| Year-End
Giving Can Reduce Your Tax Bill |
|
Believe it or not, you can limit the amount you will
owe Uncle Sam next April. Regardless of the type of
gift you make, if you itemize when filing your taxes,
your year-end gift to the Sigma Nu Educational Foundation
will qualify you for a charitable deduction.

“Cowboy” Takes a Chance on CMT’s Music Video Contest
|
Steven
“Cowboy” Flaughers (Akron, Kent State) has
been singing all his life, even before his
earliest memories. According to his mother,
his singing debut occurred at the age of
four at a little hot dog stand in small-town
West Virginia.
Almost 30 years later, Cowboy made it to
the Top 16 on Country Music Television's
Music City Madness Video Contest held this
fall through the CMT web site. His music
|
|
video premiered at the Cleveland Film Festival and
on computer screens across the nation as friends,
family and people he’s never met before voted for
the music video that was almost a year in the making. |

JMU Chapter Gives
a Helping Hand to the Make-A-Wish Foundation
|
In September, the Iota Delta Chapter of
Sigma Nu at James Madison University launched
its annual fundraiser for the Make-A-Wish
Foundation of Central and Western Virginia.
With help from local sponsors like Little
Italy Pizza, James McHone Jewelers and Boitnott
Visual Communications, along with the online
donations of friends, family members and
Iota Delta alumni, the chapter was able
to raise $2600 towards the wish of a child
in the Central and Western Virginia area.
Under the leadership and hard work of Ryan
Middleton, Philanthropy Chair, the chapter
set up donation booths across the campus
of James Madison and raised awareness and
funds through outgoing conversations with
students passing by, all while organizing
a five-on-five basketball tournament that
raised funds through registration fees.
