The KPC Foundation commissioned a new Sh6 million outpatient block at Momoniat Health Centre in Kipkelion, Kericho County on March 13, 2026, with Energy and Petroleum Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi attending the commissioning ceremony.
Speaking during the commissioning ceremony, KPC Foundation Manager Rachel Gathoni said the project reflects the Foundation's commitment to strengthening community health systems and supporting the delivery of quality healthcare services. "This outpatient block will help improve service delivery, reduce congestion, and provide a more conducive environment for both patients and healthcare workers," said Gathoni.
Cabinet Secretary Wandayi commended the Foundation for complementing government efforts to expand access to healthcare, stating that "partnerships between government and corporate institutions are key in strengthening healthcare infrastructure and ensuring communities have access to essential services."
Momoniat Health Centre, operational since 1995, currently operates as a Level Three facility, serving approximately 3,000 outpatients and handling about 50 deliveries every month. The Kericho County Government has earmarked the facility for upgrade to a Level Four hospital, which would significantly expand healthcare services in the area.
