I am very excited to share that THIS October, I'm grabbing my hammer, strapping on my tool belt, and joining Habitat Chicago's Women Build (Brookfield Team) alongside 600 determined women. Together, we will help our fellow women become homeowners with Habitat Chicago, a nonprofit committed to championing healthy neighborhoods by investing in resident priorities, building quality homes, and supporting homeownership.

You can make a difference by helping me reach my fundraising goal and prove that there's nothing a group of committed women can't do.

Homeownership is one of the most dynamic tools a person can use to build a strong and stable future. However, it is a tool that far too many women are unjustly denied access (e.g., gender pay gap and its impact on credit profiles, uneven childcare responsibilities that consume time and financial resources, or higher rates of mortgage denials despite superior payment performance). Without question, the hurdles keeping women from homeownership are unnecessarily high.

Change happens one person at a time. I appreciate any support you can give - big, small, or somewhere in between. Thanks in advance for your contribution towards making someone else’s future brighter.

Thanks!
Jennifer

P.S. The build date is October 20th so there is plenty of time to give!
