ISUBILO COMMUNITY RESOURCE CENTRE
is a non-profit charitable organisation working in Ndola the third largest city in Zambia and was established in May 2000. Isubilo means hope in the local Bemba language and offers hope to families and individuals affected by HIV/AIDS through holistic physical - medical - psychological and spiritual care.

The Isubilo Centre is based in Chifubu a teeming urban township of Ndola. Isubilo serves three townships with a joint population of 120,000 within the area most affected by HIV/AIDS in the region. Many inhabitants live in very poor densely populated conditions without basic public services and sanitation. The centre is a converted tavern within a walled compound of two acres. The property which has been developed over six years now includes a clinic, a pharmacy, packing and storage rooms, a conference hall, a small meeting area also used as a craft workshop, a kitchen, a maize mill and small offices. The buildings are surrounded by land partly cultivated by the agricultural team and HIV support group clients and partly used for sports activities. A bore-hole provides clean water for the centre and an outlet at the gate supplies free water to the local community.
