Habitat Lowell Women Build
2020
Women Build is about empowering
women to learn construction skills together
while building safe, decent, affordable homes in our communities.
Women Build brings women together from all walks of life to address
the housing crisis facing millions of women and
children worldwide.
Meet Delilah, our newest partner
family and help build a home for her and her three
children in Billerica.
Habitat Lowell is looking for women to join a team and work
alongside our construction team.
No construction
skills required. Safety training & instruction provided.
Women helping women! This is your chance to get out of your house,
with excellent safety & social distancing precautions, to make a
difference with affordable
housing! Take that proactive step
