Habitat for Humanity is one of the programs I've been involved in for several years now. NASCAR sponsors Home Depot, Lowes, Georgia Pacific and others are involved as well as the Wives Auxiliary.

Habitat for Humanity Dedicates Women Building a Legacy Home:

Members of the Winston Cup Racing Wives Auxiliary, along with more than 70 local women volunteers swung hammers, climbed ladders and picked up power tools to help the Hunt family build their home. Women built the home as part of Habitat for Humanity’s "Women Building a Legacy" program, which gives women the opportunity to move children out of poverty housing one family at a time. Kris and Ann Marie Hunt, along with their six children, will receive the keys to their new home at the dedication service on Sunday, August 25th. Media are invited to attend and will have opportunities to interview Winston Cup Racing Wives Auxiliary members including Linda McReynolds, Debbie Parrott, Lisa Pemberton, Donna Lepage, Carolyn Yates and Deanna McSwain; homeowners Kris and Ann Marie Hunt, Habitat officials and volunteers.

Women celebrities, state first ladies and women from all walks of life are working together to build a legacy of better housing for children whose health, growth and potential are threatened by substandard housing. Realizing they can transform children’s lives by simply ensuring that children have decent and safe places to lay their heads at night, "Women Building a Legacy," an 18-month program of Habitat for Humanity International’s Women Build department, empowers women to address the crisis of substandard housing and adds to the more than 350 Habitat houses built by women since 1991
