Houston Texans Foundation
Supporting the Houston community through the Texans' legacy of service.
The Houston Texans Foundation is the official charitable arm of the Houston Texans organization. While the source does not provide specific details about the foundation's activities, it does establish that the Texans are deeply rooted in the Houston community. The team was founded in 1999 to bring NFL football back to the city after the Oilers' departure, and the McNair family—Bob, Janice, and Cal—have owned and operated the franchise since its inception. The foundation likely reflects that same commitment to Houston, though the source does not describe any particular programs, events, or initiatives.
