One Brick
One Brick is a 501(c)(3) non-profit service organization organized in twelve cities in the USA. ==History==
One Brick was founded in San Francisco in 2001. The founders were three friends, who recognized that a large number of volunteers are put off the volunteer experience by the necessity to attend orientations and make a regular commitment to a particular organization. The goal of One Brick is therefore to provide a sustainable volunteer pool to non-profit organizations by making the volunteer experience convenient and social. With growth of the (San Francisco ) chapter, new One Brick chapters were founded in (New York ) (2002), (Chicago ) (2004), (Washington, DC ) (2006), (Minneapolis ) (2008), (Seattle ) (2009), (Orlando ) (2010), (Detroit ) (2011), (Silicon Valley )(2011), (Philadelphia ) (2012), (Los Angeles ) (2012) and (Boston ) (2012). Since it started, One Brick has contributed almost 500,000 volunteer hours (250 person years) to non-profit organizations in these cities. One Brick has also hosted over 20 work teams in New Orleans where they have contributed to assisting reconstruction efforts for communities affected by Hurricane Katrina.〔"One Brick helps Katrina victims", The Gazette (Maryland Community Newspapers), November 15, 2007 ().
