Homeownership is one of the most dynamic tools a person can use to build a strong and stable future for women and their families. However, it is a tool that far too many women are unjustly denied access. From the gender pay gap and its impact on credit profiles, to uneven childcare 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 my tool belt, and joining Habitat Chicago's Women Build alongside 600 determined women to knock these barriers down. 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 so we can help these women unlock the benefits that homeownership provides and prove that there's nothing a group of committed women can't do. 
 
Change happens one person at a time. I appreciate any support you can give - big, small, or somewhere in between. 
 
Thanks for your support!
Tiffany
