American Schools and Hospitals Abroad

Lubuto Library Partners were awarded three grants from USAID’s American Schools and Hospitals Abroad (ASHA) program to construct new libraries and furnish them with complete library collections and innovative technology.

The first grant, in 2014, supported the construction of the the Mthunzi Library in Lusaka West with co-financing from our generous donor Judie Feedham. The second grant is supports the construction of the Choma Library in Zambia's Southern Province, slated to open in 2019. The third grant, from FY 2017, received approval in 2018 and will support the Comboni Library south of downtown Lusaka. Construction for the Comboni Library will begin in 2019.

ASHA's awards go to organizations that represent the excellence and leadership of American institutions, so we are quite honored by this tribute to the quality of our work.
