About Us

 

The Brownson House and the Vernon C. Neal Foundation partnered with the City of Washington to build the new Vernon C. Neal Sportsplex. The building is located at the entrance of the Washington Park, across from the swimming pool. The facility offers the Brownson House a new and exciting venue while also offering additional recreational programs to the Washington community and the surrounding area. The building was completed in the Fall of 2004. The complex offers indoor soccer, inline hockey, indoor lacrosse and other recreational opportunities. The Brownson House is a nonprofit organization located on Jefferson Avenue and was founded in 1926. Continually giving back to the community, The Brownson House offers a wide variety of activities.

Mission Statement:
The Brownson House and Vernon C. Neal Sportsplex provides quality youth and adult recreation, education,  and character development through team effort in Washington, PA and the Tri-State Area.

Brownson House Auxiliary
 Since 1926 the Neighborhood House Auxiliary (the Brownson House) has been a vital resource for the Brownson House. The ladies have not only raised money, they have also volunteered their time to help with the programs.
Presently their major fundraiser is the annual Fall Fashion Show.  The organization has raised tens of thousands of dollars for the youth and adults of this community.
The Auxiliary is currently recruiting volunteers for the organization. If you have a few hours to help the youth living in the Greater Washington Area then this is the organization you’ll want to join.  A rewarding experience is awaiting you.  Please contact the Brownson House at 724-222-1440.
