Top Philanthropic Donors: Edward Evans

On December 20, 2010, Yale President Levin announced that Yale had received a US $50 million gift from Yale alumnus Edward P. Evans, which will be recognized with the naming of the new main building as Edward P. Evans Hall. Ground was broken for the new campus on April 26, 2011.

Mr. Evans, who was 68 when he died December 31, gave $50 million to Yale University, in New Haven, Conn., several weeks before his death. The money will be used for a new building in the university’s School of Management, which Yale plans to name for Mr. Evans. He graduated from the university in 1964.

Edward P. (Ned) Evans was born in Pittsburgh, PA on January 31, 1942 to Thomas Mellon Evans and Elizabeth Park Evans Kase. He is survived by two brothers Thomas M. Evans, Jr. and Robert S. Evans, his niece, Ashley Evans and his nephews Jonathan Evans, Thomas M. Evans, III and Mark Johnson Evans.

Ned graduated from Yale University in 1964 and earned an MBA from Harvard Business School in 1967. He had a long and successful business career beginning in 1968, holding executive positions with a number of family businesses. In 1980, Ned became Chairman and CEO of MacMillian, Inc.

Beginning in 1988, he became involved with personal business interests and investments including breeding and racing thoroughbred horses. Ned was also known as a generous philanthropist. He formed the Edward P. Evans Foundation and contributed to a number of charitable organizations in various fields throughout the United States.

Mr. Evans' greatest joy was racing thoroughbred horses and breeding thoroughbreds at his farm in Casanova, Virginia known as Spring Hill Farm. He bred over 100 stakes winners and as of his death was the 4th leading breeder and 7th leading owner in North America. Ned was consistently named as one of the Top 10 breeders in North America. His horse Quality Road was one of the favorites for the 2009 Kentucky Derby and won or placed in 12 out of 13 starts. Quality Road was injured before the 2009 Derby and was unable to compete in any of the Triple Crown races in that year. The Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association named Ned the Virginia Breeder of the Year nine times, most recently in 2009, and the National Breeder of the Year in 2009.

Early Spring Fundraisers In Arizona

There's no reason to stop doing good when it gets a bit cooler outside. In some parts of the country everyone is tempted to curl up at home and hibernate, but it's about as good a time as any to have a early spring parties with a purpose.  In the Arizona desert we don’t suffer from any real cold weather.

Arizona cool weather fundraisers gives friends and family an excuse to get out of the house and be an active part of their community. Even here people tend to focus on family during the winter months due to the holidays.

Selling Seed Packets:  With "green" options all around us and folks striving to live healthier lives, it makes good sense to include seeds in your school's fundraising activities.  It is a practical guarantee that your child will have to peddle some sort of merchandise during their school years; it may as well be a product that won't rot their teeth or their brain.

Hold a "thon":  Walk, run, skip, spin, ski, skate, swim, rollerblade, dance, yoga... you get the idea! Use your favorite sport or activity to collect donations and pledges.

Lawn Maintenance: Ask a neighbor, local store, community park or your parents if you can garden, shovel, pick weeds, cut grass or rake leaves in exchange for a donation.

How Many In The Jar:  Fill a jar with candy, coins, nails, screws or any other item and have people pay to guess how many it took to fill it! If the jar isn't filled with something yummy (like candy) to win - be sure to have a prize to help entice people to play.

Sunset Coupon Books: Easily raise money for your School, Sports Team, Youth Group, Church or Non-profit. 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?

Youth Sports Fundraising Basics

Youth sports fundraising is a great way to earn extra money for extra-curricular activities while teaching children about teamwork, working hard to accomplish a goal, and serving the local community. Children are wonderful fundraising participants. They are enthusiastic about almost everything they do.

They learn many new things every day and they are genuinely interested in the activities offered through their school and team activities. Fundraising for youth sports teams should be positioned as a fun event rather than a task, and as something children can enjoy working on with their friends, teammates, coaches and parents.

Whether your youth sports fundraiser will help raise money for team uniforms, training tools and equipment, weekend training camps, or travel expenses for tournaments, youth sports fundraisers do not need to be difficult. We have done some research to bring you interesting ideas to help you create the best fundraising strategies for youth sports.

In youth sports fundraising, it is important to select the right products to sell. The products should have mass appeal, be relevant to the sport and time of year, and be sold at an above average price point so you can make good profit margins. Consider choosing items that are top of mind during the time of year you are hosting your fundraiser. If you are part of a softball or baseball team and are conducting a fundraiser at the end of the summer for a tournament, consider selling "back-to-school" items, backpacks, lunch-boxes, pencils, etc. Similarly, if the fundraiser is for a Fall sport, consider selling holiday items such as wrapping paper, holiday cards, candles and tree lights, etc. Lastly, it's important that your fundraising product has a high profit margin. Sunset Coupon Books have large profit margins, and are a relatively easy item to sell.

Honing Your Skills for Effective Fundraising

Let's face it. Many people find it difficult to ask friends, neighbors, and strangers for money. But if you don't ask, you won't receive. This chapter will help hone your asking skills, whether it's verbally or in writing, providing strategies to help you put your best foot forward. All it takes is effort, a passion for your cause, and respect for potential contributors.

Offer A Reward For Donations

For a $50 donation, you get a T-shirt; for a $100 donation, you'll receive an umbrella; and for $200, you'll get a tote bag. This is typical of the fundraising efforts of PBS and similar organizations. You donate money and get something in return.

Giving people an additional incentive can spur contributions. Having a sponsor who can provide you with T-shirts or some other giveaway item makes this added incentive work. It also raises public awareness about your organization. Bumper stickers, T-shirts, caps, mugs, and tote bags featuring the name of your organization are all very visible items. One fundraising group gave a jacket to everyone who put in three hours of volunteer time at its annual conference. This created a professional, united look among the volunteer staff and served to promote the organization.

One of the simplest things to do is give recognition. It costs little, if anything, to acknowledge somebody's generosity and it makes people feel good when you do so. Consider mentioning volunteers and donors in the monthly or quarterly newsletter.

Just because you came up with the brilliant fundraising idea doesn't put you in charge — or does it? Every fundraising project needs a leader to take charge. The leadership role will require a significant time commitment, and the leader will need the support of the members of the organization to get things moving.

If, on the other hand you are looking for a high dollar return, simple and easy fundraiser call Sunset Coupons at 800-627-6340 and let us show you how we can help your group reach its goals, time after time and year after year.

Top Philanthropic Donors: Jan and Marica Vilcek

Dr. Vilcek, a professor of microbiology at New York University School of Medicine, who co-developed Remicade, an anti-inflammatory drug. Ms. Vilcek is a former associate curator and head of the accessions and catalog department at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, in New York.

Dr. Vilcek, 77, and his wife, Marica, 74, pledged $21-million to New York University Langone Medical Center. Of the total, $10-million will go toward a new residence hall for students, $10-million will endow full-tuition scholarships, and $1-million will be added to the Jan T. Vilcek Endowed Fellowship Fund, which the couple established five years ago. Dr. Vilcek said he hopes the donation will “enable talented young medical students and researchers to have the same opportunities that I did at NYU Langone.” He added that he and his wife hope to improve the competitiveness of the medical school and attract the best-qualified students.

While they have an eye toward present and future students, the couple’s reasons for giving to the medical center are rooted in their past. They came to the United States 46 years ago as refugees from what was then communist Czechoslovakia with no money and few contacts.

“We earned our small fortune not by speculating in the financial markets but by doing scientific research in a university setting,” said Dr. Vilcek.

He said the medical center gave him the opportunity to be a part of its family, and it in turn became his intellectual home. He and his wife now want to make it possible for others to succeed.

The Vilceks have paid $8.3-million toward the pledge and plan to pay the remainder over the next three years. The $21-million commitment is not the Vilceks’ first gift to the institution or even their largest. In 2005 the couple pledged $105-million to the medical school for education and research programs in the department of microbiology.

Dr. and Ms. Vilcek last year gave $1-million to their Vilcek Foundation, in New York, which they established in 2000. The foundation awards grants and prizes with a focus on calling attention to the contributions of immigrants to science and the arts in the United States. The couple also gave $700,000 to the Metropolitan Museum of Art and a total of more than $390,000 to other nonprofits, including the Bellevue Literary Press, in New York, several scientific research funds at New York University, and other organizations.
