Homeownership is one of the most dynamic tools a person can use to build a solid and stable future. Unfortunately, however, it is a tool that far too many women do not have access to currently. From the gender pay gap and its impact on credit profiles to uneven child care responsibilities that consume time and financial resources to higher rates of mortgage denials despite superior payment performance, the hurdles keeping women from homeownership are high.
This October, I'm grabbing my hammer, strapping on a tool belt, and joining Habitat Chicago's Women Build alongside 500 determined women to knock these barriers down. Together, we will help our fellow women become homeowners with Habitat Chicago, a nonprofit committed to building a world where everyone has a decent place to live.
