Title
5. Proclamation Recognizing the Month of March as Habitat for Humanity Women’s Build Month.
Strategic Priority
Good Government
Description

Since 1991, Women Build volunteers from all walks of life have come together to build stronger, safer communities. Habitat for Humanity Women Build events provide the opportunity for women to take a proactive step in serving their communities. Women Build opportunities are available across the U.S., and any woman who wants to learn how to build and construct a home is invited to join. No experience is necessary. Volunteers work under the guidance of construction professionals, and also alongside other volunteers and future Habitat homeowners. Whether women are learning new skills or simply adding a few to their tool belt, this is a rewarding experience for all involved, and improves the shared community. Women Build is also a terrific way to involve friends and family of all ages in crucial work with a lasting impact. Women helping women sends a positive and powerful message. Women can also come alone and make new friends - the atmosphere is collaborative and friendly.
