2010 – a year of refocus and change for Wo-Built. We love making dreams come true for our residential clients, but we would like to add to the mix – projects that effect many people and making their lives better.

Therefore, we would like to be more involved in projects that are geared towards the community – such as community housing, health and wellness centres, daycare centres, youth and community centres, housing for the elderly and private community centred businesses – and we would like to be there from the start at the design stage.

We started in 2006 with the goal to help women succeed in the building trades and we are looking for opportunities to provide mentoring and training more successfully. We believe that some community building projects can be ideal to further this goal.

What could be better than providing a necessary building while helping women to build a future for themselves.
