Give Back by Serving at Baptist Hospitals of Southeast Texas

Since 1949, committed volunteers have been a proud part of our heritage at Baptist Hospitals of Southeast Texas. Our volunteers come from all corners of the community and represent a variety of professions, age groups, physical abilities, and ethnic and cultural backgrounds. Committed volunteers have been the key to our success since we opened.

Our Volunteers Network

Over the years the Auxiliary has provided funds to the hospital for purchasing various medical equipment, special projects, and support of the Chaplain’s Emergency Fund.

The Volunteer Auxiliary also encourages students to pursue healthcare career educations by offering educational scholarships. These generous gifts have been made possible through the Auxiliary’s operation of the hospital gift shop, Blessings.
