Women Build holds a special place in my heart.

During the last 8 years working at Fox Valley Habitat, I have played a major role in coordinating and advocating for our Women Build program. By far, the greatest honor through the years has been working with and cheering on many single mommas. They came to us feeling defeated and hopeless and we have watched them grow and gain confidence while going through our homeownership program. When they realize that after all the worrying and hard work is over they will finally have an affordable home to safely raise their children, to watch them grow and thrive, it's one of the most amazing things to witness. The relief they feel is very clear and it's felt a thousand times over with their gratitude.

The support from the community has been a blessing for these women and your support in this mission to raise awareness of the challenge's women face accessing affordable housing can change the life of future families forever.
