Women Build

Habitat for Humanity of South Palm Beach County's Women Build project provides the opportunity for women—of all ages, backgrounds and skill sets—to take a hands-on approach to solving the affordable housing crisis, by coming together—as volunteers and donors—and building a simple, decent home for a hard-working, low-income family in our area.

The mission of the Women Build is to nurture, recruit and train women to build simple, decent, and affordable houses.

At Women Build:

• Women will provide all labor and leadership—from framing to landscaping—in a supportive and empowering environment.
• Women will step out of their comfort zone, acquire new skills, make new friends and discover unexpected strengths.
• The vast volunteer pool of women in our area will mobilize—better equipping us to tackle the growing need for affordable housing across the region.
• The dream of affordable, sustainable homeownership will become a reality for one of the many area families in desperate need of stable housing for their children.
• Participants will make a lasting difference to themselves, to a partner family and to the community. It doesn't get any better than that.

Our next WomenBuild is set for Saturday, May 8, 2010 - CLICK HERE to view the details on our website calendar.
