This year a group of Westhaven residents have joined together to form the Westhaven Women for Women Build with the goal of providing enough volunteers and monetary support to sponsor 1 of the 10 build days. The group has already raised $3,225 of their $7,000 goal through the fundraising efforts of 30 volunteers and two generous $1000 donations – one from the Westhaven Foundation and one from The Southern Land Company.
