Hi! We are Khadija Lynch, Carrie Leigh Schurr, Nan Sato and Sandrina daCruz, Oxfam America Action Corps field organizers for Philadelphia. We have an extraordinary opportunity to create meaningful positive change during the next few months, and we need your help!
Oxfam America is an international relief and development organization that creates lasting solutions to poverty, hunger, and social injustice. The Action Corps is a volunteer initiative started by Oxfam America to inform, inspire, and mobilize public support.
There are currently Action Corps in 13 cities nationwide cultivating volunteers to start a grassroots movement. Volunteers receive ongoing support from Oxfam America, including campaign materials, policy strategies, and advice on community organizing. Each city has two trained volunteer “co-leaders” who welcome and orient volunteers throughout the year.
In our efforts, we outreach at concerts, festivals and house parties, we lobby by writing letters, calling and meeting with legislators and also advocate by appearing as guest speakers at educational institutions, community/local groups and other organizations.
This year's campaign brings awareness on how Climate Change impacts poor people in developing countries, and how to create equitable solutions to the crisis. We are asking that the US cut greenhouse gas emissions, and provide financial assistance so that the most vulnerable communities can adapt.
Please join us in our efforts. Take a minute to join Philadelphia Action Corps by emailing us at mailto:Philadelphia.ActionCorps@gmail.com
