Habitat For Humanity 2024

Habitat For Humanity of Greater Sacramento hosted a month-long Women Build 2024 event in March. Women from our firm joined to help the cause by painting, installing fences, and designing Habitat Playhouses. They worked hard in the cold, rainy weather.

Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day

BEN|EN had a great time at Introduce a Girl to Engineering Day (IGED) in late February – a collaboration between the ASCE Sacramento YMF and Sacramento State College of Engineering and Computer Science. We hope the event made a lasting impression on the curious, young women interested in learning more about engineering. It is truly rewarding to mentor potential future engineers. We look forward to being a part of this event next year!
