Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Building Bureau's mission is to further the social impact of public organizations and civic institutions through architecture, while promoting stewardship of the built environment through research and educational programs. It accomplishes this through three program services: 1) Pro-bono, expanded architectural services for non-profit organizations, 2) Traditional architectural services for non-profit organizations with project funding, and 3) Research, education, and outreach.

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
2) Architectural services for nonprofit organizations with project funding | 2A) Building Bureau continued from 2022 construction administration services for the Bodhi House (previously named the Summer Immersion Program), an 18,000 square foot 36-bed dormitory for the Tibetan Buddhist organization Namchak Retreat Ranch located in rural Western Montana. The facility was opened to the public in July of 2023 and officially dedicated in October of the same year by honorary guests from Tibet and Nepal Buddhist community including Rabjam Rinpoche. Several small retreats and ceremonies have occurred in the building since its opening, directly serving an estimated 200-300 individuals - many of them from marginalized backgrounds - just in the last half of 2023 alone. The building is heated and cooled using on-site geothermal energy and electricity use is supplemented by rooftop solar panels. A greywater reclamation system recycles water from showers and sinks for use in toilets, thus reducing waste of water in a dry climate. Rainwater harvesting from the roof provides irrigation for exterior plantings, further reducing water demand in a Montana ecosystem sensitive to drought and wildfire. 2B) Building Bureau also provided architectural design services for a 1,500 square foot welcome center on the Ranch for the same Tibetan Buddhist partner. The project, designed using structurally insulated straw bale panels that were prefabricated offsite, began construction in November of 2023 and will be completed in the summer of 2024. The use of organic material as a construction material substantially reduces the carbon footprint of the project; rooftop solar panels will provide an on-site energy source. Once open to the public in 2024, the building will serve as an entry point to the Namchak Retreat Ranch and its Buddha Garden and serve hundreds of members of the general public per year. 2C) A third project in this program category is the Helambu Gaunpalika Hospital, a ten-bed medical facility in rural Nepal, a district underserved by healthcare. Building Bureau provided discounted design services to the project donor, Tsering's Fund based in Montana, arranged a feasibility study and geotechnical analysis through its local partners in Kathmandu, and made two visits in 2023 to the site in Nepal to support the project. The organization produced a design presentation and physical model for a public meeting on site with local stakeholders (in January of 2024). The hospital, designed for sustainable materials like locally-sourced rammed earth walls and slate tile roofing, is currently in a fundraising phase. If completed, it would serve a population of 18,000 people not currently supported by a hospital. 2D) A masterplan for the Rising Hope Christian Center in Bor, South Sudan is a fifth project Building Bureau took on in this program category in 2023. BB offered heavily discounted design services to US-based Africa Sunrise Communities for a 2-hectare master plan of the project, consisting of a 500-student boarding school with both classrooms and accommodation, a large dining hall and gathering space, a administrative office and staff housing block, a public clinic, and a 250-seat chapel. The project, designed around a common recreation area and garden, features compressed earth block walls using local soils. The project is currently in a fundraising phase. Once completed, it is intended to directly serve 500 schoolchildren and approximately 40 staff members and indirectly serve countless more in the community of Bor, South Sudan.$0$72,779
1) Pro-bono, expanded architectural services for non-profit organizations | 1A) Building Bureau continued providing construction administration services to the Bethany Mission Society for their project the Bethany Home for Children, a four-story orphanage for 100 children in southern India that has been under construction since August of 2022. The United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF) estimates there are 30 million orphaned and abandoned children across India - a population equal to that of the state of Texas. These children lack basic shelter - not to mention healthcare or education - and are vulnerable to child trafficking. Due to cultural gender biases, the majority are girls. In 2023, Building Bureau staff made two trips to the site to inspect construction progress and support the local architectural team. The building was designed to maximize passive cooling without the need for costly and carbon-intensive air-conditioning systems. At the roof level, large photovoltaic canopies will shade the building while providing an on-site renewable energy source. 1B) Building Bureau (BB) also provided pro bono architectural services to Tiger Track Nepal for their lodge and guest cottages under construction in Nepal. Home to a Community-Based Anti-Poaching Unit (CBAPU), the small ecolodge is located just outside of Bardiya National Park, a conservation area in Nepal's lowland Terai region that is home to many endangered species of wildlife. BB made two trips to the site in 2023 to provide construction administration services, and organized a fundraising campaign on GoFundMe with drawings and a video. The project is constructed from rammed earth walls which, due to their natural thermal mass, will ensure passive thermal stability despite the typical hot and humid temperatures of the region. For roofing, traditional thatch construction continues an indigenous building method and provides thermal insulation. 1C) For Mane Dada Organic in Nepal, Building Bureau also supported the construction of a cottage in the Kavre Earth Village through two site visits and construction administration services. The ecovillage, located an hour and a half outside the Kathmandu Valley, is focused on ecological and economic sustainability that balances traditional agrarian livelihoods and regional tourism.$2,754$15,373
3) Research, education, and outreach | Building Bureau staff built partnerships with Montana State University's School of Architecture in 2023, leading undergraduate design studios focused on Montana's veteran population and the sustainability of earth construction, respectively. Building Bureau also gave a three-day workshop in Puebla, Mexico for the architecture faculty of the Tecnológico de Monterrey university system, with a focus on thermal comfort, embodied carbon, and architectural craft and concluding with a hands on workshop in traditional cob (clay and straw) construction techniques. In September 2023, Building Bureau organized, with partner Dr. Yutaka Sho of Syracuse University, a panel discussion titled "Unmaking Capital: Alternative Practices in the Global South" for the Architecture Lobby's ABC School 2023. The virtual discussion included speakers from Mexico, Rwanda, Botswana, Kenya, and Japan with a focus on material practices and architectural design outside the United States and Europe.$0$1,873

The travel budget is large due to the trips to Nepal where much of the services are provided.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/FormAndLineReferenceDesc0Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16
ReasonableCauseExplanation/ExplanationTxt0Unfortunately, May 15 fell while the staff was traveling in Nepal on business which consumed their attention in preparing for, and during the travel. We intended to file an extension but missed that, so instead of filing an extension late, we felt it best to complete this 990-EZ and get that in. As a relatively new 501 c 3 we still have some processes to iron out.
