"We are extremely grateful for KBR Inc. and the Houston Fire Fighters Foundation's continued support."

"A great city has great partners," Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner said. "A great partner of the city of Houston is KBR and not just for the contribution being made today, but for contributions throughout the years. Today KBR is stepping up again."
