Each day, from now until May 17, women from various businesses and organizations will spend a day working on the Habitat for Humanity homes in Perth Amboy, as a part of Women Build 2024.
Tuesday, May 7, 2024 11:27PMStarting Tuesday and continuing for the next 10 days, Habitat for Humanity in New Jersey is focusing on women learning how to build houses, in an effort called "Women Build Week."
"Women who may have shied away from volunteering on a build site now have the opportunity, and are welcome to step forward and become empowered," said Liz Decoursey, CEO of Morris Habitat for Humanity. Families each volunteer 300 hours of time working on their homes. Being selected is a huge accomplishment.
