The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has been a war zone for decades.
 
However, recent peace negotiations have allowed Oxfam’s rapid response team into the region to provide life-saving help to the people of the DRC.
 
This life-saving help comes in the form of tap stands that provide safe, clean drinking water as well as hygiene kits containing soap, towels and basic toiletries that will save children from deadly disease.
 
With your help, we’ll supply 38,000 people with water and sanitation while we’re allowed in during the ceasefire.
 
Access to clean water, hygiene and sanitation is vital. It can save lives, keep families safe and give kids a chance for a happy, healthy future.
 
Your donation today can help save vulnerable families in their fight for survival.
 
Donations of $2 or more are tax-deductible. Your donation will be used in support of Oxfam’s efforts around the world. These are a few of the many ways we work with poor communities improve their lives.
