GCI Women’s Network, Habitat for Humanity build Anchorage duplex

This month, the GCI Women’s Network partnered with Habitat for Humanity Anchorage and members of the Wells Fargo Women’s Team Member Network to build a duplex on Anchorage’s east side. Volunteers did construction work, ranging from trimming boards to raising walls, to help provide safe, affordable housing to families in need.

The build kicks off Habitat Anchorage’s “1,000 Women Strong” campaign, which aims to bring together 1,000 women who each contribute $100, pushing the campaign toward its $100,000 fundraising goal.

Since 1993, Habitat for Humanity Anchorage has built 92 new-construction houses and rehabbed an additional 14.
