Fred,

Tell Barrick to Stop Mining on Sacred Grounds

Barrick Gold has been mining Shoshone lands without consent and
is expanding into Mount Tenabo and Horse Canyon, NV--areas
considered sacred to the Shoshone. Take action today!

Spreading the Wealth

Oxfam's innovative Saving for Change program is helping poor
people in Mali, Senegal, and Cambodia make a decent living and
build better futures by improving their access to financial
services. Learn how one woman in Mali is benefiting from the
program. (http://act.oxfamamerica.org/ct/idS1g5F1iEI1/)

As the Need in Darfur Grows, so Does the Difficulty in
Delivering Aid

About 4 million people in Darfur now depend on humanitarian
assistance. But as their numbers mount--and as violence and
attacks on aid workers escalate--so does the difficulty in
reaching them. Read an on-the-ground update from Darfur.

Taking Steps Toward Gender Equity

Oxfam's Elizabeth Stevens travels to India to learn how women in
one small village are moving toward gender equality by running
their own fishing enterprise, with help from Oxfam. Read the
story. (http://act.oxfamamerica.org/ct/8pS1g5F1iEWV/)
