Growing up, my family had close friends who were housing insecure. Being so close to them made me feel insecure. I didn't know what made one person or family able to have a home or not. Habitat for Humanity's Women Build program empowers women to take action to change their lives, including actively participating in learning how to build homes. My goal is to raise $1000 for Women Build. I also want friends to join me for the EmpowerHer Women Build Event on Thursday, September 12 at 5:30pm.
