Oyugis integrated project is a non-profit organization that supports the less fortunate persons infected or affected with HIV. We are located within Oyugis town opposite St. Peter Catholic Church. For over twenty years we have been supporting the vulnerable with education, food, clothing, housing and empowerment programs for women and youth. We appreciate you for being part of our community. With the support of our friends and neighbors like you, we have been able to accomplish a lot over the past years. Currently we have sponsoring over 50 orphans, providing food to the handicaped, offering free medical support to over 2000 HIV positive clients who visit our dispensary every year and offering vocational training to teenage girls who are victims and early pregnancy and school drop out. Your kind donation of books, clothes, sanitary pads, textile and food will save lives and bring hope to the most venerable persons in our community. To make your contribution more visible we are pleased to recognize your company in our meetings as well as our newsletters highlighting your generosity. Your feedback is very much appreciated.

Who We Are

 Who We Are

The Oyugis Integrated Project (OIP) is a community-driven initiative under the stewardship of the Brothers of Our Lady Mother of Mercy (CMM Brothers), a congregation of Catholic religious men dedicated to following Christ’s example of compassion and service. Since 1994, OIP has been committed to supporting individuals and families affected by HIV/AIDS, as well as addressing broader community needs in Oyugis, Kenya.

At the core of our mission is the Shirikisho Dispensary, which serves as a vital healthcare hub for the community, offering essential medical services to an average of 100 clients daily, including antenatal and postnatal care. Our plans to establish a maternity unit reflect our ongoing commitment to improving maternal and child health outcomes.

Our services extend beyond healthcare, embracing a holistic approach to community support. We run a home-based care program providing palliative care, medical assistance, and basic needs to those living with HIV/AIDS, facilitated by our dedicated volunteers. We also operate a food support program for handicapped individuals, offering assistance twice a week to ensure that vulnerable members of our community have access to nutritious meals.

In addition, OIP is committed to youth empowerment through skill-building initiatives, such as our tailoring training program for young women. This program not only equips them with valuable skills but also fosters economic independence and self-reliance.

Rooted in the values of sustainability, impact, and continuous improvement, OIP strives to create a healthier, more empowered community. Guided by our faith and the example of Christ, we remain dedicated to being a beacon of hope, resilience, and transformative support for all those we serve.
