WHAT IS WOMEN BUILD?
Women Build works to recruit, nurture, train, and empower women in Montgomery and Prince George's Counties to address and help solve the housing crisis in their own neighborhood.
While Women Build is focused on the inclusion of women in the work of building homes, the initiative does not exclude volunteers of any gender or gender identity, nor does it promote discrimination of any kind. Local organizations are encouraged to recruit a diverse volunteer workforce and in your virtual engagements.
Women Build does not exclude men or others, rather it encourages women to become empowered to break down stereotypes, learn the skills needed to build a home, show what we can do when we come together and most importantly, have fun making a difference.

Women Build History
In 1991, a group of women in Charlotte, N.C., came together to build stronger, safer community and completed the first women-built Habitat for Humanity house. With that event, the seeds for Habitat for Humanity’s Women Build program were planted. Habitat for Humanity Metro Maryland participated in its first women build program in 2010 and has been empowering women in the metro area to address and help solve the housing crises in their own neighborhood. Since that time Women Build has helped to complete numerous homes for low-income families in Montgomery and Prince George’s Counties.
