Baylor Health Care System Foundation

1903 Giving Society

Named in honor of the year Baylor was founded, the 1903 donor society was created to recognize loyal donors by providing convenience and special amenities during the member’s health care experience. In 1903, the actions of dedicated individuals made a significant impact on the lives of future generations.

I believe I donated more than $2,500 in the past year. How do I start receiving benefits?

Why do I need to supply a social security number and signature to receive 1903 benefits?
1903 benefits include expedited hospital admittance, which means we already have your forms filled out and waiting for you when you come to the hospital. To provide the highest quality service and privacy to our donors and patients, we need you to supply this information and signature to us to start your membership.
