Top Philanthropic Donors: Juanita Kious Waugh
Ms. Waugh managed her family’s farms and inherited some of her wealth from the family’s banking, brick, and cattle businesses.
Ms. Waugh, who was 87 when she died in February 2010, bequeathed about $43.5-million in cash to the Mayo Clinic, in Rochester, Minn., for education programs and building projects. She also left 7,634 acres of farmland valued “at nearly $40.2-million to Saint Joseph’s College.
Although not closely involved with the Mayo Clinic, Ms. Waugh and her mother had been patients there over the years. Her involvement with Saint Joseph’s College, however, came from her decades-long friendship with the Catholic college’s former leader, the Rev. Charles Banet, who was president from 1965 to 1993.
Though outspokenly nonreligious, Ms. Waugh met Father Banet at a dinner party and the two became fast friends, often engaging each other in debates about religion. Her bequest to Saint Joseph’s has its roots in that friendship and in her commitment to protecting her family’s farms, ownership of which dates to the late 1800s.
After Ms. Waugh’s father, Lloyd Waugh, died in 1949, the farms were managed for two years by others, but Ms. Waugh and her mother, Laura Blanche Kious Waugh, were unhappy with the way the farms were being run, so the two women took over their management. Together, they operated the farms until 1982, when Ms. Waugh’s mother died and Juanita became the sole manager. Fiercely proud of her family’s successful farming business, Ms. Waugh knew she wanted to keep the land working even after her death.
Although she had given the college small gifts in the 1970s and ’80s totaling only about $3,600, Ms. Waugh stopped donating around 1983. Yet until his death about 10 years ago, Father Banet kept her informed about the college, and in 2009 she contacted Saint Joseph’s officials as she was preparing her will.
Donationd $83.7 Million in 2010.
Let Sunset Coupons help you with your fundraising somewhat smaller fundraising projects for your school group, church, charity, team or non-profit. To finds out more about Sunset Coupons please call 800-627-6340.

Looking For A Great Fall Fundraisers?
If you are in a school, sports group or a church and need to find some great fall fundraising ideas for your next fund raising event then you need to check out the information in this blog post. When you finish you will be well on your way to starting a great Fall Fundraiser!
A Thrift Sale
While it can be very time consuming it is also a great project. Work with your group to get items that people are no longer using and bring them to a central collection point. You need to sort and price the items. Pick a weekend and hold your thrift sale at the school or a nearby home. You will find that a Friday – Saturday sale usually works best. You have a zero direct cost and all the sales dollars go toward your school group’s goal.
A Bake Sale
Bake sales have long been one of the most popular ways of raising funds for schools, religious organizations and social clubs. They can be great moneymakers because there is little or no actual capital required. All of the baked goods are usually donated. Bake sales are also known community social events. People enjoy getting together over a common goal. Whether it's the people behind or in front of the table, they just love to mix and mingle at a bake sale. Here are several points to hosting a successful bake sale for your organization.
Car Washes
Fall is still a great time for getting out and doing a little local drive. No one wants to do that in a dirty car. The weather is still nice and your group could hold an old fashion car wash. You can ask for donations between $5 and $10 dollars for an average car and even more for larger vans and trucks. Do a great job and make a Tip Jar a prominent feature. A nice Saturday could net your group hundreds of dollars if you have a great location.
Sunset Coupon Books
Sunset Coupon Books contain hundreds of dollars in savings from local merchants. The savings enjoyed from using just one or two coupons will pay for the book. And who doesn’t need to save money these days?

Top Philanthropic Donors: Stephen and Nancy Grand
Mr. Grand is president and partner of Grand-Sakwa Properties, a developer of residential and retail properties in Farmington Hills, Mich. Mr. Grand, 67, and his wife, Nancy, 61, have pledged $20-million to the American Technion Society, the fund-raising arm for the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, in Haifa, Israel, for the university’s energy-studies courses and research.

The couple previously gave $10-million in 2001 to the university’s Water Research Institute, which was then named in their honor, and have supported a dormitory and research projects at the Technion.
In addition to the $20-million gift, the Grands donated $100,000 to the American Technion Society to help the university finance research on the breakdown of proteins.
Mr. Grand serves on the board of the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation, in Norwalk, Conn, and is a member of the executive committee at the Birthright Israel Foundation, in New York.
In addition, the Grands donated a total of $8-million to the following groups: the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, in Washington; the Myeloma Institute for Research and Therapy at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, in Little Rock; the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation; the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco (Ms. Grand is vice president of its board); and the San Francisco Jewish Community Federation, where Ms. Grand was inducted as president of the board.

For Donors: The minimum donation through the site is $10 and payments can be made via American Express, Discover, MasterCard, or Visa. You can also set up recurring donations to process on a monthly basis. Track the donations you make through your giving history, which helps at tax time.
For Non-profits: To create or correct their listing on JustGive, a non-profit needs to first register with Guidestar. Organizations can set up a JustGive donation page and download a “Donate Now” button to put on their website or blog and lead donors to JustGive to process donations.

Five Fun Back To School Fundraising Ideas
Selling Kisses
The team members’ favorite (or least favorite) coaches are persuaded to join in. Jars with each coaches name are placed in a prominent location at the sports field. Which ever coach has received the most money by a given date gets to select the coach to man the Kissing Both at the next event. This is a fun fundraiser that kids, parents and coaches will enjoy.
Singing Telegrams
This fun fundraiser idea is great for school or church choirs. Buyers select the song, recipient and any special message. Singers visit the recipient in their homes or businesses to sing the telegram. This one is great for Valentines Day.
Goofy Olympics
Pick fun and silly games for an “Olympics” day. Participants pay an entry fee per game or for the whole day. Prizes (donated) are given to winners of each contest or game. Combine this program with food booths for more fun and profits.
Bake Sale
The cooks and the sweet lovers in your group will enjoy this fun fundraiser idea! Ask for donations of cakes and pies. Label each dessert with the name of the dessert and the cook. You might even want to include the recipe with the time. Ask your most humorous and charismatic person to be the auctioneer who can entertain the crowd and boost the auction prices.
Casino Night
Putting together a charity fundraising event like a Casino Night Fundraiser can be a lot of work unless you're well organized. Events like these often include live entertainment, a catered dinner, live and silent auctions, sponsorships, ticket sales, tax deductible donations, and a host of other details that require plenty of advance planning.
The plus side is that a Casino Night is a great excuse for adults to get all dressed up and have a fun time, so turnouts are impressive. There are lots of charitable groups who need to raise large amounts of operating funds and these events really deliver if done well.
Of course you can save time and hassle by using Sunset Coupon Books for your next fundraiser. Give us a call at 800-627-6340 and find out how easy and fun Sunset Coupons can be.

Of course you can save time and hassle by using Sunset Coupon Books for your next fundraiser. Give us a call at 800-627-6340 and find out how easy and fun Sunset Coupons can be.

Fall School Fundraisers
It won’t be long and the signs of Fall will be here. In the southwest desert area that doesn’t mean we expect the trees to change to a riot of color. For the Valley of the Sun and the Phoenix Metro area it means that afternoon temps might be just below 100°. If you get up around sunrise it might be in the low 70s.
Summer hangs on, with warm-to-hot days but cooling nights. In the higher elevations, around Flagstaff and the Mogollon Rim it can freeze and most likely snow. Some years might see unseasonable heavy rains during October, although this is uncommon.
At Sunset Coupons we notice that during Fall all the different schools and school groups are busy trying to raise money for all their different groups and programs. The competition gets fierce. All the groups trying to raise funds from what amounts to the same pool of funds, the parents and their co-workers, family and friends.
At Sunset Coupons we help you open up to a much larger group of people. In fact you can raise funds from anyone. You are offering a real money saving group of merchant coupons. You are helping your group by helping other people save money. Doesn’t it make sense that it is always best when you can help others while you are helping yourself?
With most groups there are no up front costs. Sunset Coupons will consign books to bonafide established organizations. Call to see how your group can begin raising money with no out of pocket expense.
Find out why Sunset Coupons is the Perfect Fundraiser for Phoenix, Tempe / Mesa, Tucson or Salt Lake City areas.
If you are unsure of how Sunset Coupons works please review our website http://sunsetcoupons.com
At Sunset Coupons we want to help you make your next fundraiser easier and more successful. Give us a call at 602-279-0404 to find out how we can help your group.

Top Philanthropic Donors: Roy and Diana Vagelos
Pindaros Roy Vagelos, was born 1929 in Westfield, New Jersey, was president and chief executive officer and chairman of the multinational pharmaceutical company Merck. He attracted research scientists who developed many major new drugs. In addition to his business accomplishments, Vagelos is the author of more than 100 scientific papers.
Dr. Vagelos, 81, and his wife, Diana, 76, gave $50-million to Columbia University Medical Center, in New York, for a new building. He earned his medical degree from Columbia’s College of Physicians and Surgeons in 1954. Dr. Vagelos serves as chairman of Columbia University Medical Center’s Board of Visitors.
Mrs. Vagelos serves on Barnard College’s Board of Trustees, in New York, and on the board of the New Jersey Performing Arts Center, in Newark.
The couple said the techniques taught in graduate and medical schools have changed greatly over the past decade, and they hope their gift helps provide students with the most advanced technology available.
Dr. and Mrs. Vagelos, who met while he was a medical student at the university and she was a student at Barnard (which was then part of Columbia’s system), also said they hope the new building provides “some social space for students to interact, study, and just enjoy their experience.”
In 1995 Dr. Vagelos was the recipient of the NAS Award for Chemistry in Service to Society, and inducted into the Junior Achievement U.S. Business Hall of Fame. He received the Bower Award for Business Leadership in 1999.
In 2010, Vagelos, who received his M.D. at Columbia University, and his wife Diana, an alumna of Barnard College, an affiliate of Columbia University, donated 50 million dollars to the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, towards the construction of a new building, which will be named in their honor.

Having results show on Google’s first page is important to help in being found but also helps you understand how hard we work to be able to help you in raising funds for your school, group, charity, sports team or non-profit.
Just for fun I tried Sunset Coupons on Microsofts’ Bing search engine as well. The results were surprising. Sunset Coupons were all seven organic (non paid ads) results.
Next I tried the Yahoo search engine for Sunset Coupons as well. The results were that 8 out of 10 results were for Sunset Coupons web site, BBB, LinkedIn or blog postings.
Both Yahoo and Bing carried Sunset Coupon images as well.
The right fundraising program, tools and tips to make the fundraiser's life just a bit easier. We have helped raise more than one million dollars for various projects, won't you let us help yours!
If you are looking to find a program to help your School group, charity or sports team then please visit the Sunset Coupons web site at http://sunsetcoupons.com to find out more or give Sunset Coupons a call at 602-279-0404 and find out how our quick and easy program can help you raise funds for your group.

Combined School Fundraisers
In these tough economic times we all know that many educational programs have been under-funded and parents and teachers have had to change and improve the ways they go about raising much needed funds to keep the programs and groups going.
Many school groups are now going about their plans for raising funds for the fall 2012 programs. These groups compete with each other for the ever shrinking pool of funds. The group of people that are targeted as potential donors and buyers are many times overwhelmed by the sheer number of groups and the number of times they are approached by school groups to raise funds by sales and donation requests.
At Sunset Coupons we suggest that you consider doing Combined School Fundraisers. A number of groups can combined to do a larger single fundraising project using Sunset Coupon Books as the Fundraising tool.
If you are unsure of how Sunset Coupons works please review our website http://sunsetcoupons.com
Distribution of Funds
If you are wondering how you can distribute the funds here are three ways to do that.
Each group tracks the sales made by individual student / volunteer names. The sales dollars are then given to each group based on the actual dollars raised.
The total amount raised is divided evenly among the groups who participated.
Each group submits a budget with a goal amount. When the sales groups are finished with fundraising the amounts first fill the groups goal amount. Any of the groups that doesn’t reach their goals is then funded by groups who exceed their sales goal dollar amounts.
The sales of Sunset Coupons can of course be augmented by other traditional fundraising events like bake sales, carnivals and car washes or other fun events that students also want to try.
Also consider using all three forms of donations, cash, checks and credit cards for your next fundraising campaign.
At Sunset Coupons we want to help you make your next fundraiser easier and more successful. Give us a call at 602-279-0404 to find out how we can help your group.

Top Philanthropic Donors: Lee and Jane Seidman
Mr. Seidman is the retired founder of the Motorcars Group, a chain of automobile dealerships, in Cleveland.
Mr. Seidman, 79, and his wife, Jane, 70, pledged $42-million to University Hospitals, in Cleveland, for its cancer center, which the organization has named the University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center.
The Seidmans’ connection to University Hospitals goes back to their infancies; they were both born there.
The gift also continues a change in their philosophy of giving that they made several years ago. In previous years, said Mr. Seidman, the couple rarely declined requests for charitable donations, making small gifts to many types of charities.
But after Mr. Seidman retired in 2000, the couple started devoting more time to their philanthropy. In 2005 they began taking courses through the Wealth and Giving Forum, a New York group, which advises wealthy philanthropists, and over time they came to believe they could make a greater difference if they concentrated their giving in larger amounts and in one or two geographic areas or on one or two nonprofits.
To that end, they chose to focus the bulk of their giving in Cleveland, where they grew up, and designated University Hospitals and the Cleveland Clinic as the beneficiaries of the bulk of their philanthropy. They pledged $17-million to the Cleveland Clinic in 2007 and another $6-million in 2009.
Mr. and Mrs. Seidman paid $12-million toward their pledge in 2010. The couple did not place any restrictions on the gift as long as it is directed toward the cancer center.

Back To School Has A Different Meaning To Fundraisers
This is the time that the words “Back To School” begin to be heard on TV and Radio and show up in printed ads all over the place.
These ads are try to sell everything from school supplies, clothing and snacks to hi-tech communications. With this noise it is very easy to miss the fact that schools are still struggling with funding for all sorts of basic needs.
So funds for extracurricular activities are the first items to be cut. They must be supported by fees that are paid by parents as well as separate fundraising efforts. These can be used to cover the expenses that may include travel and awards.
Today many major corporations have different programs that allow small donations to schools based on purchases of specific products that are absorbed into the general fund and not used for the smaller extracurricular activities needs.
But there are people who think that the corporations are supporting these smaller programs and think that regular donations and purchases are no longer need.
If you need help with your school’s group please let Sunset Coupons help you find a new an easy way to raise funds for your school group.

Fundraising Road Bumps
We all know that you can’t please everyone. So… don’t expect to. This year many students will be asked by a school organization to go out into the world and raise funds for the very first time.
This can happen at any level of “school.” From pre-school and day care through elementary, middle school, high school and beyond.
We are given very good reasons for these fundraising efforts. The most basic is that with out the fundraising the “group” won’t have all the funds they need to operate. Most groups also have fees that the parents must pay for their student to join the group.
It is true that many groups need to have a stream of funds that goes well beyond the fees students pay to join. The funds may be needed for basic necessities or other needs like travel expenses.
No matter the need the focus here is that you must expect that many folks that are approached will have many different reasons that will lead them to have a resounding no as their answer. This can stem from their lack of funds or the feeling that everyone has their hand out and they have to say no to someone. They may have had a bad experience in the past and don’t trust many people going forward.
While there are many ways to raise funds, it is better if you can delivery a quality product “right now” to the potential buyer or donor. Keep in mind that even with a “right now” product not everyone likes pop-corn, chocolate or calendars.
At Sunset Coupons we find that a “free Lunch” is still a very good incentive. Please consider for your group local coupons that serve all parts of the transaction.
Your group benefits with matching funds from the sale. Your buyer gets a value of $400.00 plus for just $10. The local merchant benefits by introducing a new customer to their business. A real win, win, win!
Give us a call at Sunset Coupons ( 800-627-6340 ) so we can help your group raise your much needed funds.

Top Philanthropic Donors: Thomas Boone Pickens, Jr.
Thomas Boone Pickens, Jr. was born May 22, 1928, known as T. Boone Pickens, is an American business magnate and financier. Pickens chairs the hedge fund BP Capital Management. He was a well-known takeover operator and corporate raider during the 1980s. With an estimated current net worth of about $1.4 billion, he is ranked by Forbes as the 328th-richest person in America and ranked 879th in the world.
Pickens was born in Holdenville, Oklahoma, the son of Grace and Thomas Boone Pickens. His father worked as an oil and mineral landman (rights leaser). During World War II, his mother ran the local Office of Price Administration, rationing gasoline and other goods in three counties. Pickens was the first child born via Caesarean section in the history of Holdenville hospital.
At age 12, Pickens delivered newspapers. He quickly expanded his paper route from 28 papers to 156. Pickens later cited his boyhood job as an early introduction to "expanding quickly by acquisition," a business practice he favored later in life.
When the oil boom in Oklahoma ended in the late 1930s, Pickens' family moved to Amarillo, Texas. Pickens never served in the military but instead attended Texas A&M on a basketball scholarship, but he lost the scholarship and transferred to Oklahoma A&M (now Oklahoma State University), where he majored in Geology. He is a member of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity. He graduated from Oklahoma A&M with a degree in geology in 1951. Following his graduation, Pickens was employed by Phillips Petroleum. He worked for Phillips until 1954. In 1956, following his period as a wildcatter, he founded the company that would later become Mesa Petroleum.
Mr. Pickens, now 82, pledged $100-million to Oklahoma State University, in Stillwater, to endow scholarships that will be awarded based on academic merit and to provide financial aid for students who otherwise could not afford to attend. The institution will receive the money upon Mr. Pickens’s death.
A 1951 graduate of the university, Mr. Pickens has made numerous other donations to Oklahoma State. Counting this pledge, he has committed close to $500-million to the institution over his lifetime.
In addition to his pledge to Oklahoma State in 2010, Mr. Pickens gave a total of $1,046,512 to 30 human-service, medical, public-affairs, and other groups throughout the country.

Five Fast Fundraising Tips.
Grassroots
Contact your list of regular contributors and explain your need for needed funds. Email, faxes and phone calls are the fastest ways to contact them. Leave all the information necessary for them to make a donation. Remember to say "thank you" in advance.
Walkathons
Put together a walkathon. Reserve a venue at a local park or school track. Check with local authorities regarding any reservation or regulation issues. Advertise your walkathon using fliers, press releases to the media and social media. Make up and pass out sign-up sheets as well as sheets for the donations from sponsors. Get everyone in the organization to walk and find others to sponsor them.
Have volunteers help with decorating the venue, check-in, giving out information about the organization and any sales items. Ask local businesses to donate cold drinks, water and ice to serve or sell.
Bake Sales
Check with local authorities to obtain all necessary permits such as food-handling licenses and certifications. Locate a venue to hold your bake sale at a church or school. Advertise the fundraiser. If possible have the baked goods donated by local businesses, and get homemade items (if allowed in your area) from members of the organization or other contributors. Set competitive prices for the baked goods. Provide recipes for the baked goods as part of the event.
Rummage Sales
Get donated items for your rummage sale. Arrange for volunteers to help with the sale. Advertise your rummage sale. Price the items for a quick sale. Set up your rummage sale in an organized manner.
