Last Saturday Habitat for Humanity invited over 40 women from the Santa Barbara community to the construction site for a Women Build Day. We had a great crew made up of ladies from Women In Development, the Habitat Family Partnership committee, a few family mentors and of course the future homeowners. It was such a fun and festive day as women from all professions joined together to paint, putty, caulk and sand. Fittingly pink hard hats, balloons and bandannas were on display!
A huge thanks to the Women In Development ladies who provided lunch, donuts, and tons of enthusiasm. Their support made the day a total success! And because we like to include everyone, we did have a few men at the site throughout the day, evidence below.
