H. E. Butt Foundation Information

The H. E. Butt Foundation serves communities in Texas and beyond with initiatives to encourage people to live whole, healthy lives. Our mission is driven by our Christian convictions, and we create opportunities for groups and individuals from diverse backgrounds. Much of our work takes place in the Texas Hill Country on 1,900 acres with 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 education initiative, and a camp offering free facility use to select groups—that together host over 27,000 people each year.
