OXAB is a student-run organisation that has been helping disadvantaged children in the Balkans since 1993. The original trips to Bosnian refugee camps were a great success, and since then, OXAB has expanded to help children in orphanages and other institutions in both Bosnia and Bulgaria.

Trips focus especially on personal contribution by the volunteers to the children's lives - in many cases, for children living in chronically understaffed institutions, care and attention can do far more than new equipment and toys, however desperately needed. Magdalen College Aid to the Balkans (MCAB) are looking for volunteers to travel to Bulgaria this Easter to work with children in orphanages and day centres. Meetings are held every Sunday in Hilary and Trinity term at 7.30 pm in the Miles Room at St. Peter's College.
