Day 1 of House #9

Our first day on-site was great! God blessed us with beautiful weather... and lots of amazing volunteers! With over 30 women working hard we were not only able to meet our goals for the day but we exceeded them beyond our expectations! It's always great to see what a group of people can accomplish when working together for God's purpose.
Day 1: All walls [interior and exterior] framed and raised!

Getting Ready to Raise the First Wall!

Okay... "On 3! 1..2..3" Up it goes!

Excitement for Women Build in Tulsa!

The Women Build group here in Tulsa has had an exciting beginning to our spring 2009 build season! Along with our other donors; Lowes made it possible for us to break ground this spring here in Tulsa by providing sponsership for House #9.
Trisha Yearwood the Country Star has also teamed up with Lowes and Habitat For Humanity: Women Build to get the word out about this great organization! Trisha spent a couple days with us here in Tulsa building and promoting Women Build. She is also going to be building on a Women Build house in her home town Atlanta.
A few of our Women Builders had the pleasure of meeting and working with Trisha during her time at Habitat-Tulsa.

Thank you Trisha for what you are doing for Women Build here in Tulsa and around the world!

This is going to be a great build season! We encourage all women in the Tulsa area to "Volunteer-UP"! Starting House #9 tomorrow, come build with us!
