Build the USAP Community School in Zimbabwe

We are delighted to share an exciting milestone: Phase Two of the USAP Community School (USAPCS) campus construction has been successfully completed. This phase includes the construction of ten housing units across five buildings, comprising six residences for non-teaching staff and four fully furnished guest houses.

Designed to seamlessly complement the architectural style established in Phase One, the new buildings maintain the aesthetic integrity of the campus while incorporating sustainability-focused features that support long-term environmental and operational efficiency.

The completion of housing for non-teaching staff marks a particularly significant step forward for our school community. With staff now living on or immediately adjacent to campus, USAPCS is able to foster a more connected, collaborative, and supportive environment. This proximity strengthens relationships among staff, enhances responsiveness to student needs, and makes working at USAPCS more practical and sustainable for our team, ultimately contributing to staff retention and well-being.

The four new guest houses are equally transformative. These spaces significantly expand our capacity to host convocation speakers, intersession instructors, artists-in-residence, visiting educators, and other contributors who enrich our academic program and school culture. This development makes it far more feasible for partners and collaborators from around the world to spend meaningful time on campus and engage directly with our students and community.

Together, these additions strengthen USAPCS not only as a place of learning, but as a vibrant residential and intellectual community that supports innovation, cultural exchange, and holistic education.

We are deeply grateful for your continued support in making this milestone possible. Your generosity has helped transform USAPCS into a thriving, connected community that supports our students, staff, and visiting educators alike. As we close out the year, we wish you happy holidays and a joyful new year, and we thank you for standing with us as we build a stronger future together.

Greetings from Zimbabwe!

We are proud to share that the second phase of our campus development has began. We are constructing five new buildings comprising a total of ten housing units (each building has two units). This includes six residences designated for non-teaching staff, which will provide essential on-site housing to support our growing team and strengthen our school community.Additionally, we are excited that, of this development, four units are guest houses being built to accommodate visitors. Two designed for short-term stays and two equipped with kitchens for longer-term guests. This expansion is a vital step in enhancing our campus infrastructure, supporting staff well-being, and welcoming partners, volunteers, and supporters more effectively. Construction is underway, we have attached photos. We anticipate completion by January 2026.

We are deeply grateful to you for making this next chapter possible. Your generosity continues to build not just structures, but opportunities and impact that will be felt for years to come to the USAP Community School students and their families. Thank you for believing in our mission and walking alongside us as we grow.
