OIC International

ORGANIZATION OVERVIEW OIC International is a nonprofit organization that seeks to improve the quality of life in developing countries through the establishment of effective and sustainable community-based training institutions. OIC International works in developing countries or emerging markets to teach appropriate marketable skills that enable disadvantaged young men and women to become self-reliant, economically productive, and capable of improving the quality of life for themselves and their families.
