women build

show the community what the collective power of women can accomplish!

The goal of Habitat for Humanity Manitoba’s Women Build program is to empower women to help families build strength, stability and independence through affordable homeownership.

Under the guidance of construction professionals and experienced Women Build crew leaders, volunteers develop their building and leadership skills through hands-on experience at a working construction site. Women Build welcomes people of all genders and backgrounds.

Manitoba’s Women Build program was established in 2005 and has constructed 21 homes to date.The Women Build committee hosts multiple events throughout the year to raise the funds needed to construct an affordable home for a working family to purchase.

Our goal for 2025 is to raise $150,000 to build the 22nd Women Build Home in Winnipeg.
