Cambridge Homes hosts Fund-Raiser for Habitat for Humanity

Friday, May 21st, 2010

Recently Cambridge Homes hosted its second annual fund-raiser for the Collin County chapter of Habitat for Humanity.  While last year’s event was held at the Cambridge model home at Chapel Hill in McKinney, this years fundraiser was held at the model home in CAMBRIDGE GATE in Far North Dallas.  This year attendees donated more than $600 to the Habitat for Humanity while enjoying hors d’ oeuvres prepared by Regarrio’s and desserts contributed by Whole Foods.  Event coordinator for Cambridge Homes was Christie Douglass.  In attendance were Cambridge homeowners, area merchants and business people, City dignitaries, representatives of Habitat for Humanity, and, of course, enthusiastic members of the Cambridge Team.

STREET TREES For a Greener Texas

Thursday, May 13th, 2010
At Cambridge Homes, we believe the most beautiful neighborhoods - the ones that grow lovelier as time goes by - are those with mature trees growing along the streets in front of each home.  Because we are committed to creating beauty and value for the long term in our luxury patio home communities, we created “TREES for a Greener Texas”, a program of planting street trees in each community in which we build our luxury patio homes.  As part of our “TREES for a Greener Texas” program, honoring the homeowners of each new luxury patio home we build, we plant one or more Red Oaks, Live Oaks, or Cedar Elms along the street as close to the street as the city will allow. 
 
Our “TREES for a Greener Texas” program celebrates each of our homeowners, while helping to enhance and sustain our local ecosystems.  As part of this program, now in its eighteenth year, we have planted nearly a thousand trees!  As these trees grow and mature, they will provide a lasting legacy while beautifying, sustaining, & restoring our world.
