The Harvey E. Najim Charitable Foundation
Building Hope for Future Generations
Established in December 2006, the Harvey E. Najim Family Foundation is aimed at helping children’s charitable organizations in the greater San Antonio area. Mr. Najim used $75 million of the proceeds from an equity partnership transaction to initially create the Harvey E. Najim Family Foundation .
In 2019, The Harvey E. Najim “Family” Foundation changed it’s name and is now known as The Harvey E. Najim “Charitable” Foundation. The word “Charitable” truly describes the nature of the foundation and Mr. Najim’s commitment to making a difference in the lives of children and those in need in San Antonio.

South Texas Alliance for Orphans
South Texas Alliance for Orphans was started in 2012 with the goal to bring together churches and communities to help orphans and foster children. When it began it was a small group of church leaders, foster parents, and child placing agencies that met monthly for two years. By 2018 the organization received their 501(c)3 designation that allowed them to serve and equip a collaborative church movement to solve the foster crisis from family crisis to youth aging out.
