Who We Are
San Antonians United for the Protection of Hardberger Park (SAU4HP) is a Texas Non-Profit 501C(4) entity that was organized to raise money to financially support the efforts to carry out the goals of the Conservancy Resolution for the appropriate development of this tract of land and to oppose the building of the currently proposed Walmart big box store on that site. When this dispute has been resolved, and all obligations of SAU4HP have been fulfilled, any remaining funds in the SAU4HP bank account(s) will be donated to the Hardberger Park Conservancy.
