Habitat for Humanity hosts 16th Annual Women Build Kickoff Party
Habitat for Humanity of Lee and Hendry Counties will mark its 16th annual Women Build with a Kickoff Party on March 2 at 6 p.m., taking place at The Forest Country Club in Fort Myers.
Officially kicking off the 2026 Women Build season, this signature event offers an evening of empowerment and fundraising, highlighting Habitat’s life-changing impact and stories of hope in Lee and Hendry counties.
Empowering women and families through safe, decent, affordable housing is the cornerstone of Habitat's annual Women Build campaign. Since 2011, Women Build in Lee and Hendry Counties has partnered with 31 female-headed families to build strength and stability for their children through local fundraising and volunteer efforts. Last year, 79% of Habitat’s future homeowners were female-led households, highlighting the ongoing need for affordable housing opportunities for women.
Together, the organization aims to raise $500,000 to support female-headed households partnering with Habitat to achieve homeownership—providing them with a stable foundation for generations to come. Because when a family can build a better life in a stable and affordable home, we are all empowered.
Tickets cost $75 per person, and include beer and wine, heavy hors d’oeuvres, and an official 2026 Women Build t-shirt. To purchase tickets or a table, please visit https://www.habitat4humanity.org/womenbuild
