Have you ever wanted to know how to do some very basic tasks at your home? Want to know how to deal with power tools, hang a shelf, repair broken drywall, lay laminate flooring, learn about fixing a plumbing leak and installing a deadbolt or peephole in the door?
“BUILDING WOMXN UP” is an empowerment workshop for womxn who need basic home renovation and safety skills without the exorbitant cost of hiring contractors who may, or may not, take advantage of their inexperience.
We recognize that resources are limited for so many who are marginalized and/or living with violence and, having pressures of needing tasks done at home can create added stress.
You can sign up in the spring for a free 4-part workshop series designed to allow survivors of gender based violence, an opportunity to gain knowledge and skill in the area of basic home renovation and repair; with a particular emphasis on safety items. The workshops are done in partnership with local Home Depot stores.
Wow your friends and family and teach your own daughters!
Thank you so much to The Home Depot for showing community spirit and empowering women's lives!
