LEFT Beaufort Jasper Academy for Career Excellence (BJACE) receives a donation from PWB to assist with tools and equipment for their construction programs. ABOVE In addition to providing a support group for women in construction, PWB also helps educate young girls on the possibilities of construction as a career. Fellow PWB Member, Leah England with Bellwether Design + Build participated in Career Day at the Hilton Head Christian Academy to promote The House that She Built.
Locally, the Hilton Head Area Home Builders Association established a chapter of PWB in 2020 to promote industry professionalism and support members through education, networking, and professional development. The Hilton Head PWB Chapter was the first of its kind in South Carolina and already has 120 members. The organization helps women boost career success, and in turn, these women help mentor the next generation and bring awareness to their profession. It’s a win-win for the industry and for women in the lowcountry.
