Hello Neighbor Clubhouse
a Day of Service project
For our inaugural Day of Service, we selected Hello Neighbor, a nonprofit organization based in Pittsburgh committed to supporting recently resettled refugee families. During the Day of Service, Rothschild Doyno Collaborative conducted a Design Sketchbook workshop to create Design Guidelines for a future Hello Neighbor clubhouse as they consider potential locations and begin to fundraise around the concept.

AIA Pittsburgh Design Award
In Service to Refugees
Social Equity In Design Award, 2020
On a pro bono basis, our firm collaborated with Hello Neighbor, a local organization that serves refugee families, to support them in a programming, visioning, and stakeholder engagement process.
Their dream for a Clubhouse in which Pittsburghers and refugee families could build community together was envisioned in a series of collaborative workshops. Our volunteer efforts culminated in a 125-page design book that joined our two organizations to address social issues critical to the health of our city.
The jury commented:
- In Service of Refugees demonstrates a series of collaborative strategies for bringing varied constituencies together to vision, plan and fundraise for a common cause.
