About Welcome Week

One week. Every city. Millions of doors opening across America.
Because the most powerful force for human connection isn't an app, an algorithm, or a government program. It's an invitation.

The US Chamber of Connection is mobilizing communities, neighborhoods, and organizations nationwide to do one simple thing this September — open the door to a new friend.


Who will you invite? 

Welcome (verb): to invite someone to belong.

About Pittsburgh Chamber of Connection

Pittsburgh built the bridges and skyscrapers that built America. This Welcome Week, we're building something just as lasting — one invitation, one open door, one new neighbor at a time.
