Charlotte's Women Build

Habitat Charlotte’s Women Build is an annual program in which women volunteers construct an entire Habitat home. Since building the nation’s first all women house in 1991, Habitat Charlotte has built 9 more "all women” houses. This year we are building one more "all women" house, moving an 11th family into a decent, affordable home. The Women Build project empowers women to participate in Habitat for Humanity’s work by teaching new skills in a non-competitive, inclusive environment of cooperation, partnership and fun.

Women Build 2008 kicked off on May 10 and included a visit from Kristin Wells of HGTV! On Saturday, June 14th, Candy and Potter from 107.9 the Link joined Habitat Charlotte at the Women Build site. Pictures from their visit are below and you can watch the fun footage here!

The Women Build site is 909 Rowan, Charlotte, NC. (Click address for directions) 

No matter what experience you bring to the table, we want you to join us for our next Women Build Project. To be on our email list and learn more about the build sign up for Women Build Email List at the top of the page. 

Please note that the Women Build is only made possible through the efforts of the women involved. Therefore a donation is requested from participants.
