Ten year anniversary. With over 150 donors, more than any other year, the Project raised $129,340 for the Alzheimer's Association and Texas Children's. In addition to a fellowship, funds provided from the 1990 Project were used to construct a support area, or "mission control," for the children's mobile care unit.

2009 was a banner year for the Benefit Homes Project. For the first time in history, three homes were built for charity. The Project also reached another milestone—more than $5 million donated to Houston-area charities.

In 2009, BHP was presented with the Outstanding Community Service Organization Award by the Association of Fundraising Professionals. The Project was nominated by Texas Children's Hospital, a longtime recipient.

Another landmark achievement was the sale of Chesmar's Benefit Home—before groundbreaking! Land Tejas donated the homesite for a record 11th year in a row.

The other two '09 Benefit Homes were constructed by the teams of Highland Homes/Newland Communities and Trendmaker Homes/The Woodlands Development Co.
