Every Woman Can Change the 901.
Join us for the 2026 Women Build Luncheon presented by First Horizon featuring a special fireside chat with Kim Fields.
When women come together, they build more than homes. They build opportunity, connection, and lasting change in their community. The Women Build Luncheon brings women from across Memphis together to celebrate that impact and support our work of building homes, strengthening neighborhoods, and creating hope across the 901.

ABOUT THE WOMEN BUILD LUNCHEON
Memphis Habitat will host a lively and inspiring luncheon that raises funds to support Habitat’s Women Build program. Set inside the historic Peabody Memphis, this annual gathering celebrates the start of Women Build and brings our community together to support affordable homeownership across the city.
Guests will enjoy an engaging program that includes a powerful story from a Habitat homeowner and a fireside chat with a nationally recognized voice whose story reflects the heart of Women Build.

WHAT IS WOMEN BUILD?
Women Build brings women across Memphis together to support Habitat’s work and invest in stronger neighborhoods.
Through this initiative, women lead the way in raising awareness and support for affordable homeownership while encouraging one another to take part in building a better future for our community.
Women Build celebrates the strength, leadership, and generosity of women who believe everyone deserves a safe and stable place to call home. It is an opportunity for women to come together, lift one another up, and make a lasting impact.
When women build, communities rise.
