ABOUT THE BUILD:
This build is actually the new construction of two, connected single family homes being built at the same time! This means twice the number of volunteers are going to be needed each day!
New construction is also exciting as volunteers will be building the home from the foundation up! From framing, to siding, drywall, paint and more, we need YOUR HELP to make this dream of homeownership a reality for TWO FAMILIES this year!
This project is also this year's Women Build home so a majority of the house will be built by local ladies!
