Take one tuning, have check made out to you, cash it at the cutomer's bank,
put cash in envelope with your favorite charity on the return address, mail
to John, give middle digit hand signal to IRS.

I've done a little 'net searching, and it seems that donors pay no gift tax
up to $13,000, and donees pay no tax on gifts, as long as the gift are
clearly not compensation, or money laundering or anything like that.  So I
think we'll all be 'in the clear'.  I'd still like a lawyer or tax guy/gal
to chime in, though.
