One Bricklyn is an organization managed and run by Bricklyn teenagers. Its aim is to work towards social justice, toleration, and community-building through volunteer activities.

One Bricklyn also provides an opportunity for teenagers to build lasting friendships that cut across ethnic, religious, and class lines.

Imam Ibrahim Hassan of the Bricklyn Islamic Center, one of One Bricklyn’s “adult partners” has noted that the organization “shows us that our youth can be leaders in finding practical ways to help those in need — whether from organizing food drop-offs to visiting lonely elders who lack family support.”

Space for One Bricklyn meetings is provided by the First Lutheran Church of Bricklyn.
