Did you Know that 90% of Our Homeowners are
Women-Led Households?
Though our neighborhoods are comprised largely of women and children, they are also the population’s most likely to be affected by poor living conditions. Our Women Build events provide the opportunity for women to take a proactive step in serving other women in their communities. For our homeowners that are women, owning their own home allows them to build up their family’s strength, stability, and self-reliance. Their mortgages are almost always lower than their rent, freeing up money for savings or even necessities they weren’t able to afford before. Some women are even able to work on their college degrees and improve their careers due to the burden of financial stress being reduced.
Opportunities to work on Women Build projects are available to any woman who wants to learn how to build and construct a home. No experience is necessary. Volunteers work under the guidance of construction professionals and also alongside other volunteers and future Habitat homeowners. Whether you are learning new skills or simply adding a few to your tool belt, this is a rewarding experience for all involved and improves the community that you share.
Women Build is also a terrific way to involve your friends and family of all ages in crucial work with a lasting impact. Women helping women sends a positive and powerful message. You can also come alone and make new friends. The atmosphere is collaborative and friendly.
