#WOMENBUILD2019
Coming together to build stronger, safer communities.
Women Build Day provides the opportunity for women to take a proactive step in serving their communities.
Any woman who wants to learn how to build and construct a home is invited to join us. No experience is necessary. Volunteers work under the guidance of construction professionals, and also alongside other volunteers and future Habitat homeowners. Whether you are learning new skills or simply adding a few to your tool belt, this is a rewarding experience for all involved, and improves the community that you share.
Women Build is also a terrific way to involve your friends and family of all ages in crucial work with a lasting impact. Women helping women sends a positive and powerful message. You can also come alone, and make new friends. The atmosphere is collaborative and friendly.

What you need to know!
What is it?
Since 1991, Women Build volunteers from all walks of life have come together to build stronger, safer communities.
Though our neighborhoods are comprised largely of women and children, they are also the population’s most likely to be affected by poor living conditions. Our Women Build events provide the opportunity for women to take a proactive step in serving their communities.
Does it cost anything to participate?
To raise awareness for the 40th Habitat Home being built in Natrona County, there is a suggested donation amount of $40. Each participant is encouraged to raise a minimum of $40, but any donation will be accepted. All donations are due to the Habitat Office by Monday, August 19th.
Will I receive anything for fundraising?
All Women Build participants will receive a t-shirt and catered lunch. All participants who raise $500 or more will receive a 25th Anniversary engraved Habitat for Humanity, The Heart of Wyoming hammer.
Are men allowed?
Yes, men are welcome. In fact, the future homeowner or part of the training staff may be men. Women Build provides a place for women to learn the skills needed to build a home, but that does not exclude men from participating.
Are there other ways to get involved?
