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. 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.
In 2018, I traveled to Honduras for my first global village trip with Habitat for Humanity. During that trip, I was able to experience first-hand what a huge impact that H4H has on communities. This October, I'm joining Habitat Chicago's Women Build for the second time to help knock these homeownership barriers down.
You can make a difference. Help me reach my fundraising goal so we can change the lives of these women and keep making progress.
Change happens one person at a time. I appreciate any support you can give.
