Opportunity Home Community Fund

Building Opportunity Beyond Housing

A safe, affordable home is the first step toward a brighter future. The Opportunity Home Community Fund builds on that foundation by creating opportunities that housing alone cannot provide.

Through the generosity of donors, businesses and community partners, the Opportunity Home Community Fund removes barriers to education, career advancement, and financial independence.

Why It Matters

The journey toward a brighter future isn’t the same for everyone. Meaningful support at every stage of life can make all the difference.

  • Children and teens need opportunities to learn, grow and build confidence.
  • Adults need access to education, workforce development and financial empowerment.
  • Seniors and individuals with disabilities benefit from programs that promote health, connection and independence.
  • Families thrive when they have the resources and support to move forward.

The need is significant — and so is the opportunity to make a difference.

About Us

The Opportunity Home Community Fund is the charitable nonprofit partner of Opportunity Home San Antonio. It connects philanthropic support with life-changing programs and initiatives that help individuals and families achieve long-term success.

Originally established in 1991 as the San Antonio Housing Authority Foundation and later renamed the Education Investment Foundation, we rebranded as the Opportunity Home Community Fund in 2026 to sharpen our focus on total community uplift. Today, we continue our charitable mission with a renewed commitment to supporting residents served by Opportunity Home — the largest housing authority in Texas and the largest provider of affordable housing in the city.

Working alongside Opportunity Home’s Community Development Initiatives department, we help strengthen programs and services for people living in Opportunity Home’s public housing and Affordable Housing Communities, as well as families participating in the Housing Choice Voucher program.

OUR MISSION

To support residents of Opportunity Home in reaching their full potential by bridging housing with opportunities through community partnerships. We empower families to break the cycle of generational poverty and achieve upward mobility.


OUR VISION

A San Antonio where every resident has equitable access to education, digital resources, financial stability, and comprehensive support, closing the opportunity gap across every generation.
