Update: we are now out of handmade baubles
A free handmade festive bauble for your tree
In the run up to Christmas 2024, we offered a free peace bauble, handmade in Nepal by fair trade organisation Hatale, to people who started a monthly gift. We are now out of free handmade baubles, but you can still help build a more peaceful world by starting a monthly gift.

When you donate to Oxfam, you're supporting people creating a more peaceful future for all of us.
Such as funding people facing discrimination, to have equal access to education, training, and jobs. It’s backing community farming initiatives which mean everyone prospers. And emergency support for people who have lost everything – food, clean water and hygiene kits.

Hatale women are pioneering fair wages
Oxfam's festive peace decorations are made by women at Hatale in Nepal. Hatale, which is Nepali for ‘made by hand’ is a small company that’s pioneering fair wages and better working practices.
Many of the employees have been with Hatale for over 20 years, and it’s easy to see why. It’s a safe, supportive place to work; in addition to overtime pay, annual holidays and home-working options, Hatale also pays the school fees of workers’ children.
Support Oxfam and you'll help fund people and projects working to bring peace, unity and a fairer world for us all.
Please note: We are no longer offering free handmade baubles, but you can still help support Oxfam's work around the world by starting a monthly gift.
