Women Build Strength, Stability, and Self-Reliance
Habitat for Humanity has long recognized the critical role women play in their communities as well as their specific barriers to homeownership. That’s why Habitat’s Women Build program brings together future homeowners and dedicated volunteers like you to help women build a better future for their families and communities.
Women Build is about More than building!
Our goal is to empower women to help families build strength, stability and independence. At Habitat, we have the unique ability to provide opportunities for this with hands-on learning, and, when offered the right tools, women can succeed in changing their communities.
What is Women Build?
Since 1991, Women Build has brought women and their allies together to raise, recruit their friends, and build homes side-by-side with women in need of affordable housing.
Women Build is 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. NO experience necessary to volunteer!
The Impact of Housing on Women
In LA County, 60% of renters cannot afford where they live. The existing wage gap between men and women makes it more difficult for women to access affordable housing. The result is an increasing number of women living in substandard, unsafe, and unaffordable conditions. The need for affordable housing has increased due to COVID-19 and unemployment.
Recent years have taught us a home is more than just shelter. It’s a safety net, our prescription for health, and the foundation for the futures we build. At San Gabriel Valley Habitat for Humanity, Women Build has grown to become a signature event attended by hundreds of women (and their allies) from all backgrounds, coming together to build homes, communities, and hope. To date, this event has helped house families in Glendale, Pasadena, Monterey Park, Baldwin Park, Monrovia, and other areas throughout the San Gabriel Valley, through volunteering, donations, and advocacy.
As the Women Build movement continues to grow, our hope is to empower more women, inspire change in housing, and raise funds to help more families.
