Oxfam takes the field in the fight against hunger with the #fidolafame campaign

This year too, women have chosen to support Oxfam and its commitment to fight hunger, in support of women in developing countries.

By sending a text message or calling 45509 from a landline, you participate in the Oxfam #sfidolafame campaign in support of women struggling to feed themselves and their children

In fact, millions of women struggle against discrimination, injustice and poverty, and who every day find themselves having to face extreme difficulties in order to feed their children and their families. It is precisely on this front that Oxfam intends to act with the #sfidolafame campaign; In fact, by sending a text message or calling 45509 from a landline, you can make a fundamental contribution to help women in their daily fight against hunger: with only 2 euros, you can donate seeds to a woman, helping her to guarantee food for the family for an entire season , with 5 euros you give a woman 10 drought-resistant plants, to diversify the crops and have the possibility of a varied diet, while with 10 euros you guarantee a woman a chicken farm for the production of eggs.

A small, extremely significant gesture that makes it possible to give concrete help to women like Aramla, who lives in the village of Kassira, in the Guéra region, in Chad, one of the poorest countries in the world and who fights against hunger every day. Aramla tells us that when food is scarce due to drought, she is forced to look for seeds in anthills to feed her children: "When I dig in anthills, the ants climb on top of me and bite me. It is a very difficult job but it is the only way to find food for the children. So I keep doing it, even if it's painful”.

Thanks to the help of Oxfam, Aramla and her family obtained 34 kg of corn, 5 kg of beans, 2 liters of oil and salt, thus leading a better life. The day she receives the food, Aramla prepares a typical dish with corn, which is enriched with a sauce made from leaves.A little help from us can really make a difference to the lives of these women and their families.
