Women Build

Let’s Build!

Our 2025 Women Build registration is now open and will begin in the spring! The Women Build program provides awareness of the need for affordable housing and the opportunity for women to take a proactive step in serving their communities. Our build sites are user-friendly and led by professionals who train and guide volunteers through all phases of construction. You will leave from your build experience feeling empowered with new skills – knowing you brought a family one step closer to achieving their dream of homeownership.

Why Women Build?

Women Build unites women from all backgrounds to tackle the housing crisis affecting families in our community, working to ensure everyone has access to a safe and affordable home. Our construction supervisors create an empowering environment where volunteers can learn new skills and make a meaningful impact. Women Build welcomes volunteers of all genders and gender identities to join in this important mission.

Help Revitalize the Richmond Community, Today

We help as many families as we can, but the lack of affordable, safe housing remains a critical problem in our area. Habitat for Humanity in the Richmond Metropolitan area is committed to making affordable and safe housing a reality for low-income families. And with the help of donations, volunteers, proceeds from our ReStore, and hard work from our home buyers, we’re making that dream possible for hundreds of residents in the Richmond Metropolitan area.
