WOMEN BUILD

2021 Women Build Kickoff is

Thursday, October 14th

Women Build is an annual project in which Habitat for Humanity St. Tammany West empowers women, without excluding men, to build homes, enabling them to positively impact the lives of families by making home ownership a reality. Often, over 400 volunteers contribute over 2,065 volunteer hours during October to help build these homes in West St. Tammany Parish. Women possess all that's needed to create dramatic change in our community. From volunteering to donating, there are many ways to contribute to the success of this program:

W.A.T.C.H. is a group of dedicated ladies who ensure Women Build continues to thrive in western St. Tammany. It began in 2009 when a group of women accepted the challenge by pledging $1,000 a year. In recognition and appreciation of their support, members wear a hand-crafted glass lapel pin created by Carol Lapari designs. In 2020, W.A.T.C.H. women donated $38,000 toward building safe, affordable housing.

If you would like to pay monthly on your W.A.T.C.H. membership, please contact Leighanne Weeks via email or phone at (985) 893-3172 ext 244 to get set up on a monthly recurring payment.
