Oxfam
The two companies I have chosen is Oxfam and Tesco; Tesco’s is one of the biggest companies in the world and is known very well through out the whole of England.
The charity I have chosen is Oxfam and the reason I chose this is because it is a well-known charity and company through out the whole of England, the charity is working in 94 countries worldwide to help fight poverty. Oxfam was founded in 1942 in oxford; the charity also helps with disaster relief. Oxfam is a Voluntary sector company.
The charity was founded by a group of Quakers, social activists and oxford academics. The first overseas Oxfam was found in Canada in 1963. I chose Oxfam because I have an interest in the company and I think its one of the best charities in the UK.
