Habitat for Humanity Tucson and longtime national partner Lowe’s are hosting “how-to” clinics for volunteers in conjunction with the ninth annual National Women Build Week.
The Lowe’s clinics will teach participants how to safety use hand and power tools.
Where: 7105 E Speedway Blvd, Tucson, AZ 85710
When: May 21 at 8 am
To sign up for the clinic, volunteers should contact Habitat Tucson at (520) 497-2384 or email ginah@habitattucson.org
Similar clinics are taking place across the country and are open to women interested in volunteering at a local Women Build site during National Women Build Week.
National Women Build Week encourages women across the country to help families build strength, stability and self-reliance through housing in their communities. The project will support “Home for the Holidays”, a nationwide initiative by Lowe’s and Habitat to build or repair 1,000 homes in time for the holidays.
Lowe’s helped launch National Women Build Week in 2008, and provides the support of Lowe’s Heroes employee volunteers. They conduct Lowe’s clinics at stores to teach volunteers construction skills. This year, Lowe’s contributed $2 million to National Women Build Week. Since 2003, Lowe’s has committed more than $63 million to Habitat and helped nearly 5,500 families.
