According to [The Guardian](http://money.guardian.co.uk/saving/banks/story/0,,2067059,00.html),“
nearly £1bn in windfall shares belonging to more than half a million people remain
unclaimed after the wave of building society and insurance company demutualisations.”
A good number of these people might well be charity donors, so it might be worth
your charity reminding its supporters about these unclaimed assets. You might even
receive a financial thank you from some of them.
