DONATE
Bastion’s mission as a nonprofit organization is fueled by fundraising, grant awards, charitable foundations, corporate gifts, and donations from those seeking to support our veterans and their families. Your support allows us to offer cost-free resources, services, and clinical specialists to Bastion’s residents and program participants.

This historic project will increase our capacity to serve more veterans beyond our residential population and current program participants, while creating a resource hub for the 15,000+ veterans who call New Orleans home.
To learn more about supporting Bastion’s new Veteran Wellness Center or naming rights opportunities, contact Executive Director Jackson Smith.
LEGACY STONES
With your Legacy Stones, Bastion is creating a path in our community for meditation and remembrance. It will serve as a source of strength, pride, and growth for those who walk it.
Become part of Bastion’s legacy by engraving a stone in America’s first intentional community for disabled veterans and their families. Legacy Stones can memorialize a loved one, honor a veteran or active duty service member, or commemorate your support of Bastion.

DONOR ADVISED FUNDS & STOCK GIFTS
Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) are an easy and tax-efficient tool for charitable giving.
DAFs are like your own private foundation without any of the administrative red tape, providing an immediate tax deduction for your charitable contribution, while also allowing you time to decide when you want to make a grant from the fund.
You can use your Donor Advised Fund to:
- Strategically give to your favorite causes over time
- Involve your family in charitable decisions
- Create a lasting legacy of philanthropy
- Consolidate all your charitable giving (if you wish)
If you are a client of some of the largest Donor Advised Funds, you can easily make a designation by conveniently clicking on the link of your Fund below.
Grants made to Bastion through Donor Advised Funds are designated to be used “Where Most Needed.” If you have questions about giving through a DAF, please contact Jackson Smith, Executive Director at jackson@joinbastion.org.
Bastion’s tax I.D. number is US EIN 58-2554149.
When you make a DAF gift, the brokerage firm may not share your information with us.
