Video highlights from past events

Women make up less than 11% of the workforce in construction

and less than

of the trades.

An evolving workforce equates to endless job opportunities and strong salaries for skilled craftspersons.

As a way to educate and build female interest in the construction industry, Miron Construction hosts a FREE, annual event for local 7th through 10th grade female students. This event – “Build Like A Girl” – offers attendees a full day of hands-on experiences as well as an in-depth look at opportunities within the construction industry.

“Just wanted to share a huge THANK YOU to all the Miron Construction staff who helped make the Build Like a Girl event so successful. My daughter had an amazing day and learned so much. Your team was welcoming, knowledgeable, professional, supportive, and positive role models. Exposure to a variety of professions and the opportunity to experience different professions is so important for our youth. This type of event really helps to reinforce that their futures are limited by no one, and nothing should be a deterrent.”

“Thank you for this wonderful opportunity! It was well organized, and my daughter enjoyed the experience very much!”

“My daughter loved it, and she tried to play it cool, but she was super psyched she got to operate the big crane! Thank you for this opportunity she said she is coming back next year, too!”

“I just want to thank you SO much for this fantastic event. My girls have not stopped talking about it since we picked them up….You may just have added a girl or two to your ‘field.'”

“Thank you for putting this on for the girls. My daughter had a really good time and more importantly she learned that girls can do anything!”

“I want to thank you as my daughter had an amazing time. She had no clue what she wanted to do when she grows up and she does now.”

“Thank you for orchestrating such an amazing event for girls!…I cannot thank you enough for wanting to build your workforce, but at the same time giving back to the community building career awareness for girls."
