Welcome to CREW
Mission and Goals
Based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Community Renovation empowering Women (CREW) is a non-profit service organization whose mission is “to build community and improve the status of women and children through building and renovating structures for agencies that primarily serve women and children.” We accomplish this mission by teaching our mostly female volunteers construction skills that build confidence, afford them independence, and provide them opportunities to engage communities through service.

We start potential projects by visiting your site to discuss how well the services we can provide match your project needs. We can then make recommendations, establish priorities, and work collaboratively with you on a plan.
