Sept. 23, 2009 - PRLog -- Trinity Habitat for Humanity with corporate partners, XTO Energy and Encore Acquisition Company, will blitz build two houses in downtown Fort Worth’s Sundance Square to celebrate Trinity Habitat’s 20th Anniversary, September 24-28, 2009.

The first wall will be raised on Thursday, September 24, at 9:00 a.m.  Habitat partner family Leticia Castaneda will be joined by Fort Worth Mayor  Mike Moncrief, Gage Yager and Jim Hubbard of Trinity Habitat, Vaughn Vennerberg  and Nicki Northcutt of XTO Energy Inc., Jon Brumley and Jonny Brumley of Encore Acquisition Company and Johnny Campbell of Sundance Square in raising the first wall.

XTO Energy and Encore Acquisition employees will build the houses side by side in the Sundance Square parking lot located at 3rd and Main Street.  This unprecedented event in downtown Fort Worth is generously hosted by Sundance Square and will assist in the visual display of building homes and hope.

The two Habitat partner families whose lives will be changed through this historic venture are both single moms; Blanca Jimenez mother of Meleny (8) and Leticia Castaneda mother to five boys: Jesse (15), David (12), Jr. (9), Anthony (7) and Angel (4).  Each family will join the volunteers in building their homes before they are moved to the respective lots in Northside Fort Worth on Monday, September 28, 2009, following a dedication ceremony that morning.
