Join the AIA|LA Team for Habitat for Humanity’s Women Build Project
Support Values that are Core to Our Chapter
AIA|LA is organizing a team of women to work together for San Gabriel Valley Habitat for Humanity’s Women Build.
Participating members will collaborate at the job site to build shelter and generate community on Friday, May 12. (Part of Habitat for Humanity’s three days of construction at the Desiderio development in Pasadena.)
The idea of chapter representation for the event was Past-President Debra Gerod’s, with 2017 Vice-President /President Elect Tania Van Herle, AIA Boardmember Carissa Oyedele and WiA Past Chair, Patricia Rhee, AIA, rapidly committing to take part. Do join them.
Whether you are a Architect member, Associate, Boardmember, or part of the chapter’s thriving committee culture, we invite you to participate in this event that provides housing to families in need.
Team members will support the project financially ($100 contribution per person - find out more here) and work together on site. Team limit 30. SO—jump on it.
Habitat for Humanity brings people together to build homes, communities and hope. Its Women Build program provides a female-friendly work site that empowers women to take leadership roles and learn new skills while building a home with a hard-working family. Women Build is supported by diverse groups of women — professionals, students, congregations, management teams, community leaders, book clubs, garden clubs, friends, and neighbors — who join together to raise funds and build.
