When Nicki first joined our Board, she said, “It’s great to be involved with Oxfam. I’ve spent a lot of my working life in and around the Pacific, and I’ve seen first hand the positive changes they are making. Oxfam’s strong commitment to working alongside their overseas partners, together with their quality systems and efficient programmes, means that our supporters’ dollars really do make a difference”
