At the Baptist Hospitals of Southeast Texas Foundation, we believe that every act of giving is sacred. But some forms of generosity not only impact lives—they make good financial sense too.
If you want to help, there are many ways to make a difference. If you have assets in retirement accounts or investments in the stock market, now may be the perfect time to consider a smarter way to give.
Gifts of Appreciated Stock
At any age, if you own stocks that have increased in value, donating them directly—rather than selling and giving cash—can help you avoid capital gains taxes and still receive a charitable deduction for the full market value.
That means a greater impact for your donation and more savings for you!
Donor Advised Funds (DAFs)
If you already have a Donor Advised Fund, it’s easy to recommend a grant to the BHSET Foundation. DAFs offer flexibility and tax advantages, and they can be a powerful tool for charitable giving—especially if you want to support multiple causes or plan giving over time.
Your fund manager can direct a gift to support the Sacred Work happening every day at Baptist Hospitals of Southeast Texas.
Donate Cryptocurrency
Why donate crypto?
Your gift to the BHSET Foundation will serve the underserved from an eight-county area of Southeast Texas. Your support is vital to us and makes a difference. Your donation will be utilized to impact a number of healthcare needs. BHSET Foundation projects include supporting the only large inpatient behavioral health resource in an area the size of the State of Delaware. Supporting cancer services for our region. Supporting the SMART Health Clinic that offers chronic conditions management to those without insurance. In addition, the foundation administers funds to support our patients with needs such as transportation. But we cannot do this without you. We rely upon your generosity to help everyone who needs healthcare in our region! Please become a partner with BHSET Foundation today and change someone’s life for the better.
What are the tax benefits?
Donating cryptocurrency is a non-taxable event. Donors do not owe capital gains tax on the appreciated crypto that is donated and can typically deduct the fair market value of the donation on their taxes. This often makes Bitcoin, Ethereum and other cryptocurrency donations one of the most tax efficient ways to support your favorite cause. Talk to a crypto-savvy tax professional or connect with The Giving Block to get connected with one.
