Women Build is Habitat’s volunteer program for women who want to learn construction skills and make a difference by building homes and communities.   Created by Habitat for Humanity International in 1998, Women Build brings together women from all walks of life to address the housing crisis facing millions of women and children worldwide.  To date, Women Build has built over 1,200 homes worldwide for families in need.

The ladies of GHS Every Woman helped landscape the new home of the Shell family and learned a great deal about how to prepare the ground and lay mulch & sod.

Thanks to everyone who participated and special thanks to our teammate Paula for organizing this!
