I’ve worked really hard to find a good, stable home for my kids…this is a blessing.” – Ciaira, Habitat Homeowner
Women Build
strong women build strong communities
Our Women Build fundraiser raises money to fund affordable homeownership opportunities for women in our community! Teams of 7 sponsor a build day for $350 and volunteer on a construction site in Southeast Fort Wayne.

empower women through homeownership
No more moving
I don’t want my kids to experience moving to different houses and schools constantly like I did. Our home will provide stability and their childhood will be full of many memories in our new home. — Alma
Our first home together
My daughter and I are already dreaming of how we’ll decorate our first home for Halloween and Christmas next year. — Katie
Creating generational wealth
Having the opportunity to become a homeowner and pass this down to my daughter when the time came…that was the end goal. I was going to do all I could to make that happen. — TiAnna Morris-Barnes
