Шаблон:Infobox Organization Hello Neighbor is a United States non-profit organization headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, that was founded in 2017 by Sloane Davidson.[1] This organization aims to partner recent refugees with families already living in their communities.[2] The catalyst for Hello Neighbor was Thanksgiving 2016, when Davidson stumbled onto an Airbnb program that was matching American families with refugee families for Thanksgiving dinner.[3] Davidson signed up and got a call saying she had been matched with a family of Syrian refugees in her neighborhood.[4] The two families connected and became close friends. It was this interaction that inspired Davidson to launch the non-profit.[3]

Hello Neighbor's goal is to help refugees become more self-sufficient[5] by partnering them with friends who can help them both navigate city systems and have a little fun in the process.[6][7]
