The Women’s Leadership Initiative (W.L.I.):

• Brings women together to share their interests.

• Offers women opportunities to make a real difference in our community.

• Educates women about Habitat for Humanity’s community work.

• Recognizes women for their philanthropic and volunteer activities.

• A network of area women business and community leaders who want to create positive change in the community!

The WLI provides multiple opportunities to invest yourself in the Habitat mission in a way that fits your schedule. Join today and help make a difference in the lives of families in Monroe County!
