Small gifts help build something big—especially when they’re doubled.🏡

Your $25 becomes $50 toward everyday jobsite supplies. Your $100 becomes $200 toward lumber and framing materials. Every gift helps move Michael’s future home in Eagle Lake closer to completion.

Through November 19, a generous anonymous donor is matching gifts dollar for dollar, up to $10,000 total, supporting our first Veterans Build.

Choose an amount meaningful to you. We’ll put it to work building a home.

Here's to continuous learning, building meaningful connections, and putting new skills into practice as we strive to become stronger, more effective leaders.

Five weeks. Countless helping hands. One incredible mission💙

On September 16, we welcomed the wonderful ladies of HomeTown Bank to our She Nailed It – Women Build site in Nicollet!

The construction site was buzzing as we prepared for the next concrete pour! These ladies spent the day helping with preparations, ensuring everything was ready, and working patiently around the construction schedule as another important phase of the foundation came together.

Building a home requires teamwork, patience, and attention to detail, and these women showed up ready for it all! A huge thank-you to HomeTown Bank for dedicating your time and energy to helping us build a brighter future for a local family.

We also want to recognize ATOM Hospitality and Number 4 Steakhouse for providing lunch and keeping our hardworking volunteers fueled throughout the day! 🍽

Community Insurance: Our Final She Nailed It Team of 2026! 🔨

On September 17, we welcomed Community Insurance to our Nicollet build site for the final day of our annual She Nailed It – Women Build!

With the foundation concrete poured just the day before, these ladies jumped right into the next phase of construction. From measuring and cutting lumber to securing boards and completing finishing work along the foundation walls, they helped put the final touches on an incredible five weeks of progress.

What started as a foundation slowly grew higher and stronger with each team that stepped onto the construction site. Every block placed, every board secured, and every hour volunteered helped bring this future home one step closer to becoming a reality.

A heartfelt thank-you to Community Insurance for helping us close out this year's Women Build on such a positive note!

And a special thank-you to ATOM Hospitality and Dino's Pizzeria for providing lunch and supporting our volunteers on this final day. 🍕

To every woman who picked up a tool, stepped outside her comfort zone, learned a new skill, or simply showed up ready to make a difference throughout these five weeks — THANK YOU! 💙

You've helped build more than a foundation. You've helped lay the groundwork for a family's future.

Here's to incredible years of women building homes, communities, and hope! 💪🏡

Our office staff and construction team have been busy this fall! Wow, time has flown. BUT we wanted to continue highlighting the amazing women and businesses who support our annual Women Build - She Nailed It!

🔨 ISG Team 2 - September 10th
Another incredible day of building with ISG! 💪🏡
These ladies rolled up their sleeves and continued making progress on our Habitat home in Nicollet!

With scaffolding now in place, our teams were able to take the next steps in building the foundation higher and higher. From placing rebar to stacking Fox Blocks, every step brings us closer to creating a safe, affordable place for a local family to call home.

A huge thank-you to ISG for showing up with enthusiasm and determination, and to Buffalo Wild Wings for providing lunch and keeping our volunteers fueled throughout the day!

🔨 Jones Law Office
A little rain wasn't going to stop these ladies! 🌧️💪
Our Jones Law team made the most of a rainy day by trading the outdoor build site for some indoor projects!

These hardworking women spent the day measuring, cutting, and laying flooring, carefully applying adhesive and bringing a beautiful new floor one step closer to completion.
It's a great reminder that building a Habitat home takes many hands, a variety of skills, and a willingness to jump in wherever help is needed!
Thank you to the ladies of Jones Law Office for spending your day giving back, and to Wooden Spoon for providing a delicious lunch for our volunteers!
Rain or shine, we're building more than homes. We're building brighter futures!🏡

🔨 Scott Equipment - September 15th
Building strong foundations, one block at a time! 🏡🔨

We had the pleasure of welcoming the incredible women of Scott Equipment to our She Nailed It – Women’s Build in Nicollet! These ladies jumped right into the action, continuing the process of stacking Fox Blocks and helping bring the foundation of this future Habitat home to life.

It's amazing to see the progress made throughout this year's Women’s Build. Each team has picked up where the last left off, and together, they're helping turn a foundation into a future home.
A big thank-you to Scott Equipment for lending your time, energy, and teamwork to our mission!

And a special shout-out to NaKato for providing lunch and helping keep our hardworking volunteers going! (P.S. If you're craving a nice comfort meal during these lovely fall days, their beef and chicken commercials are the best!)

Every block placed and every hour volunteered makes a difference.💙
