For KMI International, partnering with Habitat Orlando & Osceola’s team feels like working with family, said Genesis Salazar, KMI’s Human Resources Manager.

The project management and construction consulting firm has had a direct impact on Habitat Orlando & Osceola’s mission. Over the last few years, KMI International’s financial investment in Habitat has sponsored homes and provided support for events such as Habitat’s annual Builders Blitz and Women Build.

“Being a part of the homeowner journey is what our team enjoys most,” Genesis said.

For KMI’s team, there’s a reward to building alongside Habitat homeowners and being a part of making their dreams come true, Genesis said. It’s satisfying to know that each homeowner has a stake in their dreams too thanks to partnership requirements such as homeownership classes and sweat equity.

“When you volunteer or donate you see the benefit of each dollar,” Genesis said. “It’s rewarding for your team members. Each employee is leaving a footstep in that homeowner’s life that they’ll never forget.”
