OXNARD, CA - Women in Ventura County are invited to volunteer on May 10th during Habitat for Humanity’s seventh annual National Women Build Week. Habitat for Humanity of Ventura County is one of more than 300 Habitat affiliates nationwide hosting Women Build projects with the support of Lowe’s, Habitat’s longtime partner in the event.

National Women Build Week, held May 3-11, challenges women to devote at least one day to building simple, decent and affordable housing in their local communities. More than 52,000 women volunteers from all 50 states have participated in previous years.
