Commit a minimum of $1,000 worth of stock, ETF’s or mutual funds to STHF, and for 6 months we will track the performance of your pledge. Let the Foundation know what you selected, how many shares and the cost per share. Your initial investment amount will be confidential, but we will track your total rate of return. Investors will be updated monthly with a leaderboard showing return percentages of each investor.

You can donate your stock to the Foundation at any point from initial purchase until the end of the contest. But once you make your stock gift to STHF, your rate of return is final and you can’t move up the leaderboard anymore.

Results will be tallied at the end of the competition, and the leader will receive a private chef’s dinner (and bragging rights!) and each investor will have the satisfaction of knowing that your generous investment will continue to pay dividends in your community’s health system!

Investment must be committed to the Foundation before market close on Monday, May 16. The initial investment must be at least $1,000 but there is no maximum limit on your investment. You can commit shares of a single stock or multiple different stocks. Only the rate of return is tracked, and the number of shares and the total dollar amount will be kept confidential. Stocks, ETFs or mutual funds only – no cryptocurrencies or options.

Stocks must be donated to St. Tammany Hospital Foundation by market close of the deadline. There are no limits on what stocks you choose, but shares must be purchased in one single ticker. Your stock gifts will be applied to a healthcare cause of your choice.

For any questions about this contest or questions about making stock gifts, please contact Doug Walker at dwalker@stph.org with St. Tammany Hospital Foundation or 985-898-4174.
