Inspirational images from National Women Build Week

Each year, Habitat for Humanity hosts National Women Build Week, which Lowe’s has generously supported since 2008. This year, thousands of women from across the United States came together in the week leading up to Mother’s Day and devoted at least one day to help build affordable housing in their local communities.

To help celebrate the weeklong event, we asked volunteers and supporters to tag their social media activity during events across the country with the #WomenBuild hashtag. Inspirational images and stories poured in throughout the week across multiple channels of social media. Here is just a small sample of some of our favorite photos posted to Instagram:
