A pair of 'Wedding Goats'

If you are looking for that 'funusual' or alternative wedding gift, then why not give Oxfam's 'wedding goats' to the happy couple for that special present?

The special gift is from the 'Oxfam Unwrapped'
gift collection which enables you to send a unique present to the developing world on someone else's behalf.

The gifts hit the headlines last Christmas, when Oxfam raised over £5 million for needy people around the world, by helping people to send goats, camels, chickens, pigs and other assorted livestock around the world.

All the gift-giver has to do is order the present online
, give a special message and Oxfam does the rest. A card arrives to the happy couple with your personalised message, telling them that a gift has been made on their behalf to some of the world's poorest people.

In the words of Oxfam; "No iffs or butts, this lovely couple of goats is a great gift!"

And it is, because goats produce manure to fertilise crops, and milk to drink or to sell - which can raise cash for school fees or farm tools, and start to reduce poverty.

Best of all, the first female kid this lovely pair have will be given to another family and the process starts all over again. So why not invest in a pair of goats?

"As for the goats we received from Oxfam… I consider them a gift from the sky. Giving animals to people like us is very important. It gave me confidence and increased my family's security because we now had assets" Aiche Mint Imizine from Mauritania told Oxfam after receiving the goats.
