Female stars of the stage and screen will be out-and-about with power tools this weekend when they take part in Habitat For Humanity’s first ever Women Empowerment Build.

From May 22-24, stars such as Kate Linder, Molly Burnett and Arianne Zucker of “Days of Our Lives” will join the charity and the Entertainment Industries Council, Inc in California to build homes for the needy. Joining them will be Hunter Tylo, Alley Mills and Kimberly Matula of “The Bold & the Beautiful”; Cassidy Freeman of “Smallville”; Vanessa A. Williams of “Soul Food” and “Lincoln Heights” and Holliston Coleman of “Medium”.

“Many of our families have women as heads of household,” said Habitat for Humanity San Fernando/Santa Clarita Valleys CEO Donna Deutchman. “We wanted to do more than just have a day where women build.We wanted to help our mothers and their daughters realize they too can be active agents of change to make a better community for themselves and their neighbors. The women coming to this event are at the top of their professions and want to encourage others by their example, and by sharing their success.”

Hunter Tylo’s new video, posted on You Tube for the American Epilepsy Outreach Foundation (AEOF), was created to raise public awareness about epilepsy. A celebrity spokesperson for AEOF, she is also promoting their First Annual Wings of Hope Benefit to be held June 13 in Chicago.

Epilepsy is the most common neurological disorder in children, often leading to death. According to AEOF, “Epilepsy is more common than Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy and cystic fibrosis combined.”

Despite those statistics, due mostly to a lack of publicity, the condition is generally thought of as easily treatable and more of an embarrassing condition than life threatening. Tylo, who lost her son last year in an accidental drowning during a seizure, knows better.
