“Do what you can to show you care about other people, and you will make our world a better place.”  —Rosalynn Carter 


Women Build is Habitat for Humanity’s annual, worldwide event engaging women in an effort to support affordable, quality housing. From now through National Women Build Week, March 8-13, I will be joining with women throughout our community. We are uniting to empower local Habitat families. I believe that everyone deserves a place to call home, and I am asking for your help. I may not be able to roll up my sleeves and swing a hammer this year, but I have a goal to raise at least $1,000 to help build a roof to shelter and foundation from which this family can thrive. Please donate today and show your support. 


About the Bridges Family 

Mary was born and raised in Belle Glade. She retired as a Correctional Officer with the Florida Department of Corrections and serves as an Ordained Elder at Straightway Church. Mary is the custodial guardian of four elementary school aged children, Joseph (11), Arniyah (9), Ruth (7), and Isabella (6) in addition to 25-year-old Ricky. The house will be crowded and happy as they grow up together; Mary is looking forward to seeing the children play in their own backyard.
