Habitat for Humanity's
Women Build Project 2010

Habitat for Humanity has a special volunteer program for women who want to work together to build a home. When a house is designated as a Women Build Project, women are specifically recruited to participate at all levels and phases of the home-building process. Men are welcomed as well, but the build gives women of all skill levels a chance to learn, practice, and enhance their construction skills in an encouraging environment.

In June 2010, the Springfield/Eugene Habitat affiliate broke ground on its second Women Build project. Its first Women Build project was 14 years ago in 1996.

Women Build projects across the U.S. and throughout the world have helped construct more than
1,750 houses.
