I’m joining Habitat Lake-Sumter’s Women Build to help construct a triplex that will soon be home to THREE incredible families.
I’m raising $X to support our build, and I’d be so grateful if you’d help me make a little construction magic happen!
Let’s show the world what women can build—together. Please cheer me on and donate to my fundraising page: (LINK TO FUNDRAISING PAGE)

I’m so excited to be part of Habitat’s Women Build this year!
My team and I will be rolling up our sleeves to help build a triplex that will become home for three amazing families. That’s triple the impact, and I couldn’t be more pumped!
I’m working to raise $X to support our build —and I’d love your help making it happen! Every dollar brings us closer to seeing three families start their next chapter.

I’m joining Habitat’s Women Build because strong women build strong communities—and I need your help to make it happen!
I’m raising $X to support our triplex build, and yes, that means we’re turning dollars into drywall and donations into doorways.
