Los Angeles, CA, May 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On June 17, 2023, Habitat for Humanity of Greater Los Angeles (Habitat LA) will host its 19th Annual Power Women, Power Tools® build day. This year’s presenting sponsor is City National Bank (CNB). As a recurring sponsor of Habitat LA’s signature events — including several Power Women, Power Tools® events — City National continues to support women empowerment and low-income Angelenos throughout Greater Los Angeles.
For nearly two decades, the Power Women, Power Tools® build day and fundraising event has celebrated the collective efforts of thousands of “Power Women” who help Habitat LA build dozens of affordable homes. Past participants have built the foundations for loving communities by working side by side with Habitat staff, homeowners, donors, and volunteers. This year, Habitat LA will host power women across various industries using their collective voices to inspire strength, stability, and self-reliance and empower women to push past the limits!
“Building a better future means acknowledging the efforts of women in our communities, especially those who are opening doors for economic stability. We’re excited to be building Habitat homes alongside so many power women,” said Linda Duncombe, Habitat LA board member and City National’s Chief Marketing, Data and Digital Officer. “City National Bank is honored to support the incredible work Habitat does to help families achieve the dream of owning a home.”
The Power Women, Power Tools® build event propels Habitat for Humanity’s goal of ending substandard housing worldwide by making decent, affordable housing a matter of conscience action in local communities.
“Power Women, Power Tools® is a transformative event that connects people through a common purpose – to build homes and create communities. With the support of City National Bank, we are bringing together women from diverse backgrounds and careers, so that our partner families create lasting strength and stability through homeownership,” said Erin Rank, President and CEO of Habitat LA.
All proceeds from the event will support Habitat LA’s efforts to build and repair homes throughout greater Los Angeles. For more information and additional sponsorship information, visit: bit.ly/PWPT23.
