Limited Excess Property Program (LEPP)
Through the Limited Excess Property Program (LEPP), Private Voluntary
Organizations (PVOs) can acquire U.S. government excess property for use in their
programs and projects overseas. To participate they must be registered with United
States Agency for International Development (USAID) and take the equipment on an
as is, where is basis. Through LEPP, USAID makes it possible for millions of dollars
of excess property to be utilized in dozens of developing countries. The value of
excess property transferred to PVOs through the LEPP exceeded $31 million FY 2003
and FY 2004.
Examples of what the program has provided include:
- vehicles for Uzbekistan, Honduras, Dominican Rep., Russia, and
Romania
- computers for Zambia, South Africa, El Salvador, Haiti, Peru and Bolivia
- anesthesia machine for Afghanistan
- mobile x-ray machine for Kosovo
- new x-ray cardiac laboratory for Ghana.
