T&T has contributed to Oxfam NZ over many years and continues to support a number of initiatives. One area T&T is involved in is support of Oxfam’s Water for Survival programme. In particular T&T is one of the major sponsors of the ‘Nihotupu Tramline Walk’ held each year in Auckland to raise money for Water for Survival. This year the walk was held on Sunday 9 March and more than $10,000 was raised for water related projects in developing Pacific countries.
Another way T&T makes a positive difference is by supporting Oxfam’s Fair Trade Coffee scheme. By ensuring that all its coffee is purchased through the Fair Trade market T&T helps guarantee Third World producers a fair price for their produce whilst also helping establish longer term, more direct trading relationships.
T&T and Oxfam NZ are currently discussing other opportunities where the two organisations can work more closely together, especially in relation to water related projects in the Pacific.
