Women Build

Much more than a simple building project, Women Build brings women together to create something special, a home for a working family. Whether as a member of the construction crew, a support team member or raising funds for the project, women have created amazing results while engaging in activities that inspire a sense of community.

We believe that everyone deserves to live in simple, decent housing on terms they can afford.  It’s a moral outrage that this occurs in the richest state in America.

The Habitat for Humanity “Women Build” program gives women the opportunity to do something about it. Women have built over 450 Habitat houses nationwide, including four in Hartford.

A Women Build project is not intended to exclude men. Rather, it is designed to provide a safe and encouraging “female friendly” environment where women feel comfortable learning and performing home construction. By encouraging women to volunteer for Habitat, we will increase the number of experienced volunteers enabling us to build more homes with hard-working families in need in greater Hartford.
