Women Build
Since 1991, Habitat for Humanity’s Women Build has brought together volunteers from all walks of life to create stronger, safer communities. Open to women and anyone interested in learning home building or repair, Women Build events across the U.S. empower participants to take action—helping address housing challenges that disproportionately affect women and children while making a lasting impact locally.

"I like to work on the Women’s Build. You get to meet new people, learn new skills (or reminded how to do something you haven’t done in a while), and have fun! Sometimes you learn which muscles you haven’t used in a while. Sometimes it is shoveling and putting up safety barriers, sometimes it is putting up siding or drywall. Whatever you are doing, you are doing it with others, so the task is not daunting. It is rewarding to see how much is accomplished each day. Don’t worry if you haven’t used tools in a while, or ever, because there is always someone to help you. Join us!"

"I find the Women's Build a very special event. Habitat recognizes the value women bring to their sustainable housing focus. Women have long been the prime 'engine' of all that goes on in the home. Now women are able to share their talents and sisterhood during a day of serving in a transformational role. This is an empowering experience whether it is one's first build, or just one of many over the years."
