Eleventh Annual Archbishop's Prayer Breakfast

Gordon Hartman is a San Antonio-based philanthropist, former homebuilder, and the visionary founder of Morgan’s Wonderland—the world’s first Ultra-Accessible™, fully inclusive theme park. Inspired by his daughter Morgan, who was born with Tatton-Brown-Rahman Syndrome (TBRS), Gordon has dedicated his life to creating spaces where people of all abilities can thrive.

At just 15, Gordon launched a landscaping business while attending seminary high school. By 19, he had saved enough to start a homebuilding company; by 23, he expanded into land development. In 2005, he sold his successful business to establish the Gordon Hartman Family Foundation. Today, Gordon serves as Founder and Board Chair of Morgan’s, the nonprofit organization behind a growing portfolio of Ultra-Accessible™ ventures. Together, these initiatives have welcomed millions of guests and redefined global standards for accessibility and inclusion. Through the Gordon Hartman Family Foundation and Morgan’s, Gordon has raised or contributed a total of $303 million to inclusive causes. His leadership has earned him numerous accolades, including the Governor’s Trophy, induction into the Texas Business Hall of Fame, San Antonio Business Hall of Fame, San Antonio Sports Hall of Fame and the IAAPA Hall of Fame. His guiding motto is “Together, we ARE making a difference."
