Hollywood, SC – Sea Island Habitat for Humanity celebrates its annual Women Build week, taking place from April 6th to April 13th, 2024. This empowering initiative brings together women from all walks of life to contribute their skills, time, and resources to build strength, stability, and self-reliance through shelter. In addition to volunteers giving their time and talent, they support our fundraising goal of $100,000 through peer-to-peer and individual donations. This goal will fund the materials used to build the house they are working on this week.
The Women Build week is a testament to the power of women uniting to make a positive impact in their community. Participants will roll up their sleeves alongside future homeowners to construct safe and affordable housing, fostering a sense of camaraderie, empowerment, and achievement.
"Women Build is not just about constructing houses; it's about building hope, confidence, and resilience," said John Rhoden, Executive Director of Sea Island Habitat for Humanity. "This event provides a platform for women to showcase their talents, learn new skills, and make a tangible difference in the lives of families in need."
This year our Women Build home is being built for a female homeowner. The significance of a woman becoming a Habitat for Humanity homeowner is profound. It represents empowerment, security, and independence. Through homeownership, she breaks barriers, gains financial stability, and builds a foundation for herself and her family.
Sea Island Habitat for Humanity’s Women Build week promises not only to build houses but also to strengthen bonds, foster empowerment, and inspire positive change. Together, women will break barriers and build communities where everyone has a decent place to call home.
