Empowerment, investment, and community are the pillars of this campaign and our goal is to build strength, stability, and self-reliance through homeownership. Women Build is a movement that harnesses the power of women from all across Austin to build, advocate, and fundraise for safe and affordable housing in partnership with Austin Habitat for Humanity.

Join us as we roll up our sleeves, pick up some hammers, and make a lasting impact in the lives of women in Central Texas.

Together, we can build more than just houses; we can build hope, resilience, and a brighter future for generations to come.
