach communities without obstruction so people can return and rebuild their lives with dignity.

This "trade over aid" plan is yet another example of the Trump administration prioritizing profits over people's lives, and another one of President Trump's repeated attacks on lifesaving humanitarian aid that has been deadly. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

North Carolina was ranked the #1 state for business by @cnbc.com , yet @oxfamamerica.bsky.social ranks the state the worst for workers. Watch as Patriotic Millionaire John Driscoll explains how this is the result of policy choices that favor profits over people. youtu.be/BidcV8v0S8o

Six months after a ceasefire was declared in Gaza, Palestinians are still suffering. As the crisis in the Middle East escalates, families in Gaza still can’t get the humanitarian aid they need. Palestinians deserve safety, dignity, and the chance to rebuild.

6 months after the Gaza ceasefire plan, we assessed progress on the plan’s own stated objectives on: ▪️Civilian Protection ▪️Aid Access ▪️Reconstruction & Economic Development ▪️Freedom of Movement & Return Bottomline: The #ceasefire is failing.

This pause must become a stepping stone for wider peace across the Middle East.

Oxfam will be among the many who demand that anyone who orders these attacks be held accountable.

Trans people deserve safety, dignity, and joy, yet rising criminalization across the U.S. threatens their basic rights. On #TransDayOfVisibility, Oxfam stands in solidarity and remains steadfast in the fight for bodily autonomy, equality, and justice for all. #TheFutureIsEqual

Women's history is more than a month, it's a movement. This #WomensHistoryMonth, we celebrate the voices, values, and visions driving change. From rally cries to affirmations, these feminist stickers reaffirm our commitment to equality, autonomy, solidarity, and power.

NEW Oxfam report findings: The 10 richest New Yorkers gained $42.4 billion over the past year, with these ultra-rich billionaires raking in about $2 million per hour. @rebeccariddell.bsky.social speaks to the rise of inequality in NY and across the US: fortune.com/2026/03/26/n...

The gender wage gap widened for the second year in a row. Women continue to be undervalued and underpaid. On #EqualPayDay, we're calling for pay equity now. Closing the wage gap is key to ensuring women and their families can afford to make ends meet.

The need for clean water and decent sanitation services are essential for human survival, and are two key ways that you—and Oxfam—can make an enormous difference. By providing clean water, hygiene promotion, and sanitation services we can save countless lives. #WorldWaterDay

🚨Oxfam and partners are responding to the immediate needs of people who have been forcibly displaced by Israel’s bombardment and ground invasion of Lebanon, as the conflict across the region enters a dramatically new and dangerous phase.

No single person should be this close to accumulating $1 trillion, and Musk’s obscene fortune is certainly not the byproduct of only hard work or talent. Much of his personal wealth is the direct result of a broken system rigged by corporate greed, exploitation, and extraction.

This #InternationalWomensDay, a reminder of what every woman deserves. 📣 At Oxfam, we remain committed to challenging all forms of discrimination and exclusion women face and stand with global gender justice and women's rights movements to advance equality.

1 year ago President Trump and billionaire Elon Musk decimated USAID, an organization that has long played a critical role in tackling poverty, hunger, and inequality worldwide. Today, we joined former USAID employees to call for a reinvestment in lifesaving aid.

This is a step in the right direction for aid groups like Oxfam to be able to do their jobs as the humanitarian situation in Gaza remains critical. We will continue to support people in crisis in the West Bank and Gaza by providing lifesaving assistance. apnews.com/article/isra...

The Trump administration claimed its elimination of USAID and humanitarian assistance was to “reduce government spending” when in reality it made up less than 1% of our federal budget. After wreaking havoc on aid programs, federal spending went UP by $260 billion in 2025.

Black History Month 2026 will be remembered for the loss of a civil rights icon. For 60 years, Rev. Jesse Louis Jackson worked tirelessly for freedom and dignity for all people and demonstrated that we can never stop organizing. politicsofpoverty.oxfamamerica.org/rev-jesse-lo...

The massive surge in billionaire wealth has led to the 1% having an outsized influence over our politicians, economies, and media. As families struggle to afford groceries, housing, childcare, and healthcare, govt's need to listen to the needs of the people, not just the super-rich.
