Advancing giving. Date: February 1, 2008 Memo to: Diana Sieger, Chairperson, and Members of the Board of Trustees From: David Lindberg Rob Collier RE: Community Foundation Endowment Funds as reviewed by the Audit and Executive Committees Community Foundation Endowment Fund Note 1: Spendable Income The increase from 2007-08 is due to the accumulated surplus (primarily investment income) that was moved from the WKKF III grant in late 2005 into this fund and the rebound of the stock market over the last several years. Note 2: Other Grants The C.S. Mott Foundation has made a $6,500 grant for travel outside of Michigan to support community foundation activities that are not directly related to CMF member foundations. This travel includes international community foundation and national work that supports the field in general. Note 3: Conference Income & Expenses The CEO Retreat will be held in Ohio in February 2009 and therefore all revenue and expenses will run through the Ohio Grantmakers Forum.

Rather than using these fees to support the ongoing activities of the Community Foundation Endowment Fund the yearly amounts are being rolled into the corpus of this fund. Because this amount is not being used to fund the annual operations nothing was budgeted for 2008-09, even though the KYIP project w ill continue into 2009. Note 5: W ages & Benefits $ 10,000 of the increase from the prior year is due to the allocation of 10% of the Directory of Technology's time to community foundation work starting 4-1-08 as we work to bring all community foundation websites in house. The remaining increase is due to the budgeted adjustments in wages and benefits for 2008-09. The following staff wages are charged to this endowment fund.

Community foundations with assets between $15 and $100 million are eligible to receive Bill's support in the event they lose their key FIMS operator. The amount of support will be determined on a case-by-case basis. Computers Grants In 2007-08 a grant will be made to the Community Foundation for the Upper Peninsula (CFUP) to help match CFUP funds for technology replacement costs for the FIMS hub which processes the financial information for several community foundations including three in the Lower Peninsula.

Advancing giving. February 11, 2008 Memo to: Members of the Board ofTrustees From: Diana Sieger, Chairperson, and Members of the Executive Committee Re: Proposed Amendment to the Bylaws The Executive Committee has reviewed the following Resolution and recommends the proposed Amendment to the Bylaws making the Audit Committee a Standing Committee. RESOLVED that Article V of the Bylaws be amended to redesignate Section 4. Other Committees as Section 6 of Article V and that a new Section 4 be added to read in its entirety as follows: Section 4. Audit Committee. The Audit Committee shall be appointed by the Chairman with the approval or subsequent ratification of the Board and shall be comprised of four or more members, ea ch of whom shall have been affirmatively determined by the Board to be independent. The Audit Committee will assist the Board of Trustees in fulfilling its fiduciary responsibilities by overseeing the corporation' s financial reporting and public disclosure activities as described in the Audit Committee Charter as adopted by the Board and amended from time to time. The Audit Committee charter was last reviewed in February 2007 and is attached to this resolution. Background Lloyd Yeo, a member of the Audit Committee and CMF Trustee, has recommended that the CMF Board consider making the Audit Committee a standing committee in the Bylaws. Mr. Yeo feels it is appropriate to take this step with the increased pressure from Congress, the IRS and the public on accountability and stewardship by both the business and nonprofit sectors that started with the passing of the Sarbanes Oxley Act. Attached is Article V. Committees from the Bylaws that specifies the Executive, Governance, Supporting Organization and M ichigan Community Foundation Youth Project as the four permanent standing committees of CMF. Also attached is the Board approved Charter for the Audit Committee.

Advancing giving. Date: February 1, 2008 Memo to: Diana Sieger, Chairperson, and Members of the Board of Trustees From: Robert Collier David Lindberg RE: CMF 2008-09 Proposed Budget The following Resolution is presented fo r your consideration and approval. RESOLVED, that the 2008-09 CMF Core Services and Endowment Funds Budgets, as recommended by the Audits and Executive Committees, be approved. CMF Core Member Services Revenue Note 1: Membership Investment Based on payments received through I2-3I-07 it appears membership will total $971,000 for 2007-08, which is the fourth year of the current dues structure. Revenue is budgeted to increase in the new fiscal year due to the following items: Increase in members' asset levels Net new members II @ $900 each Total 25,000 IO,OOO $35,000 Note 2: Additional Member Contributions The major share of this category continues to be the $150,000 contribution from Kellogg, a five year $150,000/yr grant that expires at the end of2009-10. Note 3: Other Grants In November 2005 CMF received a 3-year $25,000/yr grant from The Skillman Foundation to support the occupancy cost for the Southeast Michigan office. 2008-09 represents the final year of this grant. �Note 4: Conference & Meetings As of 12-31-07 the October 2007 Annual Conference in Dearborn, will generate a surplus of$80,000-$85,000, which is down from the $139,000 surplus generated by the Kalamazoo October 2006 Annual Conference. The primary reason for the decrease is due to the increased food and A V costs in Dearborn that were approximately 50% higher than Kalamazoo. The October 2008 Annual Conference has been budgeted to generate a surplus of $ 123,000. The increase from the prior year is due to the following meetings: Being an Effective Board Chair Building Your Advocacy Eye Q Four Connecting Point Philanthropy Round Tables Storytelling iSchool Family Foundation Retreat - Mackinac Island increased costs and registration fees $4,500 3,900 3,400 2,600 4,800 6,400 26,000 Note 5: Publications Income The fall of2008 would nonnally be the time for publishing the next edition (161h) of the Michigan Foundation Directory. After looking at the current inventory as of 12-31-07 (600 from the originall,35~ produced) stan-recommends the next edition (l61h) be produced in late spring or early summer 2009. This delay should allow the current edition to be sold at full price longer than originally anticipated thus increasing the total profit. By delaying the next release date, it may create more interest for the next edition. Note 6: Investment Earnings 2008-09 is the first year that spendable income is available from the Core Services Endowment Fund. The earnings from operating funds are anticipated to decrease slightly due to the anticipated reduction in special projects. �Expenses Note 7: Wages & Benefits A 4% overall wage increase has been budgeted for 2008-09. The increase from 2007-08 is due to the following: 4% Wage Increase (includes FICA and retirement) 13% Health Insurance Increase Reduction in admin for special projects Foundation Liaison, project ends 9-30-08 ECIC not budgeted 08-09 Director of Corporate Services hired late 07-08 Increase staff allocations to CF Endow and MCFV Dir of Tech. & VP of Finance 07-08 staff reductions that did not take place until July 2007 Staff allocations to Philanthropy 3D and Diversity Projects new 08-09 $36,000 8,500 4,000 10,000 44,000 (26,500) (30,000) (35,000) Note 8: Technology Additional costs for 2008-09: Replace 1/3 of desktops Blog software Mass Email software 5,000 2,000 2,400 Note 9: Communications/Publications The reduction from the prior year is due to completion ofthe work of the media relations consultant hired in 07-08 to make recommendations on how to expand media relations at CMF. Note 10: Professional & Contracted Services The decrease from the prior year is due to the completion ofthe work of Sandy Ulsh in 07-08, who conducted interviews with corporate members about services they would like from CMF. Expenses for 2008-09 Newsclip service Lobbying/Advocacy - Michigan - Public Affairs Assoc. Legal - Clark Hill Audit Fees Mise $4,500 18,000 11 ,000 4,500 2,000 �This is the last year of the contract with Rehmann Robson for Audit Services. Thus Audit costs in 2009-10 are expected to increase.

INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE The Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) is a membership organization of foundations and corporate giving programs with a mission to strengthen, promote and increase philanthropy in the State of Michigan. In order to assure that CMF operates in the highest ethical standards, much of the Board's oversight occurs through the standing committees of the Board, such as the Audit Committee. The primary function of the Audit Committee is to assist the Board of Trustees in fulfilling its fiduciary responsibilities by overseeing CMF's financial reporting and public disclosure activities. The Audit Committee's primary duties and responsibilities are to: Assist Board oversight of (I) the integrity of CMF's financial statements, (2) CMF's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (3) the independent auditor's qualifications and independence, and (4) the perfonnance of the CMF's independent auditors. The Audit Committee will fulfill these responsibilities primarily by carrying out the activities specified in Section IV ofthis Charter. The Audit Committee, in its capacity as a committee of the Board of Trustees, shall be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, and oversight of the work of any independent auditor employed by CMF (including resolution of disagreements between management and the auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work, and each such independent auditor shall report directly to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee shall have the authority to retain, without prior pennission from the Board or management, special legal, accounting or other consultants to advise the Committee, provided the fees for those services are reasonable. CMF shall provide for appropriate funding, as detem1ined by the Audit Committee, in its capacity as a committee of the Board of Trustees, for payment of compensation to any advisors employed by the Committee. S:\Boards and Committees\CMF\Audit\Charter 12- ll-06.doc �II. COMPOSITION The members of the Audit Committee shall be elected by the Board and shall serve for a period of time not to exceed their maximum tenn as trustee ofCMF or its supporting organizations. At a minimum the committee shall consist of four members - one trustee from both Midwest Community Foundations' Ventures and the Michigan AIDS Fund and hvo from the Council of Michigan Foundations. A. Independence The Audit Committee shall be comprised of four or more members each of whom shall have been affirmatively determined by the Board to be independent. B. Financial Literacy and Expertise Each member of the Audit Committee shall be financially literate; as such qualification is interpreted by CMF's Board of Trustees in its business judgment, or must become financially literate within a reasonable period of time after his or her appointment to the Audit Committee. III. MEETINGS The Audit Committee shall meet at least three times annually, or more frequently as circumstances dictate. One of those meetings shall focus on review and approval of annual audited financial statements with the independent auditors. A second meeting will focus on reviewing the annual budget. A majority of the Audit Committee members currently holding office constitutes a quorum for the transaction of a business. The Audit Committee shall take action by the affirmative vote of a majority of committee members present at a duly held meeting. IV. RESPONSIBILITIES AND DUTIES The Audit Committee shall undertake the following responsibilities and duties. A. Retain and terminate, if necessary, CMF's independent auditors and pre-approve all audit and non-audit services. S:\Boards and Committees\CMF\Audit\Charter 12- ll-06.doc 2 �B. Obtain and review the peer review performed every three years on the independent aud itor describing the firm's internal quality-control procedures. C. Discuss the annual audited financial statements with management and the independent auditor. D. Periodically review the internal financial statements with management. E. Review major changes to CMF's accounting principles and practices, financial reporting process, and system of internal controls, as suggested by CMF's independent auditor or management. F. During the annual audit review process consult with the independent auditor, outside the presence of management, about the auditor's judgments regarding the quality, and not just the acceptability, of CMF's accounting principles as applied to its financial reporting, and CMF's internal controls and the completeness and accuracy of CMF's financial statements. G. Review with the independent auditor any audit problems or difficulties and management's response. H. Report to the Board of Trustees at each Board meeting. I. Review the significant findings from supervisory examination reports of state and federal agencies and the corrective action taken by management to such reports, as applicable. J. Qualification While the Audit Committee has the responsibilities and powers set forth in this Charter, it is not the duty or responsibility of the Audit Committee to plan or conduct audits or to determine that CMF's financial statements are complete and accurate and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These are the responsibilities ofCMF's management and the independent auditor. While it is not the responsibility of the Audit Committee to conduct investigations or to assure compliance with laws and regulations, the committee is responsible to make sure any non-compliance issues that come to their attention are properly dealt with. The Audit Committee serves as liaison between the Board of Trustees and management, and assumes any duties either requested or directed by the Board of Trustees, and provides relevant financial information to the Board members on a timely basis.

Here are a few ways we've greened things up: Paper-less, but not Paper-free While not yet paper-free, we tried to lessen the amount of paper used and distributed in the following ways: Biodegradable Pens and Conference Banners The bio-pen attached to your program guide is 80% biodegradable and our large conference banners are printed on biodegradable vinyl. ~ Conference Program, Learning Journal & Roster The program guide is printed on recycled paper and a participant roster was e-m ailed to participants prior to the event instead of being included in the print program, reducing the number of program pages by half. Plastic Nametag Reuse Each year, we reuse the plastic nametags returned at the registration booth after the conference. Be sure to stop by and turn yours in at the close of the conference. ~ Session Handouts Speakers were asked to refrain from printing session handouts and instead make them available for download on our conference web site. This effort improves the quality, availability and timeliness of handouts and resources and enables participants to print the handouts that are right for them either at home, the office or in the Cyber Cafe during the conference. Recycling ~ Glass & Porcelain for Beverages Bottled water and paper cups will not be used during the conference. Instead, glass and porcelain cups will be available during coffee and snack breaks. ~ Marketing Our online registration brochure viewer enabled us to print fewer brochures and use a tree in our conference theme instead of using trees to print brochures. Postcards were printed on FSC mixed sources (recycled wood and fiber and wellmanaged forests). Re~ycling bins for paper, plastic and glass are loca e throughout the conference for your use. \ Linen & Towel Reuse Program If you are staying at the Amway Grand, we encourage you to use their linen and towel reuse program in your guest room, saving water and energy. �Mannr Tham.k~ ~o our Spon~or~9 Y ounda~iom Suppofier~ { Exinilitior General Information ........................... 5 YIVE STAR Resource Central ............. . ............... 5 Frey Foundation W.K.

The Sun Sprint involved using problem solving, math and science to build a solar-powered racecar and then racing it. In the Trash Dash, students were given supplies to build a battery-operated racecar out of reusable materials. Both projects allowed students to learn more about energy transfer, aerodynamics, renewable energy applications as well as waste and resource management. Teachers were given packets to guide them in a teaching curriculum as they guide their students as they design, build and then race their creations. The most significant grant was a 3-year, $75,000 grant to the Neutral Zone (Ann Arbor's teen center) for new program at their new location. This grant was part of a larger grant (total of $150,000 over three years) made in collaboration with AAACF’s Distribution Committee. This will allow NZ to focus on new program offerings to teens in the community as well as provide time for NZ to develop a strategy for long-term program sustainability. Last year we granted $4,800 to Barry County Christian School. They used this money to purchase supplies to create a Quality baseball program. I feel that this grant had the largest impact on our community because Barry County Christian didn't have a baseball program before this grant. This cooperative project between the Monroe County Sheriff’s Department and all the fourth graders in Bedford Schools, involved the fourth graders writing letters to the senior students at the high school. The letters told the seniors how they were role models for the younger students and how important it was for them not to drink or use drugs. All the fourth grade students were taken to the high school to personally deliver their letters to the seniors. Senior students reported that it really made an impact to know how the younger kids viewed them and to see how important it was to be a good role model for the younger students. New Buffalo Foursquare Church--New Buffalo Community Youth Center. Funding for development and maintenance of recreational and healthful programs at NBCYC, so that the potential of the youth population will be maximized. The grant we made to Pregnancy Services of Greater Lansing for their SMART (Sexually Mature Aware Responsible Teens) program. Our grant helped cover the cost of employment for part-time presenters to area middle and high schools, encouraging teens to choose abstinence from pre-marital sexual activity and related behaviors. Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation Barry Community Foundation Bedford Community Foundation Berrien Community Foundation Capital Region Community Foundation �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Charlevoix County Community Foundation A grant to North Central Michigan College in support of the Native American Mentoring Program. The program will bring 30 Native American students (grades 7 - 9) to the college campus for a 5-day residential summer youth camp experience. The purpose of the camp experience is to expose the students to a college setting, mentoring in career guidance, and a renewal of their Native American culture. They gave money to a Library for a Summer Reading Program. That should impact the kids a good way by keeping them excited about reading in the summer. Clare County Community Foundation ClioYAC Community Foundation for Muskegon County Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field The grant with the most impact in 2007 in my opinion would be the Clio High School - High Impact Alcohol Awareness Program - Save A Life Tour. This program provided education to high school students about the risks involved in underage drinking in an interactive and innovate manner. Students participated in video game-type driving simulations as well as heard from speakers with personal or family instances of tragedy related to drinking and driving. While this grant was for $2,000 it doesn't show up in the above figures because it was made during the middle of the YAC year which falls after the end of the Foundation's fiscal year. The YAC granted $30,000 to the County of Muskegon to support the Juvenile Justice Needs Assessment portion of the Muskegon County Master Plan. This needs assessment will be linked with the Family Court Title V Juvenile Delinquency assessment to develop a comprehensive vision for meeting future juvenile justice needs in Muskegon County. As one of our YAC students said, "I think the Ready, Set, Swim! Project is the best grant we've ever given." This project is designed to teach area youth how to swim at an early age. The student said he would probably be a better swimmer if the project had been around when he was younger. (He's a pretty insightful eleventh grader.) The Youth Initiative awarded a grant to Southwest Counseling Solutions for support for a mentoring program for at-risk youth, matching 10 peer mentors with 20 youth (1 youth/1 mentor for a 6-month period of time) to provide opportunities for the mentors to offer encouragement and support. The YAC members themselves recruited and trained the peer mentors. The mentors and youth participated in in weekly activities including workshops, youth groups, game and movie nights and group outings. The YAC members felt this was an important connection because they believe that troubled youth are more likely to learn form their peers than from adults. They also identified benefits for the mentors, such as public speaking skills and developing leadership skills. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Community Foundation of Greater Rochester Girls on the Run: We granted $5,000 to start a Girls on the Run program here in Rochester. The program teaches young girls how to reach goals and have confidence in themselves. It uses aerobic training activities building up to a 5k run at the end of the program year. Be The Change Group - Purpose to break down walls and learn to respect each other at the school level for who each student within a school system. In 2006 the Youth Advisory Committee funded the Suspending Bridges Program at the Bridge Youth Ministry Center in Zeeland Michigan. The Suspension program serves middle school students on out-of-school suspension. On the day(s) of suspension, students report to The Bridge, an after school program, for a day of tutoring, behavior management, community service, nutrition and health. This program was so successful in the Zeeland Community School District that the YAC funded another organization to replicate the model in the West Ottawa School District. The YAC awarded a grant for $3,500 for the Linden High School Start Spring Smart Project. In my opinion this was the most impactful grant as it reached the total school population of an area high school with speakers, and activities reinforcing the importance of good decision making, particularly as it relates to drug and alcohol use. The project occurs every year right before spring break which is a high risk time for youth to be involved in risky behaviors. Our YAC gave a grant of $15,000 to help build the Mulligan's Hollow Skate Park. This grant will provide fun, safe recreational activities for 10,000 skate boarders and BMX bikers each year. Community Foundation of Monroe County Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area Fenton Area Community Fund Grand Haven Area Community Foundation Coopersville Area Community Foundation Grand Rapids Community Foundation Greenville Area Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field NEOFORUM- helps the school and city with a program that addresses poor choices in alcohol, drugs etc. though the presence of a police office and counselor on campus to educate the students on correct behavior and to help to prevent or control some of the poorer choices. Library- Designated a youth laptop for after school usage. The YGC's greatest impact this year came not from a grant, but from the press they generated around the release of the survey results. Local media gave this survey significant coverage. Mentor a Mom program where young mothers are matched up with mentors to provide support as they learn how to be a parent. There are play dates for the mothers, children and mentors as well as educational programs. This is a program that closely aligns with one of the focus areas that was determined as a need by the youth in the community. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Hillsdale County Community Foundation $4,916.87 was granted to the Digital Desktop Publishing Class at Hillsdale High School. These funds were used to fund costs associated with creating and distributing a series of studentcreated “What’s Your Anti-Drug” commercials. These commercials were distributed to local schools in Hillsdale County through the Channel One system, and were also aired on the local community access cable channel. Huron County Community Foundation YAC was a sponsor of the "Embrace our Earth" Day a Huron Intermediate School District event that is aimed at youth and the community at large to foster a respect and appreciation for our environment. To provide matching funds to open a library Ionia County Community Foundation Iosco County Community Foundation Jackson County Community Foundation Kalamazoo Community Foundation/Youth United Way Keweenaw Community Foundation Leelanau Township Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field YAC awarded a grant to a Challenge Day motivational assembly for all Iosco County students. The main focus was on understanding peers, eliminating the "clique" society of high school, bridging gaps between the popular and the not-sopopular, etc. Reviews of the assembly from other schools and from students who had attended it before were glowing. Students said they made new friends that day with kids they had sat by, but to whom they have never spoken. $5,000 was given to Project Reconnect which funded a get-away for 55 soldiers in our county returning from Iraq, along with their families. The grant the group feels has the greatest chance for impact was given to Catholic Family Services to hold classes for Pregnant and/or Parenting Teens. We feel that by teaching teens to be better parents, the cycle of teens having babies who will be teen parents can be broken. The parent, whether a teen or not, is the first teacher of every child and we want every teen who is a parent to have the skills necessary to help their children succeed. The YAC has just begun to grant after a period of inactivity. They granted to the Keweenaw Krayons at the end of the 2006/2007 school year for the Keweenaw Guerrillas program. The program aimed at involving teens and pre-teens in a community activity wherein they can feel a sense of community by helping others in a very different way. The YAC put on an event called YACapalooza. It was a community event that was held the same week-end as National Turn-Off your T.V. Week-end. There was food, music and activities for youth and adults as well. It brought together the Community and made people a lot more aware of YAC and what they are about. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Lenawee Community Foundation Catholic Charities of Lenawee received monies to support a 12 step program for teens. The goal of the program is to provide a safe place to assist youth toward recovery from alcohol and chemical dependency, and help teens develop healthy coping skills, by sharing thoughts and feelings about their current conditions and future plans. Because of the numbers involved 2 different groups of 15 met every other week. The initial program evolved to serve only boys, because of the numbers wanting help and another grant was fulfilled in our current fiscal year to provide 2 groups one for males and one for females. This year one of our past foundation presidents wanted to recognize area youth for their volunteer efforts. She brought the idea to the YACs and challenged them to come up with a plan to achieve her vision. The YACs developed the Young Philanthropist Award which recognizes young volunteer for their commitment to community service. The recipient receives a scholarship and a donation is made to the charity of their choice in their name. They awarded $5000 to the Moosewood Nature Center to provide outdoor classroom activities to over $1500 pre-K to HS students in Marquette County. An indirect benefit is the exposure Moosewood received. The River Safety Project here in Big Rapids. The YAC students asked the committee to come in for a presentation. They presented a grant request and the group approved. The funds were used to purchase a water safety sign along the river with the MCYAC logo. The Midland County Juvenile Care Center was given a grant that funded 4-eight week sessions providing a series of critical life skills in a safe, controlled environment involving the Midland Community Center's rock climbing wall. The participants started by learning physical and mental aspects of climbing safety, and the importance of trust and responsibility. Each week they learned skills like overcoming fear, trusting others, communicating effectively...etc. This project helped change the lives of kids in need and get them thinking about how they can change their lives for the better. M&M Area Community Foundation Marquette Community Foundation Mecosta County Community Foundation Midland Area Community Foundation The Living Hope Assembly of God in Beaverton was granted $6040. The purpose of this grant was to fund a Family Park that is free of drugs and alcohol and encouraging family unity. Its central location would be accessible to economically challenged families. YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation In October 2006, the YAC awarded a $5,000 grant to Mt. Pleasant High School to help support their "Teen Summit" and to specifically fund representative from the "Challenge Day" Program to be involved in the day. The Teen Summit was held in February 2007 and was set up like a conference with a variety of speakers/presentations available for students to choose from with the topics falling under the broad umbrella of Teen Victimization. There were small intensive breakout sessions during the day and a concluding keynote speaker from Challenge Day with their empowering "Be the Change" message. Student and staff groups spent months planning the Summit and 1500 students A $1,200 grant was awarded to Mio-AuSable School District for a Mobile Lab initiative, which purchased laptop computers for the high school. Because this school is so rural and lacks much needed funding, this grant provided an opportunity for students to have access to current technology and develop more of the skills needed to succeed in today's business world. Mini-Grants for Educators. It really helps educators provide programs that are above and beyond the basics. Because funding for education in Michigan is extremely tight, the mini-grants for educators can make the difference. Vanderbilt Middle School Family Night- Provided a program for families to enjoy activities together. The program was conducted the fall of 2006 and winter of 2007. Between 40 and 70 families participated each week. The "Connecting" Art Project for Youth in the Probate Court School had a big impact with those youth and the community that works with at risk youth. This grant received a "Great Grant" award this past summer at the Youth Summer Leadership Conference. Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) for the Houghton Lake Community Schools "County Wide Health Fair". Approximately 350 people attended the fair. There was also an assembly for K-12 students which had a speaker who addressed all the students about the need to make wise choices in their lives. Emphasized were the dangers of tobacco, alcohol and other drugs. The speaker also addressed parents at a well-attended parent meeting. In addition to the above mentioned issues were the following: proper dental care with free tooth brushes, sun awareness, seatbelt safety, healthy weight and exercise awareness. Curves, Weight Watchers and American Cancer Society had tables. North Central Michigan Community Foundation Osceola County Community Foundation Otsego County Community Foundation Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation Roscommon County Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Saginaw Community Foundation FORCE In a matter of four days, Azim Khamisa reached out to over 2,600 students, youth, teachers, and community members to help spread his message of civic responsibility, anti-violence, and human understanding. His inspiring journey lasted from April 24th to April 28th, and was sponsored by many community organizations including a $1,000.00 grant from the Saginaw Community Foundation’s Youth FORCE. In 1995, Tariq Khamisa, a student at San Diego State University and Azim Khamisa?s only son, was shot and killed by 14-yearold Tony Hickes, while delivering pizzas. Since that day, Azim’s life has never been the same. Instead of choosing a life of retribution and revenge, he decided to take action and make something positive happen from his son’s tragedy. He went from a successful international investment banker to a social worker in a matter of months, starting the Tariq Khamisa Foundation (TKF) to stop kids from killing kids. Azim brought his message to Saginaw, confronting middle school and high school students about a topic that is not easy to talk about- youth and gang violence. However, having first-hand knowledge of the effects of violence, Azim more than captured the audiences’ attention- he engaged them. During one portion of Azim’s presentation, he asks the audience “how many of you have lost a family member to violence”. The number of students in 6th grade that raised their hands was astonishing. At some of the schools, seventy five percent of the students stated that they had lost someone close to them due to violence. Sanilac Count Community Foundation Southeast Ottawa Community Foundation Straits Area Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field During Azim’s trip, the message he shared will surely resonate with students long after he is gone. He had a connection with the students, an understanding. During his presentation at the Saginaw County Juvenile Detention Center, many of the kids were in tears. Because Azim’s message was hitting so close to home, the youth were talking about him well after he was gone and many wrote thank-you letters expressing their gratitude for such a positive and life-altering experience. Grant to Sanilac County Kids' Connection for Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention Program Fund the Ottawa County Mentoring Collaborative, which matches mentees with mentors, provides support, training, and incentives to mentors in Ottawa County. A $1,500 grant to an elementary school was a large contributor to a 5th grade class being able to travel to Philadelphia, PA to visit the historic sights. For many students in the Straits area, this is the farthest they ever have, or perhaps ever will, travel. Without this grant, the trip was not likely to have happened. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Sturgis Area Community Foundation $10,000 grant for a program for middle school student called "Be the Change"-it is an anti-bullying, awareness program that received rave reviews from students and parents in the community. Tuscola County Community Foundation $5,000.00 was granted to the Human Development Commission to assist that organization with the development of an AfterSchool Latch Key Program. This program will be open from 3:15 to 6:00 p.m. Monday thru Friday and be open for Kindergarten through grade school students. The unique point of this program is that it will be integrated with a program that provides a similar type of service for senior citizens. So, not only will a valuable community service be provided, but young children and senior citizens will benefit from this group interaction. To fund a teen after-hours program at the library.

Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously approved, RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations support 2-1-1 as an important resource for Michigan residents and therefore support federal legislation S. 211 and H.R. 211 that would provide federal funds to assist states in providing statewide coverage.

Under the leadership ofCMF's Director of Technology, Kathy Ginocchio, all content on the current web site has been analyzed and new conte nt needs defined and prepared for the soft launch. In addition, expanded functi onality is being delivered via the new web site- including online registration, online commerce, access to member profiles, and an expanded member directory of both organizations and individuals. The new domain should drive more visitors to the site and more clearly and directly communicate the membership CMF serves. Kathy also continued to provide leadership for the Forum Knowledge Management Initiative which is producing significant cost savings to CMF and other participating regional associations and vastly improved and integrated systems.

Advancing giving. October 12, 2007 To: Diana Sieger, Chairperson and Members of the Board ofTrustees From: Libby Maynard, Chairperson Government Relations Committee cc: Rob Collier, President Re: Report of the Government Relations Committee The Annual Meeting of the Government Relations Committee was held on October 1 with participation by 15 of the 28 members either by phone or in person. The following report with recommended action is presented for your consideration. I. Update of Legislative Goals Statement RESOLVED that the Legislative Goals Statement, included as Attachment B, be adopted for 2007. Background -National Legislative and Regulatory Issues CMF Public Policy Fellow, Jaclyn Miel-Uken presented a review of recent hearings held by subcommittees of the House Ways and Means Committee and Senate Finance Committee with a focus on: changes needed to the charitable reform provisions in the Pension Bill; charities using offshore hedge funds to avoid unrelated business investment tax, and charities serving lowincome and diverse populations. Her summary of the Hearings is included as Attachment A. The discussion then focused on the following five national goals. Rob Collier reviewed progress on efforts to extend the IRA Charitable Rollover- Goalll, page 6- and noted that the feasibility of having it extended with donor advised funds being included, the age lowered to 59 Y2 and the cap of $100,000 lifted is becoming unlikely. Collier noted that the National Planned Giving Council reports that more than one hundred million has been documented in new giving as a result of the IRA Rollover with the average IRA gift about $15,000. Efforts this fall will focus on extending the Rollover in its current form. Committee members will be asked in November to encourage the leadership of Representative Levin, a member of Ways and Means and Senator Stabenow- a member of Senate Finance. Dave Lindberg, CMF Vice President Finance & Administration, shared that w ith input from members, CMF has filed a letter with the IRS in response to the request for the comments on the proposed changes to the Form 990- Goal16, page 8. He noted that the IRS has already responded to several of the recommendations also coming from the Council on Foundations and Independent Sector, such as the use of percentages on the summary page. �Government Relations Report October 2007 Page 2 Mr. Collier introduced Goal18, page 9, being proposed this year as a result of two discussions with Senator Levin and members of the CMF Investment Committee and a bill now introduced by Representative Levin. Mr. Lindberg then reviewed the issue of foundations and other charities using off shore blockers to avoid Unrelated Business Income Tax (UBIT). Mr. Collier noted that the Council on Foundation has asked CMF to discuss with Representative Levin the feasibility of adding the issue of UBIT on leveraged real estate investments by foundations discussed in Goal10, page 5, to his Bill on hedge funds. Mr. Collier will be meeting with Representative Levin's staff at the end of October. Chairperson Maynard then introduced an amendment to Goal 13, page 7, on the issue of the federal estate tax - namely to support reinstatement of the state estate tax credit at the federal level. This change is tied to the new Goal 9 - opposing reinstatement of a state inheritance tax under the State Legislative Issues. Michigan was receiving about $150 million from the federal government as a result of this estate tax credit but lost the benefit about five years ago with the changes in the federal estate tax. Instead of advocating for Congress to reinstate this credit, a bill has been introduced in the State House of Representatives to reinstate a Michigan Inheritance Tax - repealed in 1993 with strong support from CMF. Background - State Legislative and Regulatory Issues The discussion focused on one existing and three new State Legislative Goals. Mr. Collier and Mr. Richner from Clark Hill conunented that the community foundation tax credit- Goal 5, page 10 - in the Single Business Tax which ends December 31, 2007 has been added to the new Michigan Business Tax (MBT). They noted that the addition of a new credit for K-12 school foundations in the same section of the Bill as the community foundation credit is creating complications which Senator Bishop has indicated he will support correcting by moving the new credit to a separate section of the MBT. Goal9, page 12 opposes reinstatement of a State Inheritance Tax. As noted above, HB 4377the Michigan Estate Tax Act was introduced this winter as one part of the strategy to help deal with the State's fiscal crisis. Mr. Collier noted that in meetings with the House Leadership, it became clear that they did not know about the efforts in 1993 to repeal the State Inheritance Tax in order to reduce the number of residents shifting their residencies to Florida and other southern states. He added that the House Leadership and Governor have indicated that they will not support this bill at this time. Goal 10, page 12, supports legislation to replace the Unifonn Management oflnstitutional Funds Act (UMIFA) with the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (UPMIFA). Mr. Lindberg commented that the changes in UMIF A have been carefully vetted by the Probate and Estate Planning Section of the Michigan Bar, chaired by Robin Ferriby ofthe Community Foundation of Southeast Michigan, and that the legislation is also supported by the Michigan Nonprofit Association. �Government Relations Report October 2007 Page 3 Goalll, page 12, proposes amending the State Limited Liability Company Act to create a "lowprofit limited liability company "(L3C). Mr. Collier explained that this has become a priority of the Council on Foundations and that a foundation from North Carolina has retained former IRS Commission Mark Owens now with the fim1 Caplin and Drysdale to work on this concept. Mr. Collier invited Mr. Tamacki, CMF legal counsel from Clark Hill, who joined him for a recent call with Mr. Owens to explain the benefits of an L3C. There was consensus that as the next step the Committee will meet again to review legislation for the L3C and a plan to obtain bi-partisan legislative support. II. 2008 Foundations on the Hill and the new Congressional Philanthropy Caucus Mr. Collier shared the March dates for 2008 Foundations on the Hill and discussed creation of the new Congressional Philanthropy Caucus by the Council on Foundations. Representative Upton is the only member of the Michigan Congressional delegation that has responded to the letter of invitation from the Caucus Chairs, Representatives Hayes and Tubb-Jones. There was consensus by the Committee that CMF should write letters to the other members of the Michigan Delegation encouraging them to join the Caucus. Mr. Collier reminded Committee members present and on the phone to promote the Annual Conference in Dearborn. There being no further business the meeting was adjourned at 4:08 p.m. We look forward to discussing this report with you. �Attachment A Recent Congressional Hearings on Tax-Exempt Organizations Prepared by Jaclyn Miel-Uken, CMF Public Policy Fellow 9126107 Senate Finance Committee Hearing on Offshore Tax Issues: Reinsurance & Hedge Funds The first in a long series of Senate hearings on offshore tax evasion to include the taxexempt sector, this Hearing explored ways to recoup lost revenue and close perceived loopholes in tax deferral laws through recently proposed S.B. 396, S.B. 1284, S.B. 554 and H.R. 3501- the last of which intends to relieve tax-exempt organizations from structuring hedge funds as foreign fund investments to evade unrelated business income tax (UBIT). Public pension funds, college and university endowments, and other taxexempt organizations that invest in offshore hedge funds to avoid the 35% UBIT were examined.

You may also view the hearing at http://finance.senate.gov/sitepageslhearings.htm. 9/25107 House Ways & Means Oversight Subcommittee Hearing to Examine Whether Charitable Organizations Serve the Needs ofDiverse Communities Subcommittee members learned about the demographic make-up of donors and beneficiaries of philanthropic giving and the limited data sources that inform these statistics. Also discussed was how charities and nonprotits decide to serve the communities they do. The hearing was heavily focused on data needs, Form 990 and how nonprofits partner w ith each other and government to serve diverse communities. The American Red Cross-Hurricane Katrina case was thoroughly discussed.

The Subcommittee was engrossed in learning, asked several questions about donor advised funds and supporting organizations and challenged the idea that inappropriate practices were commonplace.

Advancing giving. Draft Legislative Goals Statement The purpose of the Government Relations Committee of the Council of Michigan Foundations is to seek support for legislative changes at both the state and national levels that will help to strengthen, promote and increase foundation and corporate philanthropy. The CMF Board of Trustees approved the initial Legislative Statement on March I, 1979. Revised statements were approved September 19, 1980; January 27, 1982; May 10, 1983; June 14, 1985; Aprill 2, 1988; February 25, 1992; November 4, 1992; November 8, 1995; October 30, 1996; March 13, 1997; November 4, 1998; October 14, 1999; October 2, 2000, October 2, 2001 , September 29, 2002, November 10, 2003, November 3, 2004, October 10, 2005, October 17, 2006, and October 22, 2007.* I. INTRODUCTION Foundation and corporate giving has long been a unique part of American society, supported by appropriate federal and state legislation and regulations. While there have been refonns at both levels of government to encourage giving, there have also been provisions in past legislation, such as the 1969 Tax Act, and regulations that serve as disincentives for the creation of new foundations, as well as discourage charitable donations to existing foundations. Because the mission of CMF is to strengthen, promote and increase philanthropy in Michigan, the Board of Trustees has adopted as one of six operating goals- to advocate for a legislative and regulatory government conducive to philanthropy. In 1977, the Members ofCMF directed the Board of Trustees to develop a public inforn1ation program that would support and encourage Michigan foundation philanthropy and include communication with public policymakers. A Government Relations Committee was established to implement the program and has continued to represent CMF Members on their legislative interests and priorities. CMF works with foundation and corporate Members, the Council on Foundations, other regional associations of grantmakers and the Forum of Regional Associations ofGrantmakers, Independent Sector, Michigan Nonprofit Association, and other nonprofit organizations to enhance the understanding of public policymakers about philanthropy and to bring about appropriate legislative changes in laws and regulations. As a result of these efforts by CMF and others, the following goals have been accomplished. II.

NATIONAL LEGISLATIVE ISSUES 1. Goal: Maintain the private foundation payout rate at not more than 5 percent to protect the real value of foundations' grantmaking capability. Explanation: In order to preserve the "real" grantmaking capacity of a private foundation, it is important that all historical financial data be taken into consideration. History has shown that a portion of the annual return should be returned to principal. (Reilly/Skadden, University of Michigan Graduate School of Business Administration study sponsored by CMF, 1981 -Private Foundations: The Payout Requirement and Its Effect on Investment and Spending Policies, and a DeMarche Associates, Inc. study *Bolded text signifies 2007 update. Page 2 �"Spending Policies and Investment Planning for Foundations, " 1995, sponsored by the Council on Foundations.) A CMF sponsored study, completed in May 2000 and updated in 2004 by Cambridge Associates, Inc. of the actual performance of a group of Michigan endowed private foundations, confirms the position of maintaining the payout rate at no more than 5 %. The National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy and the National Network of Grantmakers continue to support an increase in the payout to 6% for private foundations. A recommended payout of 5% for community foundations donor advised funds and other donor advised funds, supported by the National Panel convened by Independent Sector at the request of the Senate Finance Committee, was not included in final charitable refom1s included in HR 4 - the Pension Bill that passed in August 2006. As a result of this legislation, the Department of Treasury has undertaken a study of donor advised funds and supporting organizations with a recommended payout likely. 2. Goal: Change the limitation on gifts to a private foundation from 20 percent to 30 percent of AGI for gifts of appreciated property and from 30 percent to 50 percent of AGI for gifts of cash. Explanation: Under existing law, the amount deductible by an individual taxpayer for contributions to private non-operating foundations is computed as a percentage of the donor' s contribution base (in most cases, his or her adjusted gross income). An individual may deduct only 20 percent of the gifts of appreciated property or 30 percent of gifts of cash. On the other hand, an individual taxpayer can deduct up to 50 percent of their contribution base for cash (and 30 percent for appreciated property) for gifts to public charities. 3. Goal: Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer for a gift to a private foundation of certain capital gain property. Explanation: Individual taxpayers may deduct the full fair market value of a gift to a private foundation of appreciated property in the form of publicly-traded stock, ifthe gift is less than 10 percent of the outstanding stock of the company. However, in other cases, such as privately held stock, the amount of deduction continues to be limited to the donor' s cost or basis in the stock if the gift is to a private non-operating foundation. The same gift to a public charity entitles the taxpayer to a full fair market value deduction. 4. Goal: Repeal the excise tax on private foundations. Explanation: The 1984 Tax Act allows the excise tax on investment income to be reduced from two to one percent if a foundation 's payout for the year in question equals or exceeds an amount equal to the year' s assets, times the average payout percentage for the five years, plus 1 percent of the foundation's net investment income. Private foundations are the only 501(c)(3) organizations that currently pay this federal tax. The current fommla is difficu lt to administer and can limit charitable giving. * Bolded text sig nifies 2007 update. Page 3 �Simplification to a flat one percent is an acceptable intermediate step and enjoys bipartisan support in the House and the Senate. While simplification is considered a strategy for promoting giving, efforts to include this in legislation in 2007 have been unsuccessful. The Council on Foundations feels it would be best to promote just one charitable incentive, and extension of the IRA Charitable Rollover beyond 2007 is the goal. 5. Goal: Prevent further efforts to reduce the usefulness of the charitable deduction and repeal the three percent floor on itemized deductions. Explanation: In 1990, after initially considering a cap on all itemized deductions, Congress approved a three percent floor in deductions. This floor was scheduled to expire at the end of 1995, but in 1993 was made permanent. 6. Goal: Limit lineal descendants who are "disqualified persons" at the level of grandchildren. Explanation: In 1984, the law was amended to limit "disqualified persons" to substantial contributors to a foundation and their children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and their spouses. The amendment provided that substantial contributors will no longer be considered "disqualified persons" if, over a ten-year period, they meet certain requirements to distance themselves from the foundation. However, there is still no logical rationale - - or examples of abuse - - to justify the inclusion of lineal descendants beyond the level of grandchildren. 7. Goal: Modify the law to permit the "out of corpus" requirement to be met by a foreign grantee if sufficient documentation is provided showing that the full amount of the grant was spent for the specified purposes w ithin 12 months after the year the grant was made. Explanation: When making grants to some foreign charities, private foundations are required to treat them as private fou ndations. Any grant from a private foundation to another private foundation requires that the amount granted "flow through" the grantee and out as qualifying distributions that are made "out of corpus" by the end of the following year. The purpose for this rule is to prevent a foundation from avoiding the payout rule by having one private foundation give to another, who then simply adds the grant to its endowment (corpus), with charitable grantees receiving no benefit. In the foreign grant context, the grantee rarely has any endowment and totally misunderstands the concept of "out of corpus." 8. Goal: Secure passage of legislation providing a charitable deduction for non-itemizers. Explanation: Most taxpayers no longer file the long tax form that permits itemized deductions; instead they file the short form that allows only a standard deduction. From 1983 to 1986 non-itemizers were permitted to take the standard deduction plus itemize charitable contributions within certain limits, but the deduction expired January 1, 1987. * Bolded text signifies 2007 update. Page 4 �The Senate Fiscal Agency has evaluated the cost of the non-itemizer and deemed that it will cost the federal government more than it will generate in new charitable giving. As a result Senator Levin has indicated his non-support for this issue. President Bush dropped the charitable non-itemizer from h is proposed budget for 2006 - the first time since he has been President that it has not been included. When the CARE Act was added to the Pension B ill 's Conference Committee, it became evident that the non-itemizer would not survive as one of the limited charitable incentives. It was not included in the final version of the Pension Bill, signed into law by the President in August 2006. Sponsors are not being sought in 2007 for legislation to introduce the non-itemizer. 9. Goal: Support reasonable limits on the degree to which foundations and charities can lobby or otherwise influence public policy decisions and oppose unreasonable limits that adversely affect grantmaking. Explanation: Continuous monitoring is essential to oppose unreasonable and unnecessary regulatory reporting burdens on both foundations and their grantees. Independent Sector (IS), on behalf of foundations and public charity non profits, has taken the position that 50l(c)(3) and 50l(c)(4) organizations should not be included in the definition of political committees. Political committees are prohibited from raising money from corporations (including nonprofit corporations) or unions or from using contributions in excess of $5,000 from an individual to pay for electioneering activities. Political committees must also disclose names of contributors in regular reports to the Federal Election Commission (FEC), and contributions to such committees are not taxdeductible. IS makes the following points: • • • 10. Current tax law already limits the lobbying and partisan political activities of these groups. The FEC should maintain its current, clear distinction between "express advocacy'' communications (those that clearly call for a vote for or against a particular candidate or political party) and other nonpartisan communications. It should not adopt IRS standards for partisan advocacy, which were designed for a different regulatory and enforcement regime. Voter registration and get-out-the-vote activities should only be considered political expenditures ifthey are clearly tied to a candidate or party. Activities targeted to specific populations (e.g., women, African Americans, a particular neighborhood, members of a particular organization) should not be considered political "expenditures" simply because those populations may be "more likely" to vote for a particular candidate or party. Goal: Support legislation to eliminate the classification of realized gains and income, derived from leveraged real estate investments by foundations, as unrelated business taxable income. * Bolded text signifies 2007 update. Page 5 �Explanation: Foundations and nonprofit organizations are significant investors in the real estate market. However, income derived from leveraged real estate investments, owned directly or through partnerships, is currently taxed as unrelated business taxable income (UBTI). Private foundations should be treated in the same manner as educational organizations and qualified pension plans, which since 1980 have been exempt from the debt-financed property rules with respect to the acquisition of certain real property. The Council on Foundations has asked CMF to discuss this issue with Representative Levin to see if he would add it to his bill dealing with Hedge Funds discussed below. A meeting is scheduled for November 2 with the Representative's staff in Washington. 11. Goal: Permit tax-free distribution from individual retirement accounts (IRAs) for charitable purposes. Explanation: It is proposed that direct gifts from an IRA to a charitable organization would not be taxed as income to the account-holder who has attained the age of 59 ~ years of age, if the disbursement is made directly to either a qualified charity or a qualifying deferred giving plan. It is anticipated that such a law would increase contributions to many charitable organizations, including community foundations. This issue continues to receive bi-partisan support in both the House and Senate. Michigan Representative Dave Camp and both Senator Levin and Senator Stabenow played key roles in the inclusion of the IRA Charitable Rollover in the final version ofthe Pension Bill signed into law by the President in August 2006. The provision is only for 2006 and 2007 and allows individuals age 70 Yz to make contributions of up to $100,000 tax free from IRAs to charitable organizations, except donor advised funds and private foundations, in both 2006 and 2007. CMF through its supporting organization, Midwest Community Foundations' Ventures, has played a leading role in the development of the Charitable IRA Portfolio distributed on September 11, 2006 to all community foundations nationwide that meet national standards for community foundations. HR 1419 and SB 819 have now been introduced to extend the IRA C haritable Rollover beyond 2007 and remove the cap of$100,000, reduce the age to 59 1/2, and permit distributions to donor advised funds and supporting organizations. Due to: the pay go rules now in place in Congress, the initial research by the National Planned Giving Council on the use of the Rollover to date, and the ongoing investigation by the IRS into donor advised funds, members of the Michigan Congressional Delegation have advised that it is unlikely these three changes will be approved and attention in the fall of 2007 should be given to extending the IRA Charitable Rollover in its current form. 12. Goal: Avoid excessive regulations on corporate giving. Explanation: CMF supports public accountability, but not excessive regulation, which would require costly administration. *Bolded text signifies 2007 update. Page 6 �The House version of the 2002 Corporate and Accounting: Accountability and Transparency Act included three reporting provisions (all Board service by officers, directors, and significant family members; all gifts of $10,000 or more; all transactions valued at $10,000 or more) that would have a negative impact on corporate philanthropy. Working with the Council on Foundations, CMF was successful in ensuring that this provision was not included in the Senate version, the version signed into law in the summer of2002 by the President. 13. Goal: Monitor the impact of estate tax legislation passed in 2001 on creation of new foundations and gifts to existing foundations and promote reinstatement of the federal state estate tax credit. Explanation: The "Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001" passed by the Congress and signed into law by the President in June 2001, phases out the Estate Tax between 2002 and 2010. Full repeal however is only in effect for the year 2010. The estate tax then reverts, unless new legislation is passed, to the 2000 tax code status. President Bush has indicated that it is a priority to make repeal of the estate tax permanent. It is estimated by the Congressional Budget Office in a July 2004 Report titles Charitable Bequests and the Repeal ofthe Estate Ta.x, that full repeal of the estate tax would annually cost the nonprofit sector $ 17 billion in charitable bequests. Independent Sector (IS) supports a compromise of an exemption rate of $3.5 million for an individual and a 35% tax rate. At this rate it is bel ieved that nearly all family farms and family-owned businesses would be exempt from the estate tax. The estate tax would only apply to 0.3 percent of Americans as opposed to only 2 percent of estates today. The Congressional Budget Office further estimates in a July 2005 Report titled Effects of the Federal Estate Tax on Farms and Small Businesses, that the IS position would decrease charitable giving by about 3 percent or $7.4 billion as opposed to $17 billion with total repeal. This goal is now tied to Goal 9 under State Legislative Issues - opposing reinstatement of a state inheritance tax. Michigan was receiving funds from the federal state estate tax credit that more than offset repeal of the state inheritance tax in 1993- a CMF Goal. The federal credit has now been phased out and a bill has been introduced to reinstate a State Inheritance Tax. This will encourage residents to again transfer their place of residency to homes in Florida and other states. While it is the position ofCMF to not support or oppose legislation that has a broad impact beyond the charitable field, it is necessary to monitor the impact on philanthropy of this legislation and future changes that might be made in the estate tax. 14. Goal: Support efforts to incorporate philanthropy as an objective of legislation providing financial resources to character education and other K-12 educational initiatives. * Bolded text sig nifies 2007 update. Page 7 �Explanation: CMF was successful through the Learning to Give initiative in having the word "giving" added to the definition of character education in the 2002 Education Bill signed by President Bush. Learning to Give, now through its new affiliation with The League, is assisting when appropriate national partners, such as the Corporation for National and Community Service, in efforts to ensure that giving is incorporated in new character education programs and other appropriate federal initiatives. 15. Goal: Support legislation requiring a five percent payout for Donor Advised Funds. Explanation: In 2005 and 2006, staff of the Senate Finance Committee advocated for a required payout for Donor Advised Funds, defined simply as Funds at public charities that primarily make grants to charitable beneficiaries pursuant to advice provided by the donor. This proposed required payout is caused by concerns of members of Congress that some Donor Advised Funds administered by organizations such as the Fidelity Gift Fund never make a charitable distribution and that university and college endowment funds make less than a five percent payout while the cost of higher education continues to escalate for students. Because the five percent payout is recommended by both Michigan and national standards for community foundations, CMF supports such legislation. The National Panel convened by IS at the request of the Senate Finance Committee has recommended this payout requirement for Donor Advised Funds in its final Report presented on June 22, 2005 to Senator Grass ley, Chair of the Senate Finance Committee. A payout for Donor Advised Funds will be considered by the Department of Treasury in its 2007 study of Donor Advised Funds required in the Charitable Reform Section of HR 4 - the Pension Bill, signed into law in August 2006. 16. Goal: Support efforts to make the IRS forn1s 990 and 990PF more useful to the public, foundations, charities and regulators as prime sources of reliable information on the nonprofit sector. Explanation: Recent efforts by the Foundation Center, National Center on Charitable Statistics, and Council on Foundations to present accurate data to Congress on the administrative costs of operating a private foundation, indicate that the existing 990PF and companion 990 Form are inadequate in their current formats. A review of 30 990PF returns by CMF staff in January 2004 confirmed the problems filers are having with the current forn1s. The 2005 Report to the Senate Finance Committee by the National Panel convened by Independent Sector recommends that the Internal Revenue Service revise these forms. Dave Lindberg, CMF Vice President for Finance, is participating in a 990 Reform Advisory Committee convened by Independent Sector (IS), that is working with the IRS on recommended changes for a new Form 990 and 990PF. CMF filed a letter with the IRS in advance of the September 14 deadline supporting the recommendations of COF and IS, especially that implementation of the new 990 Form be delayed until the 2009 fiscal year to give nonprofits the opportunity to be ready to use it. * Bolded text signifies 2007 update. Page 8 �17. Goal: Support efforts to limit tax shelters in which charities receive little or no benefit. Explanation: The Senate Finance Committee has identified through Hearings held in 2004 and 2005, examples of tax shelters providing little benefit to charity. As a result Senator Grassley introduced S 993 in 2005 to place excise taxes on insurance contracts in which certain exempt organizations may hold an interest. This Bill received support from the Council on Foundations, Independent Sector and CMF. The issue of insurance contracts has been included in the Reform Provisions of HR 4 passed in 2006. 18. Goal: Support legislation that allows tax-exempt entities to invest in securities and commodities that involve indebtedness without being subject to unrelated business income tax. Explanation: Congressman Sander Levin has introduced H.R. 3501 to exempt taxexempt entities from Unrelated Business Income Tax (UBIT) when investing in securities that involve debt. The original intent of UBIT was to prevent nonprofits from competing against for-profit entities in a business that is not substantially related to its exempt purpose. Over the last twenty years, foundations and universities have invested in hedge funds and other alternative investments to increase their investment returns and reduce the volatility of their investment portfolio. Many times these investments involve leverage (debt) that would subject the foundation to UBIT but based on Private Letter Rulings from the IRS, foundations are able invest in this area through offshore corporations as limited partners and avoid UBIT. The key issue is tax-exempt institutions should not be taxed on passive leveraged investments. V. STATE LEGISLATIVE ISSUES I. Goal: Monitor and support the continued granting of property tax exemption by local units of government to foundations. Explanation: CMF, working with partners such as the Michigan Nonprofit Association, will closely monitor cases that could adversely impact foundations where nonprofit organizations are being forced by local tax authorities to appeal their tax exemption status to the State Tax Tribunal, and if needed, consider filing letters of support with the Tax Tribunal. 2. Goal: Support legislation encouraging a tax-deduction for charitable contributions from individuals. Explanation: Other states have found that a tax deduction mirroring the federal tax code does motivate additional gifts by individuals to charities. While the introduction of legislation in tough economic times is unlikely, the Michigan Nonprofit Association continues to identify this as a legislative priority. * Bolded text signifies 2007 update. Page 9 �3. Goal: Monitor and report to the state on the use of tobacco settlement funds distributed to certified community foundations in 2001-2003 for health youth and healthy senior purposes. Explanation: Michigan's share of the national tobacco settlement ($206 billion over the next 26 years) between 46 states, five commonwealths and territories and the District of Columbia with five tobacco companies, representing 97.5% ofthe industry, is $8.3 billion. The master settlement agreement does not specify how states may spend their settlement payments. Between 2001 and 2003 CMF distributed more that $20 million of interest earned on the tobacco settlement funds not used for the Merit Scholarship Program and eannarked annually through the Department of Career Development budget to certified community foundations for both pass through grantmaking and to endow Healthy Youth and Healthy Senior Funds. Because of the State's financial budget problems, no funds were appropriated for this effort in 2004 and 2005. The legislature passed legislation in 2006 with the Governor's support to securitize a major portion of the tobacco settlement to create the 21 st Century Jobs Fund. The balance of the tobacco settlement allocation was securitized by the state in 2007 to balance the budget. 4. Goal: Support legislation to simplify the Charitable Solicitations Act- SB 507. Explanation: Community foundations are required, as well as other charitable nonprofits, to file for an annual solicitation license. The licensing, enforcement, and appeal processes are not considered user friendly by nonprofits and do not reflect the changing cost in fundraising. The Michigan Nonprofit Association is leading the effort on this issue. Legislation proposed by Senator George is still being developed. 5. Goal: To monitor administration of the pennanent community fou ndation tax credits for individuals, families and businesses and their relationship to current and proposed tax credits. Explanation: As a result of term limits CMF staff continually work with legislators to explain the tax credit and the role of community foundations. There is an on-going effort by other nonprofit sector groups such as hospitals, schools and community development corporations to obtain targeted tax credits without acknowledgement of the potential to meet their needs through the existing community foundation tax credit. In addition, CMF staff assists Treasury Department staff to insure that the re-certification process is working with certified community foundations that cover all 83 counties. With the decision by the Legislature to eliminate the Single Business Tax (SBT) at the end of2007, the community foundation tax credit in the SBT w ill be eliminated as well. The credit has been included in the new Michigan Business Tax (MBT) that takes effect 2008. A new credit for K-12 education foundations has been added to the section of the MBT covering the community foundations tax credit. Efforts are * Bolded text sig nifies 2007 update. Page 10 �underway to separate this new credit from the community foundation tax credit as part of additional legislation on the MBT. 6. Goal: To assist the Charitable Trust Section ofthe Attorney General's office, an important source of information about charitable giving and the nonprofit sector in Michigan. Explanation: CMF has always worked with the Charitable Trust Section of the Office of the Attorney General. With the election of Attorney General Cox in 2004, CMF and the Michigan Nonprofit Association proposed a more formal relationship to the Attorney General which he approved. As a result, the Nonprofit Council to the Charitable Trust Section, led by his Deputy Attorney General Carol Isaacs, was created. CMF has three representatives on the Council, which is considered a national model and is now being replicated by other Attorneys General. The Committee meets three times a year and assists the Section on issues related to charitable giving and charities. In addition, the staff leader of the Section attends the CMF Annual Conference. This relationship is vital because there are recent cases in which state attorneys general have initiated litigation against foundations for excess compensation and self dealing abuses and examples of unfavorable state legislation initiated by attorneys general 7. Goal: To support revisions to the Nonprofit Corporation Act Explanation: There have been no major amendments to the Act since it was adopted in 1982. Suggested changes to the Act include: • To allow nonprofits to have members vote by mail, fax or email, • To increase the number of required board members from one to three (a recommendation of The National Panel's Final Report to the Senate Finance Committee), • To provide the same liability protection to those serving on nonprofit boards as to those serving on the board of a business corporation, and • To require all personal loans to employees, board members and volunteers be reviewed by the state. The State Bar Association is leading the redrafting process for this bill introduced. 8. Goal: To provide educational resources to members of the State legislature and the Office of the Attorney General on the issue of donor intent. Explanation: As a result of an investigation into the Ford Foundation by the Attorney General, HB 6351 was introduced by Representatives Dillon and Huizenga in June 2006. The purpose of the bill is to redefined donor intent as a pattern of grantmaking in the first three years of a foundation 's existence and the specification of a defined place, like the state of Michigan, in the founding documents. The bill was not considered by a committee and the founding sponsor Representative Dillon indicated that he would not support his bill. As a result of meeting with the two Representatives, CMF had two documents prepared, by the law firm Miller, Canfield, Paddock and Stone PLC during the summer of 2006 * Bolded text sig nifies 2007 update. Page II �which were delivered to them and Deputy Attorney General Isaacs on September 7, 2006. The first document is a review of existing laws that confirm the Attorney General does not need new legislation to oversee donor intent with regard to private foundations. The second document provides an introduction to donor intent from the perspective of a policy maker. On September 19, 2006 HB 6535 the Charitable Foundations Accountability Act was introduced by Representative Huizenga without the support of Representative Dillon. CMF indicated its opposition to this bill and provided a Media Response Statement to members should the media ask about it. Representative Huizenga indicated that this Bill would not advance and was only introduced at the request of the Attorney General. There have been no further efforts in 2007 by the Legislature to deal w ith the issue of Donor Intent. 9. Goal: To oppose reinstatement of a State Inheritance Tax. Explanation: HB4377 the Michigan Estate tax act was introduced in March 2007 by Representative Paul Condino as part of a strategy to balance the states structural fiscal crisis. The legislative leadership and governor have indicated that they will not support this bill because of the impact it will have on families of wealth transferring their residency to their second homes in places like Florida. 10. Goal: To support legislation to replace the Uniform Management of Institutional Funds Act (UMIFA) with the Uniform Prudent Management oflnstitutional Funds Act (UPMIFA), including language that UPMIFA does not affect a community foundation's ability to exercise its variance power. Explanation: Senate Bills 392 & 393 have been introduced to replace UMIFA, which governs how foundations manage their investments with UPMIFA as recommended by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State Laws. The Council of the Probate and Estate Planning Section of the Michigan State Bar discussed this legislation at their April 2007 meeting and suggested two changes to the proposed legislation. a. Make it clear that this does not affect community foundations in trust form which are governed under other laws. b. This should not affect the community foundation 's ability to exercise variance power. The key differences from UMIFA, include: • Elimination of " historic dollar value" rule • Gives primary consideration to donor intent • Notify Attorney General if plan to exercise variance power (see revision noted above). • Investments should be diversified. 11. Goal: Amend the State Limited Liability Company Act to create a "Low-profit Limited Liability Company" (L3C). The purpose of this new investment vehicle * Bolded text sig nifies 2007 update. Page 12 �would be to generate modest profit while carrying on a business that serves a charitable purpose. Explanation: The L3C is a new concept: a special type of limited liability company created to enhance the flow of philanthropic investments and economic development activities such as creating jobs in economically depressed areas or supporting community revitalization. Although some states have considered adopting this legislation, Michigan may be the first. In many cases before a private foundation can undertake a program-related investment, it must engage in a complicated analysis which often includes obtaining a private letter ruling from the IRS at considerable time and expense. The proposed state legislation would closely track the Internal Revenue Code requirements for a private foundation to make a program-related investment. Once the state legislation enacted, the Council on Foundations believes it can approach the IRS and/or Congress to obtain appropriate federal recognition. The amendment to the LLC statute would require an L3C to engage only in business activities that significantly further a charitable purpose and that have only the incidental goal of producing income or capital appreciation. Given those restrictions, foundations could take an equity interest in or make grants or loans to L3Cs and have the distributions included in the 5'% minimum distribution requirement. This legislation would also benefit community foundations and other public charities engaged in economic development by permitting them to invest in a business that is structured primarily to accomplish a charitable goal. The L3C has been adopted as a priority by the COF Public Policy Committee. * Bolded text signifies 2007 update.

Advancing giving. October 15, 2007 Memo to: Diana Sieger, Chairperson, and Members of the Board of Trustees From: Rachel Mraz, CMF Trustee and Investment Committee Member and David R. Lindberg, Vice President Finance & Administration Re: June 30, 2007, Investment Report The following Resolution is presented fo r consideration: RESOLVED that the June 30,2007, Investment Report be accepted, as recommended by the CMF Investment Committee. On a quarterly basis, the combined Investment Committee for the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF), Midwest Community Foundations' Ventures (MCFV), Learning to Give (LTG) and the Michigan AIDS Fund (MAF), meet to review the investment performance for the operating and permanent endowment funds. New Business On September 27, 2007, the Investment Committee met to review and approve the enclosed reports. Since the May 22, 2007, CMF Board meeting the Investment Committee has addressed the follow items: • • • • Invested 25% of the CMF Endowment Pool in the TIFF Multi-Asset Fund (See asset allocation below). Committed $500,000 to the Commonfund Capital Partners IV fund which focu ses on U.S. & International Private Equity, Global Venture Capital and Natural Resources. Committed $500,000 to the Commonfund Capital Private Equity Partners VII fund, a U.S. focused, multi-manger private equity fund. Is in the process of looking for alternative REIT fund investments. TIFF Multi-Asset Fund was selected as a way to access alternative investments that would not be available to a fund the size of the CMF Endowment Pool. This fund has a strong performance track record over the last ten years. Cate!!orv Stocks- U.S. & International Fixed Income Real Estate Absolute Return Commodities Allocation 58.6% 17.5% .7% 19.4% 3.8% �Investment Report Page 2 With the addition of the TIFF and Commonfund products, the CMF Endowment Pool now has a standard allocation pool and an alternative pool. The standard allocation pool is rebalanced on a quarterly basis back to the targeted asset allocation noted in the attached report. The combined allocation of the standard and alternative allocation pools will be monitored on a quarterly basis by the Investment Committee with adjustments between the two pools being made as the committee deems appropriate. The combined investment return for the CMF Standard and Alternative Pools will be calculated as the various periods become available. The enclosed Investment Report is presented in two sections. Investment Performance Report & Asset Allocation The benchmark is based on the targeted asset allocation noted in the attached report using the following return information: Asset Class S&P 500 S&P 400 S&P 600 EAFE FTSE NAREIT Equity Index Lehman Bros . Aggregate Allocation 37.0% 9.0% 6.0% 13.0% 5.0% 30.0% Investment Performance Comparison Report In addition to the Cambridge & Associates, Inc. pool of colleges, universities, and foundations, the committee has recently added the TIFF Multi-Asset fund for comparative purposes. The TIFF product is unique in the fact that it offers smaller foundations access to alternative investment products which have enhanced returns over the last several years. The reason this report lags the CMF Investment Report by one quarter is due to the time it takes Cambridge to collect the results from the pool participants.

We believe that diversifying perspectives, talent and experience can help ensure philanthropy's continued leadership i n a rapidly changing society. Therefore, building on philanthropy's best traditions and aspirations, we're working together to develop a new, field-wide agenda for diversity. Launched as a two-year initiative (2007-2009), this project seeks to expand diversity, equity and inclusion in board and staff representation, grant making and contracting. Our Priorities Following are the core activities and strategies that we seek to promote: o o o Voluntary peer-support o Encouraging collaboration between field-wide leaders to realize the benefits of a more diverse sector. Transparent and actionable data o Partnering with supporting organizations to track and report field-wide diversity performance, and share new research and knowledge. Tools, best practices and talent o Creating a long-term resource for accessing learning models, best practices and talent banks of diverse board and staff candidates, advisors and contractors.

By building on our diverse assets, organized philanthropy can be the architect for strategic investments that promote the common good." Steve Gunderson President Council on Foundations " Investing in diversity is one of the most important ways to increase organized philanthropy' s impacts. The preponderance of research shows that when diverse communities own efforts to create change, the outcomes always improve." Peter H. Pennekamp Executive Director Humboldt Area Foundation " When philanthropic institutions embrace the diversity that increasingly defines our civic culture, they expand their access to new ideas, talents and resources that in turn enhance their reach and results." Gary D. Nelson President Healthcare Georgia Foundation " Organized philanthropy achieves its highest purposes and its most significant work when it is guided by openness, inclusiveness, accessibility, ethical conduct and sensitivity to society's growing diversity." Valerie S. Lies President Donors Forum of Chicago " By recognizing the inherent relationship between diversity and institutional effectiveness, foundations of all kinds can honor and advance private philanthropy' s most exciting inclinations and potential."

May 14,2007 Memo to: Members of the Board of Trustees From: Diana Sieger, Chairperson Rob Collier, President Re: Update on Succession Policy reviewed at M arch Board Meeting At the March Board Meeting you approved the Succession Policy in concept and asked that it be further adjusted by Barbara Rapaport to refl ect the flexibility of not using a search firm for a full search process. The document has been changed with the additions highlighted in Bold in the section of the resolution on page two dealing with proposed steps. Therefore, the following Resolution is presented for your approval: RESOLVED that a Succession Policy for permanently titling the position of President of the Council of Foundations include the following steps, recognizing that an absence of the President due to health reasons would be impacted b y the short and long term disability policies of the organization. Within three working days of the loss of the President- by resignation, dismissal or death : • The Executive Committee of the Board shall meet by conference call, with all Trustees invited to participate, to select the Vice President Finance and Administration as Interim President, and identify two current or former members of the Board to lead a Search Committee. • The Chairperson of the Board will meet with the Vice President Finance and Administration and staff to inform them of the Interim President's appointment and the intent to fonn a Search Committee co-chaired by two current or fom1er members of the Board of Trustees. • The Chairperson will contact the candidates identified to lead the Search Committee and confinn their willingness to serve. • The Chairperson and the Vice President Finance and Administration will then issue a statement to the membership and public on the Interim President's appointment and creation of the Search Committee. Within two weeks of the loss of the President: • The Interim President shall present for the Executive Committee's approval his/her critical work priorities and personnel issues to assure a seamless transition with minimum disruption of services in an interim period that would last a projected six to eight months. �Succession Policy Update May 2007 Page 2 • The Executive Committee shall meet to approve the revised job description for the Interim President and meet with the Co-Chairs of the Search Committee to approve: the membership of the Search Committee, an updated job description for the position of President and a budget for retaining external consulting services and/or a Search firm. Within one month of the loss of the President: • The Search Committee shall convene and determine what level of external consulting services, if any, are needed and will develop a specific timeline for completion of Search Committee activities. If the Search Committee determines that the services of a Search firm are needed to help identify and pre-screen candidates, then the Committee will seek at least two proposals from qualified Search firms. Within two months of the loss of the President: • The Search Committee shall interview and retain either an External Consultant and/or a Search firm if needed. If potential candidates are to be identified with the assistance of a Search firm, the opening for the permanent position of President will be posted. • The External Consultant and/or Search firm shall meet monthly by phone or in person with the Search Committee and provide written progress updates to the Chairperson and Board ofTrustees with the goal of appointing a new President by the end of month six. If a Search firm is engaged to assist with this process, it will provide the Search Committee a recommended slate of at least three candidates to interview for consideration by the Board of Trustees. It is recognized that up to two additional months or an appropriate time may be needed to allow the new President to transition to CMF. RESOLVED further that should the current President of CMF be incapacitated in some way and unable to fulfill his responsibilities for a period of up to one year, the Vice President Finance and Administration, would be appointed as Interim President by the Chairperson and would work with the Executive Committee to assure a seamless transition and minimum disruption during the absence of the President. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Advancing giving. May 14,2007 To : Diana Sieger, Chairperson and Members of the Board ofTrustees From: Libby Maynard, Co-Chair Government Relations Committee Rob Collier, President Re: Position on SB 392 & SB 393 Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act The following Resolution is presented for your consideration and action. RESOLVED that Senate Bills 392 & 393 on the Uniform Prudent Management oflnstitutional Funds Act (UPMIFA) be supported, provided that language is added indicating that the Act will have no impact on the variance power of community foundations and will have no effect on charitable trusts that are already covered by Michigan Probate Law. Background The addition of the language noted in the Resolution comes from the Probate and Trusts Section of the State Bar, chaired by Robin Ferriby, Vice President of the Community Foundation of Southeast Michigan. The Section has voted to support the two bills with the changes noted below. SB 393 is a technical citations bill that amends citations in the nonprofit corporation act. Clarification that UPMIFA does not apply to charitable trusts "Sec. 11. This Act applies solely to matters included within the meaning of the terms "institution", "institutional fund" and "person" as defined in this Act and no part of this Act shall apply to, or affect, the validity, construction, interpretation, effect, administration or management of any other trust, estate or applicable governing instrument." Clarification that a community foundation exercising its variance power does not r equire approval of the Michigan Attorney General "(5) If the tenns of a gift instrument confer a power on the institution to release or modify a restriction on the management or investment of an institutional fund or the particular charitable purpose or restriction on the use of the institutional fu nd, the institution shall have the power to so modify or tem1inate that restriction and the other provisions of this Section shall not apply to that release or modification. A release or modification shall not allow a fund to be used for a purpose other than a charitable purpose of the institution." At its annual meeting in July 2006, the National Conference of Commissioners on Unifonn State Laws (NCCUSL) approved the Uniform Prudent Management oflnstitutional Funds Act (UPMIFA) and recommended it for enactment by the legislatures of the various states. UPMIFA is designed to replace the existing U nifonn Management oflnstitutional Funds Act (UMIFA), which was approved by NCCUSL in 1972 and has since been enacted in 47 states. UMIFA was a pioneering statute, providing uniform and fundamental rules for the investment of funds held by charitable institutions and the expenditure of funds donated as "endowments" to those institutions. Those rules supported two general �UPMIFA Memo May 14,2007 Page 2 principles: 1) that assets would be invested prudently in diversified investments that sought growth as well as income, and 2) that appreciation of assets could prudently be spent for the purposes of any endowment fund held by a charitable institution. These two principles have been vital to asset management for endowments since UMIF A became the law of the land in nearly all U.S. jurisdictions. UPMIFA continues these fundamental principles as a needed upgrade ofUMIFA. Both investment in assets and expenditure for charitable purposes have grown exponentially in the 35 years since UMIF A was drafted; asset management theory and practice have also advanced. UPMIFA, as an up-date and successor to UMIFA, establishes an even sounder and more unified basis for charitable fund management than UMIFA has done. INVESTMENT In 1972, UMIF A represented a revolutionary advance over prevailing practices which imposed upon endowments the limited investment opportunities available for managing trust assets- even endowments not organized as trusts. UPMIFA incorporates a more exact set of rules for investing in a prudent manner. It requires investment "in good faith and with the care an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would exercise under similar circumstances." It requires prudence in incurring investment costs, authorizing "only costs that are appropriate and reasonable." Factors to be considered in investing are expanded to include, for example, the effects of inflation. UPMIF A emphasizes that investment decisions must be made in relation to the overall resources of the institution and its charitable purposes. No investment decision may be made in isolation, but must be made in light of the fund's entire portfolio, and as a part of an investment strategy "having risk and return objectives reasonably suited to the fund and to the institution." A charitable institution must diversify assets as an affirmative obligation unless "special circumstances" dictate otherwise. Assets must be reviewed within a reasonable time after they come into the possession of the institution in order to conform them to the investment strategy and objectives of the fund. Investment experts, whether inhouse or hired for the purpose, are held to a standard of care consistent with that expertise. UMIFA initiated the era of modem portfolio management for charitable institutions. UPMIFA provides the standards and guidelines that subsequent experience tells us are the most appropriate for the purpose. Charitable institutions will have more precise standards to guide them. Courts will have more precise standards with which to measure prudence in the event of a challenge. The result should be more money for programs supported by charitable funds, including endowments. EXPENDITURE UPMIFA builds upon UMIFA's rule on appreciation, but it eliminates the concept of"historic dollar value." UPMIFA, instead, provides better guidance on prudence and makes the need for a floor on spending unnecessary. UPMIF A states that the institution "may appropriate for expenditure or accumulate so much of an endowment fund as the institution detennines to be prudent for the uses, benefits, purposes and duration for which the endowment fund is established." Seven criteria guide the institution in its yearly expenditure decisions: "1) duration and preservation of the endowment fund; 2) the purposes of the institution and the endowment fund; 3) general economic conditions; 4) effect of inflation or deflation; 5) the expected total return from income and the appreciation of investments; 6) other resources of the institution; and, 7) the investment policy of the institution." These standards 2 �UPMIFA Memo May 14,2007 Page 3 mirror the standards that apply to investment decision-making, thus unifying both investment and expenditure decisions more concretely. RELEASE OR MODIFICATION OF RESTRICTIONS UPMIF A recognizes and protects donor intent more broadly than UMIF A did, in part by providing a more comprehensive treatment of the modification of restrictions on charitable funds. Sometimes a restriction imposed by a donor becomes impracticable or wasteful or may impair the management of a fund. The donor may consent to release the restriction, if the donor is still alive and able to do so, but if the donor is not available the charity can ask for court approval of a modification of the restriction. The trust law doctrines of cy pres (modifying a purpose restriction) and deviation (modifying a management restriction) probably already apply to charitable fund s held by nonprofit corporations. UPMIFA makes this clear. 3 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Advancing giving. May 14,2007 To: Diana Sieger, Chairperson, and Members of the Board of Trustees From: Dave Egner, Co-Chair, Public Policy Committee Rachel Dunne, 2006-2007 Public Policy Fellow Re: Public Policy Report- Action Requested Since the March Board Meeting, the Public Policy Committee met on April 17,2007. The Agenda included: updates on developments among the CMF affinity groups, consideration of the 2-1-1 resolution referred to the committee at the March Board meeting, and discussion of the state budget crisis with special guests Tom Clay from the Citizens Research Council and Sharon Parks from the Michigan League for Human Services. The Committee also thanked Rachel Dunne for her year of service as the Public Policy Fellow and welcomed our new Public Policy Fellow, Jaclyn Miel-Uken, a 2007 graduate of the Ford School of Public Policy at the University of Michigan, whose resume follows this memo. We look forward to having you meet Jaclyn at the May Board Meeting - her second day on the job. After extensive discussion, the Committee refers the following two resolutions to the Board of Trustees for your consideration. Both resolutions were approved by the Committee during the April 17 meeting. RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations support 2-1-1 as an important resource for Michigan residents and therefore support federal legislation S. 211 and H.R. 211 that would provide federal funds to assist states in providing statewide coverage. Background The Committee discussed the demonstrated value in Michigan of 2-1-1 as both a planning and collaboration tool. With 70% of the residents currently served due to start up funds provided primarily by foundations and individual gifts, there was consensus that 2-1-1 cannot be sustained in Michigan without the financial partnership of state government, particularly with potential cost savings for service delivery. The Committee also acknowledged that CMF is co-hosting with the Michigan Association of United Ways in late April a 2-1-1 briefing for 30 grantmakers in the three regions of the State currently not covered: the Southwest, Thumb area, and Northern Lower Peninsula. The motion to support federal legislation for 2-1-1 passed with the understanding that the committee also communicate the need for strong support for public investment by the state in 2-1-1. �Public Policy Report May 2007 Page 2 RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundation urges swift action to ensure sufficient state and federal revenue bases to avoid further budget reductions and to reinvest in arts and culture, pre-k- 12 education, private and public higher education, environment and natural resources, health and human services, and to support reasonable growth over time. Background After comments from Tom Clay of the Citizen's Research Council and Sharon Parks of the Michigan League for Human Services, the committee had an active discussion about the current state budget crisis and whether a position should be taken by CMF. There was consensus that the state budget crisis is having a negative impact on the grantees of many of CMF members and thus will impact the ability of grantmakers to fulfill their respective missions. Language that has been approved by the Michigan Nonprofit Association's board was shared and approved for recommendation to the CMF Board. There was strong concern voiced that the resolution also include the issue of dealing with structural legacy costs, such as pensions and health care. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations oppose reintroduction of a Michigan Inheritance Tax, which will encourage Michigan residents to move their primary residence out of state, and encourage reintroduction of the pick up tax as part of the federal estate tax that would place Michigan on an equalleve1 as other states. The Board adjourned for lunch at 12: 10 p.m. and reconvened the meeting at 1:00 p.m. Foundation Liaison, Karen Aldridge-Eason, noted the Governor participated on a quick conference call with Funders Concerned about Michigan's Economy in January and has requested a follow-up meeting in May.
