Lore, Ph.D., President & CEO Address: 1048 Pierpont, Suite 3 Lansing, Michigan 48910 Requested Amount: $100,000 Organization: The ConnectMichigan 1\lliance Summary: The ConnectMichigan 1\lliance will work to achieve its goal of providing avenues for every Michigan citizen to serve their community through volunteer service and civic action. This goal will be met by: • • • • Providing access to a strong and healthy volunteer center for every Michigan resident; Having every Michigan college and university encourage citizen service & learning among its students, faculty and staff; Building strong nonprofits to meet our communities' most pressing social, charitable, economic, cultural, educational, faith-based, and civic needs; and Maximizing state and federal resources to empower communities to address their local challenges. Background: In October of 2000, these partnering organizations (Michigan Campus Compact, Michigan Community Service Commission, Michigan Nonprofit 1\ssociation & Volunteer Centers of Michigan) committed to build a permanent infrastructure for volunteers in Michigan by forming the ConnectMichigan Nliance. Lead by former CEO of the Sisters of St. Joseph Health Systems, Dr. John S. Lore, this innovative partnership leverages additional financial and human resources; reduces duplication of efforts and dependence on government; creates a seamless support structure for Michigan's volunteers; and eliminates wasteful expenditures of vital resources. The ConnectMichigan 1\lliance continues one of Michigan's most powerful legacies---service and volunteerism. Funding: In June 2000, Governor Engler and the Michigan Legislature provided a challenge grant for the ConnectMichigan 1\lliance Endowment. This grant provides up to $10 million that must be matched dollar-for-dollar no later than November of 2002. Payment: Send payments to the ConnectMichigan J\lliance Endowment Fund c/o the Capitol Region Community Foundation, 6035 Executive Drive, Suite 104, Lansing, MI 48911.

Richardson February 15, 2002 Mr. Stephen E. Upton Chairman The Frederick S. Upton Foundation 100 Ridgeway St. Joseph, Michigan 49085 Dear Mr. Upton: On behalf of the ConnectMichigan Alliance, I am pleased to submit to you a proposal for a grant in the amount of $15,000. CMA is a cutting-edge initiative that works to strengthen local nonprofits' management functions, volunteers and programs. All across the nation, we are seeing the value and need for communitybased volunteer programs. CMA will ensure that we have strong volunteer resources in every community in Michigan. Your grant will leverage a 100 percent match through a $10 million challenge grant issued by the State of Michigan. This doubles your investment in the administrative support capacity of nonprofit organizations serving Southwest Michigan. CMA was created with the belief that it is at the community level that problems are solved, but it is the state level "infrastructure" that helps to develop and sustain local efforts. The support of The Frederick S. Upton Foundation will allow for CMA to tailor services and programs to benefit the Southwest Michigan community, now and well into the future.

Newman Juan Olivarez Joel Orosz Terry Pruitt Judith Ann Rapanos Patricia Reynolds Anne Rosewarne Kathryn Rossow Peter Secchia Diana Sieger Glenn D. Steil Judy Tymowicz Once our campaign is complete, you will have helped to develop a $20 million endowment fund. With this support, CMA will provide avenues for every Michigan citizen to serve their community through philanthropy, volunteer service and civic action. This goal is met through: • • Building the capacity of local nonprofits to meet their most pressing social, charitable, economic, cultural, educational, faith-based and civic needs; Providing access to strong and healthy Volunteer Centers for every Michigan citizen; Connect Michigan Alliance P.O.

CMA has already secured $5.5 million toward the State's $10 million challenge grant. The ConnectMichigan Alliance only has until September 30, 2002 to leverage the remaining $4.5 million. CMA forfeits the opportunity to earn any remaining balance of the state challenge grant after that date. Thank you for considering this request to strengthen volunteerism by supporting the advanced organizational capacities of local nonprofit organizations.

PURPOSE Discuss how to position a gift of $1 million with the Ford Motor Co. Fund for the ConnectMichigan Alliance II. BACKGROUND The Ford ~otor Co., Daimler/Chrysler and General Motors are all being approached for a $1 million gift to the ConnectMichigan Alliance-Michigan's effort to endow volunteerism. Ford Motor Company is the world's largest producer of trucks and the second~ largest producer of cars and trucks combined. It also is one of the largest providers of financial services worldwide. Ford Motor Company employs nearly 346,000 people around the world. In its 51 years, FQrd Motor Company Fund support for charitable groups and organizations doing important work has grown from $1.4 million to $82.7 million. Giving is focused around five areas; education, environment, health and welfare, civic affairs and public policy, and arts and humanities. Education as the top funding priority, has seen the largest growth since 1997, although giving in all areas has increased yearly. To date, the ConnectMichigan Alliance Campaign has secured $1 million level gifts from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, C.S. Mott Foundation and a preliminary indication of a $1 million gift from the Dow Foundation CRanny called Sam to say that they are going to make the gift, but it isn't public yet). Detroit Edison has committed to a $350,000 gift, one of its largest ever. Hudson-Webber Foundation will be announcing a commitment of $100,000 soon. ···-··-··- ·-·····-·····-·· --- �COMMUNICATIONS , ,_ Fax:St?-335-6789 •-•-. ·-- - ·•• •-·- - -- "' ' ''"''"":'"' ~' "'' Sep 19 '01 9:14 ·, '' '"~"' "' --·-- "·~·-- ··-----• -o oo No o- oo• -••---.-~~ . ~ .

Through a $20 rn.illion endowrnent, the combined force$ of the Mi~gan Campus Comp,.ct (MCC), Michigan Community ~rvice Commission (MCSC), Michigan N onprofit Association (MNA) and the Volunteer Ce.nters of Michigan (VCM) permanently sustains and expands the ~volunteer infrastrucrure,. for which Michigan is known and heralded. All of the p£rtners of this initiative have developed innovati,·e approaches to working effectively on a statewid~ level with varied constituencies and serve as national models of ben practices. Once {he campaign is completed, the Co~meetMichigan A.lliallte (CMA) begins to achieve its goal of providing avenues for every MiclUg2.o citizen LO serve their ~ommunity throu~ volunteer service and ciYic action. This goal is met by: • Providing access to a strong and healthy Volunteer Center for every Michigan • Having every :Michigan college and university encourage ciriz.en service & learning among its students, faculty ud staff; Building strong nonprofits to met!t our commuwties' most pressing social, resident; • • chuitable, c:,.;oaomic, e\Jtural, educational, faith-based, and dvic neetk; artd Maximizing state and federal government resources tO empower communities to address their l~al challenges. a In creating CM.A.., the four foundi.ngpa..rtners, MCC, MCSC, :MNA and VCM, have created synergistic application of their services that results iJl a seamless delivery of support services and programs to volunteer and service· learning initiatives throughour the s•an:. While MNA 010d MCSC will remain separate entities, they will share a central location with CMA, which will reduce admi..nistnti ve expens~ and duplication of services. This arrangement, w hith is modeled after successful reorganization strategies in the private-for-profit sector, enhances technological capacity and customer service models of the partners. CMA is a statewide i.nitiatiV'e. The state of Michigan provided a S10 million challenge grant (S 1; Sl) ro~r.ard "this initiative. The C. S. Mot't Foundation and theW. K. Kellogg Foundation each responded to the ~hallenge with le~ gifts: of Sl million. The re~ing $8 million will be developed over the next twelve months through multiple-year pledges a.nd one-time gifts. �COM~1UNICATIDNS______...... -~-f._?x _~5_17_~~~~-6?~~ ..······ · · ·--· ·---- . . .S~p} ~ .'01 ----.. - ~_:}_?. ___ _ P.08 W'hat will be the impact? Currently, many M.ichigan citiuns are unable to acc~s a volunteer center- places where our individuals and or~anizations work to match volunteer opportunities with the right individual. Only 54 Michigan counties are currently Sef\·ed by a Volunteer Center.

Impact: All of Michig:m's 83 COWltles will be served by a local Volunteer C~nter and thereby providint; universal a<:eess for every Michig;an citizeu to $erve. Challenge: Volunieer Centers have limited ~tccess to fund adnncement professionals. Goal: Increase Loo g·tenn Financial Capacity of Local Volunteer Centers Method: Provide training and technical assistance to Volunteer Centers and their boards in the areas of Donprofit best practices, !undraising, and board development. Impact: Local Volunteer Centers will become financially viable nonprofit organaations through the provision of technical assiStance in the development of annual fund advancement plans, and enhanced efforts to build local endowments. Challenge: Accessibility to volunteer opportunities and support is limited by the strength and depth of leadership i.n a community. Often leadership inYolves the same pool of volunteers and leaders who either move on or "bum our," lt:ot-ving the organization with our srrong and long term support. Goal: Increase Access to Professional Development Opportunities for Staff and Boards of Volunteer-based Nonprofits to Deepen the Leadership in a Community. Method: Support a regional network of training aJld teduucal assistance providers than can deliver high quality services at a reason;tb]e cost to local volunteer-based org:a.n.izations.

Goal: Improve the Quality of Life in Every Michigan Conununity with Improved Nonprofits- the Engines of Civk Engagement in Loc.2.l Communities Method: Provide grants, conferences and meeting opponunities to local nonprofits to strategically develop long-term solutions to community problems using 5ervke and volunteerism as strate&e5 . Impact: Local organizations will have access to resources necessary to convene local panners in the development of markel·specific programtning tbat encourages youth volunteerism, family volunteerism, rural business volunleer councils, and urban corporate volunteer councils. Challenge: Citizenship, giving, civic engagement and an the ethic of giving back are not the indoctrinating principles our society's institutions and tommunities instill a.s they once did. New ways need to be found ro instill these values. Goal: Increase the Capadty for Person~ and Educational Success of Children and Adolescents Method: H.igbligbt service-learning as a viable and valuable teaching methodology with studentS, reachers and parents through school partnerships, after-school programs, teacher ill-service$. Impaa: Local Volunteer Centers will develop service-learning and civic engagement programming promoting p:uticip~tion of children. .in &ndes K-12. Challenge: Only thirty-five of the state•s post-secondary educational i.ostimrions have demonstrated their com.mirmenr to promoting more civically engag~d students, faculty and administrators by committing to tb~ Michigan Campus Compact.

Request an extension from the Governor of the state matching grant (realizing that his ability to grant such a request only stretches as far as his administration which will end in January of 2003). 2. Maintain the CMA on the funds aquired to date and allow whatever pledges and checks coming in between now and November to be matched by state funds and then close out the campaign. This would mean that if the $10 million mark was not reached, the remaining $2.5 million in State of Michigan Challenge Grant funds, $lmillion Kesge Challenge Grant funds and $100,000 Dow Corning Challenge Grant funds would not be met and allowed to expire. 3. Request an extension from the Michigan Legislature. Many times the legislature is asked to extend funds beyond a budget cycle due to various circumstances (building projects take longer than 12 months, initiatives begin late, etc.) These are commonly referred to as "Work Projects." The latest news from the Department of Management and Budget is that Work Projects are being reviewed in greater detail to find budget relief and will be granted sparingly. The CMA Endowment was granted a Work Project last year. An additional Work Project request would be required for and extension beyond the current fiscal agreement. 4. Develop a permanently endowed fund at the CRCF to be administered by the MCSC for the State of Michigan for the purposes originally intended. In other words, the remaining funds would be transferred from the non-permanent fund to a permanent fund from which the proceeds would be granted to the CMA for support of the CMA functions as the current CMA Endowment Funds is set up to do. The difference between the two is that the State of Michigan, through the MCSC, retains control of the funds and the corpus remains separate from the CMA Permanent Endowment Fund. This would mean a substantially smaller return on the funds. This would also not likely qualify for the Kresge and Dow Corning Challenge Grants, but that is certain up to them. 6/27/02 �Page 2 of2 Please let me know what you think. Thanks.

The CMA Endowment Advisory Committee's work to clarify donor intent in 2009-10 highlighted a need to document and better understand endowment growth and proceeds. Doing so will improve internal processes as well as to enable transparency between MNA and donors, and between MNA and partner organizations. • Project Scope: The purpose of this project is to create a financial history of the endowment as well to improve MNA's ability to project payout in a timely and accurate manner. • Process: The following report results from interviewing and collecting financial and institutional data from Tina Bruce, Director of Finance at MNA and Richard Comstock, VP of Finance at CRCF from February-March 2011. • Central Findings of the Report: • Historical picture of asset growth and payout 2000-20 10 CRCF policies key to estimating endowment proceeds • Impact of the recession on assets and future payout Recommended practices and tools for projecting payout going forward �2010 Net Assets are 85°/o of Pre-Recession Peak December 31st Asset Balance 2000-10 $25,000,000 - , - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ' - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - · $20,591,342 $17,581,592 $10,000,000 - l - - - �Net Assets by Fund 2000-2010 25000000 20000000 15000000 "Engler :.·campus 10000000 "Romney "Mawby ,.

Blews, Chair, CMA Endowment Advisory Committee Michigan Nonprofit Association Board of Directors From: Kyle Caldwell, President and CEO, Michigan Nonprofit Association Re: CMA Endowment Advisory Committee Process Date: March 12, 2012 Summary Thank you again for agreeing to serve as the Chair of the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) Endowment Advisory Committee (referred to in the Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) Bylaws (See Attachment A, Article VII (2) as the Investment Committee). The committee is coming up on its annual review to ensure that the endowment proceeds are used in alignment with donor intent and that the funds held at the Capital Region Community Foundation are property invested and administered. That meeting is scheduled for April23rd from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00p.m. via conference call. We are also coming to an important milestone in the committee' s history. In the MNA Articles of Incorporation that were restated and adopted after the merger with the ConnectMichigan Alliance, Article VII created the Investment Committee. In that article it also stated that the committee shall exist until December 31, 2012, and after this date, the Directors of the MNA may vote to continue the committee, amend the committee, or abolish the committee (see Attachment B). Therefore there are two tasks before the Committee: review and approve staff recommendations for Endowment Allocations for the 2012-13 FY budget; determine the future of the Committee itself in preparation for the December 31,2012 review date. This memo is designed to explain the necessary steps the committee needs to take to deal both issues. Background The CMA Endowment is an agency fund of the Capital Region Community Foundation whose proceeds are designated to the MNA as part of a completed merger agreement between MNA �Engagement Committee which will be helping with the programmatic direction of the work supported in part by the CMA Endowment proceeds; and that the CMNMNA merger agreement and MNA Articles of Incorporation call for the decision for the future need of the committee by December, 2012; it seems logical to dissolve the CMA Endowment Advisory Committee and communicate in the charge ofthe Civic Engagement Committee, the findings of the CMA Endowment Advisory Committee as articulated above. �Attachment A �Michigan Nonprofit Association BYLAWS OF THE MICIDGAN NONPROFIT ASSOCIATION (Amended December 14, 2004) (Amended December 12, 2006) (Amended May 23, 2007) (Amended June 17, 2008) (Amended December 13, 2011) ARTICLE I: Purposes and Definitions Purposes.

The Fund is for the purpose of creating an endowment for ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA). Subject to the provision of this Agreement, distribution from the Fund will be made annually to CMA according to the Spending Guidelines established by the Board of Trustees of the Foundation. In general, the principal of permanent endowments will not be invaded except when applying the Spending Guidelines, or in extraordinaty circumstances as deemed appropriate by the Board of Trustees of the Foundation. CMA may also request that all or a portion of the amount available for distribution be reinvested in the Fund principal. Gifts may be added to the Fund at any time by CMA or by other donors. The Board of Trustees of the Capital Region Community Foundation ("Foundation") shall have fmal authority and discretion·as to the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund as a part of the Foundation's "pooled fund" investment. Overall investment guidelines, objectives and performance of the "pooled fund" investment shall be submitted in writing annually to CMA by the Foundation. The Foundation, upon receipt of contributions to the Fund, will establish a separate account for the accounting control of funds received from CMA or from other persons or organizations wishing to directly make gifts to the Foundation for the purpose of assisting CMA. The Foundation shall separately account for all principal and income in the Fund. The Foundation shall provide CMA with a complete reporting on the Fund's activity, including all receipts, disbursements, income and expenses, within 60 days following completion of the Foundation's annual public audit. The Foundation shall furnish all routine accounting, as well as reporting to the Michigan Attorney General and the Internal Revenue Service regarding the Fund. It is understood that Foundation staff shall work actively with CMA in offering advice, consultation and support for the development or expansion of a deferred-giving program by CMA Board of Directors. The Foundation also agrees to actively promote gifts to the Fund through the Foundation's web site, printed materials, newsletter, annual reports and special mailings to prospective donors. In exchange for the investment management, accounting and deferred giving services, the Foundation will charge the Fund customary and usual fees, which will be deducted annually in the first quarter of the year. Any change in this fee shall be made only after notice to the CMA Board of Directors. This fee is in addition to any investment fees charged to the Foundation prorated to this Fund, and to any extraordinaty direct expense relating to the Fund, which will be paid by the Fund. �. I ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund Agreement 2 It is understood that as of the date of this agreement CMA is in process of securing its 501(c)(3) non-profit status. In the event that this status is denied, the fund assets will be split with 50% transferred to the CRCF MNA permanent endowment fund and 50% transferred to a CRCF MCSC permanent endowment fund. In the event of the dissolution of CMA, or if CMA ceases to be a qualified charitable organization, the Foundation shall thereafter continue to hold the assets constituting the Fund and shall distribute the net income and/or principal therefrom to such organizations as in the opinion of the Board of Trustees of the Foundation most nearly meet the purposes of CMA. To the extent that the Board of Directors of CMA may convene at times relevant to this paragraph, the Foundation shall consult with the Board of Directors of CMA to determine an appropriate recipient of the distribution. If the Foundation ceases to be a qualified charitable organization or if the Foundation proposes to dissolve, the assets of the Fund, after payment or making provision for payment of any liabilities properly chargeable to the Fund, shall be distributed to CMA. If CMA is not then a qualified charitable organization, said assets shall be distributed in such manner and to such organization or organizations as satisfies the requirements of a qualified charitable organization and serves purposes similar to those of CMA. It is understood and agreed that all assets held in the Fund shall be subject to the Charter and Bylaws of the Foundation, including, but not limited to, the power contained therein for the Board of Trustees of the Foundation to modify any restrictions or considerations on the distribution of the fund for any specified charitable purposes or to specified organizations, if in the sole judgment of the governing body (without the necessity of the approval of any participating trustees, agent or custodian), such restriction or condition become, in effect, unnecessary, incapable of fulfillment or inconsistent with charitable needs of the community or area served by the Foundation. [(Treas. Reg. Section 1. 170A-9(c)(I l)(v)(b)(l)] Definitions and Construction (a) As used in this Agreement (1) "Qualified charitable organization," means an organization described in IRC 509(a)(l), (2) or (3) and which is other than a private foundation under 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. (2) (b) Reference to any provision of the Internal Revenue Code shall be deemed references to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as the same be amended from time to time and the corresponding provision of any future U.S. Internal Revenue Code. It is intended that the Fund shall be a component part of the Foundation and that nothing in this Agreement shall affect the status of the Foundation as an entity which is a qualified charitable organization. This Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the foregoing intention and so as to conform to the requirement of the Internal Revenue Code and any regulations issued pursuant thereto applicable to the intended status of the Foundation. �------- -- ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund Agreement 3 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Party hereto has executed this Agreement by its duly authorized officers effective as ofthe day and year of the signing of the Agreement.

Capital Region community foundation The Center for Charitable Giving November 30, 2006 HAND DELIVERED Kyle Caldwell President and CEO ConnectMichigan Alliance 1048 Pierpont, Suite 3 Lansing, Michigan · 48911 Re: ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund; Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund; George W. Romney Endowment Fund; Michigan Campus Compact Endowment Fund Dear Kyle: As you indicated to me yesterday, ConnectMichigan Alliance and the Michigan Nonprofit Association are engaged in discussions regarding the possible consolidation of their programs and activities, either through a merger of CMA into MNA, or by having CMA become a supporting organization ofMNA. You asked me to provide you with an explanation of how such a consolidatiqn would affect distributions from the abovereferenced endowment funds, all of which now benefit CMA. Under either consolidation scenario the endowment funds should continue to support the same types of activities they were originally intended to support. The Supporting Organization Scenario If CMA simply becomes a supporting organization of MNA, distributions from the funds would continue to go to CMA, since CMA would still exist as a separate corporate entity. The fact that MNA might control the selection ofCMA's board would not affect CMA's status as the beneficiary of the funds. This assumes, of course, that CMA would continue to engage in the same type ofvolunteerism programming that the funds were intended to suppmt. The Merger Scenario If CMA was dissolved in order to merge with MNA, we would look at the language of the fund agreements for guidance as to how to proceed. I have enclosed for your 6035 Executive Drive • Suite 104 • Lansing, MI 48911 517-272-2870 • Fax 517-272-2871 • www.crcfoundation.org For good. For ever.- · �Kyle Caldwell November 30,2006 Page2 information copies of the relevant documentation regarding each of these endowment funds, and discuss that documentation below. The ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund The ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund was originally established to support CMA, and still does so. Note the following provision at the top of page 2 of the fund agreement: In the event of the dissolution of CMA, or if CMA ceases to be a qualified charitable organization, the Foundation shall thereafter continue to hold the assets constituting the Fund and shall distribute the net income and/or principal therefrom to such organizations as in the opinion of the Board of Trustees of the Foundation most nearly meet the purposes of CMA. To the extent that the Board of Directors of CMA may convene at times relevant to this paragraph, the Foundation shall consult with the Board of Directors of CMA to determine an appropriate recipient of the distribution. Although any decision to change the beneficiary of a fund would have to be approved by the Community Foundation's Board of Trustees, I am confident that if CMA merged into MNA, the Community Foundation's Board would honor a request by CMA's Board to have the beneficiary of the fund changed to MNA, to be used for the same volunteerism purposes. The Romney, Mawby, and Campus Compact Funds The George W. Romney Endowment Fund and the Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund were originally established to support the volunteerism efforts of MNA. However, MNA subsequently requeste.d that the beneficiary of these funds be changed to CMA (for the same type ofvolunteerism programs). See Sam Singh's letter of December 17, 2002. The Michigan Campus Compact Endowment Fund was originally established by MNA as a subfund of the Romney Fund (see Sam Singh's letter of September 1, 2000, along with the attached page from the grant contract), and its beneficiary was changed to CMA along with the Romney Fund. Again, see Sam Singh's letter of December 17, 2002. Note that in the December 171h letter, Sam Singh stated that the requested change in benefiCiary was conditioned upon the following: that in the event CMA was dissolved, MNA would once again become the beneficiary of these funds. I am therefore confident that in the event ofCMA's merger with MNA, the Community Foundation Board would authorize distributions from these funds to be made to MNA, to be used for the same volunteerism purposes. Conclusion Given the language of the documentation, as well as the desire of our Board to have our endowment funds serve their original purpose whenever possible, I am confident that any �Kyle Caldwell November 30, 2006 Page 3 consolidation of MNA and CMA would not change the way in which the distributions from these funds are used. Given the significance of these issues, I would suggest that any merger plan be presented to the Community Foundation's Board prior to the plan's implementation, _so that you could proceed with confidence regarding the manner in which future distributions are handled. I hope that this information is helpful, Kyle. Please feel free to give me a call should you wish to further discuss the matter.

Ratification of New Funds Administratively Approved - There were no new funds during this time period for ratification. B. Confidential Report on Funds Under Negotiation- Fliehman reported possible new funds established by both Eaton Rapids and Potterville Schools. In addition, we recently received an inquiry from a grant recipient on the possibility of establishing a fund . C. Change of Beneficiary for CMA Funds- A memo was distributed to the Board in regards to the ConnectMichigan Alliance Fund and its related funds, and changing the beneficiary of these funds to Michigan Nonprofit Association, in light of the recent CMAIMNA merger. It was MSC: Wilson/Maxwell to approve making the Michigan Nonprofit Association the �CRCF Board Meeting July 24, 2007 Page 5 beneficiary of the ConnectAIIiance Fund, the Russell G. Maw by Endowment Fund, the George W . Romney Endowment Fund, and the Michigan Campus Compact Endowment Fund. VI. STRATEGIC PLANNING Mission, Vision, Values and Goals -A proposed document was distributed to Trustees prior to the Board meeting for their input. A suggestion for a wording change under 'Accountability' was received and the new wording was provided at today's meeting for review. Donovan reviewed the document item by item and Fliehman provided expositional background. The ' Accountability' wording change suggested by Maxwell was agreed to by the group: "CRCF is accountable for its actions, as demonstrated through its transparency and competence. Transparency is measured against factors of candor, objectivity, and integrity, while competence is measured against factors of efficiency, effectiveness, knowledge, and respect." For the " Strategy and Goals" section, the idea was to identify the strategies and how to achieve them, and to identify benchmarks at a later point in time. Solomon questioned the measurement of Strategic Goal # 1.2 (Collaborate with local funders to ensure that the region ' s youth population has access to necessary personal development resources) and several outcome measures were suggested as options. Because the actual project for the youth initiative has not yet been chosen, nor have the targeted ages been identified (currently 'youth' is being defmed as 0-18, but the focus may shift to certain ages within this range), it was decided to not identify specific outcome measures at this time. After discussion, it was agreed to adopt the following wording change for Goal #1.2: "Progress toward achieving the goal will be measured by the aggregate numbers of organizations and funding dollars brought together for this purpose, the aggregate number of youth served by them, as well as specific outcome measures to be determined." The measurement for Strategic Goal #3.1 (Maximize the productivity of the Foundation' s operations .. . ) was thought to need clarification based on the vagueness of the goal itself. After discussion, it was agreed to change the wording for this goal to the following: " Progress toward achieving this goal can be measured by the efficiency and effectiveness of work accomplished by staff members." The language under Strategic Goal #4.1 (Become recognized as a community leader. . . ) was also discussed. The suggestion was made to add the word ' value' after ' visibility' , and to strike out the words ' more importantly.' It was agreed that the sentence should now read: "The Foundation will gain visibility and value for the programs and activities in which it is engaged through expanded advertising and public relations efforts and by achieving positive program impact throughout the community." It was MSC: Solomon/Aigra to approve the CRCF Mission, Vision, Values and Goals document with the above wording changes. Vll. CHAIR' S REPORT Blackett did not have a report at this time. Vill. PRESIDENT'S REPORT A. Activity Report: Fliehman recently gave four presentations for possible agency funds, and met with 5 donors and professional advisors. B. Office Space Expansion Update: The Executive Committee approved giving Fliehman the authority to enter to a lease agreement on terms at least as favorable as the landlord' s proposal received on 6/26/07. After the Executive Committee meeting, Fliehman had further room to negotiate and we received a proposal that contained even better terms. A new lease has been �CRCF Board Meeting July 24, 2007 Page6 received for signature; after a couple of minor details are clarified, we will be able to sign the lease and commence the expansion work and renovations. As Trustees were previously aware, former Trustee Bob Carr passed away on July 4th. Fliehman read from a Jetter he wrote to his wife Julie that paid tribute to him and his many contributions to the Foundation. CRCF made a gift to the YMCA Endowment Fund in his honor. A memorial gift in Carr's honor was also received from former CRCF Executive Director Mary Olson, and the touching note that accompanied the gift was read aloud. Watters reported that Capitol National Bank is gathering stories about Carr commemorating his life. They plan to collect them and publish them as a book. There is a link on the Capitol National Bank website if any one would like to share a tale. It was suggested that a tribute of some kind be made at the 20th Anniversary Breakfast. IX. OTHER BUSINESS/ROUNDTABLE Student Trustee Alley had a suggestion that in addition to the two Y AC representatives on YIC, that the committee consider obtaining input from other youth in the community, specifically those youth who might benefit from the initiative. Board members highlighted their recent professional and personal achievements/activities. There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 5:05p.m. Respectfully submitted, Traci Goulding, Executive Assistant Nancy L.

The process set forth in this document includes a brief history of the endowment , a review process that affirmed the donor intent for the endowment proceeds, and specific guidance for FY 2011-2014. Background: The ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) Endowment was created on July 13, 2000 with the signing of Senate Bill 968 by Governor John Engler. This bill established the state funded challenge grant of $10 million which was to be matched 1:1 by private funds that would be permanently endowed to support volunteer infrastructure in Michigan. The $20 million campaign was completed in 2005 with payouts completed in 2007 and permanently housed at the Capital Region Community Foundation (CRCF) as part of a compliment of agency funds assigned to the ConnectMichigan Alliance (a 501 c 3 nonprofit corporation). In 2007, the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) merged with the Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) and transferred all responsibilities for these assets to the board of MNA. The board of CRCF approved the assignment of the CMA Endowment proceeds to MNA in July of 2007. As part of the merger agreement, the boards of MNA and CMA agreed to establish an advisory committee within the board of MNA. The CMA Endowment Advisory Committee works to ensure that MNA, as the partner with fiduciary authority of the endowment, allocates the funds in a manner that is genuine, reasonable, and in accordance with the intended purpose of the original donors to the endowment . The original CMA Endowment partner organizations, the Michigan Campus Compact (MCC), Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM), MNA, and the Michigan Community Service Commission (MSCS) have designated members to serve on the CMA Endowment Advisory Committee. A review of these practices was conducted in October 2010 by an Ad Hoc committee and accepted by the MNA Board of Directors on December14, 2010. The findings of that committee are as follows : �1. The Committee believes that the original donor intent has been preserved and the proceeds handled in accordance with their wishes. 2. Staff of MNA is encouraged to continue to find productive and innovative ways for the MCSC and MNA to partner to encourage and support service and volunteer infrastructure. 3. During this time of economic stress and political uncertainty, MNA should continue, and prepare to redouble its advocacy efforts on behalf of the MCSC to ensure its important leadership role in promoting and leveraging resources for volunteerism, national service, and service-learning. Guidance for Allocation of CMA Endowment Proceeds (annual process) This document is designed to guide current and future leaders of MNA in the allocation ofthe CMA Endowment proceeds. Annually, staff of MNA will present to the CMA Endowment Advisory Committee, a plan for the allocation of CMA Endowment proceeds. The plan should include the following: • Fund performance including asset size, growth over the previous year, and projected allocation amount for the upcoming fiscal year; • MNA organizational budget that designates the allocation of the Endowment proceeds as revenue, expenses projected to be charged to the endowment proceeds revenue line; and • Staff recommendations on allocation reinvestment (if any). This process should precede and inform the annual budget meeting of the Finance Committee of MNA. The MNA Board of Directors will then consider the recommendations as part of its annual review and adoption of the fiscal year budget. Specific Guidance for FY 2011-2014 The CMA Endowment partner organizations will propose to the MNA Board, the allocation of specific funds for the fiscal years of 2011-2014 to ensure that review finding #2 (above) is upheld. In effort to do so, MNA will establish CMA Endowment Partnership Funding Allocation Guidelines as follows: For the period of July 2011 through June 2014, the CMA Endowment partner organizations agree to 9llocate no less than $150,000 to joint partner projects that meet the following guidelines: 1. Revenue from the CMA Endowment proceeds will be placed in a three-fiscal year restricted fund to support CMA Endowment Partnership Initiatives that focus on the original donor intent. 2. All approved initiatives must be conceived, proposed, and implemented with the full support of all CMA Endowment partner organizations and reviewed annually as part ofthe normal MNA budgeting process which includes the aforementioned CMA Endowment Advisory Committee. �3. All approved initiatives must demonstrate the benefit to the CMA Endowment partners, the state's volunteer infrastructure, and/or the field of service and volunteerism in Michigan its regions and local communities. In addition, the proposed project will be the collective responsibility of the partners and not the sole responsibility of any one partner. 4. Projects may contribute to the ongoing technology infrastructure development for the state 5. Approved projects may include those which would leverage additional funding {local, state, or national) for partner projects. Please Note: for the funding period of July 2011-June 2014, the partners may propose plans that would carry forward any unexpended dollars to future years in effort to grow the joint fund. The endowment proceeds and related expenses will be tracked as part of the organization's quarterly budget review and presented to the MNA Board of Directors at their regularly scheduled meetings. This plan will be reviewed annually by the staff of MNA and the CMA Endowment partners . �Attachment F �Michigan Nonprofit Association ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) Endowment Advisory Committee (Investment Committee) Edward 0.
