This week we want to shoutout Hartizen Homes for helping build up and support our mission to pioneer housing solutions in Central Florida. We asked their leadership team to share more about why they decided to support our mission:
We so appreciate your partnership and support of Habitat Orlando & Osceola. Please let us know what drove our two organizations to begin working together?
At Hartizen Homes, our purpose goes far beyond building houses — it’s about building stronger communities and creating opportunities for families to thrive. As a new home builder based right here in the Greater Orlando area, we’re deeply rooted in this community — it’s not just where we build, it’s where we live, work, and raise our families. That shared sense of purpose and place is what drew us to partner with Habitat for Humanity Greater Orlando & Osceola County.
From the very beginning, we were inspired by Habitat’s mission to make safe, affordable housing accessible to more families, and we recognized how closely that aligns with our own core values. As a local builder committed exclusively to serving Greater Orlando, we believe it’s our responsibility to use our resources, talents, and platform to strengthen the communities around us.
Partnering with Habitat allows us to live out that purpose — combining our passion for building with our commitment to service and working together to create lasting impact for families across Central Florida.
What is your mission when it comes to philanthropy? How does working with Habitat Orlando & Osceola help further that mission?
At Hartizen Homes, our mission when it comes to philanthropy is simple but deeply meaningful: to find purpose through serving others. We believe that building homes is just one part of building a stronger community — the other is investing our time, resources, and profits back into the place we call home. That’s why we commit 10% of our profits to local causes that directly support families, strengthen neighborhoods, and create opportunities for a better future.
Working with Habitat for Humanity Greater Orlando & Osceola County is a natural extension of that mission. Their work aligns perfectly with our belief that safe, affordable housing is the foundation for stronger families and thriving communities. By partnering with Habitat, we’re able to put our passion and expertise to work in a way that multiplies impact — helping more families achieve the dream of homeownership and creating lasting change right here in Central Florida.
For us, it’s not just about building homes; it’s about building hope, stability, and opportunity for the community we’re proud to be part of.
