History[edit]

The initiative was founded by the Czech-Australian architect Jiri Lev on June 27, 2021[3] on the model of Architects Assist he had established in Australia, with the aim of providing assistance to tornado victims in 2021 South Moravia tornado and Břeclav on June 24, 2021 and the vision that pro bono services will become a regular part of architects' professional activities.[1][4][5]
