The Women Build program challenges women
to build a better future for the children
of central New Jersey by addressing the
problem of substandard housing.
The Women Build
Workday program is designed to help raise funds for Women
Build while giving individual women an opportunity to volunteer
as part of the Women Build effort. Women all over NJ and others
from NY & PA have joined together to help build modest, affordable homes
for hard working, low income families in Lambertville,
Bernardsville & Franklin Township.
Our exciting news! We raised $100,000 and finished our first funded and built
RVHFH Women Build house located in Franklin Township (Somerset).
We have now opened registration on our next Women Build home in
Bridgewater.

sponsor to help us reach our $100,000 goal for our Bridgewater Women Build House.
