Women Build creates opportunities for women to build, lead and learn together on the construction site while supporting safe, affordable homeownership in our community.

At Beaches Habitat, Women Build is part of a full-home build, from the slab to the finishing touches, with volunteers working together to help make homeownership possible for a local family.

Quick Facts

  • No prior construction experience is required
  • Volunteers age 16 and older are welcome
  • Staff and trained leaders guide volunteers every step of the way

If you've ever wanted to volunteer with Beaches Habitat, Women Build Week 2026 is a great place to start.

Why Women Build Matters

 

Women Build exists because housing challenges affect women and families in significant ways across our community. Women Build is about women supporting women and coming together to help create safe, stable homes where children and families can thrive.

At Beaches Habitat, that work leads to more than a house. It helps build greater stability, opportunity, and hope for the future.
