This week we attended the Hard Hat and High Heels Mixer in celebration of Women in Construction Week!

We had such a fantastic time connecting with inspiring women across the industry and sharing more about our Hard Hat Courage initiative and the upcoming Massachusetts Hike for Hope.

Events like this remind us how powerful community can be in driving awareness, building partnerships, and lifting up women who build our world literally and figuratively. 🛠️💛

Looking forward to continuing the collaboration and momentum!

🌄 Introducing our first Construction Hike for Hope 🦺💛

We’re launching the Construction Hike for Hope in Massachusetts to raise awareness around mental health and su***de prevention in the construction industry.

Construction workers face unique pressures and disproportionately high su***de rates. This hike is about breaking the stigma, supporting one another, and standing together as a community.

More than a hike, it’s a call to action.
Let’s take steps toward hope. 💛🏗️
