Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity

Twin Cities Habitat's eighth WomenBuild project provides the opportunity for hundreds of 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 the Twin Cities.

No current construction skills? No worries. Training is provided. The project will be supervised—start to finish—by an experienced female site supervisor from the Twin Cities Habitat staff.

Kick it up a notch: Team Leader Days

Team Leader Days provide a chance to change your community—and leave your friends wondering why you get to wear the biggest hard hat.

Its easy.

• Recruit 13 friends or colleagues; they will be the sole construction crew for your day.
• Raise $1,500 to fund your day's volunteer work
• Be creative: invite your book club, organize the women's council at your workplace, sell your husband's golf clubs. It's all good.

You and your team will attempt new tasks, rejoice in each other's strengths and provide one more family with a solid foundation for the future.
