Join Women Build at Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity!

The Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity Women Build Program empowers women to come together as volunteers and philanthropists to address the growing affordable housing crisis. After all, affordable housing is a women’s issue. The goal of Women Build is to support low-income households through affordable homeownership and to empower women through meaningful volunteer experiences and teambuilding.

We tap into the power of community by offering women the opportunity to leverage their strengths, skills, and resources to address the growing housing crisis. Women Build involves over 1,000 volunteers each year. Involvement ranges from fundraising to construction! Join us in partnering with families to build or make critical home repairs in the community. No experience necessary.

Become a Team Leader

Recruit a team of volunteers and raise $1,500 to sponsor one day of work on site. It’s excellent team-building for businesses, church groups, and other organizations—or a great way to give back with friends and family.

Become a Women Build Regular

Volunteer regularly, learn new skills, and work alongside diverse groups from our community. Your commitment as a Women Build Regular makes you an asset on site and contributes to the success of our builds.

Volunteer

It takes many volunteers to complete the Women Build projects each year. Learn new skills and meet other members of the Women Build community on site!

Donate

Our projects are not possible without your support. The Women Build community builds and fundraises for the program. Any level of contribution is appreciated. Gifts are tax-deductible.
