May 2-6 (with a Dance Party TBD!)

Women Build is a signature Midcoast Habitat for Humanity event that brings women together to help build safe, affordable homes while strengthening our community. This hands-on experience empowers participants to work alongside neighbors, learn new skills, and make a tangible impact on housing affordability in Knox County.

No construction experience is required—just a willingness to show up, work together, and be part of something meaningful.

Build Shifts

Volunteer build shifts will take place on May 2, 3, 5, and 6

Celebratory Dance Party

Women Build wraps up with a celebratory dance party (date/location coming soon), bringing participants, sponsors, and supporters together to reflect on the impact made and celebrate the work accomplished throughout the week. This event is a chance to connect, share stories, and recognize the collective effort that makes Women Build possible.

Why Women Build

Women Build creates space for women to lead, learn, and give back in a powerful way. Volunteers contribute directly to the construction of affordable homes while building confidence, connection, and community. Together, we are addressing a critical housing need and supporting families working toward stability and long-term homeownership.

Last year, over 130 volunteers participated across 4 days and 8 build shifts, raising more than $15,000 to support Midcoast Habitat’s affordable housing efforts. This year, we are building on that momentum and aiming even higher.
