From Arrival To Belonging

Make A Positive Impact On Our New Neighbors

Help us reach our goal of raising $100,000 this holiday season. Every dollar you donate up to $25,000 will be DOUBLED thanks to a generous match from a local family foundation!


In this critical moment, the theme "From Arrival to Belonging" is not just aspirational; it is a necessity. As we approach a new administration with unprecedented challenges on the horizon, the urgency of our work has never been clearer. The refugee and immigrant families Hello Neighbor serves need our community's support more than ever.

It will take all of us—neighbors, advocates, allies—to ensure that our new neighbors not only arrive in Pittsburgh to rebuild their lives from scratch but truly have a sense of belonging.

From arrival to belonging, your support makes all the difference.

Our newest neighbors have traveled far to find safety and a fresh start. By the time they arrive in Pittsburgh, they have faced unimaginable challenges. And yet, their journey is far from over. 

Belonging begins with us - and it starts now with your support. Your generosity today helps Hello Neighbor connect refugees and immigrants with the resources they need to thrive in our community. As we face this crucial moment together, we need you. Your gift ensures that Pittsburgh remains a place of refuge and opportunity.

ACT NOW: Join us in making sure that belonging is not just a dream, but a reality—for our newest neighbors.

The Future for our Families and Hello Neighbor

To continue providing vital assistance to immigrant and refugee families, we rely on the support of our community.
