For the first time, we’re opening five individual registration spots for every Women Build day (except May 3) throughout March 2027! Previously, individual spots were limited and released closer to the event, but this year, you can secure your spot early!

Whether you’re joining on your own or with a friend, this is your chance to roll up your sleeves, make a difference, and help build stronger communities!

Space is limited to just five individual participants per build day, so don’t wait to reserve your spot!

Each March, Women Build brings together hundreds of volunteers, community partners, and future Habitat homeowners for a month-long celebration of empowerment, teamwork, and community impact. Together, we raise awareness and funds for affordable housing while helping local families build strength, stability, and a brighter future through homeownership.

While Women Build celebrates women’s leadership and involvement in building homes and communities, everyone is welcome! Men are encouraged to participate, too.

Everyone deserves a safe, stable, and affordable place to call home. Yet women, particularly single mothers and women of color, continue to face barriers that can make achieving affordable homeownership more challenging.

  • Nearly 30% of families headed by single mothers lived below the poverty line in 2025, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
  • Women working full time earned approximately 82 cents for every dollar earned by men in 2025, based on median weekly earnings reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Women Build helps shine a light on these challenges while bringing people together to be part of the solution. It’s about more than building homes—it’s about building confidence, learning new skills, creating meaningful connections, and making a lasting difference in our community.

Whether you’re an experienced builder or have never picked up a hammer, there’s a place for you at Women Build! No construction experience is necessary. Our skilled construction professionals will guide you as you work alongside fellow volunteers and future Habitat homeowners.

All participants receive lunch and a commemorative Women Build 2027 t-shirt.

The impact of Women Build doesn’t end when the tools are put away. There are so many ways to stay involved, support Habitat for Humanity of Greater Sacramento, and help more local families build a brighter future through affordable homeownership.

Build All Year Long: Make a monthly gift to help create more opportunities for affordable homeownership. Consistent support throughout the year helps Habitat build stability, opportunity, and a foundation for families to thrive.
