we are OASIS

Since its establishment as a non-profit organization in 1984, OASIS has played a pivotal role in serving seniors in Northern Santa Barbara County. OASIS, which stands for “Orcutt Area Seniors In Service,” was founded by local seniors who were driven by a shared commitment to serving their community, supporting and uplifting their fellow community members in their golden years.

 

Over the past 39 years, OASIS has evolved into a beloved and essential institution for local adults, providing them with a welcoming and nurturing environment. It has become a home away from home, offering fellowship, service opportunities, personal growth, and development. The organization is primarily volunteer-driven, with members actively engaged in giving back to their community.
