Indiana Mineral Aggregates Association (IMAA) presented the 2022 Keystone Award to Ken Mulzer, President of Mulzer Family of Companies, at the association’s annual Winter Workshops & Award Banquet held in Indianapolis last week. The award, first given in the late 90’s, recognizes an individual in the aggregates industry who has shown exceptional leadership and outstanding dedication to advance the goals, growth, and well being of the Indiana aggregates industry. During the presentation, an IMAA Representative explained further, “By definition, the keystone is the topmost stone of an arch, popularly thought of as especially holding the others in place.”
Growing up in the third generation of a family whose legacy in the aggregate industry is still growing strong throughout Southern Indiana and beyond, Ken Mulzer has been a dedicated supporter of Indiana aggregates his entire career. From his first role at Mulzer Crushed Stone cleaning the shop at age 15, Ken has exhibited the traits of a tireless industry advocate in many ways, especially within the inner workings of IMAA. Most notably, Ken was a major supporter of the creation of WLMA (Women Leaders in Mining & Aggregates), he served on the Board of Directors and the Executive Leadership Panel, and represented membership as President in 2021. Ken also participated on the Build Indiana Council as an appointed IMAA Representative for three years. He is a 2022 Inductee of the Indiana Ready Mix Concrete Association Hall of Fame, joining a distinctive class of accomplished Ready Mix leaders, including his father, Ken Mulzer Sr., who was also the first recipient of the IMAA Keystone Award in 1998. Congratulations Ken!

Our Annual Helping Habitat Charity Golf Outing, held in late September, was another HUGE success. Through the support of many golfers, corporate sponsors & volunteers, Mulzer Family of Companies was able to present a check for $28,321.35 to Perry County Habitat for Humanity!
We were excited to learn that this donation will go directly towards building a new home in Tell City for a family of four, located not too far from our Main Office. Tim Mulzer, COO, was at the site recently to attend the ground-breaking and help ‘turn some dirt’ to mark the special event.
We’re proud to support our local Habitat for Humanity chapters each year through funds raised at our Annual Charity Golf Outing, in-kind product donations, and employee volunteer build days, to aid in their mission to build homes and hope in our communities.

Mulzer Family of Companies has been proudly supporting local Habitat for Humanity chapters for over 40 years, and in 2019, we hosted our First Annual Helping Habitat Charity Golf Outing to raise funds for one local chapter within our operating region. 100% of the funds raised are donated and our first chapter recipient was Crawford County Habitat for Humanity.
The Second Annual Helping Habitat Charity Golf Outing took place on-line in 2020, however we were still able to raise over $20,000! Perry County Habitat for Humanity was the chosen chapter recipient and they were able to quickly put those funds to use by purchasing an existing home near our Main Office in Tell City, Indiana. This home was the first ever ReHab project for the Perry County chapter.
Josh Harris, Executive Director of Perry County Habitat, gave us the opportunity to bring a crew in for one of the first work days on the project: Demo Day! 22 employees, including interns and their supervising mentors, along with a host of others from all corners of Mulzer Family of Companies, showed up on a sweltering hot morning to take down and salvage cabinets & trim, and remove all of the carpeting and drywall.
Giving back, especially through organizations that provide valuable services & opportunities to everyone in our communities, is a top priority for employees at Mulzer Family of Companies. The fact that this ‘new’ ReHab home was literally right in our backyard was icing on the cake!
The Third Annual Helping Habitat Charity Golf Outing took place on September 22, 2021 raising over $28,000 for Habitat for Humanity of Spencer County. Ground was broken on a new home in Chrisney, Indiana earlier this year and Volunteer Teams from Mulzer Family of Companies will be on site for this one as well!
