Support Perkins and Will in Women Build

The life-changing benefits of affordable homeownership are immense: it improves school performance, decreases crime, improves financial outcomes, and enhances the health and well-being of children and adults – just to name a few. But due to gendered barriers like the pay gap and its impact on credit access, and uneven child care responsibilities that limit time and financial resources, it is far more difficult for a woman to own a home than a similarly situated man.

Perkins and Will is doing something about this. We’re linking arms, picking up our power tools, and joining in Habitat for Humanity Chicago's Women Build to knock these barriers down. Alongside 400 determined women, we will raise $275,000 to help build affordable homes that will be owned by women! Then, we're hitting the Habitat build site in October to help construct the homes. 

Help us reach our goal so we can change the lives of these women forever and prove that there is nothing a committed group of women can’t achieve when they come together. Every donation - big, small, or somewhere in between - helps to build a strong, stable, and equal future.

Our team is fundraising with a goal of $10,000. Paired with the $7,500 that our Chicago office has pledged to the cause, we hope to contribute a total of $17,500!

Thank you for your support!

We have a couple builders missing here but huge shout out to our crew of our cocktail-slinging, tip collecting, Habitat loving ladies who made this event a huge success (as well as the support staff not pictured)!

We did it! Proceeds from our Women Build themed happy hour have tipped us past our $10,000 goal. Let's keep it going!

Great turnout for our office-wide "Beer Time" happy hour to raise funds for Women Build. We surpassed our goal of $10,000 thanks to the continued generosity of our fellow colleagues and friends!
