Morgan County Habitat for Humanity and longtime national partner Lowe’s are hosting “how-to” construction clinics for women volunteering during the eighth annual National Women Build Week. Taking place May 2–10, National Women Build Week encourages women across the country to devote at least one day to building simple, decent and affordable housing with Habitat in their local communities.

Similar clinics are taking place across the country and are open to women interested in volunteering at a local Women Build site during National Women Build Week. A teaching interior paint skills clinic will be held at Lowe’s of Hartselle at 1807 Highway 31, April 28, at 6 p.m.

To sign up for the clinic, volunteers should contact Landis Griffin at 256–340–9609.

Lowe’s helped launch National Women Build Week in 2008, and each year provides the support of Lowe’s Heroes employee volunteers and conducts how–to clinics at stores to teach volunteers construction skills. This year, Lowe’s contributed nearly $2 million to National Women Build Week. Since its partnership began in 2003, Lowe’s has committed more than $63 million to Habitat and helped nearly 4,000 families improve their living conditions.
