Lev Leviev and Oxfam
By: Alex Renton
Oxfam
11 January 2008

Contrary to reports on the internet, Lev Leviev is NOT a donor to Oxfam America and has never been one.

To the best of our knowledge Mr Leviev has not been a donor to Oxfam or any of its affiliates. Oxfam International is an organization of 13 national affiliates working in 100 countries, and we are checking thoroughly whether any Oxfam has had any relationship with Mr Leviev.

Oxfam`s policies on donations, corporate and private, are clear. We don`t knowingly accept funds from any business involved in any illegal activity, or operating in any illegally occupied territory, including settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories. Oxfam abides by international humanitarian law, and thus has a long-standing policy of opposition to such settlements.


For further information please contact Alex Renton, media officer for Oxfam GB in the Middle East, on +44 7957 371902, alexrenton@gmail.com or arenton@oxfam.org.uk
