About Women Build

Women Build empowers women and families through safe, decent, affordable housing thanks to local fundraising and volunteer efforts. This build provides the opportunity for women to take a proactive step in serving their communities.
 
Together, we will complete a house by Spring 2026 to support a family partnering with Habitat to achieve homeownership, providing them with a stable foundation for generations to come. The 2025/2026 Women Build home is located at 608 Lemmon Ave, Rapid City.
 
No experience is necessary. Volunteers work under the guidance of construction professionals, and also alongside other volunteers and future Habitat homeowners. Whether you are learning new skills or simply adding a few to your tool belt, this is a rewarding experience for all involved, and improves the community that you share.
 
Women helping women sends a positive and powerful message.
 
Volunteer days are held weekly on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. If interested in a different day, please contact Abbie@blackhillshabitat.org.
 
With your help we can make a difference one hammer and nail at a time!
Yes, I want to build!

Ways to Get Involved With Women Build

Become a fundraiser or lead a fundraising team

Gather 3 of your friends, neighbors or colleagues to set a $1,000 fundraising team goal (that’s only $250 per team member)! By combining forces, you can empower women through affordable homeownership. Accomplishing this goal gives each team member 2 volunteer days!

Register as a women builder

Don’t want to fundraise? We still want you to build with us! Register to be part of an outstanding group of area women who are working toward a brighter tomorrow! Ticket price includes a bandana, networking with amazing women and the empowerment of working alongside strong women.

Donate now!

Together, we will raise $200,000 toward the Women Build project! BTW, you don’t have to be female to help fund the efforts.

Provide a meal

Be a meal provider for dedicated and hard working women building for our community. Provide a catered meal, grill out, sandwiches, pizza, taco buffet, side dishes! We could go on! This might be perfect for you or a group to provide a meal for 10-12 builders.
