Homeownership is not only a powerful wealth-generating tool, but it also improves health, educational, and social outcomes for homeowners and their households. Unfortunately, women face disproportionate barriers to homeownership access due to lower incomes, uneven care responsibilities, and mortgage denials and rates. Due to historical racist housing policies (like redlining, predatory lending, racial covenants, and more) and the stark wealth gap between Black and white Americans, Black women have an especially hard time becoming homeowners.

I'm excited to take part in an effort to break down the gendered and racial barriers to homeownership by participating in Women Build 2024. Please help support my team and the important work of Habitat for Humanity by donating to my fundraising page. We really appreciate your support!

Thank you!
