We cultivate wholeness in people and institutions for the transformation of communities.

The H. E. Butt Foundation is an operating foundation focused on spiritual formation and health in families and children. Our headquarters are in Kerrville, Texas, and we have offices in San Antonio, though much of our work takes place deep in the Texas Hill Country on 1,900 acres situated along a breathtaking stretch of the Frio River Canyon. There, we run five programs—a youth camp, a family camp, an adult retreat center, an outdoor school, and a camp that provides free facility use to qualifying groups.

Outside the Canyon, we operate a sixth program dedicated to fostering community engagement on behalf of families and children in the places we live and work—San Antonio, Kerrville, and Real County.

Our values remind us who we are and how we act

We often ask our team members some of the most common questions we get from people in your shoes. Glenn Echols worked here for more than 30 years. His answer was so good, we made it into this short video that will tell you a lot about life (and work) at the Foundation.
