Helene Whitlock Alley and her husband, Reuben E. Alley Jr.
“Fire Victim Leaves Millions”
Washington Post, February 7, 2008 $7.3 million bequest gift to
Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (largest bequest in organization’s history).
“The bequest’s size stunned the foundation, which had known Alley as a dedicated “hundred-dollar donor,” said Alan Berkowitz, the group’s national director of planned giving. ‘I was shocked, shocked,’ Berkowitz said. ‘We had no idea what her wealth was.’”
Reason: her brother had Type 1 diabetes. His battle with diabetes was “heart rending, frightening, and inspiring.”

“Big Donation Saved Bit by Bit”
Grand Junction, ColoradoThe Daily Sentinel, February 10, 2008
Lena Sammons Read died at the age of 96 on Feb. 19, 2007, preceded in death by her husband Clarence.
“She lived very frugally in a small trailer in Crawford, about 12 by 5 feet, which she and her husband bought,” [the estate executor] said. “She lived there for 40 years or more, close to the school, and most of the time she walked.”
She left $565,000 in scholarships to help Crawford students pay for higher education for the next 50 years.
Also left bequests for Crawford’s ambulance service, library, fire department, Methodist church, and cemetery district.

Additional Ideas
“Strategic Philanthropy” Definition?
Checkbook Philanthropy?
Having a “plan” for philanthropy (DAF, PF, CRT, etc.)?
Giving with focus?
Outcome evaluation, based on a theory of change?
“Transformational philanthropy” vs. “Incremental philanthropy?”
Buying vs Building
61
Weaving Philanthropy Into Your Practice
Start the conversation!
Philanthropy is very important to most HNW / UHNW clients
Philanthropic values can bridge the generations
Focus on the “WHY?”
Values are everything
Discovery Starter Questions What nonprofits have you been supporting, and why?
What inspires you to make your charitable gifts?
Which of your recent gifts have given you the most satisfaction, and why?
Why?
How?
62
Weaving Philanthropy Into Your Practice
Women are changing the face of philanthropy
DAFs are increasingly popular
A “philanthropy practice” can be extremely rewarding!

Commissions on option transactions generally amount to a higher percentage of the principal than commissions for normal stock trades. Additionally, investors should not buy options unless they are prepared to lose the total amount of premiums and commissions paid. Investors should not sell covered call options unless they are prepared to deliver the related securities at the strike price upon exercise of the option.
