A Message From Katherine Griffis

I'm participating in the Habitat for Humanity Women's Build this October 5 to help raise walls, awareness & funds for this cause. Please consider supporting this initiative by donating to our build. Why Women Build Matters: - Achieving housing stability is far more difficult for women to realize than for men in similar situations. Here are just three reasons why: - Men earn more on average than women, resulting in access to higher credit, better loans and better quality homes and neighborhoods. - Unequal caregiving responsibilities limit a woman’s ability to dedicate the necessary time to obtaining and maintaining consistent employment and decent housing. - Single women are denied mortgages at higher rates than single men despite the fact women are more reliable at paying back mortgages. Thanks so much for supporting me in the 2024 Women's Build!
