Martin Taylor, Chair and Members of the Board of Trustees Council ofMichigan Foundations Re: Position on January 27,2005 Report from the Joint Committee on Taxation on Options to Improve Tax Compliance and Reform Expenditures for Exempt Organizations Section VIII of the Joint Committee on Taxation Report issued January 27, 2005 includes 12 recommendations for options to improve tax compliance of exempt organizations. The Council of Michigan Foundations is joining our national partners in a thorough review of these recommendations. However, the Board of Trustees passed a resolution at its meeting of March 3, 2005 to oppose Options A, F, G and H as described below. Option A. Require Five-Year Review of Exempt Status of Public Charities and Private Foundations. This option requires that every five (5) years §501(c) (3) organizations (except Houses of Worship), must file with the Secretary information on whether it continues to be organized and operated exclusively for exempt purposes. This filing must be done electronically and made publicly available. Failure to file would result in loss of tax-exempt status. Raises: Less than $50 million Summary of Rationale for Opposition 1. The infonnation in a five year review is already provided in the annual 990 and 990PF filing. 2. This would require additional expense by nonprofits and foundations to complete the reporting requirement - thus taking limited funds away from their intended charitable uses. 3. The IRS does not have the capacity to fulfill its current oversight responsibilities of Exempt Organizations. The proposed $50 million in revenue would be consumed by the added administrative costs Option F. Modify Charitable Deduction for Contributions of Conservation and Facade Easements. This option would eliminate the charitable contribution deduction with respect to far;:ade and conservation easements relating to personal residence properties, substantially reduces the deduction for all other qualified conservation contributions, and imposes new standards on appraisals and appraisers regarding the valuation of such contributions. Raises: $1 billion Summary of Rationale for Opposition 1. The conservation easement has played a major role in recent land preservation projects in Metro Detroit, West Michigan, Northern Lower Michigan and the Upper Peninsula. 2. The law currently provides for adequate valuation requirements. �3. The proposed changes would adversely impact historic preservation efforts on main street projects statewide as well as the abilities of the land conservancies to keep preserved property in private ownership. Option G. Limit Charitable Deduction for Contributions of Clothing and Household Items. This option would limit the amount that taxpayers may deduct for contributions of clothing and household items to $500. Raises: $1.9 billion Summary of Rationale for Opposition 1. Many donors will be discouraged from making the effort to donate to charitable re-sale operations, and land fills will be the ultimate beneficiaries. 2. Appraisal requirements for donations valued in excess of $5,000 would be more effective in curbing the problem of excessive valuations by donors. 3. The sustainability of many faith-base charitable organizations would be adversely impacted by this option. Option H. Reform Rules for Charitable Contributions of Property. This proposal contains various options and concepts to limit deductions on donations of property, generally to the lesser of basis or fair market value. They do not apply to publicly traded securities and certain other property already addressed in previous legislation, i.e., intellectual property and vehicles. Suggestions for enhanced appraiser accountability, limiting the deduction to the disposition amount, and eliminating deductions for property altogether are also included. Raises: $2.5 billion Summary of Rationale for Opposition 1. The number of gifts of real estate to community foundation throughout Michigan continues to grow as part of the intergenerational transfer of wealth now underway. 2. Real estate is the largest asset classification and thus gifts should be encouraged with appropriate requirements on independent appraisals. 3. At a time when government suppott is being reduced for needed local programs and services, local communities need access to major sources of charitable gifts - real estate being a key. �Finance Committee Democratic Staff Summary of Joint Committee on Taxation Report on Options to Improve Tax Compliance and Reform Expenditures January 27, 2005 (Costs are over 10-year window) VIII. EXEMPT ORGANIZATIONS A. Require Five-Year Review of Exempt Status of Public Charities and Private Foundations and Annual Notice by Organizations Not Required to File Information Returns (sec. 508). The proposal require that every five (5) years §50l (c)(3) organizations (except Houses of Worship), must file with the Secretary information on whether it continues to be organized and operated exclusively for exempt purposes. This filing must be done electronically and made publicly available. Failure to file would result in loss of tax-exempt status. Raises: Less than $50 million B. Impose Termination Tax on Conversions of Assets of Charities (sec. 501,507, 4941, and 4958). The proposal applies to public charities and to private foundations, and thus eliminates the present- law aggregate tax benefit limit contained in §507. In the case of private foundations, the proposed tennination tax applies to voluntary or involuntary tenninations, as well as to conversion liquidation transactions. The proposed termination tax also applies to a public charity if there have been either willful repeated acts or failures to act that give rise to liability for Chapter 42 taxes, which includes§§ 4955 and 4958. In order to assure that fair consideration is paid in conversion transactions, the proposal extends the §4958 excess benefit transaction tax rules (in case of public charity) or §4941 self-dealing rules (in case of a private foundation) to an acquirer of the charity's assets in a conversion or liquidation transaction, if persons who are disqualified persons of the charitable organization are in a position to exercise substantial influence over the affairs of the acquirer at the time of or after the transaction. No Revenue Effect C. Tax Involvement by Exempt Organizations in Tax-Shelter Transactions (sees. 6011 and 6707A). The proposal requires disclosure by tax exempt entities (often accommodating parties) to the IRS of participation in a "prohibited tax shelter transaction" and disclosure of other known parties if it is a reportable transaction. Prohibited transactions include only certain reportable transactions. New penalties at both the entity level and the entity manager level are included in the proposal, and the deductibility of contributions to the entity may be suspended for one year. Existing disclosure penalties also apply. Raises: $500 million D. Reform Intermediate Sanctions and Extend Certain Reforms to Private Foundations (sees. 4941 and 4958). Proposal eliminates rebuttable presumption and establishes due diligence procedures that apply to public charities and private foundations. If an initial tax is imposed on a disqualified person under the intermediate sanctions rules or on a self-dealer under the self-dealing rules, the organization is subject to an excise tax equal to 10% of the excess benefit in the case of a public charity or a social welfare organization, or 2.5% of the amount involved in the case of a private foundation. Raises: $200 million �E. Increase the Amount of Excise Taxes Imposed on Public Charities, Social Welfare Organizations, and Private Foundations (sees. 4941,4942, 4943, 4944, 4945, and 4958). For acts of self-dealing other than the payment of compensation by a private foundation to a disqualified person, the initial tax on the self dealer goes from 5% to l 0% of the amount involved. For acts of self-dea ling regarding the payment of compensation by a private foundation to a disqualified person, the initial tax on the self-dealer goes from 5% to 25% of amount involved with 15% of which is subject to abatement. It increases the initial tax on foundation managers from 2.5% to 5% of the amount involved and increases the dollar limitation on the amount of the initial and additional taxes on foundation managers per act of self-dealing from $10,000 per act to $20,000 per act, and doubles the dollar limitation on organization managers of public charities and social welfare organizations for participation in excess benefit transactions from $10,000per transaction to $20,000 per transaction. Raises: Less than $50 million F. Modify Charitable Deduction for Contributions of Conservation and Fa~ade Easements (sec. 170). The proposal eliminates the charitable contribution deduction with respect to far;ade and conservation easements relating to personal residence properties, substantially reduces the deduction fo r all other qualified conservation contributions, and imposes new standards on appraisals and appraisers regarding the valuation of such contributions. Raises: $1 billion G. Limit Charitable Deduction for Contributions of Clothing and Household Items (sec. 170). The proposal limits the amount that taxpayers may deduct for contributions of clothing and household items to $500. Raises: $ 1.9 billion H. Reform Rules for Charitable Contributions of Property (sec. 170). Option One: This proposal contains various options and concepts to limit deductions on donations of property, generally to the lesser of basis or fair market value. They do not apply to publicly traded securities and certain other property already addressed in previous legislation, i.e., intellectual property and vehicles. Suggestions for enhanced appraiser accountability, limiting the deduction to the disposition amount, and eliminating deductions for property altogether are also included. Raises: $2.5 billion I. Require Public Disclosure of Form 990-T and Related Certification Requirements (sees. 6104 and 6685). The proposal extends the present- law public inspection and disclosure requirements and penalties applicable to the Form 990 to an organization 's Form 990-T. Organizations that normally have annual total gross revenues or gross assets of at least $10 million must include with its Forms 990 and 990T filings a certification by an independent auditor or by an independent counsel. Raises: Less than $50 million J. Expand the Base of the Tax on Private Foundation Net Investment Income. Proposal amends the definition of gross investment income to include income from notional principal contracts, annuities, and other substantially similar income from ordinary and routine investments. Carrybacks of losses from sales or other dispositions of property are not included. Raises: $200 million �K. Limit Tax-Exempt Status of Fraternal Beneficiary Societies that Provide Commercial-Type Insurance (sec. 501 (c)(8)). A fraternal beneficiary society, order, or association is exempt from tax as an organization described in section 501 (c )(8) only if no substantial part of its activities consists of providing commercial-type insurance. In the case of an organization that is exempt from tax under the proposal, it is taxed under the rules relating to insurance companies rather than under the unrelated business income tax rules generally applicable to exempt organizations. Raises: $500 million L. Established Additional Exemption Standards for Credit Counseling Organizations (sec. 501). Under the proposal, a nonprofit credit counseling agency or other nonprofit organization that provides credit counseling, debt management, and similar services, is eligible for exemption from income tax only as a charitable or educational organization under section 50l(c)(4). It also provides additional requirements that must be satisfied by a credit counseling organization in order to be an organization described in section 50l (c)(3) or (c)(4), and the requirements supplement, rather than replace the present law requirements.

Ms Maynard reviewed the revised Legislative Goals Statement, a copy of which is attached, noting changes to Goals 9, 15 and 16. Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously approved, it was RESOLVED that the Legislative Goals Statement, a copy of which is attached, be approved with the 2004 updates noted in bold. Ms. Maynard presented a recommended position on the State Budget Crisis, requested by the Board at the Jw1e 2004 Board Meeting after discussing the Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) document, Socially and Fiscally Responsible Solutions to the State Fiscal Crisis- Recommendations to the State Policymakers. She noted that the Board did not take a position on the MNA document because one of the recommendations was to decouple the Michigan Estate Tax from the Federal Estate Tax, a step that contradicts an existing CMF Legislative Goal. Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously approved, it was RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations supports bipartisan efforts to seek long term fiscally responsible solutions, including but not limited to restructuring the state' s tax structure, that will provide sufficient government funding to services critical for the quality of life expected and deserved by all residents. Ms. Maynard shared the Committee's initial response to the 19-page Senate Discussion Paper. She noted the National Panel being formed by Independent Sector will include Michigan members - B ill R ichardson, Bill White, Dottie Johnson and Sam Singh and have a preliminary report in February with a final report in June. However, she noted that the Committee feels it is important that Senators Levin and Stabenow be infonned now of CMF's positions on the issues as noted in the recommended resolution. RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations supports recommendations in the Senate Finance Committee discussion paper to improve the Forms 990 and 990-PF and to allow for the sharing of information between federal and state regulators, and further opposes recommendations in the paper to impose new fees on the nonprofit sector and to change the treatment of administrative expenses. Learning to Give National Steering Committee Chair Russ Mawby updated the Board on the progress of Learning to Give (LTG). Kathy Agard, Executive Director, noted LTG will now be seen on factoids/ads in Jack Loeks Theaters prior to the showing ofiMAX films because LTG has developed teacher lesson plans on IMAX films. Ms. Agard announced the Fetzer Institute will be moving their "Generosity of the Spirit" philanthropy materials to the LTG website soon. Rob Collier highlighted the work of the National Steering Committee over the past several months in exploring corporate sponsorships. He shared that consultants recommend LTG needs to have its own identity. Because CMF has a well established system in place with its two supporting organizations, Michigan Community Foundations' Ventures and the Michigan AIDS Fund, the Steering Committee recommends Learning to Give become a Supporting Organization of CMF as an intennediary step. �Board of Trustees Meeting M inutes- November 3, 2004 Page 6 Russ Mawby has agreed to serve as the Founding Honorary Chair, with Dottie Johnson and Jim Kelly serving as Co-Chairs. Jim Kelly noted the focus is to aggressively grow LTG building on the accomplishments in Michigan and now in Indiana.

VI. Updates from Supporting Organizations A. Learning to Give The newly appointed Learning to Give Board of D irectors has met twice since the November Council of Michigan Foundations Board meeting in Detroit. Organizing documents have been approved and submitted both in Michigan and with the federal government. At the most recent meeting held on February 22, 2005, the new board reviewed, discussed and approved the 2005-2006 Plan of Work and Budget. The Plan of Work for Learning to Give for this fiscal year includes three major goals and their related tasks: 1. Creating new K-12 Philanthropy Education Curricular Products This goal completes the work promised in our current grants from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, Lilly Endowment, Corporate for National and Community Service, Fetzer Institute, and the McGregor Fund. 2. Developing Selected Pa rtnerships to Support K-12 Philanthropy Education in Targeted States This goal completes the work in extending LTG through Grand Valley State University and the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University (LTG-Michigan, and LTG-Indiana). In addition, efforts will be made this year to take LTG to at least one additional state. 3. Sustain K-12 Philanthropy E ducation This goal includes the development of the new supporting organization for Learning to Give and the continued exploration of strategies for the long-tem1 sustainability and growth of philanthropy education. The LTG Board agreed that there are two primary priorities under goal three: to pursue national corporate sponsorship; and a potential merger opportunity with a new group called "Community League". We expect significant activity on both priorities this spring and look forward to a fu ll briefing at the CMF June Board Meeting. In addition, the Lilly Endowment has invited submission of a $1.5 million proposal for the three years starting January 1, 2006. The next LTG Board meeting is scheduled as a conference call on June 7, 2005. CMF Board members are encouraged to visit the new rooms on the web-site (leamingtogive.org) that extend the philanthropy education resources to Parents, Youth Workers, and Religious Instructors. Included in the back pocket are: LTG at a Glance, an article from Grand Valley State University and a one pager on LTG at the area IMAX Theaters. �President's Report February 23, 2005 Page 7 B. Michigan Community Foundations' Ventures The "Community Foundation R & D Incubator" supported by the Mott Foundation has already begun research for the next portfolio of marketing and communication tools to be released this Fall at the COF Community Foundation conference in Seattle through the National Marketing Action Team (NMAT). The "Regional Marketing Initiative" continues with three states, Iowa, South Carolina and Maryland planning collective marketing campaigns in their regions utilizing the NMAT marketing tools. A renewal grant application has been submitted to the Mott Foundation for the period starting April 1, 2005. Aspen Institute' s Nonprofit Sector Research Fund and the CS Mott Foundation have supported a research project "Together is Better", examining the effects of regional collaboration among small community foundations on their operations, marketing and financial sustainability. This research project is a joint effort ofMCFV, Blueprint Research & Design, Inc., Public Policy Associates, and Williams Group, and will include 5 case studies on collaboration- two from Michigan. More than a 40% response rate was received to the national survey, exceeding expectations. The final report is being drafted for an April 15 release. "Making a Difference: A community impact series," a four session Michigan curriculum on opportunities for community foundations to better define and collect meaningful outcomes and performance measures with grantees has been repurposed as a self-directed web based product will be made available to the nation later this spring via the Council on Foundation's Center for Community Foundation Excellence, thanks to funding from the Mott Foundation. CompassPoint Nonprofit Services in San Francisco with MCFV in an advisory role has received $40,000 in grants to conduct a national research study on the status of relations between Community Foundations and U nited Ways in rural communities, mid-size cities and large urban metropolitan areas. The report will be presented at the COF Fall Conununity Foundation Conference in Seattle. C. Michigan AIDS Fund In November, the Michigan AIDS Fund (MAF) was in the midst of a major organizational assessment with the counsel of the Management Assistance Group (MAG) consulting firm in Washington, DC. After a rigorous review and analysis, MAG presented three potential options for the future direction of MAF. In December, the MAF Board of Tmstees adopted the option to "transform MAF into a new entity with a broader vision that includes both a role as funder and a role advocating for sound and compassionate public policy regarding HIVI AIDS." To that end, the Board adopted MAF's new mission: "To prevent the spread of HIVI AIDS in Michigan by increasing knowledge and awareness of the HIVIAIDS epidemic, and to raise and invest public and private funds to effectively prevent the disease." �President's Report February 23, 2005 Page 8 While this means re-dedicating the organization to its role as a funder, it is with a singular focus on preventing H IV/AIDS in Michigan. Our Transition Committee and the Alford Group have been working to develop a detailed plan, a sound budget, and practical steps for implementation. The new plan requires development of new grant making guidelines, a much greater emphasis and investment in fund development, and a re-alignment of the MAF Board around our new objectives. As we enter the third decade of the disease, the H IVI AIDS epidemic has changed and MAF is changing to meet the needs ofthose most affected. CMF has been a vital partner with MAF since our found ing in 1989 and we look forward to working together in the fight against HIV/AIDS. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Advancing giving. February 23, 2005 To: S. Martin Taylor, Chair, and Members of the Board of Trustees From: Rob Collier, President Re: 2005-06 Plan of Work cc: Vicki Rosenberg, Vice President and COO David Lindberg, Vice President Finance & Administration I am pleased to enclose the proposed Plan of Work for the fiscal year starting April 1, 2005 to March 31, 2006. The Plan ofWork has been prepared under the leadership ofVicki Rosenberg, Chief Operating Officer, with significant input by all Program Directors, Dave Lindberg and me. At the March 3'd Board Meeting, Vicki will lead the presentation that will include highlights of activities this year in Serving Grantmakers, Advancing Giving as well as new activities in the proposed Plan ofWork. RESOLVED: That the Plan of Work for 2005-06, as recommended by the Executive Committee, be approved. Background I would like to draw your attention to two key developments in the proposed Plan of Work: • metrics have now been developed for each objective in the Plan. The Metric is listed under the objective in the first column on the left. For the past three years we have been operating with one metric for each of the six goal statements. In an effort to better determine the outcomes of our actions, staff feels that this is an important step in demonstrating our accountability to both the board and the membership. The Executive Committee supports this development. the separate goals for membership and operations have been consolidated to a new goal: to operate a model membership association. The objectives for membership are continued! in the consolidated goal statement. • In addition, each year we present in this memo management's priorities for the new fiscal year. 1. Membership This year we are combining the two past priorities of Membership Retention and R ecru itment into one - Membership. With the financial shortfall we are facing in 2006-07, it is vital that we examine all revenue sources, and membership is a vital source - both in terms of dues from exiting members and potential members. This may be the year to consider expanding membership categories to include those categories of public charities that are grantmakers we presently do not serve- such as hospital foundations and K-12 foundations. Other activities this �2005-06 Pla n of Work Memo Febmary 23 , 2005 Page 2 year may include: restructuring the membership committee, new forms of membership for fami ly foundations and continued targeted asks to the list of 83. 2. Coordinated Marketing of Educational Opportunities While accountability continues to be a primary message, we have realized that it is one of the critical elements to effective philanthropy. Therefore in the proposed Plan of Work "Effective Grantmaking/Philanthropy" is going to be at the core of our many educational opportunities in 2005. 3. A Helpful Regulatory Environment for Philanthropy This priority continues to consume about 25% of my time. CMF is considered a leadership organization in the country with our experience and track record. We look forward to working with Ellen Barclay the new President of the Forum of 30 regional associations of grantmakers in implementing the accountability and effectiveness project, I have helped to develop. This will help CMF especially with our enhanced commun ications plan. I serve on one of the five work groups for the National Panel convened by Independent Sector as well as on the IS Public Policy Committee. 4. Strengthening our Internal Infrastructure This will be the final year of our five year strategic plan as well as the fi nal year of our three year technology plan. Much has been accomplished but more needs to be done. We look forward to summarizing the results and next steps at our fall Board meeting. The Communications Plan to be discussed at the March 3'd Board M eeting will get us started. These four priorities have been discussed with staff, and we look forward to discussing them with you. Finally, I have enclosed an organizational chart that details the complexity of CMF. �DRAFT FY2005 Plan of Work Mission: To increase, enhance and improve philanthropy in Michigan.

Twe nty (20) did not pay their 2003 dues, and senior management is working to determine those we should drop from membership. Reminder letters were sent to 81 grantmakers in mid-September, resulting in 53 renewals to date. DISCUSSION ITEM- Guiding Principles as a Condition of Membership Beginning in 2004 as a part of the renewal process, members were asked to subscribe, for the first time, to the Guiding Principles of the Council ofMichigan Foundations. The renewal invoice form includes a box where the member main contact signs and dates their acceptance of the Principles. Renewal thank you letters reiterated the importance of these principles and m embers not signing were afforded the opportunity via their thank you to sign on. To date, twenty-nine members have not done so. Staff looks forward to the guidance of the Board in how to address this issue of non-signing.

Advancing giving. Date: February 23, 2005 Memo to: CMF Board of Trustees From: Philip H. Peters, Audit & Finance Committee Member Dav id R. Lindberg RE: CMF 12-31-04 Financial Statements Resolved that the CMF Board of Trustees accept the 12-31-04 Financial Statements as recommended by the CMF Audit & Finance and Executive Committees. On February 16, 2005, the CMF Audit & Finance and Executive Committees reviewed and approved the 12-3 1-04 Financial Report. Of special note is the fact that the CMF Core Operations is projected to earn a surplus of $52,800. Core Operations Note 1: Member Contributions Overall the dues increase instituted April I, 2004 has exceeded our expectations with the lost revenue due to members canceling running below budget. As of early February 2005 we had 52 unpaid members with the anticipation that 16 will renew before 3-31-05. This will leave 36 members that we anticipate will not renew, primarily from the smaller fami ly foundation group. Note 2: Conference & Meetings As of December 61h registration figures for the Annual Conference were: Full Registrations Partial Registrations Speakers etc. Nov 2004 Budget 400 250 150 800 Nov 2004 Actual 282 194 223 699 Nov 2003 Actual 328 227 150 705 Based on our latest proj ections it appears the Annual Conference will generate a surplus of roughly $61,000, thanks to Rob's negotiation with the Hyatt in Dearborn to waive the $35,000 penalty they originally billed us for the shortfall in the overnight room counts. In exchange for waiving this penalty CMF needs to go back to the Hyatt in the fall of2007. S:\Boards and Committees\CMF\Board\2004-05\3.3 .05 Meeting Materials\Finance 3-3-0S.doc �Expenses Note 3: Wages & Benefits The variance from budget is due to the unemployment compensation accrual that was set up to cover possible claims down the road, per the policy approved by this committee in October 2004. Note 4: Technology/Computers The favorable variance is due to the iMIS version 10 upgrade, which came as part of the annual maintenance fees we pay. Note 5: P ublications & Print ing The projected variance from budget is due to the follow ing items. Benefits Postcard Communications Consultant Travel expenses Directory Advertising Family Philanthropist Member Benefits Brochure Mich Grantmaking Scene & Memo reduced costs $4,000 3,000 4,500 3,000 2,600 6,000 Note 6: Professional Services The variance from budget is primarily due to legal expenses which we anticipate will end the year under budget.

Advancing giving. February 23, 2005 Memo to: CMF Board of Trustees From: Herbert (Ted) D. Doan, Investment Committee Member Re: December 31, 2004, Investment Report RESOLVED that the December 31, 2004, Investment Report, as reviewed by the Investment Committee, be accepted. On February 23, 2005, the Investment Committee met to review and approve the enclosed report. On a quarterly basis, the combined Investment Committee for the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF), Michigan Community Foundations' Venture (MCFV) and the Michigan AIDS Fund (MAP), meets to review the investment perfonnance for the operating and pennanent endowment funds. Recent Issues Addressed by the Investment Committee: KYIP Investments CMF is currently holding $10,401,572 received from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation for the purpose of supporting pennanent endowment funds for three Kellogg Youth Initiative Pmtnership sites. With a distribution plan formally accepted by the three sites the Investment Committee has moved these funds from equities and fixed income securities to money market instruments m1d U.S. Treasuries. To date $2,550,000 in grants has been disbursed to the three sites and based on the matching requirement in place distributions are anticipated to last through 2009. Pooling of Investment of CMF Endowment Funds Using a new software package which provides for the allocation of investment income from a pooled investment account to separate endowment funds, staff has completed the consolidation of the eight endowment funds into one pooled investment account each at Comerica and Bank One (vs. 16 accounts in the past). This process significantly reduces the administrative time to rebalance the investments and book the monthly investment income to the various endowment funds. S:\Boards and Committees\CMF\Board\2004-05\3.3.05 Meeting Materials\Investment Memo.doc �The enclosed Investment Report is presented in three sections. Investment Performance Report The benchmark is based on the targeted asset allocation formula listed below, using the Lipper median returns provided by Comerica on a quarterly basis. Asset Class S&P 500 S&P 400 S&P 600 REIT International Equities Short Bond Bond High Yield Bond Fund Cash Allocation 37% 9% 6% 5% 13% 12.5% 12.5% 5% 0% The Lipper returns are based on the following asset classes. Lipper Large Cap Core Lipper Mid Cap Core Lipper Small Cap Core Lipper Real Estate Equity Lipper International Lipper Corporate Debt A Rated F ixed Income Asset Allocation Report The Investment Committee has approved an asset allocation re-balancing policy that instructs CMF's Vice President of Finance to rebalance the endowment fund portfolios on a quarterly basis. To keep administrative time to a minimum CMF maintains one checking account to pay all endowment fund expenses. The negative cash balances are the result of endowment fund expenditures from the CMF checking account, which are periodically reimbursed, by transferring cash from the endowment funds to the CMF general checking account Investment Performance Comparison Report In addition to the Lipper returns, the Investment Committee uses the Cambridge & Associates, Inc. pool of colleges, universities, and foundations as a benchmark comparison. With the pooling of the investments starting October 1, 2004, this is the last quarter in which the individual endowment funds will be listed on this report.

Our goal is to use communications more effectively to advance the achievement ofCMF' s mission, vision and objectives. Informed by the 2002 Strategic Plan/2004 Member Survey we completed by June of2004: • Analysis of existing communications • Creation of new Communications Team • Introduction of branding system (user manual, 2003 conference marketing & participant materials, annual report) • Launch of redesigned website • Introduction of original news stories (News Wire) and • Initiation of market research. Since June of2004 we have focused on: • Continued implementation of the branding system (stationary, publications and brochures) • Research of target audiences as noted below • Review and refmement of core messages as noted below • Improvements to marketing strategies • Identification of operational requirements Market research involving nearly 600 individuals included: Detailed data is available upon request. • • • • Interviews of over 350 member trustees, executives and staff; 43 editors and reporters from 39 newspapers; 16 station managers and on-air reporters for major television stations; 24 station managers and on-air reporters for major radio stations; 16 legislators and legislative staff members An electronic survey of 133 members Focus groups in Detroit and Grand Rapids involving 22 members Web trends collected on a monthly basis. Significant findings are as follows: • • • Media want quick, on-demand access to news sources, data, story ideas, contacts, and spokespersons. Legislators want quick, on-demand access to information about member activities such as grants, projects and research. Members hear from CMF at least monthly and value our communications as indicated by the following data. They increasingly prefer electronic delivery. • 93% of member main contacts (325 of389) receive NewsWire and 80% receive E-News (some opted out or are currently being spammed out). Only 7% of member main contacts receive no electronic or fax communication from CMF. These are primarily unstaffed family foundations that asked not to receive email or fax at home. �Communications Plan February 23, 2005 Page 3 • • • • E-news has a higher than average open and click-through rates The Newsroom on www.cmif.org has been the most visited area over a nine-month period during which the number of visitors increased 150% (from 1,462 to 4,947) Members value and use the website as indicated by member surveys and by a 100% increase in v isitors and 50% increase in new visitors between 4/04 and 1/05 On surveys and in interviews and focus groups, members indicated several preferences to improve the value of CMF communications. Those with a critical mass of support are included in the recommendations on page 3. Core Messages CMF has several core messages it uses across consistently, for example, - the year's best education and networking event for staffand trustees ofMichigan foundations -- was used in 2003 and 2004 annual conference marketing materials. In Phase II, CMF: • drafted core messages for major FY05 initiatives • determined that the Value Statements need to be used more effectively and frequently • refined the wording of Purpose Statements to improve their usefulness as core messages. Core messages CMF uses consistently are: Identity: a statewide membership association of over 400 foundations and corporate grantmakers making grants for charitable purposes. Mission: Vision: Values: Pwposes: to increase, enhance and improve philanthropy in Michigan. to be the premier philanthrophic support organization. Relationships, Inclusivity, Servant-Leadership, Knowledge, Excellence (simplified and started by key word) • Advocate for a legislative and regulatory environment conducive to philanthropy. • Educate foundation staff and trustees about effective practice. • Increase organized philanthropy in Michigan. • Lead and support collaborative philanthropic responses to critical needs. • Network Michigan grantmakers with each other and with grantseekers. • Promote public understanding of and appreciation for the role of philanthropy. • Operate a model membership association. Operational Requirements In FY05, CMF will continue strengthening its internal capacity through: 1. Improving quality control systems for its database of members/others. 2. Improving systems for obtaining member input and tracking member use and satisfaction. The FY05 Plan of Work proposes: • creating an Editorial Advisory Group �Communications Plan Fe bruary 23, 2005 Page 4 • • creating a list serve of member communications officers to facilitate the exchanges of ideas, requests for submissions and submission forms, guest articles, etc. conducting the Biennial Member Satisfaction Survey in the 41h quarter 3. Training staff to improve the accuracy and speed of responses to routine member inquiries. The CMF Communications Team includes Vicki Rosenberg, COO; Mike Gallagher, editorial consultant; Kathy Ginocchio, Director of Technology and former web master; and Gail FowersSchaub, Director of Knowledge Resources and Services. Bob Tobin, of Williams Group, and Amber Khan, of The Communications Network (in philanthropy) provided important advice. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Advancing giving. February 23, 2005 Memo to: CMF Board of Trustees From: Philip H. Peters, Audit & Finance Committee Member David R. Lindberg RE: CMF 2005-06 Budget RESOLVED that the CMF Board of Trustees approve the 2005-06 Budget as recommended by the CMF Audit & Finance and Executive Committees. On February 16, 2005, the CMF Audit & Finance and Executive Committees reviewed and approved the attached 2005-06 budget. Issues to note: Fiscal Year 2005-06 For our upcoming fiscal year 2005-06, the overall budget is fairly routine with no funding issues to report at this time. Fiscal Year 2006-07 2005-06 is the final year of special grant funding for technical support to community foundations. With the end of this grant the Community Foundation Endowment Fund will be used to subsidize the ongoing assistance in this area. In keeping with our 5% spending policy for endowment funds this fund will generate $291 ,000 in spendable income versus projected expenses of $525,000. Core Services Revenue Note 1: Member Contributions Overall the dues increase that was instituted on April 1, 2004, has been well received by the membership. With the S&P 500 being up 8.99% for the year ending 12-31-04, we expect dues for 2005-06 to remain relatively constant. S:\Boards and Committees\CMF\Board\2004-05\3.3.05 Meeting Materials\Budget 3-3-05.doc �Note 2: Additional Member Contributions The bulk of this category includes the following anticipated major contributions. W.K. Kellogg Foundation C.S. Mott Foundation $150,000 24,000 Kellogg has indicated that 2004-05 will be the final year of their general support grant of $150,000, with future support in this area based on specific projects. CMF will be working with Kellogg over the next six months to further clarify their expectations for this annual support, with the expectation this amount will continue in future years. Note 3: Conference & Meetings Income & Expense Overall we anticipate revenue in this area to remain relatively constant for the coming year. The Annual Conference scheduled for October 2005 is budgeted to generate a $50,000 surplus, which is in line with the November 2004 Conference.

The increase from 200405 is due to a 4% budgeted wage increase coupled by a 14% increase in the cost ofhealth insurance. Note 6: Postage The increase from the prior year is due to shipping charges associated with the News service post cards and publications promotional maibng. Note 7: Equipment The decrease from 2004-05 is due to the purchase of a new copier in April of2004.

CONFERENCE PROGRAM FORMAT ON 33rd Annual Conference Octobe r 10-12, Grand Traverse Resort and Spa Special Pre-conference Events, October 9 • __f!i:ttve �DEAR COLLEAGUES Welcome to the Council of Michigan Foundations' 33rd Annual Conference. We're excited to have you with us on the spectacular Grand Traverse Bay for the year's premier education and networking event for staff and trustees of Michigan foundations. Our theme, Effective Grantmaking for Changing Times, speaks to the increased expectations government, the media, nonprofits and foundation leaders have for every aspect of foundation operations from administration to grantor-grantee relations. The over 60 sessions, workshops, micro-workshops and other special opportunities will help you maintain or strengthen your foundation's effectiveness. We are grateful to the many Program Committee members who designed these opportunities. Their work was informed by the latest developments in the field as well as evaluations of the 2004 conference. Developing the capacity to tell your foundation's story is an important and often overlooked element of effectiveness. This year, CMF introduces its first conference exhibit, Telling Your Story, to showcase effective communication strategies used by CMF members. We encourage you to visit Resource Central frequently during the conference which offers an array of learning opportunities and excellent resources. While there, please visit with each of our exhibitors, all experienced in working with foundations. The generosity of our many sponsors has made it possible to provide you with an outstanding conference experience. Please join us in thanking them for their support. Thank you for being with us. TOM COOK, executive director MARLENE "MARTY" FLUHARTY, executive director Cook Family Foundation Americana Foundation BARBARA A. HALL, executive director MAUREEN NICHOLSON, executive director Whirlpool Foundation Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation �HONORARY CHAIRS The A rt and Mary Schmuckal Fam ily The Council of Michigan Foundations is honored to recognize the Art and Mary Schmuckal family of Traverse City as Honorary Chairs of the 33rd Annual Conference. Mary Hoffer grew up in Petoskey and was working as a bookkeeper and teller at Traverse City State Bank when she met and married a young dairy farmer named Art Schmuckal in 1945. By 1955, Art was looking for more activity and joined forces with George Slane to form the Slane and Schmuckal Oil Company, continually recognized as one of the best operations in the Shell franchise and still a family business. Throughout their 53 years of marriage, Art and Mary remained a devoted team. "What's always impressed me about my parents is they've been in the background," notes daughter Evelyn. "Their deep belief as Catholics is that works are important. They've been so involved in the Christian community and that has spilled over into the general community.They have given us a strong sense of direction, and I see that in my siblings and their children." Marsha Smith, executive director of Rotary Charities of Traverse City comments, "The Schmuckal family demonstrates philanthropy in the full sense of the word. They give of their time and talent, as well as resources to improve this community that has been their life long home. Nonprofit organizations, key to the fabric of the Grand Traverse Region, have benefited and continue to benefit from their service and leadership." For example, Art served as chairman of the Grand Traverse County Board of Supervisors when plans were made to build a new county Medical Care facility adjacent to Munson Medical Center in the 1950's. The plan represented a novel, cost-effective approach to combining hospital and county ancillary services, such as laundry and pharmacy. This ongoing interest in medical care is shown in last year's gift to support Munson's Emergency Room expansion -serving more than 40,000 people a year. The Art and Mary Schmuckal Family Foundation was established following Mary's death in 1999. "It was something that Mom wanted to do and all of us kids thought it was wonderful," says daughter Barbara. The family continues to use one consistent benchmark for supporting a project: "Does it benefit the community?" When the answer is yes, Schmuckal family funds are frequently committed to the cause, often quietly and behind the scenes. Following the legacy of their parents, Paul and Don Schmuckal and sisters Evelyn Richardson and Barbara Benson, continue to believe "the important thing is not how much you'll get paid or what you are entitled to, but to return back to the community what you have been blessed to have." �TABLE OF CONTENTS THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS & EXHIBITORS I General Information . ........ . ... ... . . . . ................. . .3 Resource Central ............ . . . .... . ...... .. ... . .... .. .. .4 Conference At a Glance . .. .............. ... . . . .... .. . .. .5-6 ****SPONSORS SESSION SPONSORS DTE Energy Foundation Americana Foundation Come rica Bank, Munder Blue Cross Blue Shield of Capital Management, Wilson Kemp and World Conference Schedule Asset Management Sunday, October 9 ......... .. .. .. .. . ................ ... .7 General Motors Foundation Monday, October 10 ....... ... ... . ............ . . ... . . .7-8 Matt Foundation CMF Early Matters JP Morgan Asset Management Funders' Group Merrill Lynch- The lies Group Dorothy A.

In 1999/2000, the Midland Area Community Foundation, with funding support from some other local foundations, led the Midland Visioning Project. This countywide initiative was an effort to solicit from Midland County citizens their feelings about the county's assets, needs, and their vision for the county ten years hence. One of the most common criticisms was that the entrances into the City of Midland were not welcoming - that there was no sense of arrival or sense of place. Based on this information, the Entranceways Initiative Task Force (EITF) was developed in 2002. The EITF is comprised of citizens, city planners, business leaders and local foundation members who joined together with the central mission of improving the appearance and function of the entranceways into the City of Midland. Recognizing that a city’s entranceways offer the first impression of a community for many visitors, the EITF chose the north Eastman Avenue area as their current area of focus. In partnership with the Midland County Fair Board, landscape improvements were made at both the south and north fairground entrances on Eastman Avenue. The EITF has also installed four large copper medallions on the US-10 overpass over Eastman Avenue. Imminent plans include landscaping at this intersection, the relocation and landscaping of a new Park and Ride lot, and additional landscaping along US-10.

Committee History: Roles & Responsibilities ln November 2001, the Committee drafted a set of Roles & Responsibilities. During the next two meetings, the Committee made revisions to the document and agreed to the final document in May 2002. l n sum, the Committee defined its role as educator and relationship builder. Roles & Responsibilities (5/02) On behalf of CMF's diverse grantrnaking membership, the Public Policy Committee seeks to: I. Inform CMF members about the potential of their individual and collective role in the public policy process and engage them in that process. 2. Facilitate dialogues between CMF members and policy makers. 3. Monitor and inform CMF members about state and local policies that may affect their foundations or the nonprofit sector. 4. Make recommendations to CMF's Board of Trustees regarding opportunities for CMF partnerships with state agencies for which CMF would serve as an intermediary. Recommendations will be made by the Committee co-chairs based on input obtained from the full Committee and from CMF members obtained via an on-l ine survey. �5. Advise CMF about positions it might take on particular public policy issues. CMF w ill refer those issues the Committee believes may have a direct impact on philanthropy to its Government Relations Committee. The Committee will make recommendations to the CMF Board of Trustees on issues that it believes will not have a direct impact on philanthropy. Examples of Possible Committee Actions In carrying out its roles and responsibilities, the Committee may advise CMF to act in a variety of ways and assist CMF in doing so. Some examples include: • Sponsoring educational opportunities for members and nonmember grantmakers to improve understanding about affecting the public policy process. • Highlighting grantmaking, educational and other efforts of members and nonmember grant makers that affect public policy areas via articles in CMF newsletters and on www.cmif.org • Convening infonnational sessions for members and nonmember grantmakers on the role private funding can play on public issues. Such sessions would present a balanced view of the pros and cons of funding on such matters. • Initiate discussions and meetings w ith representatives of the Executive branch as warranted on issues such as devolution, and foster care. • Produce a guide for policymakers and the media on grant makers and their levels of expertise in various areas such as the arts, community development and housing, education, health, youth and families, jobs and economic development, natural resources and recreation, and strengthening the nonprofit sector. Questions: Should the Committee revise its May 2002 Roles & Responsibilities based on: (1) experiences to date, including leadership on Early Matters; and (2) relationship with the Foundation Liaison. If so, what should those changes be? Is the Committee successfully carrying out its charge? In which areas is it succeed ing and in which is it not? In those where it is not, what might it do differently? Committee History: Focus Issues At its January 2002 meeting, the Committee agreed to focus its work on five issues it believed were of interest to the majority of CMF members. At its May 2002 meeting, the Committee clarified and refined that list. Issue selection and categorization was based on the fo llowing criteria: Important to members and their grantees Build on significant knowledge/expertise within CMF members and/or affinity groups Require on-going education by grantmakers Link to impending legislation affecting grantees, i.e., TANF Present opportunities to inform grantmakers and offer options for involvement Emerging or current trends - ex. State fisca l policy Cross-cutting issues - bridge & leverage In May 2002, the Committee refined its list and categories as follows: Short Term T ANF/economic self sufficiency (replaced jobs) Short Tenn Safety Net K-12 Short Term Short Term Early Childhood Long Tenn Access to Health Care (expanded to include financing) Land Use Long Tenn �It defined short term as immediate need to legislative action with 12 months and long term as issues affinity groups are looking at plus some short-term issues. It agreed to develop criteria and processes for identifying/confirming/ informing members about related "emerging" issues in a neutral way. Questions: What is a reasonable number of issues for any period? How long should the Committee's commitment be to any one issue? How successful has the Committee been in addressing each of the six issues? Should the Committee adopt a more intensive strategy, such as that for Early Matters, for other issues? If so, for which issue and w ith ways? Committee History: Education & Awareness Activities At its January 2002 meeting, the Committee agreed to focus its work on foundation staff and tmstees and to develop and implement the following strategies. As noted earlier, creation of the Fellowship and the Office of the Foundation Liaison and changes at CMF (expanded and enhanced communications services), made it possible for the Committee to significantly expand and, in some cases, institutionalize some of these strategies. The Committee's goal for these activities was to: 1. Increase foundation staff/trustees' awareness about role foundations can/do play in public policy. Specifically: W hat puplic policy is; How public p olicy gets made; Why fo undations should participate in public policy process (impact on program goals); and What roles foundations can p lay in public policy arena (in general and by foundation type) 2. Increase nonprofit leaders' awareness of role nonprofit can/does play in public policy (through partnership with MNA). Committee Plan of Action Tactic Status Initiated with articles, module in 2003 Public Policy 101 Course/Campaign lnstimte for New Grantmakers and on web, Handbook in development Fellow attends affinity group events and Refer Issues to CMF affinity groups for discussion/ recommendations for action Committee collaborates with those.

Committee History: Membership The Committee was constituted by invitation with a priority being representation by all foundation types (family, corporate, commun ity and independent) and regions. Membership has stayed steady at 20 with three new members offsetting three resignations. The Committee is served by two key nonprofit partners: MNA and the CRC. A core group of approximately eight members regularly attend meetings. During its first year, the Committee examined how it might relate to active CMF affinity groups (Land Use, K-12 and Devolution). Representatives of these groups were invited to the Committee's May 2002 meeting. As a result of their discussions, the Committee agreed to collaborate with these groups as needed rather than to add representatives of each to its membership. Groups currently active are Land Use, Aging, Women & Girls and Early Childhood. Questions: What are the most important criteria for Committee membership? • What relationship should the Committee have with active CMF affinity groups? • Is there an optimal size for the Committee? • How can the Committee more effectively engage members thereby increasing attendance at meetings? Definition of Issues Safety Net: T ANF, income assistance programs, public health services, child care, transportation for low income families, workforce development, nutrition programs including WIC, ELSA (free and reduced lunch and breakfast), mental health, low income housing.

He congratulated the staff and noted CMF received an unqualified opinion from Rehmann Robson. Dave Lindberg, Vice President for Finance and Administration, reviewed the details of the Audit Report noting the fluctuation on the Combined Statement of Activity report was due to special projects such as the Tobacco Settlement Partnership and Michigan IDA Partnership (Individual Development Accounts). Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously approved, it was RESOLVED that the Rehmann Robson Ma rch 31, 2004 & 2003 audit report, as recommended by the CMF Audit & Finance Committee, be accepted. Mr. Lindberg also reviewed the Core Operations and the Consolidated Statement of Activities reports for 4/ 1/03 to 3/31/04.

Acheson Foundation, Port Huron Donna M Niester, Vice President Kaufman Foundation, Muskegon (rejoin) Sylvia C. Kmifman, Trustee Nartel Family Foundation, Grand Blanc (rejoin) Evelyn Nartelski, President Smith Barney Citigroup, Southfield J Lawrence Lipton, Vice President/Financial Planning Specialist Government Relations Dave Campbell presented the Government Relations report on behalf of Co-Chair Libby Maynard. Trustee Campbell introduced the Revised Payout Study recently completed by Cambridge Associates. Dave Lindberg reviewed the update which reaffinns the original study's conclusions that past levels of returns do not support a payout rate above 5%. CMF is not publicizing this update but holding it for possible use in Senate Finance Hearings expected this summer. Rob Collier discussed the recent announcement from the Senate Finance Committee on Finance that the first hearing on charitable giving will be held June 22. The hearings will consider governance and best practices of charities; charities accommodating tax shelters; donor gifts of tangible and intangible property; and current problems and issues in the charitable community. Trustee Richardson noted Dean Zerbe, Chief Investigative Counsel of the Finance Conm1ittee, is writing a white paper which is where the payout study may come into play. The paper may include proposals such as "no disqualified person should receive any compensation whatsoever", travel could be restricted to the Government reimbursement rate, and trustee compensation could be limited to what the Federal Commission pays its members. Trustee Richardson is a member of the Foundation Executive Group that is trying to develop a template for foundation standards and promote the national standards on the Council on Foundations website in an effort to let the Senate Finance Committee know that foundations have reforms in place. Rob Collier highlighted the tentative arrangements for the three panels. The first panel will focus on enforcement with invitees including the IRS Commissioner. For the second panel known as "Trouble in River City", Senator Grassley has invited three presenters to showcase abuses in the nonprofit sector, most likely one will deal with the donation of used cars for charitable purposes. The third panel will focus on foundation and nonprofit governance. Invitees include Diana Aviv of Independent Sector, and Rick Cohen of the National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy. Collier recapped CMF's proactive steps including adopting the Guiding Principles, the Education Compliance Policy as well as CMF's involvement in the Attorney General's Nonprofit Advisory Council. He noted New York's Deputy Attorney General recently commented this may be a national model. �Board ofTntstees Meeting Minutes - June I0, 2004 Page 4 Dave Campbell reported both the House and Senate Versions ofthe CARE Act appear to be dead for this session. He presented Michigan Nonprofit Association's (MNA) proposed response to the state budget crisis that more than 80 state nonprofit associations have signed on to. After discussion, it was suggested that CMF not support the proposed statement drafted by MNA but ask the Government Relations Committee to prepare a statement specific to CMF. Dave Campbell presented a revision to CMF's best practices for private foundations. In the past, CMF has recommended that small private foundations under $10 million in assets have an independent audit perfonned at least every three years, with a review in the off years. Based on the five percent payout requirement of private foundations, this Best Practice recommendation should be lowered to $5 million. It seems fair that private foundations model what is required of public charities, and that we not wait for it to be legislated -which will likely happen at some point in the future. Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously approved, it was RESOLVED that the Board adopt the following Best Practice recommendation: That a private foundation with five million in assets should conduct an annual independent audit. Public Policy Coll ier a nd COO Vicki Rosenberg acknowledged CMF's first Philanthropy Fe llow, Rrian Flahaven, who will be leaving CMF the end of the month. The Board congratulated Brian on expanding CMF's public policy work as well as the website which has created a standard in the Public Policy field. Brian's successor, Julie Lynne Ford, was introduced the prior evening at the Board/Staff dinner and will join the CMF team the end of June. Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously approved, it was RESOLVED that the Board of Trustees ofthe Council of Michigan Foundations extends our appreciation to Brian Flahaven for your many contributions to CMF, our Public Policy Committee and the promotion of a strong nonprofit sector in Michigan through service as the first Public Policy Fellow for CMF, and we wish you continued success in your career endeavors of service and leadership. Ms. Rosenberg briefed Board Members on the April 22 Early Matters Forum, a partnership of the Public Policy Committee, Office of the Foundation Liaison, and the Family Foundations Ready by Five Study Group. The goals were to: (a) build awareness/knowledge among public and private sector stakeholders; (b) bring new voices/visions to the discussion and (c) encourage community-based action, new publicprivate partnerships, and systems change. Over 60 foundation representatives, 25 state department staff(FIA, DCA, DOE, etc.), 15 service providers, and staff from the Republican and Democratic policy offices participated in the Forum. �Board ofTntstees Meeting Minutes - June I0, 2004 Page 5 Vicki announced the launching of the legislative E-Bulletin to inform state policy makers about public policy issues from a foundation sector's perspective, and increase their awareness about the work of Michigan grantmakers. Principles and Practices Task Force Task Force Chair Dave Egner reported on Phase II of the Principles and Practices Task Force. The Phase II charge was to develop a policy to answer "what does a regional association of grantmakers do if they hear of allegations of institutional misconduct deftned as actions that may be illegal, involve self-dealing or excess compensation and/or be viewed as unethical if not illegal." Advisory Cabinet Chair Russ Mawby, noting his experience through the Council on Foundations, cautioned the Board to step back when the government gets involved. The Board concluded that, if there is already an investigation by a government entity in progress, CMF will not get involved. If CMF is investigating and the government gets involved, CMF will cease their investigation. In presenting this policy, the Task Force recognized that CMF has no legal authority or jurisdiction to take such actions, but is acting in the best interests of the field of organized philanthropy in Michigan. Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously approved, it was RESOLVED that the following policy be adopted to deal with allegations of inappropriate institutional conduct by a Michigan foundation, regardless of whether the foundation is a member of the Council of Michigan F oundations. Policy "A confidential inquiry may be initiated by the president in response to allegations of inappropriate institutional conduct (such as conflict of interest, self-dealing, excess compensation) that may come to CMF' s attention through media coverage, personal communications to members of CMF's board or staff, and referral from the attorney general's staff. If there is already an investigation by a government entity in progress, CMF will not get involved. If CMF is investigating and the government gets involved, CMF will cease its investigation If the results of this inquiry warrant further action, the president will select a panel of up to five experienced grantmakers from a list already approved by the Board of Trustees, to examine the allegation of inappropriate conduct. The panel will then consider courses of action that CMF might take and recommend appropriate action to the president and board. The panel may recommend: (1) no action or contact with the foundation- member or nonmember or (2) contact with the CEO and or Chair of the foundation in person and/or in writing to review the allegation, investigate the facts, and obtain commitment to or evidence of corrective action. Depending on the level of response, this contact may be expanded to the whole board of the foundation. The response(s) will be shared by the president of CMF with the panel members. �Board ofTntstees Meeting Minutes - June I0, 2004 Page 6 The panel would report to the board on such referrals and recommend a probationary period or revoking membership if it is deemed appropriate. Any decision by the board shall be communicated in writing to the foundation. The foundation will be offered an opportunity to submit a written response and to make a direct presentation to the board. In approving any actions, the board shall decide whether any of its actions or communications will be made public. Any public statement would be made only after careful consideration of the facts and review with legal counsel. If corrective action is not forthcoming in ninety days, the president will under appropriate circumstances refer the foundation to the Charitable Trust Office of the Attorney General. The foundation in question will be given a copy of the correspondence outlining the allegations and efforts to secure a satisfactory response." Trustee Egner introduced a policy to address intermediate sanctions, recommended by the Task Force due to the cases of excess compensation by Michigan foundations being brought to CMF' s attention. CMF staff can use this policy as an educational tool to help both members and nonmembers in responding to the question, what is reasonable compensation for trustees and/or staff? After discussion the Board approved the following policy amending step one by deleting the word "disinterested." Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously approved, it was RESOLVED further that the three steps outlined in the intermediate sanctions rules that apply to public charities be adopted and recommended for use to private foundations when considering issues related to compensation. In the context of intermediate sanctions, when a charity (or its governing board) approves a level of compensation, the law will presume that it is reasonable so long as certain steps are taken. Under the regulations implementing the intermediate sanction rules, three conditions must be satisfied to take advantage of the rebuttable presumption: 1. Approval by a governing board. The compensation arrangement must be approved in advance (before any payment) by the governing body of the organization, which is composed entirely of individuals who do not have a conflict of interest with respect to the compensation arrangement. 2. Reliance on comparable data. Prior to making its determination, the governing body must obtain and rely upon data regarding comparability of compensation. 3. Concurrent documentation. The governing body must adequately document by an entry in the minutes of the appropriate meeting the basis for its determination concurrently with making that determination (within 60 days of the decision or the date of the next meeting of the governing body, whichever is later). �Board ofTntstees Meeting Minutes - June I0, 2004 Page 7 Communications Plan Using a PowerPoint presentation, (copy attached to these minutes) Vicki Rosenberg, Mike Gallagher and Kathy Ginocchio reviewed the Communications Plan. Highlights include: • Target audience - every staff member now receives the E-news instead of just the main contact of the organization. • Data gathering - Mike Gallagher has talked to over 400 grantmakers (both members and nonmembers) over the past year, • Timeliness - directing members to the website for the most current information • New graphic & identity branding - all CMF publications have similar templates • Newswire service - need to make members aware that the information is timely • Web trends - the Newsroom articles have increased the Newsroom usage by 400% 32"d Annual Conference Update Co-chairs Russ Gabier and Sandy Ulsh updated Trustees on developments for the November 3-5 Conference in Dearborn. The Program Committee met May 27 at the Dearborn Hyatt. Confirmed speakers include: Dr. Mary Sue Coleman, President of the University of Michigan, Hodding Carter Jr., President & CEO of the JohnS. and James L Knight Foundation. Resource Central has been redesigned per last year's evaluation forms, while site visits and breakfast roundtables are being confirmed. Registration brochures will be available in August. Family Philanthropy Report Committee Chair Julie Cummings reported the Family Foundation Retreat in Midland was well attended. Trustee Thompson commented on the youth grantrnaking and service learning project at the family shelter. Learning to Give Report Committee Chair Russ Mawby presented the Learning to Give Report. The progress in Michigan has been substantial, and the partnerships with the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University and the Dorothy A. Johnson Center at Grand Valley State University are well underway. Kathy Agard reviewed some of the new lesson plans available. Community Foundation Update Community Foundations Committee Chair Diana Sieger, briefed the Board on the recent Tri-state meeting involving herself, Libby Cherin, Cheryl Elliott, Rob Collier and Donnell Mersereau as well as Indiana and Ohio Foundation CEO's to collaborate together in marketing. Chair Sieger introduced Danielle Williams, CMF' s Mawby intern, who highlighted the MCFYP Longitudinal Study, a 10-year study that gives a fu ll understanding of the value of engaging youth in philanthropy. �Board ofTntstees Meeting Minutes - June I0, 2004 Page 8 Donnell Mersereau, Director, Community Foundations, presented an overview and displayed the ads for the Communities of Color initiative. In addition, Ms. Mersereau announced that CMF, in partnership with Blue Print Research & Design, Public Policy Associates and the Williams Group, has received one ofthree national research grants from the Aspen Institute's Nonprofit Research Fund to look at the economic benefits of small community foundations forming regional partnerships. The $85,000 grant has been complimented by a $50,000 grant from the C.S. Mort Foundation. Michigan IDA Partnership Update Eric Muschler, Director, updated the Board on the latest activities of the Partnership. Five Regional Coordinating Organizations are supervising 50 plus program sites with over 1200 active IDA accounts. Total asset purchases now exceed 200 with more than $10 million in new mortgages generated. Mr. Muschler also reviewed the Year 3 Evaluation Report which is available on the cmif.org website. The evaluation surveyed 50 families that completed the program and 50 families that did not complete the program. Results show the overall credit scores improved for both. He also reported that one of the Regional Coordinating Organizations has received a national pilot grant from the federal government for the SEED Initiative, a national policy initiative of matched Education accounts for 3 & 4 year olds. Adjournment The next regularly scheduled meeting of the Board of Trustees will take place Wednesday, November 1, 2004 at the Hyatt in Dearborn at the :nnd Annual Conference.

Information Services Over the past six months, page views at www.cmif.org have increased by 50%.

Member Community Foundations continue to be the most frequent users of the Member only section of the site, followed in order of frequency of access by Family, Independent and Corporate givers. A new web-based collaboration site was introduced for the Fetzer "Heart of the Philanthropist" participants. The password protected shared web work space allows attendees to collaborate on documents, post reading lists, share photos, comments and add items for discussion Communications In addition to the weekly e-articles produced by Michae l Gallagher, we have published: Annual Report 2003-2004 The Family Philanthropist, Fall 2004 Memo to Members, September 2004 In October 2004, staff conducted an on-line survey to get members' feedback on the format, content, frequency and distribution of current print and electronic communications vehicles.

Advancing giving. Date: September 24, 2004 Memo to: CMF Executive Committee From: Rob Collier, President David R. Lindberg, Vice President, Finance & Administration Vicki Rosenberg, Vice P resident & COO RE: Policy on Unemployment Compensation Accrual RESOLVED that CMF establish a policy of annually accruing for unemployment taxes at an appropriate rate established by management, to cover possible unemployment claims by terminated employees, with the Audit and Finance Committee providing final review and approval for this policy. Background: As a non-profit CMF has exercised the option of paying for unemployment claims on a pay as you go basis, meaning a bill is sent to CMF quarterly for any unemployment claims paid out during this period oftime. From a budgeting stand point funding claims in this manne r has not been an issue since they have generally averaged less than one per year. However, because several major projects will wind down in the next few years, it makes sense to start accruing for this potential liability while those projects still have funds to cover these potential costs. The potential accmal calculation based on 2003 payroll figures is: CMF Core Services CMF Special Projects Michigan AIDS Fund Total Annual Amount $4,500 3,500 1,200 $9,200 During our analysis of switching from a pay as claims arise policy three options have been examined. Option 1: 501 Alliance The 501 Alliance is a non-profit organization that collects unemployment taxes from nonprofits and makes payments directly to the State of Michigan when claims are paid on behalf of the non-profit. Rate starts out at 2.25% • This money is kept in a reserve to pay claims through the 50 1 Alliance. • The rate can rise if CMF's reserve becomes negative. • The entire 2.25% is placed in the reserve. The 501 Alliance charges no administrative fee. They make their money off the investment of these funds. �Option 2: State of Michigan • Rate starts out at 2.7% • After 5 years the rate may change based on actual claims. • After 5 years the State keeps 1% of the 2.7% (or higher) rate that we pay. In this case only 1.7% would be credited to our reserve. Option 3: Set up an annual accrual on CMF's books • Reserve, by booking an annual accrual, the amount CMF would pay either the 501 Alliance or the State of Michigan on our books to cover claims. • Unused money stays with CMF. • CMF's earns the interest on these funds. • The annual accrual could be reduced if the reserve becomes too large. We talked with representatives of two accounting fmns about whether they would allow this accrual to stay on the books or propose an audit adjust, since they may not consider this an actual liability until a claim is filed. Rehmann Robson - CMF's Current Auditor They stated that many of their non-profit clients set up an accrual on their books in this mmmer, and therefore they would not propose that the accrual be taken off the books. Yeo & Yeo - CMF's Audit Committee Chair's Fim1 They would propose the accrual be removed from the books each year, but since the amount most likely would be immaterial to the overall financial statement presentation, they would pass on this adjustment.

Advancing giving. Date: September 20, 2004 Memo to: CMF Executive Committee From: David R. Lindberg, Vice President, Finance & Administration RE: Changes to P ersonnel Policies RESOLVED that Document Destruction, Code of Conduct and Whistle-Blower policies be added to the Personnel Policies of CMF. Background The Sarbanes-Oxley Act which was signed into law on July 30, 2002, was designed to add new governance standards for the corporate sector to rebuild public trust in publicly held companies. CMF established a separate audit committee several years ago and revised the duties of this committee in the fall of2003 to comply with audit committee portion of this act. Because CMF's Personnel policies are used as a model for the nonprofit sector, it is vital that the two standards in the act (document destruction and whistle-blower protection) be added. Document Destruction Policy CMF acknowledges its responsibility to preserve information relating to litigation, audits and investigations. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of July 30, 2002, makes it a crime to alter, cover up falsify, or destroy any document to prevent its use in an official proceeding. Failure on the part of employees to follow this policy can result in possible civil and criminal sanctions against CMF and its employees and possible disciplinary action against responsible individuals (up to and including termination of employment). Each employee has an obligation to contact the Vice President of Finance & Administration of a potential or actual litigation, external audit, investigation or similar proceeding involving CMF that may have an impact as well on the approved records retention schedule. Whistle-Blower/Code of Conduct Policy In keeping with the policy of maintaining the highest standards of conduct and ethics CMF will investigate any suspected fraudulent or dishonest use or misuse ofCMF' s resources or property by staff, board members, consultants or volunteers. CMF is committed to maintaining the highest standards of conduct and ethical behavior and promotes a working environment that values respect, faimess and integrity. All staff, board members and volunteers shall act with honesty, integrity and openness in all their dealings as representatives for the organization. Failure to follow these standards will result in �disciplinary action including possible termination of employment, dismissal from one's board or volunteer duties and possible civil or criminal prosecution if warranted. Staff, board members, consultants and volunteers are encouraged to report suspected fraudulent or dishonest conduct (i.e. to act as "whistle-blower"), pursuant to the procedures set forth below. Reporting A person's concerns about possible fraudulent or dishonest use or misuse of resources or property should be reported to his or her supervisor or, if suspected by a volunteer, to the staff member supporting the volunteer's work If for any reason a person finds it difficult to report his or her concerns to a supervisor or staff member supporting the volunteer's work, the person may report the concerns directly to the Chair of the CMF Board of Trustees or Audit & Finance Committee, Vice President of F inance & Administration, Chief Operating Officer or the President. Alternately, to facilitate reporting of suspected v iolations where the reporter wishes to remain anonymous, a written statement may be submitted to one of the individuals listed above. Definitions Baseless Allegations: Allegations made with reckless disregard for their truth or falsity. People making such allegations may be subj ect to disciplinary action by CMF, and/or legal claims by individuals accused of such conduct. Fraudulent or Dishonest Conduct: A deliberate act or failure to act with the intention of obtaining an unauthorized benefit. Examples of such conduct include, but are not limited to: forgery or alteration of documents; unauthorized alteration or manipulation of computer files; fraudulent financial reporting; pursuit of a benefit or advantage in violation ofCMF's Conflict ofInterest Policy; misappropriation or misuse of CMF resources, such as funds, supplies, or other assets; authorizing or receiving compensation for goods not received or services not performed; and authorizing or receiving compensation for hours not worked Whistle-Blower: An employee, consultant or volunteer who infonns a supervisor, the Vice President of Finance & Administration, Chief Operating Officer, President or Chair of the Board of Tmstees or Audit & Finance Committee about an activity relating to CMF which that person believes to be fraudu lent or dishonest. 2 �Rights and Responsibilities Supervisors Supervisors are required to report suspected fraudulent or dishonest conduct to the Vice President of Finance & Administration, Chief Operating Officer or the President. Reasonable care should be taken in dealing with suspected misconduct to avoid: baseless allegations; premature notice to persons suspected of misconduct and/or disclosure of suspected misconduct to others not involved with the investigation; and violations of a person's rights under law Due to the important yet sensitive nature of the suspected violations, effective professional follow-up is critical. Supervisors, while appropriately concerned about "getting to the bottom" of such issues, should not in any circumstances perfonn any investigative or other follow up steps on their own. Accordingly, a supervisor who becomes aware of suspected misconduct: should not contact the person suspected to further investigate the matter or demand restitution. should not discuss the case with attorneys, the media or anyone other than the Vice President of Finance & Administration, Chief Operating Officer, President or Chair ofthe Board of Trustees or Audit & Finance Committee • should not report the case to an authorized law enforcement officer without first discussing the case with the Vice President of Finance & Administration, Chief Operating Officer, President or Chair of the Board of Trustees or Audit & Finance Committee. Investigation All relevant matters, including suspected but unproved matters, will be reviewed and analyzed, with documentation of the receipt, retention, investigation and treatment of the complaint. Appropriate corrective action will be taken, if necessary, and findings will be communicated back to the reporting person and his or her supervisor. Investigations may warrant investigation by an independent person such as auditors and/or attorneys. Whistle-Blower Protection CMF will protect whistle-blowers as defined below. CMF will use its best efforts to protect whistle-blowers against retaliation. Whistle-blowing complaints will be handled with sensitivity, discretion and confidentiality to the extent allowed by the circumstances and the law. Generally this means that whistle-blower complaints will only be shared with those who have a need to know so that CMF can conduct an effective investigation, determine w hat action to take based on the results of any such investigation, and 3 �in appropriate cases, with law enforcement personnel. (Should disciplinary or legal action be taken against a person or persons as a result of a whistle-blower complaint, such persons may also have right to know the identity of the whistleblower.) Employees, consultants and volunteers of CMF may not retaliate against a whistle-blower for infomling management about an activity which that person believes to be fraudulent or dishonest with the intent or effect of adversely affecting the tenns or conditions of the whistle-blower's employment, including but not linlited to, threats of physical harm, loss of job, punitive work assignments, or impact on salary or fees. Whistle-blowers who believe that they have been retaliated against may file a written complaint with the Vice President of Finance & Administration, Chief Operating Officer, President or Chair of the Board of Trustees or Audit & Finance Committee. Any complaint of retaliation will be promptly investigated and appropriate corrective measures taken if allegations of retaliation are substantiated.

Twenty (20) did not pay their 2003 dues, and senior management is working to determine those we should drop from membership. A second reminder letter was sent to 8 1 grantmakers in mid-September, resulting in 21 additional renewals to date. CMF membership stands at 398. The following chart summarizes the current membership composition: Private: 226 Family Foundations Independent Foundations 166 60 Foundations Affiliates Donor-Advised Funds Supporting Organization 55 32 3 1 Foundations Giving Programs 28 30 Community: 91 Corporate: 58 Public: Foundations Donor-Advised Funds Out-of-State Associate: Private Foundations Totals: 19 17 2 4 4 398 398 �II. Feedback and Experience One small family foundation member, whose dues went from $150 to $300, is concerned because dues now constitute 12% of their $2,500 annual grantmaking. Another calculation shows their dues as a percentage of assets of $50,000 at .06. However, iftheir assets were $10 million the assessment would be .03%. They have yet to renew, and may set up a donor-advised fund in their local community foundation. Another member wrote of a tight expense budget and the need to make tough decisions with limited resources. Only thirteen (13) members have underpaid their dues, ranging from $100 to $1,900. We invited members to take two years to reach the new dues level, so do not find these numbers of concern, and are dealing with each on an individual basis. III. New Category- Non Member In order to help increase and promote philanthropy in Michigan, staff has recommended a new category for participation in CMF - Corporate Giving Program-Individual Consultant Service (Definition & Criteria attached). Upon review the Committee has endorsed the concept, however making it clear that this is not a membership category. Individuals are defined as lawyers, accountants and financial planners to the wealthy, who do not have an individual or corporate foundation. The goal is to bring the "gatekeepers to philanthropy" closer to CMF, to educate them and in turn help them better serve their clients who may be creating foundations or donor advised funds at community foundations. Any individual consultant responding to this opportunity will not be offered membership status, and therefore, will not have voting privileges. The annual fee of $500 would cover the basic cost per organization- calculated at $495 by David Lindberg. �COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS Criteria for Associate Partners: Individual in Consulta nt Service Definition: A n indh•idual in a consulta nt service has a profit-making organization or is employed at a profitma king compa ny, such as law firm , financial ser vices or accounting agency and is involved in charitable giving.

Martin Taylor, Chair, and Members of the Board of Trustees From: Russell G. Mawby, Chair, National Steering Committee Kathy Agard, Executive Director Re: Learning to Give Progress Report On behalf of the National Steering Committee for Learning to Give (LTG), we are pleased to present the following resolutions for your consideration and support. We believe the proposed action is the appropriate step in what we hope will become a national organization and philanthropy education movement. RESOLVED that the Learning to Give Initiative become a supporting organization of the Council of Michigan Foundations with appropriate transfer of grants and contractual obligation as reviewed by legal counsel and approved by current funders of the Initiative. RESOLVED further that the following individuals be appointed as founding Trustees for the terms as designated, with the bylaws designating that the president of the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) shall serve as the common trustee to CMF: One vear Dorothy A. Johnson, trustee, W.K. Kellogg Foundation Robert S. Collier, president, Council of Michigan Foundations Two years C. David Campbell, president, McGregor Fund Julie F. Cummings, trustee, The Max M. and Marjorie S. Fisher Foundation, Community foundation for Southeastern Michigan, Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties Mark Murrray, president, Grand Valley State University Three years James A. Kelly, founding president, National Board for Professional Teaching Standards Rick Little, president, Imaginenations Background We are delighted to share that Dottie Johnson and Jim Kelly have agreed to serve as CoChairs of this new Board. The fow1ding Board, provided that you approve of this action, w ill have its organizing meeting this afternoon, November 3'd to approve: bylaws, submission of a Form 1023 to the IRS and a 16 month budget for the period December 1, 2004 to March 31 , 2006. The proposed bylaws that will be reviewed by CMF Legal Counsel Duane Tarnacki, who created CMF's two other supporting organizations, will allow for a Board of up to 21 and an Executive Committee of 5. The Founding Board of Trustees will seek additional Trustees from the corporate, and nonprofit sector outside of Michigan as well as from diverse communities, who can advance the national mission of LTG. �Learning to Give October 25, 2004 Page 2 It has been a busy summer since we last met with you in June. Please note the editorial from the Kalamazoo Gazette that follows this report and resulted from the successful launch of Learning to Give at Grand Valley State University in June. Here are some highlights of what has led to the recommendation being presented today. During the spring and summer of 2004, LTG received consultation from lEG related to corporate sponsorship, the National Council for Nonprofit Enterprise related to sustainability, and Brigandi and Associates related to attracting corporate sponsorship. Each of the consultants recommended that LTG develop an identity separate from CMF. After discussion by small planning groups over the summer, the LTG Steering Committee approved this resolution for the CMF Board's consideration. Reasons for Separating LTG from CMF a. CMF is Michigan--focused, LTG desires to have national and eventually international scale b. CMF's Michigan base and membership base makes it difficult to attract national level and corporate based volunteer leadership c. CMF is a trade association of grantmakers--individual donors, and foundations may have some hesitation in funding CMF for LTG d. Corporate sponsors seek to link their brand with a nationally known philanthropic brand-LTG rather than CMF should be the brand partner. Reasons for Keeping LTG connected to CMF a. LTG has no administrative support structure at this time (bookkeeping, personnel, related insurance, auditing etc). Nor rloes f ,TG have the financial support to hire these serv1ces b. LTG has only a fledgling fund-raising history with individual donors, and only a fledgling start at fee for service income strategies. c. LTG has no formal legal or governance structure, this needs to be developed over time, the volunteer leadership is advisory d. LTG is uniquely positioned within the philanthropic-grantmaking world, giving it an unusual strategic setting. Before abandoning this unique position, more strategic thinking is required. The two potential new homes for LTG: in education, or as a separate nonprofit, are fields crowded with highly mature organizations. LTG will need to be prepared to compete for resources within either of these domains prior to becoming independent. e. CMF can help LTG mitigate some of its weaknesses in attracting corporate sponsorship by sharing benefits: exposure in CMF publications, educational seminars, and on the CMF web-site. f. LTG has explored other alternative homes during the past five years, and has developed a set of criteria for evaluating potential larger organizational venues. In each case explored, the host institution would only be interested if LTG brought self-sufficient resources with the program--offering no unique financial advantage. Unique Features ofa Supporting Organization Structure a. LTG can develop a national level governance structure with its own 501 c3 supporting organization status b. LTG will have its own financial books, and separate audit. Financial and other systems w ill become more easily dis-engaged from CMF's systems in the future, if desired. c. Donors and revenue: individuals, and foundation gifts; corporate sponsorship, and sales; and other agreements will be with LTG as a legal entity, rather than to CMF for LTG �Learning to Give October 25, 2004 Page 3 d. Major gifts from single private foundation sources could be received by LTG without the problem of"tipping" into private foundation status e. CMF has experience in developing, managing, and spinning-off philanthropic functions using this model f. This option provides a mid-step between LTG 's current status as a project of CMF, and full organizational independence g. If LTG is not financially viable, CMF's Board would still have final authority over, and responsibility for, disposition of the assets . �Learning to Give October 25, 2004 Page 4 Learning to Give Progress Report-Fan 2004 Highlights Planning: The past five months have focused on gathering strategic information and discussing future directions for Learning to Give. In June, two reports were received from national consulting firms: lEG, a firm specializing in corporate sponsorship, and the National Council for Nonprofit Enterprise (NCNE), a firm specializing in issues of non-profit sustainability through earned income. During July, August and September, these reports were discussed in small groups with the Steering Committee, LTG staff/consultants, and Teachers. In addition, the reports were reviewed by a corporate marketing director who arranged for a Chicago marketing firmBrigandi and Associates to help LTG develop a marketing plan, on a pro-bono basis. A full-time temporary employee, Derrick Feldmann, has been hired to assist in the web-site development project and also in the research needed to support the proposals for corporate sponsorship. Derrick is a recent graduate of the Center on Philanthropy and has been the graduate student for Learning to Give-Indiana. Special Projects: Learning to Give's ability to develop philanthropy education materials, lessons, and support has been discovered and a number of partnership opportunities have emergect The projects include: lesson plans for the Shalom Street museum in Detroit, teacher guides for the "Profiles" of Battle Creek philanthropists, lesson plans supporting IMAX theater movies, movie ads (extending LTG's reach by 1 million impressions per year), and 2"d grade and 9111 grade lesson plans in partnership with Junior Achievement for the W.K. Kellogg Foundation th . 75 anm versary. In addition, the Glenn Institute at Westminster Schools in Atlanta, has contacted LTG to work in conjunction with I.U. on a "high end" junior year in high school comprehensive cun·iculum on philanthropy (video, lessons, resource materials) that can be packaged and sold. Westminster is interested in working with LTG in developing this package for private independent schools. Web-site Enhancements: The LTG web-site has been undergoing major background revision, foreground editing, and preparation for the addition of "rooms" extending the resources to new audiences. The lesson plans have been moved from word documents to database documents, allowing us to add multiple state standards to the same lesson plan. A ll of the lessons have been re-coded to the standards for the State of Indiana, a separate LTGIndiana home page resides within the LTG web-site, and new lessons have been placed that have both Indiana and Michigan standards. A web-site design revision is undetway. New features under construction are: • Online self-paced tutorial for educators (ten-30 minute sessions) • Youth worker room-1 6 LTG units have been rewritten into activities suitable for youth workers �Learning to Give October 25, 2004 Page 5 • • • • Religious instructor room-briefing papers and audio on various religious traditions and philanthropy are being developed Parent/caregiver room-the family foundation book has been redrafted for non-foundation families Community room-due later in 2005 Student rooms-due in 2006 In addition, the Fetzer Institute is underwriting the cost of moving their "Generosity of the Spirit" philanthropy materials to the LTG Web-site: 200 myths, legends and stories of generosity from around the world; a discussion guide for groups to pursue deeper understanding of philanthropy; and text of donor interviews. LTG will write lessons to support the stories during summer 2005. Public Relations: Initial efforts to increase public visibility for LTG are successful. The stories include the launching of the LTG-Michigan partnership with GVSU with a luncheon sponsored by the President of GVSU and his wife at the start of the LTG summer institute; articles and editorials across Michigan as a result of the Booth newspaper reporting on LTG; use of LTG as "responders" to other stories on service-learning; and national coverage in Education Week, the Council on Foundations e-newsletter, and a journal article in Principal Leadership, a publication of the National Association of Secondary School Principals. LTG has retained Mike Gallagher as a consultant on writing/placing articles in the national education, service-learning, youth development, and philanthropy fields. Mike also works as an editorial consultant to CMF. University Partnerships: LTG-Indiana: the Indiana partners have hired a new full-time staff person, Kathy Matthies. Kathy brings experience as a classroom teacher, in working within the university, and in project management. Five new partner schools and a pre-school YMCA program (the first LTG schools in Indiana) have been recruited and teachers are currently being oriented to LTG. A small, but successful, summer institute was held in June, led by Indiana teachers, and work is underway to begin integrating philanthropy education into the professional development "life cycle" of teachers. LTG' s African-American posters were distributed to over 300 attendees at the Indiana Center"s African-American Philanthropy's Symposium in August. LTG-Michigan: the GVSU College of Education partners have recruited and are providing inservice professional development to nine new LTG schools in western Michigan. The second workshop for approximately 200 student teachers was held in September. Research on the integration of philanthropy education into the undergraduate Foundations of Education course is underway.
