A Message from Oxfam Australia Executive Director, Andrew Hewett
The Melbourne International Comedy Festival Gala has supported Oxfam for 10 years raising over half a million dollars for our work and also, importantly, raising awareness of the issues affecting poor communities around the world. We are delighted to be supported by the Comedy Festival. We are looking forward to this year's Gala which we are sure will be the best ever! Oxfam Australia visit www.oxfam.org.au
