World Habitat Day Wall Build at Market Street hosted by Habitat MCTX
THE WOODLANDS, TX -- The community is invited to celebrate World Habitat Day with Habitat for Humanity of Montgomery County, TX (Habitat MCTX) with a wall build at Market Street on Friday, October 7 starting at 12:30 p.m.
The celebration will highlight a global movement emphasizing the right for everyone to a safe place to call home. At the event walls will be built by volunteers and Habitat Staff that will later be used as the framework for a home constructed in Habitat Montgomery County’s Cedar Creek community in Conroe.
After the walls are complete, the community will be invited to sign encouraging messages and blessings for the family soon to occupy the home. Learn about the many opportunities to contribute to the Habitat MCTX organization though volunteering, sponsoring, or sharing information. Younger family members can enjoy face painters, yard games and a balloon artist as part of the event.
World Habitat Day at Market Street is sponsored by Market Street, Entergy, McCoy’s Building Supply and Ovintiv. For every dollar raised during the week of World Habitat Day, Ovinitv will match it dollar for dollar up to $5,000. At 4:30 pm the walls will be transported to Cedar Creek community to be part of a new home for a family.
Habitat Montgomery County is joining forces with Habitat organizations from across the world to raise awareness about the importance of safe and decent shelter for all.
“We are grateful to Market Street for hosting us for a second year, and to all the sponsors supporting our mission to make the dream of homeownership a reality for families in our community,' stated Vicki Johnson, Executive Director.
