The CBC WomenBuild Team visited Greater Grand Crossing last Thursday and continued exterior siding installation on House #3. Amazing day with over 60 committed women, working on these 4 homes for women-led families in the Chicago Area. Let's keep the fundraising going everyone!!!
Homeownership is one of the most dynamic tools a person can use to build a strong and stable future for themselves and for their family. 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 joining Habitat Chicago's Women Build alongside 780 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 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.
