NWCI supports swapping ‘Heels for Hammers’

Published: Sunday, May 23, 2010


The National Women's Council of Ireland (NWCI) is urging women to swap their 'Heels for Hammers' and join Habitat for Humanity (HFH) Ireland's Women's Build in Romania this October.
"The National Women's Council of Ireland is proud to support this project with Habitat for Humanity.

Women participating in the build will work with local women and learn about their lives. They will be helping families to escape poverty," says CEO of the National Women's Council of Ireland, Susan McKay.

The team will be comprised entirely of women and participate in HFH's local home-building efforts. During 2-10 October volunteers will work with local volunteers and families to help to physically build homes, communities and hope.
