State of Michigan Foundation Liaison
Goal - To support an executive staff position within the Governor's
office that would focus on opportunities to connect the common
interests of grantmakers and state government.
Background
Governor Granholm and a group of foundation leaders have expressed interest in the
possibility of creating and supporting an executive staff position (Foundation Liaison)
within the Governor's office that would focus on opportunities to connect the common
interests of grantmakers and state government.
For a Foundation Liaison to be successful, the supporting foundation community and the
Governor's office must agree upon the expectations and limitations of the position. This
document provides the basis for a Memorandum of Understanding that will include:
specific objectives, how the position would function in state government, how the
position would relate to the grantmaking cotmnunity both through the Council of
Michigan Foundations (CMF) and directly, and a plan for how the position would
initially be funded by foundations and replaced totally with public support by the start of
year four of the Granholm Administration.
It is recognized that both the State budget and the endowed assets of found ations have
been adversely affected by the economy and weak stock market performance over the
past three years. As a result many foundations have been forced to reduce their giving
levels for 2003 in order to preserve the original values of donor gifts (principal).
Therefore, while opportunities may be developed for funding partnerships between
foundations and state government, the Foundation Liaison is not being presented as a
fundraising position for State Government.
This position builds on the many years of close cooperation between the foundation
community and previous Governors in strengthening the nonprofit sector and the
environment for giving and volunteering in Michigan. For exan1ple, the foundation
community worked closely with Governor George Romney, while he was Governor and
in later years, in supporting development of a network of volunteer centers- now known
as Volunteer Centers of Michigan. In the early 1980s, at a time when the State's
w1employment was in double digits, the foundation community and Governor
Blanchard's administration collaborated on development of the Michigan Investment
Fund.
Throughout the 1990s the foundation community has worked with Governor Engler and
the Legislature on a number of collaborations including formation of the Michigan
Community Service Commission and partnering on its projects such as the Annual
Governor's Awards on Volunteerism, creation of endowed community foundations
covering all 83 counties with the help of a permanent tax credit, and distribution of
tobacco settlement funds through these community foundations. Most recently the
Foundation conununity has worked with the Michigan Community Services Commission

Page 2

and Michigan Nonprofit Association to respond to the Governor and Legislature's
support for endowing Connect Michigan Alliance - an innovative hub to promote and
support volunteering. These examples have made Michigan a national model for publicprivate partnerships and a strong nonprofit sector.
Objectives

The following four objectives provide a starting point for framing the Memorandum of
Understanding.
1. Increasing state officials' understanding of philanthropy and the potential

roles it can play in partnership witb state government

Because of their years of grantmaking experience, some foundation tmstees and staff
represent a tremendous source of knowledge. However, evaluation findings that could
inform state government are often left on the shelf or remain with institutions that do not
have the capacity or opportunity to communicate with the appropriate state executive
branch officials or members of the legislature. The Liaison would work with the
Governor's staff, appropriate state agencies and targeted members of the legislature to
increase the understanding of the potential roles philanthropy can play with Michigan ' s
public sector. In addition, the Liaison would work with the President and Tmstees of the
Council of Michigan Foundations as appropriate in its work with the Executive Branch
and Legislature as summarized below in furthering relationships with foundations.
2. Supporting models that improve the efficiency and/or effectiveness of state
government

Foundations are in a unique position to work with both nonprofit organizations and
government entities on program models that seek to better serve the public and specific
target populations. Foundations could support evaluation of such programs that inform
state policy and provide an ongoing opportunity for continuous improvement in the
operation of state-mn programs. The Liaison would provide information and technical
support to state officials as they develop relationships with state and national funders for
program models that can support the Governor's strategic policy priorities. Because State
government is often looking for partners for program implementation to respond to
matching fund requirements of federal grant initiatives, the Liaison can develop a process
for communicating these opportunities to funders.
3. Responding to opportunities for new local and regional public private
partnerships that better serve populations in the implementation of
government programs

Because many local and regional foundations have been involved in their communities
for periods ranging from 75 to 10 years, they are a resource to assist state government on
how programs are locally implemented. Some of the local and regional public-private
partnerships that already exist could be effective models for implementation of the
Governor' s policy priorities. The Liaison would identify such models as well as their
2

Page 3

private partners that may be wi lling to considler support that would enhance or make more
efficient use of state and state administered funds in local communities.

4. Attracting new national grants and federal dollars to Michigan
There are national private foundations that could be a source of new resources for efforts
important to our state. There are also a number of federal grants that Michigan could
apply for if the correct public/private relationships are created. The Liaison would assist
the nonprofit community, private foundations, and appropriate state departments to attract
these new dollars to our state.

Position Design
Serving at the pleasure of the Governor and reporting directly to the Governor, the
Liaison should be staffed by a person with a working knowledge of both philanthropy
and state government- able to create the appropriate relationships with the foundation
community and with the departments of state government. It will be important for the
Liaison to be seen as a credible member of the Administration in order for this person to
be able to work with and through the existing departments of state government, to
w1derstand the expectations and desires of those departments, and to communicate those
with specific foundations on partnership opportwlities. The Liaison must work to manage
the expectations of both members of state government and the foundation community at a
time of fiscal restraint and limitations.

Limitations - It will be important that state government and the foundation community
agree on what this position cannot do. The Liaison should not be used to replace existing
government dollars or to fund "foundations" or "trusts" that are run by or for state
government. It should not be seen as a development office for state government or as a
gatekeeper to state government.
Funding the Liaison
It will be important to balance the funding needs of the Liaison with the need to
institutionalize this position within state government before the end of the Governor's
first term. It is proposed that foundations would provide three years of funding: 100% in
years one and two, and 50% in year three. In the fourth year, state government would be
expected to assume all costs for the Liaison.
The budget supported by the foundations would include the salary and benefits cost for
the Liaison and an Administrative Assistant, and modest travel expenses. It is estimated
that the personnel and travel costs could be as much as $250,000 a year, or $625,000 over
the three year period. The state is expected to cover needed office expenses, such as
phone and postage, from the outset.
A number of foundations have expressed interest in participating in this special
partnership. Two foundations, The Hudson-Webber Foundation and the Kellogg
Foundation, have already verbally pledged a total of $150,000. It is anticipated that the
3

remaining costs for year one could be raised in the first quarter of2003, and the
remaining funds necessary for years two and three could be committed by the end of
2003. It is recognized that interested foundations will need to receive formal proposals
and would proceed within their normal grantmaking cycles.
Role of the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF)
The Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF), a nonprofit membership association of
more than 400 grantmakers, has agreed to serve as the fiduciary agent for foundation
grants that would fund the Liaison. CMF would be the grantee for any grants for the
Liaison and would either distribute the funds to state government to pay for related
expenses or enter into independent consulting contracts jointly with the State for the two
positions being considered. CMF would form an Advisory Committee of up to five
foundation representatives to meet at least annually with the Liaison and other targeted
Governor' s staff to review progress in meeting the objectives identified above.
CMF has a 30 year relationship with state government and is viewed as a nonpartisan,
neutral partner. CMF staff will continue to work with the Governor, Governor's staff,
Attorney General and Legislature on regulatory issues affecting philanthropy, such as the
permanent community foundation tax credit. Existing CMF partnerships with state
government include: the Tobacco Settlement Partnership through the Michigan
Community Services Commission; the Emergency Homelessness Prevention Project with
MSHDA; the Michigan IDA Partnership with FIA; and the Michigan AIDS Fund with
the Department of Community Health.

In addition, CMF has an active public policy committee that has identified six specific
issues for attention by grantmakers: K-12 school reform, access to health care; welfare
reform; workforce preparedness and land use. The Liaison would work with the Public
Policy Committee but not be involved in lobbying matters affecting philanthropy. In
addition, the Liaison would work closely with CMF staff to use as appropriate existing
communication tools with grantmakers.

Council of
Michigan
Foundations

Serving grantmakers. Advancing giving.

Date:

February 10, 2003

Memo to:

CMF Board of Trustees

From:

David R. Lindberg

RE:

CMF &amp; Supporting Organizations November 30, 2002 Financial Statements

RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations' and Support Organizations'
November 30, 2002 internal financial report, as recommended by the CMF Audit &amp;
Finance Committee, be accepted.
Enclosed is the financial report as of November 30, 2002. Management would like to
highlight two items in the attached report.
At the September 29, 2002 board meeting the CMF Board of Trustees approved the
establishment of the Margaret Riecker Leadership Fund. This fund was established to honor
the leadership Ranny Riecker provided in her 26 years as trustee and twice Chair ofCMF.
The purpose of this fund is to recognize innovative leadership that increases, enhances and
improves philanthropy in the state of Michigan. To date we have received pledges totaling
$1,015,000.
For the year ending March 31, 2003 a surplus of $72,000 has been projected for Member
Services, which includes both the CMF Core Operations and the Community Foundation
Endowment Fund.

Member Services
Note 1: Member Contributions
While overall dues from existing members has remained relatively constant we expect
contributions for 2002-03 to be $32,000 below budget for the following reasons.
Revenue from new members for last half of 2001 -02 less than budget
Revenue from new members for 2002-03 less than budget

$18,000
14,000

The projected membership count at 3-31-03 is 400 versus a budget of 458.
Membership at 1-7-03
Projected loss 1-8-03 to 3-3 1-03
Balance 3-31-03

�Note 2: Conference Income &amp; Expenses
The variance from budget is due to meal charges not being included in the registration fees
for the Annual Conference on Mackinac Island. Registrants purchased tickets for meals
directly from the Grand Hotel. The following meetings have added to the overall surplus for
2002-03.

Note 3: Publication Income
The projected variance from budget is due to sales of the 13th Edition of the Michigan
Foundation Directory being less than budgeted. Over the last couple of editions we have seen
a decrease in demand for the print version and have scaled back copies from 2,500 for the
1i11 Edition, to 1,500 for the l3 1h Edition.

Endowment Funds
Overall the endowment fund expenditures are projected to remain below budget for 2002-03.

Note 4: Other Grants- Riecker Leadership Fund
To date payments totaling $225,000 have been received towards pledges totaling $1 ,015,000.

Note 5: Investment Income
Investment income for the endowment funds, which are invested 70% stocks and 30% bonds,
is budgeted at $0 for the year ending March 31, 2003.

Russell G. Mawby Fund
To date has supported the following items
Learning to Give Washington fundraising efforts
Giving &amp; Volunteering publication
Establishing Charitable Foundation publication
Support for members reception 6-13-02
Sponsorships (MNA Non-Profit Day, etc.)

Re:

CMF 12-31-02 Investment Report

RESOLVED that the December 31, 2002 Investment Report as reviewed by the
Investment Committee, be accepted.
On February 11, 2003 the Investment Commiittee will meet to review the enclosed repmt.
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 (MAF), meets to review the investment performance for the
operating and permanent endowment funds. The information contained in this section
will be reviewed by the Investment Committee on February 11, 2003 .
At the November 15, 2002, Investment Committee meeting, after presentations by both
Bank One and Comerica, the committee approved a change in the asset allocation mix to
include the following asset classes.
Munder REIT Fund
Bank High Yield Bond Composite Fund

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.

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 Fixed Income
Asset Allocation Report
The Investment Committee has approved an asset allocation re-balancing policy that
instructs the CMF V.P. offinance 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 due to 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

One of the benchmarks the Investment Committee has been tracking over the last couple
of years is the Cambridge Associates, Inc. pool of colleges, universities, and foundations.

Since the release of this quarterly report typically lags the end of our quarter by two to
three months, the latest comparative numbers available are September 30, 2002.

Re:

3 1st Annual Conference Report

In January 2003, work commenced on planning for the 31st CMF Annual Conference at the
Amway Grand Hotel in Grand Rapids. The Conference will begin on Monday, November 10
and conclude on Wednesday, November 12, 2003.
Following is a quick overview of the history of the Annual Conference and the draft program
for the 2003 Conference. RSVPs are currently being returned by members invited to serve on
the Program Committee. To date, those responses have been very positive. As usual, the
Committee will include members from across the state representing the range of foundations
that comprise CMF's membership. A list of those invited to serve on the Committee is
attached.

Participation: Historical &amp; 2003 Projection
CMF introduced its annual conference in 1983. Over time, participation has grown from less
than 50 individuals to 1,000 ( 1999 and 2000 in Grand Rapids &amp; Traverse City respectively).
In 2001 , attendance declined due to the recent events of September 11 (688 in Detroit at 328
full, 179 partial, 181 complementary). The off the beaten path location and soft economy kept
participation at similar levels in 2002 (645 in Mackinac Island at 471 full, 43 partial, 131
complementary). The 2003 conference projection assumes that a strong program, popular
location, access for partial registrants to attend special evening events and keynote sessions, as
well as the focus on foundation accountability will draw 800 participants to Grand Rapids
(520 full, 150 partial, and 130 complementary.)
Program Design
The 31st Annual Conference will include 3 plenary sessions, 8 mini-plenaries, 24 concurrent
1
sessions, and 6 site visits. Based on positive responses from participants at the 30 h Annual
Conference on Mackinac Island, the core competency and public policy issue session tracks
introduced in 2002 will be repeated in 2003. In response to some concerns raised about the
absence of"foundation type" tracks, half-day pre-conference workshops will be offered on
Monday morning for community foundations and for corporate grantmakers. The Family
Foundation Retreat will be held the weekend immediately prior to the Annual Conference
providing a special opportunity for those members.
In addition to the sessions noted above, the Conference will also offer: Breakfast Roundtable
discussions, Dr. Is In consultations on topics rangnng from legal to governance, and an extended
seminar for experienced grantmakers.

Memo to:

CMF Board of Trustees

From:

Dav id R. Lindberg

RE:

CMF 2003-04 Budget

RESOLVED that the 2003-04 Budget, as recommended by the CMF Executive and
Audit &amp; Finance Committees, be approved.
On January 23, 2003 both the Executive Committee and Audit &amp; Finance Committee
reviewed the enclosed budget and recommended their approval to the Board of Trustees.
Both committees want to highlight the fact that the two sources of income supporting the
Member Services budget are tentative for fiscal year starting April 1, 2003 . The committees
feel it is critical to move forward with the dues increase scheduled for April 1, 2004, to
replace this source of funding.
Tobacco Settlement
KYIP Admin :fees

$60,000
$44,000

In reviewing the attached Member Services budget it should be noted the budget has
increased from 2002-03 due to the following reasons:
•

•
•

Attendance at the November 2003 Annual Conference is expected to increase from
650 for Mackinac Island to 800, which should increase revenue and expenses by
$297,000. Also the registration fees for 2003 conference will once again include meal
costs. On Mackinac Island attendees purchased meal tickets directly from the Grand
Hotel.
Expanded educational events for members, $82,000
2.75% wage increase, 27% health insurance increase

Member Services
Revenue
Note 1: Member Contributions
In projecting dues for 2003-04 we have estimated members' assets to decrease by 8% for the

one-year ending 12-31 -02. With annual dues based on the asset levels of our members, dues
from existing members have been projected to decrease by $30,000 for 2003-04.
At the request of the Finance Committee management reviewed the dues calculation using
the Lipper bench mark calculation of -10.67% for the one year ended 12-31-02, based on the
current 70-30 asset allocation mix for the CMF Endowment Funds. This review indicates a
possible further reduction of $5,500 from the amount presented in the budget.
For 2003-04 a net gain of 5 new members is projected, calculated as follows.
New - 15 with assets averaging $500,000, dues of $360 each
Dropped - 10 with dues averaging $360 each

$5,400
(3,600)

Note 2: Additional Member Contributions

Contributions are anticipated to remain constant for 2003-04.
Note 3: Other Grants

In December 2002 CMF signed the latest Tobacco Settlement contract with the State of
Michigan totaling $4,000,000, for calendar year 2003. The State has since notified CMF the
contract will likely be reduced to $2,000,000 as one of their budget tightening moves, with
$100,000 for administrative support, $50,000 for evaluation and $1,850,000 being distributed
to Michigan Community Foundations. $60,000 of the Tobacco Settlement administrative
dollars will be used to support the CMF Member Services budget for 2003-04. Should this
contract with the State not be renewed; this funding source would be replaced by the dues
increase scheduled for April1, 2004.
If the State cancels the current 2003 contract CMF will request that a portion of the $182,000
in accumulated interest earnings from the Tobacco Settlement funds be used to fund ongoing
staff support to this project.

Note 4: Spendable Income- Community Foundation Endowment Fund
The Community Foundation Endowment Fund was established using the interest earnings,
starting in 1995, from the grant dollars CMF received on the W.K Kellogg Foundation Youth
Challenge. Income available for spending, which totals $297,000 for 2003-04, is based on a
20 quarter rolling average at a 5% rate. This endowment fund supports a FTE equivalent of 4
staff devoted to community foundation programming activities, plus associated supplies,
telephone and other office related expenses.
Note 5: Conference &amp; Meetings
$297,000 of the increase is due to projected attendance for the November 2003 Annual
Conference of 800, versus 650 for Mackinac Jsland. The November 2003 conference should
generate a surplus of$77,000. Also included in this increase are the meal costs that will once
again be included in the registration fees for 2003. On Mackinac Island attendees purchased
tickets directly from the hotel which resulted in a lower registration fee.
The remaining increase is due to tl1e following educational opportunities that are new for
2003-04 or have been expanded from the previous year.

Part of the long-term funding plan is to bring the annual conference registration fees in line
with other conferences around the country of similar size. The first year of the two-year
phase in period raised full registration fees by $75. The second year (2003-04) increase will
again be another $75 to $575.

Note 6: Publications &amp; Library Services
The decrease from the prior year is due to lower sales from the 13th Edition of the Michigan
Foundation Directory, which was released in November 2002. The Directory is printed every
two years.
13th Edition - Directory

$33,000

Note 7: Other Income/Consulting
CMF is receiving 50 basis points (.5%) to administer the KYIP Endowment Fund that was set
up as a donor advised fund by Kellogg for the purpose of establishing permanent endowment
funds at three KYIP sites located in Michigan. Eventually this money will be transferred to
the three KYIP sites once they have investment committees in place to oversee the
management of those funds. This grant was awarded to MCFV and therefore is included in
the Michigan Community Foundations' Ventures balance sheet.
The budget also reflects test marketing a limited menu of services to financial advisors.

Mise Retreats, staff searches, advertising, etc_
Services to Financial Advisors

$44,000

Note 8: Investment Income
Investment income is budgeted to remain relatively modest due to the low interest earnings
on the operating funds, which are currently near 1%.

Expenses
Note 9: Wages

An overall wage increase of 2.75% has been budgeted for 2003-04, which is in line with
anticipated increases by other associations around the country. The CPI for the 12 months
ending 12-31-02 is 2.43%.
Under our current policy full-time employees who do not participate in the CMF provided
health insurance coverage are eligible to be reimbursed up to $1,000 in out-of-pocket medical
expenses. This amount has remained constant since April 1, 2000, while over this same time
period health insurance rates have increased at 42%. At the January 23, 2003 Executive
Committee meeting management's recommendation to increase this benefit to $1 ,500,
keeping the percentage increase in line with the health care premium increases, was
approved.
The increase from the prior year is primarily due to the following items:
2.75% wage increase
27% increase health insurance
Filling support position in August 2002
Annuity Plan portion of wage increase

$26,000
20,000
15,000
2,600

Note 10: Occupancy

The increase from the prior year is due to a portion (5 months) of the lease costs for the
Southeastern Michigan office for 2002-03 being covered by the funding received to support
the establishment ofthis office. Funding for this office is now fully absorbed into the
Member Services 2003-04 Budget.
Note 11: Equipment &amp; Furniture

The decrease from the prior year is due to the anticipated purchase of a new copier in late
2002-03.

Memo to:

CMF Board of Trustees

From:

Robert S. Collier

RE:

Authorizing Amendments to the CMF 403(b) Plan

RESOLVED that the CMF Chair and President be authorized to approve amendments
to the CMF 403(b) Plan that may be necessary from time to time to keep the plan in
compliance with the latest regulatory requirements and that will not have a financial
impact on the organization.

Background
Occasionally CMF receives notification from Mutual of America, our 403(b) Thrift Plan
provider, that certain provisions in the plan should be amended to keep the plan in
compliance with the latest Federal laws. In the past each amendment required a vote of the
CMF Executive Committee enact the change. Legal counsel, Clark Hill, has recommended a
blanket resolution be passed by the CMF Board of Trustees authorizing the Chair and
President to approve changes on behalf of the Board that do not have a financia l impact on
CMF.
The latest notification came from Mutual of America in December 2002 advising us to adopt
a plan amendment to comply with certain provisions of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief
Reconciliation Act of2001 (EGTRRA).

MICHIGAN COMMUNITY
FOUNDATIONS' VENTURES (MCFV)
MCFV supports collaborative activities by community foundations
that will contribute to achieving economies of scale and growth in
assets. The MCFV Board of Trustees, chaired by Libby Cherin, president
and CEO, Fremont Area Community Foundation, provides oversight
to several initiatives primarily supported by grants from the Charles
Stewart Mort Foundation and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.
H ighlights include:
• The Community Foundation R &amp; D Incubator's "Tools for Giving"
marketing portfolio distributed to a national audience at the
Council on Foundations' 2003 Community Foundation
Conference. The four portfolios offer 85 marketing tools to
community foundations that have agreed to adopt national standards.
Regional Team-Up provided matching grants to teams
of community foundations for the development and

implementation of regional marketing strategies such as a
Bequest/Legacy Society Initiative in the Eastern region and
joint presentations by John Brown, a planned giving expert, in
the Thumb area. Lessons learned are being shared through the
multi-state Community Foundation Regional Marketing Initiative,
a two-year program involving communityfoundations in
Mary land, South Carolina and Iowa.
• The Communities of Color Task Force supported seven Michigan
community foundations working to expand and diversify their
donor bases within the African-American and Hispanic communities.
For more information about MCFV, please contact Donnell Mersereau,
director, community foundations, at dmersereau@cmif.org
or 616.842.7080.

it possible to provide a premier event.

�As Chairman of Union Bank, now part of Bank One, and of the Foremost Insurance Company, Edward Frey
and his wife Frances gave generously of their time and resources to make the greater Grand Rapids area a
better place to live. They helped to establish Junior Achievement and Grand Valley State University (GVSU)
and supported the arts, economic development, education, family, and health care, including Planned
Parenthood ofWestern Michigan.
In 1974, the Frey Foundation was established. After the Freys' passing in rg88 and 1989, their work
passed to their children, Mary Caroline (Twink), John, David and Ted. Each has been and continues today
to be involved through their own time, talent and resources in helping to find solutions that will make the
quality of life in their individual communities more equitable and rewarding.
Twink Frey is founder and chair of the Nokomis Foundation, a private women's foundation. In 2003,
she received the national Women's Funding Network's Changing the Face of Philanthropy award.
Founding Chair of the Frey Foundation, Twink is the creative, catalyzing force behind many Grand
Rapids organizations, including Gilda's Club, the Grand Rapids Women's History Council and the
Center for Women at Aquinas College.
John is active in many Charlevoix area organizations including the Charlevoix Community Foundation,
the Little Traverse Conservancy and the Charlevoix Area Hospital Development Council. A Trustee of
the Frey Foundation, his interests include international projects such as Earth University in Costa Rica.
The Economic Club of Grand Rapids honored David as its 2003 Business Person of the Year in part for
his leadership as co-chair of the Grand Action Committee . A past Chair of the Grand Rapids Community
Foundation, David chaired the Grand Design 2000 Committee responsible for the private sector's role in
GVSU's downtown campus. He chairs the Frey Foundation and is a trustee of the Gerald R. Ford Foundation,
Grand Rapids Art Museum Foundation and GVSU Foundation.
A founding trustee of the Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation, Ted is involved in the
Harbor Springs and Petoskey communities and serves as a director of the Grand Rapids Community
College Foundation and a Trustee of the Frey Foundation.
The Council of Michigan Foundations is grateful for the support of the Frey family members through
service on many committees and task forces, including the Board of Trustees of which Edward and Twink
served as members and from which John retires at this Annual Conference. Through their service
and philanthropy in our state, they have shared in our mission to increase, improve and enhance philanthropy
in Michigan. The Board of Trustees is honored to recognize the Frey family members as Honorary Chairs
of the 31st Annual Conference.

�Section II

Michigan Community Foundation Update

�------ - ----------------~---------------------------------------

Minimum Standards for Michigan Community Foundations
The community foundations of Michigan recognize that we live in an age in which
professions and fields of work are expected to have and to follow standards that promote
both accountability and the highest ethical behavior by all parties. Recent incidents in the
operations of national and regional nonprofit and philanthropic organizations have
pointed out the need for standards in the nonprofit sector. In addition, advisors to the
wealthy- lawyers, accountants, financial planners, etc. -who are vital partners in the
continued growth of the community foundation field, are all professions with standards.
Because we recognize our responsibility to our donors and our communities to have the
best possible philanthropic organizations to respond to the wishes of donors and the
needs of communities, the community foundations of Michigan have developed
minimum standards for our field in Michigan. We believe that the following minimum
standards will help assure donors and their advisors of consistent performance in the
operations of all community foundations in Michigan and contribute to the success of any
joint marketing and donor development efforts -both statewide and regionally. These
minimum standards are proposed in addition to the requirements of state and federal law
and are supported by the Community Foundations Principles and Best Practices adopted
by the Community Foundations Committee of the Council of Michigan Foundations. In
addition they have been designed to complement the development of national standards
by the Community Foundations Leadership Team of the Council on Foundations and it is
the expectation that Michigan community found!tions will also strive to meet national
standards adopted by the Council on Foundations.
Evidence of the implementation of these minimum standards has been adopted as a
requirement for participation in Michigan Community Foundation Ventures (MCFV), a
supporting organization of the Council of Michigan Foundations. The purpose of MCFV
is to support special collaborative initiatives of community foundations in Michigan
which will contribute to increased asset development, proactive grantmaking and
community leadership. It is the hope of the Board of Trustees of MCFV that every
community foundation will strive to implement these standards and seek assistance from
the Council of Michigan Foundations in doing so.
Community foundations with geographic affiliate funds should consult the attached
document, "Subset of Minimum Standards for Michigan Community Foundations
with Geographic Affiliate Funds," for the standards that apply specifically to those
funds.

�Governance:
The community foundation must:
Incorporate the words "community foundation" in the organization's public name.
Operate with a board approved mission statement, including language that
addresses the growth of "permanent endowment" funds from a wide range of
donors.
Adopt conflict of interest policies for board, staff and volunteers that cover all
aspects of foundation management.
Include in its bylaws and communicate to potential donors the community
foundation governing body's variance power by which it may modify any
restriction or condition on the distribution of assets.

Administration &amp; Finance:
The community foundation must:
Develop an asset base in which the total investment return for permanently
endowed funds is sufficient to support the basic operations of the foundation with:
o

o

Annual community grants (including scholarships, program related
investments, special projects, etc.) exceeding administrative expenses
within 5 years of the start of the Foundation.
Employment of at least one-half FTE paid staff.

Operate with an asset management program that includes:
o

o
o

Gift acceptance policies,
Criteria for establishing funds and fund agreements,
Investment policies, including asset allocation policies and a spending
policy based on no fewer than eight trailing quarters

Complete an annual audit by an outside independent public accountant. Qualified
opinions may be acceptable for this standard as determined on a case by case
basis.

�Asset Development:
The community foundation must:
Implement a three-year asset development plan that includes planned giving and
outreach to financial advisors, prospective and current donors, with progress
monitored annually by the Community Foundation Board.
Adopt and implement donor services guidelines and brochures (including a
statement of the community foundation governing board's variance power) that
are communicated to donors and publicize a statement of donor rights and
responsibilities.

Grantmaking:
The community foundation must:
Establish ongoing grantmaking guidelines, including foundation priorities,
application process and reporting requirements.

Convenor &amp; Leader
The community foundation must:
Implement and document strategies, consistent with the community foundation's
mission, to play a role as a collaborator/convenor in developing solutions to
important community issues

Communications
The community foundation must:
Practice full disclosure about the foundation's mission, activities (including
grantmaking and finances) through communications tools, such as an annual
report, newsletter and web site.

Albion Community Foundation

In 2001, the Albion Community Foundation made a three-year grant
commitment to support the start-up of Burnham Brook East, an Albion
satellite of the original facility located in Battle Creek.
The senior center will serve all Greater Albion area residents age 50 and
older, regardless of age, gender, race, religious preference, or economic
status. On-site activities will be held in a 4,000 square foot facility in
Albion that has been donated rent-free for the first three years of operation.
The site will include a lounge area, a large multi-purpose area, an
education/conference room, a health and fitness area, and a computer/
library area. Off-site activities are also being developed. Health services
and education will be a top priority of the senior wellness center. The
center will house a wellness clinic that will provide health screenings and
education; fitness assessments will be offered, and a variety of fitness
classes will be available. Several support groups will be developed to serve
the area's seniors and their families and caregivers.
Social programming, such as arts and crafts classes, book clubs, card clubs,
and bingo, will be offered at the center as well. There will be coordination
with local Albion theater and art programs to develop programming specific
to the community's seniors. In addition, an intergenerational after-school
program is being planned with local Albion schools.

The GRCF awarded a three-year, $120,000 grant to Home Repair Services
(HRS) to prevent homelessness due to mortgage foreclosures.
Home Repair Services recognized a shortage of programs aimed at
supporting low-income homeowners after they purchased a home.
Homeowners were often coming to HRS with a foreclosure notice at a point
when losing their home was imminent. This program provides counseling,
foreclosure assistance, budgeting, and financial management assistance to
homeowners that are facing mortgage foreclosure. While a number of
organizations provide pre-purchase counseling and assistance, HRS
provides the only program in Grand Rapids targeting families facing
foreclosure .
Last year alone, the program provided counseling and foreclosure
assistance services that prevented 69 families from losing their homes. That
represents 69 homes that were not boarded and sold at auction or vacant
and deteriorating. It also represents 69 families that did not experience the
loss of equity, damage credit record, and the possibility of homelessness
that result from foreclosure.

Three grants awarded to the community by the HCCF have had a significant
effect on the outlook for Huron County. These grants reflect the YAC's and
the Tobacco Advisory Committee's responsiveness to the needs of the
community in administering the funds as appropriate.
The Arthritis Self Help Grant to the Huron Health Department addresses the
need for afflicted adults to be able to recognize and deal with the effects of
arthritis in the home setting. Nurses have provided small classes with follow
up for patients who require daily care but do not require hospitalization. The
Thumb Industries received a grant to facilitate the older mentally challenged
adult in going into the workplace for employment. This program, which
focuses on mentoring through coaching, challenges the individual, and
promotes self-esteem while providing the attention of a sheltered work
environment. These two grants were funded through the Tobacco Settlement
Funds provided to Huron County Community Foundation.
Additionally, the YAC funded needed fencing for a new day care center.
They discussed the need in view of the rising unemployment in the county and
the likely situation of more mothers having to join the workforce. Their
discussion addressed the lack of suitable day care for Huron County.
The JCCF granted $75,000 to the Jackson County Intermediate school District
for the Early Literacy in Jackson County initiative. The initiative's central
purpose is to ensure that all Jackson County students read well and
independently by the end of third grade. The lSD accomplishes this through
three distinct methods that complement each other: 1) Training all Jackson
County pre-school through third grad teachers in how to use the Michigan
Literacy Progress Profile; 2) Training 44 teachers over four years in the
"Reading Recovery" method, an approach to teaching early literacy that
involves working intensively with students whose literacy skills place them at
the bottom 20% of their class; and, 3) Introducing Literacy Specialists into
elementary school classrooms to model best practices in literacy instruction
for elementary school teachers.
One of the key factors the Foundation considered in deciding to make this
grant, one of the most significant in its 54-year history, was the cooperative
nature of this program. Thirteen out of fourteen school districts within the
lSD submitted letters of support for this program and are committing a
substantial amount of their own money to support the three components. The
"culture" of literacy created by this program has shaped the development of
after school programming and brought the school districts into closer working
relationships with human service and community based organizations. The
lSD has leveraged significant funding from the State of Michigan with
evidence of strong local support of their program. This early literacy program
has impacted this community by increasing the effectiveness of public
education, and by laying the groundwork for successful collaboration between
schools, human services agencies, and community based organizations.

Five grants probably had the most impact on our service area as a whole.
Three grants were made to three different rural volunteer fire departments,
which totaled $6,140. One was for a thermal imaging camera, another for
equipment upgrade, and a third for a cold water rescue. These might not
impact large numbers of people, but they will undoubtedly save the lives of
victims of various misfortunes and will enable the volunteers to work more
safely than they could otherwise.
Another $1,200 grant to Goodwill
Industries was made for a program called Youth Choices, which targeted
elementary and middle school youth, showing them the consequences of good
and bad choices made by young people. It was designed to help them prepare
before they are confronted with making choices about lifestyle and
alternatives. The last was a $650 feel-good grant made to the Marinette Area
Chamber of Commerce for an outdoor Sunset Concert series held in an island
park. It was offered at no charge and was very popular with a large segment
of the local population. It gave many people a chance to meet with neighbors
and friends and enjoy some musical entertainment in a beautiful setting.

support Group Workcamps. Group Workcamps bring in Jr. and Sr. High
school students from all over the country to do home repairs for the elderly
and poor of a community. With the collaboration of MSHDA, FIA, Five
CAP, LOVE for Children, area churches, schools, and clubs, over 56 homes
were rehabilitated at no cost to the owners. It was estimated that these
teenagers provided the cash equivalent of over $1000,000 worth of
manpower during the course of the work week.
The most "impactful" grant last fiscal year was to MITECH+ for the startup
and operating costs. MITECH+ was born from a community visioning
process led by the Community Foundation. Through this process it was
determined that more technical training was needed in Midland County. A
"Forum for Technical Training" was established to consider the issues.
These efforts culminated into an initiative called MITECH+. MITECH+ is
a new nonprofit which focuses on being a broker/agent creating improved
linkages between students (both youth and adults) and current training
providers. MITECH+ will work to fill gaps in training and trigger
innovation in the way o( education and training is delivered in the future.
Child and Family Enrichment Council for a children's assessment center $5,000. The center is now up and running.
Isabella County Commission on Aging for senior medical prescriptions $8,000. Tobacco Settlement money is absolutely needed!

County awarded a total of $4,584,402 in grants in support of a wide array of
community needs.
Of special note during 2001 were two new
environmental grant projects that impact local watersheds and represent
significant environmental protection and preservation efforts in Muskegon
County. The first is the White River Watershed project that the Community
Foundation initiated with funding support from the Howmet/Alcoa
Corporations and the Alcoa Foundation. The second is the Mona Lake
Watershed Initiative organized with funding support from the C.S. Mott
Foundation. The combined watershed projects, which represent major
environmental initiatives of the Community Foundation, were awarded a
total of $150,000 in grants during 2001.

The Albion Community Foundation help to leverage the $1 million needed
to bring a new health clinic to Albion, which was a necessity as the hospital
recently closed. This facility is offering excellent services and helping to
keep the residents of Albion healthier.

Foundation
commonplace that the foundation is asked to come to the table to serve on
committees and discussions that aren't just in search of funding. We are
becoming know as not only a non-profit champion but a respected voice
behind the scenes.
Ann Arbor Area Community
AAACF jointly hosted (with the Washtenaw United Way) a Community
Summit for Nonprofit Management Capacity to assist local nonprofits in
Foundation
clarifying and communicating their management capacity needs and issues.
Held on the campus of Eastern Michigan University, the Summit was the
result of a comprehensive Needs Assessment of several hundred local
nonprofits conducted by AAACF, WUW, and the NEW Center.
Barry Community Foundation
Barry County has long needed to bring together all the "interest" groups to
have and develop a common vision for the future of our community.
Maggie Coleman, Chair of our community leadership committee, worked
diligently to assist and the foundation granted $7,800 to pay for the
facilitator of a future search conference held in May 2002.
Battle Creek Community Foundation The Battle Creek Community Foundation has continued to provide a key
leadership role in the health arena. In the last year, the Community
Foundation has continued to be a catalyst and organizing force for the
Regional Health Alliance. Additionally, in the past year, the Community
Foundation has partpered to reach out to communities in need in our
county. We have been a collaborator with other key stakeholders and
community leaders in the town of Albion on the eastern side of the county.
Confronted with challenges, Albion has come together to collectively
address the health needs of its citizens. The Battle Creek Community
Foundation has served as a neutral convener and partner in those
discussions and is proud to be a part of that ongoing collaborative.
Bay Area Community Foundation
BACF partnered with an area leadership program to build a skate park for
youth recreation .
With the help of corporate and governmental sponsors, Bay Area
Community Foundation raised $187,000 for development of an integrated
· math/science/environmental curriculum.
Four modules engage K-12
students in a five-county area. The second phase of the project will
complete an integrated social science/environmental curriculum.
Berrien Community Foundation
The Berrien Community Foundation took a lead role in hosting a countywide, ail-day seminar featuring Robin Carr-Morse. The author presented
the findings in her book, "Ghosts from the Nursery" to more than 45 non
profit agencies.
Following her presentations, leaders of NPOs and
community residents formed discussion groups assisted by trained
facilitators to identify and explore current and needed programs to serve
Berrien County's youngest children. The Berrien Community Foundation
also underwrote a large portion of the cost of "Ghosts from the Nursery"
and distributed them to the NPOs and public and school libraries
throughout Berrien County.
More recently, the Berrien County
Intermediate School District launched the "Early On" program to address
the same issues exposed and discussed during the seminar.

State Department of Natural recreational facility in East Jordan.
Our foundation takes the lead in having a county wide arts and cultural
survey performed. We are fortunate in having the William Bonifas Fine
Arts Center here in Escanaba. It is home to an arts gallery; a theatre group,
a crafting group, an artistic shop, etc. In addition most area schools and
Bay College also have facilities for arts and cultural groups. By taking the
head role in this survey, the foundation hoped to accomplish a number of
goals.
1) Avoid making grants that are duplicating. 2) Bringing all various
groups and facilities together. 3) To develop an "outreach program."
Helping to coordinate and advance a community-wide anti-racism strategy,
in cooperation with other funders, other non-profit organizations and
community leaders.
Facilitating the CMF/MSHDA Homeless Prevention Challenge Grant was
the foundation's largest endeavor in a collaborative community effort. A
large portion of leveraging and brokering funds was necessary to meet the
1:1 match requirement of this grant. During the slow economy in this paper
industry based community, it gave new definition to the words "fund
development." It was intensified by the communities need for homeless
prevention, as lay-offs and reduction of work hours was becoming an
everyday trend . The positive note is that area individuals stepped forward
to help with the match and we were able to receive the full grant amount for
program assistance.

We have convened groups who represent senior citizen issues twice a year.
Our service area covers parts of 4 counties &amp; we discuss services, needs of
seniors and strategies for funding programs which will benefit seniors. The
group has grown since we began meeting. The networking among the
group has been helpful to all. We have received grant applications for the
Healthy Seniors/Healthy Youth Fund from the group and they keep
requesting that we meet twice a year. We meet at local senior centers and
participants can learn what programs the center is offering, and how the
center was created. Some of our local seniors are in need of a center and
are interested in how others have been created.
Hired a consultant to revive the Association of Retarded Citizens (ARC)
dysfunctional Board that manages two homes for people with disabilities.
Brought various groups together to solve issues involving all.
Involved with the Leadership in Newaygo County (LINC) program for the
development of future leaders.
Convened Congressman Peter Hoekstra, local agencies and clients to
discuss the importance of the Even Start Program.
Year end emergency grant for heat vouchers for local families as local
agencies funds were all expended.
Involvement in community coalitions: North Ottawa Area Community
coalition and North Ottawa Housing coalition.
The GRCF awarded a $400,000 grant to GVSU toward building a Health
Professions building on the medical corridor in downtown Grand Rapids.
The grant was awarded with the stipulation that it be used to decrease the
local health care dispari_ties among minority populations. The Foundation
was aware of the African American Health Institute (AAHI) , an
organization being formed to provide research, information and education
to the health community regarding the marked disparities in health care and
conditions among African Americans. Over the course of several meetings,
the Grand Rapids Community Foundation convened the (AAHI) and key
GVSU representatives to identify potential partnerships.
The Convening resulted in GVSU providing office space and services for
the AAHI in a key spot in the medical corridor. The AAHI will provide
training for GVSU health professional students, and both institutions will

community will benefit from the coordinated efforts to recruit and train a
diverse health care workforce, and by a potentially significant effort to
reduce health care disparities.
Because we have 106 agency funds we have developed activities and
"tools" to assist them in their fund development activities: 1) a series of inhouse discussion sessions on fund raising. We prepared "homework"
assignments to prepare them for the discussion, keeping the sessions
focused, fun and brief. They really were appreciated - as indicated in our
follow up survey. 2) We offered a gift annuity program for those who have
endowed funds with us . 3) We managed campaign funds for more than 14
of these organizations.

Leveraging/brokering funds to meet community need: Started endowment
fund for United Way Volunteer Connections so matching operational
monies would come to the organization.
We are working with the local sheriffs department lSD and Probate Court
to bring about stronger programs and penalties to address juvenile issues
such as crimes, truancy, and drug and alcohol abuse. This collaboration has
been very successful.
September 11th - Collaborated with several city and community agencies to
raise $35,000+ for the victims and families most adversely affected by
September 11th in New York and Washington, D.C.
Raised close to $200,000 pass through money to meet some of our
$750,000 in grant requests. Earnings provided another $90,000. Without
organizing and approaching key people we would not have had much
discretion in our granting for 2002.
The role of convenor or facilitator have emerged as the most needed and
applicable in Huron County. At this point in time, with low market
performance, we have been able to make a greater impact by bringing
people and groups together to collaborate on needs and desires. Some
examples are: 1) Partnership developed in County among various arts and
culture groups as _stepping stone to developing a Tri-county Cultural Plan
with Sanilac Tuscol a County. 2) Meetings to bring preservation societies
of 3 county lighthouses together to form an endowment fund. 3) Coalition
of women developed with working title- "Women Mentoring Women" to
encompass several women's issues not otherwise addressed. Bringing
women into philanthropy.
In November 2001, a group of fourteen arts and cultural organizations
formally approached JCF with the proposal that we take a leadership role in
assisting them with development of an Arts and Cultural Plan for Jackson
County. JCF staff convened three preplanning sessions with the group to
clarify the request and what it would mean in terms of sharing leadership of
the effort. We have since decided to expand our commitment to include
helping the group develop an organizational infrastructure, involve broader
community partners, and assist in reaching four short term goals: 1)
Develop a public art advisory committee for the City of Jackson; 2)
Complete a cultural assessment survey of Jackson County; 3) Launch a
geo-demographic study associated training workshops to increase arts and
cultural organizations' capacity to develop new audiences; and, 4)
Leverage outside funds to support the first three goals.
We view this opportunity as an example of a possible "tipping point" where
the investment of JCF's resources can make a difference in the quality of
life in our community disproportionately greater than our investment. We
see this as an opportunity to invest in a community-wide infrastructure that
will increase the capacity of our arts and cultural organizations to: 1)
Contribute to economic and broader community development; 2) Improve
the quality of life and overall livability of the community; and, 3) Partner
with other sectors and organizations to address problems and take
advantage of opportunities.

BetterTogether/Kalamazoo, an initiative that will reach out to the
community to address their most pressing issues, as identified by the people
who live there.
The Leelanau Township Community Foundation served as a convenor for
community discussions this year. Several members of the Board of
Trustees formed a small group of civic leaders who are meeting weekly to
formulate a vision statement that is intended to guide the future of our
community. In addition, Board members are involved in an Affordable
Housing Task Force for Leelanau County.
Involvement m community planning through our Leave a Legacy
collaborative, sponsorship of a Lifetime Legacy Philanthropy dinner, and
efforts with youth , including volunteer activities, such as the annual Senior
Prom (at a local senior center) and our first Youth Leadership Institute.
TheM &amp; M Area Community Foundation has been very involved with the
Homeless Initiative originated by the State of Michigan. Staff and several
Board members have been instrumental in trying to bring a homeless shelter
into the community. The project was started by a small group of private
citizens, but as time went on, it became the job of the Foundation to
maintain progress. The Foundation, of course, disburses funds for the
shelter, and became very involved in providing technical assistance. A new
Board was formed and new money was raised to bring the shelter building
into compliance with federal, state and local codes. Foundation staff
attended all meetings, giving advice and encouragement, and is still
following the proj ect-closely. However, there are several issues still to be
dealt with before the shelter can open. We continue to oversee the funds,
and to help the project along as much as possible.
In the area of conservation, the MICF created the Community Conservation
Forum and sponsored an educational series, open discussion forum and
community charette to begin to face issues of growth and capacity on
Mackinac Island.
Convenor for community discussion around issues of teens and other youth
in the community. Provide technical expertise to area senior citizen nonprofit organization: 501 (c) (3) assistance with bylaws, governance
structure, and acted as fiduciary while paperwork is pending.
Each of the FIVE roles circled below is a significant part of one initiative.
We have convened, and our CEO chairs, the Entranceways Initiative Task
Force. This group of leaders represents foundations , the municipality,
business/industry, and citizens-at-large, who have come together to: 1) be
proactive about planning improvements to the main entranceways and
corridors in Midland, 2) consider aesthetics, green space, way-finding and
common themes or elements as we do our work, 3) support the work of the
City of Midland and our local developers as they attempt to create revised
design guidelines which are considerate of the needs of each, and 4)
encourage the business community to consider design aesthetics, green
space and plantings as they plan new construction and/or exterior
remodeling and landscaping.
In relation to the community we have converged for several different
community discussions this past year. We have also been involved in
several different community planning projects that will continue into this
next year.

We are a fundraising resource for non-profits. I have counseled many
organizations on fundraising through year-end appeals, corporate
sponsorship, grant writing, friends groups and of course, endowment
building.
We hold Community Leaders Luncheons quarterly. Part of these luncheons
includes bringing in speakers to talk about issues pertinent to our
community. We sponsored a presentation by Mark Wyckoff, a specialist on
Land Use Management, to speak to government officials in our ten
counties.
We continue to play a role in the "Leadership Little Travers" program to
develop community leaders, which we helped start three years ago. We
now assist with scholarship assistance. Probably the most important one is
Emmet 20/20. We are the fiscal agent for this grassroots initiative to ensure
that the people of Emmet County are aware of, and involved in, the issues
affecting their communities. We have helped a couple of community
groups with their fundraising by acting as temporary fiscal sponsors. Two
of our unrestricted endowment grants last year were 1: 1 challenge grants.
This leveraged other gifts from individuals and companies who supported
those organizations.
The Community Foundation of Greater Rochester, in its role as a convenor,
brought together twelve leaders representing the Chamber of Commerce,
Rochester College, Oakland University, Crittenton Hospital, RG13, King
Pharmaceuticals, Rochester Community Schools, and Macro Computer
Products to discuss developing a leadership program for our community.
The idea was embraced- by all and additional planning has resulted in the
establishment of an Advisory Board, creation of curriculum, identification
of a program director and a target start date of September 2003. The
Leadership Rochester will build a broad-based network of community
leaders who will enhance their leadership abilities and skills through
continuing education, shared perspectives and community involvement in
order to enable them to work toward solutions in the public interest. A
grant form the Community Foundation will fund expenses related to start-up
activities.
l. The foundation is heading our local America's Promise efforts,
resulting in Saginaw County being chosen as 1 of 13 nationwide
demonstration sites.
Thru this program I we introduced the
Communities in Schools Program to the community as a way to engage
individuals and businesses in school improvement.
2 . Thru our Kresge Challenge partnership, we are working with 23 local
nonprofit organizations to 1. Raise endowment funds and 2. Increase
their capacity thru technical assistance programs.
In addition to investments in the landscape, the Community Foundation for
Southeastern Michigan, through the Green Ways Initiative, has had a
profound effect on the community in three different arenas. The first is the
creation of a process in which the various municipalities and community
groups can collaborate successfully. Because the Green Ways Initiative
brings communities together to plan and work across jurisdictional lines,
never-before created coalitions of neighboring communities are coming
together to develop a shared vision for and use of their landscape. The
second has to do with elevating the profile of greenways, and their benefits,
in the communities. Greenways can transform communities, can bring
communities and their neighborhoods together, can improve the health and

well-being of those who use them, and change the social dynamic when
people visit greenways. By citing the benefits of greenways whenever a
Green Ways Initiative grant is awarded or an event is held, the community
is becoming increasingly aware of those benefits and their importance to the
way we live in southeast Michigan. The third is resources. Several state or
federal funds had not awarded grants to southeast Michigan even remotely
comparable to the percentage of the state's population. The Green Ways
Initiative grants have leveraged significant resources, and (when the
projects are completed) will have generated public funding grant awards in
an amount that exceeds $4 of public money for every $1 of Green Ways
money. Through the Green Ways Initiative, the Community Foundation has
truly become a leader in linkage, leverage and coll aboration, in revitalizing
the landscape and investing in the quality of life in southeast Michigan.
We lead an effort to explore the possible creation of a non-profit center to
house multiple organizations.
We also worked with two groups that serve our low income and minority
populations in an effort to better coordinate their work, reduce duplication
and maximize resources.
We held a community meeting to get input of community and organization
leaders about what would make Sturgis a better place to live, work, and
play. From this information a Board committee developed 3 areas of
grantmaking to focus on over the next few years.
Generally, we work with various community organizations to help them
meet their objectives and to help us keep abreast of community needs .
Providing technical assistance to our affiliates and guidance concerning
various matters. Our affiliates are being operated by volunteers and we
provide whatever support that they require in order to operate efficiently.

Out Y AC had just developed its own RFP for grants from Youth Fund.
It adds youth preparation requirement, identification of development
assets addressed, and launches new youth mini-grant program.
They actively as well as financially support the youth services
initiative. The project makes 13 curriculum options available to
schools throughout the county and schedules those programs into the
classroom They also support post prom bashes.
Developing a web-based mini-grant for high school students as well as
a plan to speak to youth groups on how to apply for a grant.
Working with the schools in doing mini grants. Getting the kids
involved in planning. We funded a walking club, recycling programs,
students taking a new direction (STAND) groups, peer mediation
program, and a summer service program.
RFPs for: 1) Program to teach decision-making skills. 2) Program to
enhance teen/parent/guardian relations. See addendum C
Funding community skate park on continuing basis even if no grant
proposal was submitted.
We saw a need for a summer social activity for community youth on a
week day because most youth work weekends. We did not put out a
RFP but rather coordinated as series of music groups ourselves.
Some of our YAC go to elementary schools and explain what an
environmental "mini-grant" is and how they can apply for one. We
also hold a Youth Conference in the spring and invite students from
local High Schools to attend . Our YAC invites a speaker to come and
they also conduct a workshop to go along with the theme of the
conference. Last year, (March 2002) our conference served
approximately 180 youth.

YAC Annual Survey 2002
Report to the field

Our Y AC is currently sorting through the results of the needs
assessment survey's, looking at the issues where their grantmaking can
be most effective.
This year the County-Wide Y AC approached the Resource Center
about submitting a proposal for an Alumni Leadership Development
Project that was attached to the Community Foundation's Summer
Youth Initiative Program. The Summer Youth Initiative Program was
funded by C.S. Matt Foundation and administered through the
Community Foundation for summer employment, recreational and
educational programs targeting at risk youth in Genesee County. The
Matt Foundation Leadership Academy was first initiated in the
summer of 2001 and I part with Y AC funds . Because project reports
indicated that the project was successful and well received, in spring of
2002 the Y AC group requested that a proposal be submitted for
consideration for the summer of 2002.
For the 2002 - 2003 school year the South Lakes Y AC had conducted
a needs assessment poll have a current Request for Proposals out. The
issues are: Teen Pregnancy, Teen Suicide, Anger Management and
Violence Prevention
For the last school year the Grand Blanc Y AC group did not engage in
proactive grantmaking however, since August of 2002, the group has
approached a school club called UNITE to request them to submit a
proposal for a diversity program for the 2002- 2003 school year.
Encouraging volunteerism/community service among middle schoolage youth through our mini-grant program. Teams of Y AC members
present to classrobms, do a mini-needs assessment, and encourage
them to apply for mini-grants for a group service project.
To address the issue of youth violence, the YGC elected to enhance
existing and develop new Peer Listening Programs in Kent County
high schools. The YGC identified a model program at Forest Hills
Northern High School, and for the past two years, has been working in
partnership with student Peer Listeners at FHNHS. Nearly 200
students and faculty from 17 West Michigan high schools attended the
first annual Peer Listening Forum in 2001, and two schools attended an
eight-hour training session. A second forum and training session are
planned for 2002. In addition, YGC members and Peer Listeners,
along with their adult advisors, created a Peer Listening Advisory
Committee, which will present criteria to the Kent Intermediate School
District that would allow the lSD to certify Peer Listening programs,
participants, and advisors.
Each year, the ICCF Y AC uses a portion of its grantmaking dollars to
hold the "Ionia County Youth Forum," in which 25 students from each
oflonia County's five high schools come together to Jearn about and
discuss youth issues. In November 2001, the Forum included speakers
from Big Brothers/Big Sisters, who encouraged the young people to
become vo1unteers, teen moms from a support group in Belding who
shared the challenges of teen parenting, and the Mayor of Ionia who
shared his experiences and how he overcame challenges to become a
!t;:ader. Finally, theY AC members designed a "game show" in which
adult's perceptions of the challenges and issues confronting youth were
compared to youth's perceptions of adults' experiences as teens . In
addition to the activities at the Forum, over 20 youth-serving
organizations had display boots on hand share information with the

students about the services available through those organizations.
The academic year of 2001-2002 was a rebuilding year for the
Southeast Ottawa Community Foundation YAC. The YAC had not
met for several years, and had never engaged in grantmaking. As such,
theY AC has not yet engaged in any proactive grantmaking projects.
As this was only the second year of traditional grantmaking by the
Sparta Y AC, and the first needs assessment done by the Y AC, no
proactive grantmaking projects have been undertaken.
1. Y AC President is on the Community Foundation Board of
Directors,
2. YAC students have "reviewed" programs targeted at youth and
given their suggestions.
3. YAC students have served on many different non-profit boards.
4. YAC students have been very visible in the community
volunteering and received a lot of positive newspaper support.
Y AC follow guidelines of the foundation closely to ensure that grants
meet requirements. They also discuss issues they see as biggest
concerns of their peers and use this information when marking
decisions. They ask for follow-up reports, accountability and
opportunities for them to volunteer on projects they fund.
RFP distributed
Our Y AC is not engaged in proactive grantmaking, but does review
and decide on all grant requests, which involve youth activities. These
include many extra-curricular school activities, youth sports sponsored
by volunteer grou_ps, summer vacation enrichment programs,
children's theater productions, and prevention of youth tobacco,
alcohol, and drug abuse. They do make decisions on funding more
pro-actively, using their own experience and judgment to either foltow
the requests for funds or increase or decrease funds according to their
first-hand knowledge of the projects.
This year they will be working off of the results from the "40 assets."
This is something they are just starting. So far, they have discussed
what they would like to fund. They now plan to develop a plan to go
about getting these kinds of applications.
Sending out letters to local schools requesting grant applications for
specific areas of need.
The 2000 Needs Assessment indicated Alcohol, Tobacco and Other
Drugs (ATOD) as the highest priority. The second priority was
Recreation. Grant applications addressing those issues receive more
attention during the review process. Of the $24, 285 in grants awarded
9/2001-8/2002, $18,088 was awarded for ATOD or recreation
programs.
We just completed a "Challenge Day" program in October, 2002.

The Muskegon Y AC has heard a variety of presentations on youth
issues ranging from truancy to health risk behaviors during the past
year. These presentations helped the youth to think about their
grantmaking and to make a greater impact in the community. In
addition, as a result of hearing a report on youth risk behaviors, they
have been invited to participate in the County's Substance Abuse
Collaborative.
Each year, students dedicate at least one half of the grant dollars
available for projects that address one or more of the top ten needs of
the most current Needs Assessment Survey.
Promoting grantmaking among their contacts in the high school and
community, including feature articles in the school newsletter and
personal contacts.
This YAC held a Youth Awareness Day called Yacapalooza.
Businesses and organizations (public and school) were invited to
display information about activities available to youth. There were
exhibits from 1-4 pm and a dance from 7-10 pm. There were also
games and refreshments.
The OCCF Y AC organized a program to offer mini-grants to teachers
in area schools for class room projects. The OCCF YAC also offered
area schools funding to operate the "Be-A-Santa" project to distribute
gifts to those in need during the holiday season.
Recently participated in a Grantmakers/Grantseekers Coffee that
featured the Women 's Fund, Tobacco Settlement Grants and Youth
Fund Grants. Sixteen local agency representatives attended.

Seed money for a local skatepark initiative ($2,000)
TheY AC granted 8,000 to our new county homeless initiative. The funds were
used to provide shelter to families with children.
$1000 grant to the Neutral Zone Teen Center based on an application written by
a high school student to start a city-wide debate team. The grant was matched
(total $2000) by a private foundation. Within one year the team formed, found
a coach, earned third place in a state competition and convinced the school
district to support the team in the future. A small grant can make a big impact!
I think our mini grant program had the most impact on our community this year.
It involves a lot of small ($300 or less) grants, but involves youth in
philanthropy even at the elementary school level.
$25,000 to the Bay County Library System- This is part of a 3 year ($65,000)
grant tot fully fund Teen Rooms at all library locations in our community (The
Library has completed a capital campaign).
$16,000 to HOYA- To enable Helping Our Youth Achieve to empower out-ofschool youth to set goals toward high school completion; to provide lifestyle
management training in the workplace, to teen workers in training. Geographic
area served: Benton Harbor, MI
Project Prom- This is a series of after prom recreational activities designed to
prevent under age drinking and driving. It started several years ago by
concerned parents and continues annually by different groups of parents. The
program has deteriorated and participation dropped to increasing restrictions on
student activities culminating with the idea of locking all participants in one
large building for the entire night. Our Y AC refused to give a grant unless
Y AC members were give-n a_seat on the committee. Some parents were upset
and resigned committee positions, but our Y AC members received praise from
many parents- they helped to put together a successful program and contacted
area merchants to assure the rest of the financial support.
The grant to the City of Charlotte Youth Advisory board for $2,000 was able to
address the problems that our survey found the most critical. The grant funded
a forum to educate the city's youth on substance abuse and teen sexuality.
Continuation of a comprehensive wellness program for adolescent-age students
and their parents, designed to improve student choices relative to healthy diet
and exercise. This program is jointly funded by the Y AC, the Healthy
Youth/Healthy Seniors Fund, the East Jordan Family Health Center and East
Jordan High School.
Our Y AC gave $100 to each of the six area schools, for their all night-alcohol
free senior parties. We received a detailed thank-you letter from each of the
schools, and theY AC felt like they helped keep lOO's of seniors safe.
The grant awarded to the Resource Center for the Mott Foundation Leadership
Academy "MFLA" Alumni Leadership program has probably had the most
impact on youth in the community. Fifty-six (56) youth were given an
opportunity to enhance and expand upon leadership skills developed through
their second year participation in a project focusing on such areas as, goal
setting, teamwork, decision making skills, self confidence and career options.
The targeted youth were primarily from low-income urban families where the
risk of involvement with negative behaviors and activities were high. After
participating for the second summer, the youth were extended an opportunity to
become a part of another leadership program that takes place during the school
year. Because referrals for the school year program have traditionally come
from teachers, and counselors, many of these students had not previously had
the opportunity to participate in such a program.

North Dickinson School- Project: Inter-Generational Community Dance
The Fenton Area Public Schools "Summer Career Enrichment Program" grant
probably ha had the most significant impact on youth in this area. One hundred
and one (101) youth were exposed to the opportunity to learn about career
exploration as it relates to core academics. According to the final report 80% of
the students increased their reading level per pre and post-tests.
We granted $11,100 to Zone Productions this year. By doing this we assisted
The Zone in renovating a building and furnishing it. Out of that location, they
have set up a youth center with pool tables, music, video games and food in
both a fun and wholesome environment. The Zone Productions have given kids
an alternative place to go after school and have fun rather than be at home
without supervision or walking the streets. We are very proud of what The
Zone has done and are glad we could help them along the way.
The summer programs for Newaygo County youth funded activities for
hundreds of students throughout the county.
The "Following the Leader Workshop" grant was the sole grant awarded in
2001-2002 school year. It allowed students from the Grand Blanc School
District, who were not traditional leaders and who may not otherwise have had
the change, an opportunity to participate in a program designed to assist them in
taking on leadership roles in their school and community.
Child and Family Services of Western Michigan "North Ottawa Girls On The
Run" program- $7,000. Over 400 3'ct through 5th grade girls participated. Girls
On The Run is an 110-week program that combines training for a 3.1 mile run
with self-esteem, enhancing and uplifting workouts. The goal of the program is
to encourage positive emotional, social, physical and SIJiritual development.
In my opinion, the grant made to the Forest Hills Public Schools to expand Peer
Listening Programs has the greatest potential to reach a broad spectrum of youth
in a meaningful way. The Peer Listening Program that is being used as a model
is extremely effective and highly utilized by students. The impact of Peer
Listening on the student population at FHNHS is tremendous : students in crisis
cannot focus on learning, and this program's success, and the reason the YGC
has been so eager to replicate it in schools county-wide, is the high level of
student involvement and leadership in the program. In addition, the "proactive"
nature of the grant itself makes this grant a particularly good fit for the YGC.
In my opinion, the grant made to support the Ionia County Youth Forum has the
potential for the greatest impact. As described above, it is proactive in nature,
anci the exposure to resources available and the increased awareness between
youth and adult perspectives was outstanding.
In my opinion, the grant made to the Underground has the greatest potential
impact, both for Y AC members and the broader youth community. The original
request was for general operating support of this teen (middle school aged)
nightclub, but the Y AC instead opted to sponsor a single night, when no
admission would be charged, and Y AC members would volunteer their time to
supervise and engage the middle school attendees. It was highly successful, and
many Y AC members are now regular volunteers at the Underground.
In my opinion, the grant made to the Open Hearts Community Church had the
greatest impact. The grant provided funds for church volunteers to construct a
skate ramp that attracted many young people in the diverse, low-income
neighborhood surrounding the church, and was staffed by church volunteers.
Attendance at the summer program was excellent, and the program filled a need
in the community.

In my opinion, the grant made to Arbor Circle has the greatest potential impact
on the youth of Sparta. Teen parents in Sparta, of which there are a significant
number, receive respite care and parenting support from professional staff
through this program.
$500 will be spent this fall at a small school in our county. This will be an
"open gym" program for middle and high school students. The area is
underserved for recreational activities. Previous programs like this, funded by
teachers and private citizens, attracted a large percentage of area youth.
Center for Women in Transition $11,500 Girls on the Run/Girls on Track
Program second grant for preventative program for girls 3'd- 7tl! grade. It was
so greatly received that local program grew from 400 to 1,000 participants,
becoming the largest one of its kind in the nation in only one year.
Grants (2) to MSU Extension Service- Building of Concession Stand and
Judge's Stand to be utilized in all riding lessons and competitions. In this case
the group became directly involved by asking much more comprehensive
questions regarding handicapped opportunities and application in Behavioral
Modifications. The group did some of the physical labor as volunteers. It was
an opportunity to see inception to completion.
Our $7,500 grant to fund "Challenge Day" for Jackson County schools was an
opportunity for youth and adults to come together and experience this great
program. The impact of this grant is tremendous since the individual districts
all hope to continue offering Challenge Days each year!
Kalamazoo Public Library Teen Services Group submitted a grant request for
"The Diversions Project" which provides books of encouragement to youth in
local hospitals. Thisprog_ram was the idea of and designed by teens.
In 2001-02, the Leelanau Township Community Foundation impacted youth
through a $7,000 YAC grant that helped to furnished new playground
equipment for the local public school. The new playground equipment was
installed during the summer by community volunteers and welcomed the
students back to school this fall. The swings, slide, and climbing bars add
bright color and the joyful sound of children playing to the community.
Purchase of a KIDS KIT for after school activities for Britton-Macon School,
where participation is almost 80% of elementary students plus 3-8 parent or
community volunteers weekly.
Two of theY AC grants made in May of 2001 were awarded to the Marinette
Recreation Department. They totaled $2,063, and provided scholarships for
youth who otherwise could not afford to take part in some of the activities. It
also contributed toward the construction of a skateboard park which young
people in the community wanted very much. The two grants made a significant
improvement in opportunities for those young people who typically are at loose
ends during the summer and after-school hours. One of the continuing
criticisms of the community by young people is that there is "nothing to do."
This grant did something to alleviate the problem.
A grant was given to the TMI rooms at the Manistee Intermediate Education
Center to purchase a green house. The students grew plants that they eventually
delivered to senior citizens throughout the county.
Willow Farm- A horse riding therapy program for special needs children. It is
an organization that had never previously applied and the program is different
than any other we've granted to. It impacts a great deal of youth and is very
positively viewed in our community.
United Arts Council/Post Concert Series for $3 ,000. This funding for
elementary classes allows all Marshall Public Schools elementary students to
attend professional concerts throughout two school years .

Grant of $3,528 to Mecosta County Council for the Arts for the Summer Art
Tent project. This provided a spot for youth artists to exhibit their work during
the Big Rapids local summer festival, "Pioneer Days" . Many students also sold
their work and was an exciting event for all students in the county.
We gave a mini-grant that theY AC members were really excited about. A local
school wanted to provide a program for their elementary students about
"cultural awareness." It was used to help educate the youth about cultural
diversity around the world as well as in their own school.
Our Y AC coordinates a Yellow Ribbon Awareness Day Grant Program -a
suicide prevention program. We provide each high school in the county with up
tot $750 to plan a day of events educating students, faculty and staff about
suicide prevention efforts. We will be expanding the program this year to
include middle schools. It is difficult to evaluate a program like this, but
responses have been positive from both students and teachers/administrators.
The American Red Cross grant was to provide involvement between youth and
seniors with on site visits and activities. This was very successful.
YAC sponsored a Challenge Day program for all local high schools. Challenge
Day (featured at theY AC Summer Leadership Conference of 2001 at CMU) is
a pro-active violence prevention program that addresses the issues of violence
prevention program that addresses the issues of violence, teasing, stereotypes,
racism, tobacco, social oppression, and alcohol within the context of school life.
The program is designed to tear down the walls of separation and inspire
participants to live, study and work in an environment of compassion,
acceptance and respect. YAC sponsored the program for 2 days. Over 200
students participated from 7 schools, along with many community adult
volunteers.
- The YAC grant that has had the most impact on youth in Muskegon County is
the Council of Michigan Foundations- Learning to Give grant. YAC awarded
$10,000 to support this program, which teaches youth in schools across
Muskegon County about the American tradition of "volunteering and charitable
giving." Because of the Columbine-type incidents that have occurred over the
last few years, teachers are searching for some way to teach sharing, caring,
compassion and charity in the classroom as a means of combating the
aggressive, violent, in-your-face behavior they are seeing. Already, the
Muskegon YAC has heard a report from an elementary school student who took
the values of Learning to Give to heart and has decided to get the mail for an
elderly neighbor each day after school. It is this type of caring which will help
to promote the tradition of giving in future generations.
During the February 2002 grant cycle, the Youth Advisory Council gave a grant
of $2,500 to Lincoln Elementary School for a trip to Lansing. Many of the
students at this school are low-income and at-risk. The grant allowed 28 sixth
grad students and 10 adults to stay in dorms at the MSU Campus. They visited
the MSU Planetarium, fish hatchery, and the State's Capitol Building. The trip
was designed to broaden their horizons and to show them what's available if
they work hard and set goals. The students were required to keep journals, and
they also had to raise additional funds for expenses not covered by the grant.
Cheboygan H.S . Adopt-A-Family project which "adopts" as many
underprivileged families as possible during the Holiday Season and provides
gifts.
Most of our Y AC members are grimly determined to address the problem of
substance abuse, especially in a proactive way if possible. They have funded
Project Graduation events, rallies, and motivational speakers .

Iosco Regional Educational Service Agency (IRESA) was provided $1,150 for a
Youth Enrichment Success (YES) program. This is a student training program
to develop and encourage better decision making skills for students
experiencing school and community-related problems.
The OCCF Y AC sponsored the program "True Love Waits" for all schools in
the area. The presentation addresses teen sexuality issues, particularly
abstinence and why teens should wait.
Difficult to choose just one, but I think the Instead Club of Littlefield Public
School is the one. The Instead Club is an after-school program and also runs in
the summer. The Village of Alanson, where the school is located , is a small
community in our county and there isn't much for young people to do . While
abstinence is the main message, the program offers them many healthy and for
activities and field trips. The coordinator of the program is young and has a
wonderful connection with the kids. There is no doubt that the Instead Club
keeps many Alanson kids out of trouble.
Youth Fund partnered with the Tobacco Settlement (Healthy Youth/Healthy
Seniors) Fund to award $4,500 ($2,250 from each fund) for a project entitled
"Bully Proofing Your School." This program seeks to address the serious
problem of bullying and teasing within the school environment. The program
was a systemic approach to heighten awareness and offer alternate behaviors for
all middle school students in the Rochester Community Schools system.
Bridgeport-Spaulding Community Schools Yellow Ribbon Teen Suicide
Prevention Program- Established a proactive, preventive outreach program to
help address issue of the teen suicide.
The Committee did a follow_up site visit to the Angela Home Hospice project
and were very impressed. The teen volunteers at Angela Home Hospice built a
closet of activities for the pediatric patients. Now, all the volunteers use these
as they visit the patients.
They supported new skate parks in 2 communities with grants of $10,500 and
$50,000
The Bullying Prevention program put on at the Sturgis Middle School.
$2,450 was awarded to the Bluewater Thumb Youth for Christ. Funds were
used for equipment and renovations within a building used by the group to
provide positive activities for teenagers.

GRCF's Donor Relations Director met with the YGC on three
occasions in 01-02. With his assistance, the YGC engaged in a
three-step fund development process. They developed a case
statement, "You should donate to the GRCF Youth Fund
because it provides funding for programs that address youth
needs
while
teaching
leadership,
philanthropy, and
responsibility." Secondly, the YGC identified potential donors
(or prospects) and selected a set of prospects to approach.
Finally, the YGC drafted an appeal letter and followed up each
donation with a thank_you letter and phone call.
Although the YAC has designed a fund development brochure,
it was not used this year. However, Y AC members participated
in the adult board's fund raising golf outing.

learning ways to do youth endowment fund development.
Currently they volunteer for fundraising activities, however they
do not conduct any of their own.
Very occasionally, a YAC member will accompany a director on
a fundraising call. However, they have initiated a number of
fundraisers themselves, most especially a cookie-baking project
in which they took over a school kitchen to bake cookies, then
sold them the next day at a Foundation fundraiser held by a local
car dealer who offered free oil change to everyone who would
contribute at least $20 to the Foundation. The fundraiser not
only included oil changes, but coupons for car washes and other
services for auto owners. YAC members also pitched in by
vacuuming and cleaning cars that came in for the oil change.
The YAC members also raked leaves for elderly and disabled
people last fall; aski~g, as payment, pet food and supplies for the
local animal shelter.
They do work on projects for area service clubs and put the

(PLEASE NOTE TIDS IS A CONFIDENTIAL COVER MEMO)
Ranny Riecker will not receive this cover memo until Monday, September 30, in order that
we may surprise her with the information provided below after Senator Alan Simpson
speaks on Sunday evening. We are asking that you consider this memo as an addition to
the Minutes of the September 9, 2002 Executive Committee included herein.
The Executive Committee has approved the following resolution for creation of the
Margaret Ann (Ranny) Riecker Leadership F und.

�Memo to Board of Trustees
September 20, 2002
Page 2

With the leadership of President Emeritus Dottie Johnson and support from eight members
(W.K. Kellogg Foundation, C.S. Mott Foundation, The Herbert H. &amp; Grace A. Dow Foundation,
Harry A. and Margaret D. Towsley Foundation, The Rollin M . Gerstacker Foundation, The
Charles J. Strosacker Foundation, the Peter and Julie Cummings Foundation, and F. M artin and
Dorothy A. Johnson Fund of the Grand Haven Area Community Foundation) one million dollars
has been committed to this Fund. As with all of our endowment funds, additional contributions
to this Fund will be welcome but not solicited.

RESOLVED that in recognition of your 26 plus years of service as a Founding
Trustee of the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF), and as the only individual
to have twice been Chair of the Board, and for your continued enthusiasm and
dedication to both CMF and to philanthropy in Michigan, the Board of Trustees
does hereby create the Margaret Ann (Ranny) Riecker Leadership Fund.
Permanently endowed, this Fund will support activities necessary to insure the
organization's leadership role in increasing, enhancing and improving philanthropy
in Michigan.
Adopted with appreciation September 9, 2002
The following background statement was provided to the targeted funders listed above.
Background
As a Trustee and Officer of both the Harry A. and Margaret D. Towsley Foundation and the
Herbert H. and Grace A. Dow Foundation, Ranny has served more than 26 years as a founding
Trustee of the Council of Michigan Fow1dations.
Usually serving in a leadership position, Ranny completed her first tour of duty as Chair of the
CMF Board of Trustees in 1984. In 2001 she completed her second tour of duty as Chair; this
time leading the organization through the search process for its second President in the
organization's history.
Through the years, R anny has served as Chair and committee member on just about all of CMF's
committees. She is perhaps best known for her interest in and leadership of the Government
Relations Committee, which has completed more than 25 legislative goals. CMF's annual
Legislative Goals Statement serves as a model for other regional associations of grantmakers.
Her coordination and creation ofthe William Allen Fund has insured that CMF annually
conducts a visit by Michigan grantmakers with our Congressional delegation in Washington.
Other highlights of her Committee leadership include:
• As Chair of Membership Services, helping CMF become the largest regional association
of grantmakers in the country;
• Through her work with the Family Foundations Committee, aiding CMF in strengthening
its services to family foundations;
• As chair for two Annual Conferences, providing dynamic sessions on
topics important to Michigan grantmakers;

�Memo to Board of Trustees

•

•

Through participation in the Improving and Increasing Philanthropy Committee,
encouraging CMF to take a leadership role in responding to members requests for
collaborative grantrnaking to deal with statewide issues; and
Sharing her vision for philanthropy in Michigan by leading CMF through three Strategic
Planning efforts.

In partnership with its members, CMF continues to play a leadership role in making Michigan
one of the top states for philanthropy in the nation. Yet, changing economic conditions, the role
of technology and the intergenerational transfer of wealth are but three of the indicators forcing
great change in both the state and organized grantmaking. CMF needs flexible funds that will
allow it to respond on behalf of its members to these challenges in a timely manner.
Ideally, the Margaret Ann (Ranny) Riecker Leadership Fund will generate $50,000 annually,
based on a one million dollar endowment. The purpose of the Fund will be to recognize
innovative leadership that increases, enhances and improves philanthropy in the state of
Michigan. Examples of programs, which may meet the criteria, include:
•
•
•
•

Strengthening a state legislative network (an issue of utmost importance to Ranny);
Providing partial funding for research, such as the Private Foundation Payout Study;
Sponsoring leadership training for both new and experienced grantmakers on public
policy issues; and
Provide partial support for the next generation learning about philanthropy, through
programs s ut:h as CMF's Learning to Give, that encourages young people (K- 12) lo learn
the value of service and giving of their time and resources.

These ideas are only exan1ples. Rarmy and the Board of Trustees have always encouraged CMF
to be entrepreneurial, responsive and a leader in the field. The Margaret Ann (Ranny) Riecker
Leadership Fund would provide CMF with the flex ible resources to continue and strengthen this
mission.

Well, as you can see this will be a memorable Conference and a productive Board Meeting.
Please let Rob know if you have any questions about the Ranny Fund. It will be a special
surprise, and we appreciate your help in making it happen.
Please let Sue Cuddington know at 616.842.7080 if you have any logistical needs. We will
have sandwiches and snacks for anyone that is not able to participate in the networking
lunches from noon to 1:30 p.m.
We look forward to seeing you at the Grand!

who presented the Audit Report for the fiscal year ending March 31 , 2002. Ms. Van
De Weert stated there were no significant find ings in the recent audit and that a
management letter was not being issued. She noted this was the first-year that CMF had
an OMB A-133 audit, which is required when you spend at least $300,000 annually in
federal funds. Two issues resulting from that audit have been addressed by CMF
management and will be reviewed again next year by PWC.
Upon motion duly made, supported, and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED that the PricewaterhouseCoopers March 31, 2002 &amp; 2001 Audit
Report, as r ecommended by the CMF Audit &amp; Finance Committee, be

statements for the year ending March 31 , 2002.

RESOLVED that the Council of Michigan Foundations' and Support
Organizations' March 31, 2002 internal fin ancial report, as recommended by
the CMF Audit &amp; Finance C ommittee, be approved.
Investment Report
David Lindberg presented the March 31, 2002 Investment Report. He noted, that while
the money market account interest rates have fallen in the past year, the Investment
Committee has reviewed other options and feels the money market is still the best option
at this time. He noted the Investment Committee has recently switched to the Lipper
returns for benchmarking, which are based on active managers grouped by the
appropriated asset class (LargeCap, MidCap etc.).

Bylaws would allow the election of officers to be held in conjunction with the election of
new Trustees at the Annual Meeting This change would also result in a savings because
new stationary would need to be printed once a year instead of twice, as now required.

with unpaid 2001 dues, are being dropped as well. CMF will send membership
recruitment information, including the new tri-fold brochure, to these foundations. In
addition, six community foundation affiliates are being dropped from independent

Trustees to identify potential members from both the Membership Campaign 2002 List

foundations distributed at this m eeting. By making personal contact with two names on
the list, every Trustee can help CMF meet its goal of attracting 35 new members this
year. Mr. Hudson requested Trustees complete the fax back form at the meeting or return
it to Jeri Fischer within two weeks. Jeri will send membership packets to the Trustees
based on their proposed contacts.
Annual Conference Report
Program Committee Co-Chair Kari Schlachtenhaufen reported the 30th Annual
Conference Program is taking shape rapidly with the registration packet to be m ailed by
mid July. As of June 13, 250 individuals have already registered for the conference. The
confinn ed plenary speakers are: Susan Stamberg, Dr. Mae Jemisen, and former U .S.

the Mackinac Island Community Foundation, has designed 14 tours and an interactive
Host Event.

In addition, Ms. Howbe1t highlighted the Family Foundation Retreat, scheduled prior to
the 301h Annual Conference. Judy Healey will lead an interactive workshop on
governance, and family issues. Michael Brandwein will focus on practical
communication skills that can be used to build better and stronger family foundation
teams. For the first time, a youth grantmaking experience will be offered to family
foundation participants ages 8 to 18, with the help of the Mackinac Island Community
Foundation Youth Action Team. More than 70 registrations have already been received
for the Retreat.

Government Relations Report
Committee Co-Chair Libby Maynard and Mr. Collier reported on the numerous
legislative activities happening in Washington and Michigan. The CARE Act, Senate
Bill 1924, is starting to move in the Senate with support from the White House. Senators
Levin and Stabenow are supportive of the provisions for philanthropy in the Bill but, due
to concerns about other aspects within it, will not sign on as co-sponsors. In addition, the
Corporate and Accounting: Accountability and Transparency Act, H.R. 3763, passed the
House with a philanthropy amendment that will add new reporting requirements for
corporate philanthropy. CMF and the Council on Foundations are working to insure that
the Senate version of the Bill does not include these provisions.
In Lansing, the State's financial budget may result in a reduced allocation from the
proposed $4 million for the Tobacco Settlement Partnership. With the assistance of
Duane Tamacki, CMF legal counsel, Public Affairs Associates - our advocates in
Lansing, and the Community Foundations Committee, CMF has submitted language for a
new definition of endowment for the Department of Treasury to use in their certification
process for the tax credit. The new definition is being reviewed by Treasury's legal staff.
Finally, Ms. Maynard noted the first meeting of the Bi-Partisan Philanthropy Caucus has
been postponed until after the November election.

Learning to Give Report
Dr. Mawby, Chair of the National Advisory Committee, explained that LTG Executive
Director, Kathy Agard, continues her work from Maryland where she is w ith her
critically ill son. Kathy returned to Michigan earlier this week to join him in a
presentation to the State Board of Education. The Board provided a unanimous resolution
of endorsement for LTG, which will be helpful as it expands across the nation. LTG is
hosting three Teacher Institutes this summer, all of which are over-subscribed. Ferris
State University is now offering a masters degree with emphasis in philanthropy. At the
Federal level, Congressman Peter Hoekstra recently introduced a bill to reauthorize the
Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS). CNCS may be another
source of funding for LTG.

Community Foundation Report
Vice-Chair Diana Sieger and Trustee Patricia Reynolds presented the proposed Energy
Efficiency Partnership with the Public Services Commission. It was noted that
Commission staff had approached CMF about this proposed Partnership after the
Commissioners had gone on public record stating their interest in endowing some of the
projected $300 million payout over the next five years for the Low Income and Energy
Assistance Fund.
The Community Foundations Committee along with CMF legal counsel has modeled the
plan for this endowment initiative on the Tobacco Settlement Partnership. The
Committee proposes an $80 million commitment but has determined a minimum of $30
million is needed to insure that all participating community foundations receive enough
funds to launch a viable Energy Efficiency endowment. CMF would receive a fee to
administer the Energy Efficiency Partnership.
The Board reached consensus that CMF should increase its proposed administrative fee
to cover reasonable administrative and evaluation costs be subject to reimbursement and
that the motion be amended to reflect the goal of $80 million. In addition staff will do
further research on the feasibility of distributing the funds based on low income
population statistics.

Upon motion duly made, supported and approved, with one opposed and S.
Martin Taylor abstaining from the vote, it was
RESOLVED that the Energy Efficiency Partnership be proposed to the
Public Services Commission with a goal of distributing $80 million, but not
less than $30 million, from the Commission through the Council of Michigan
Foundations to certified community foundations to establish endowed
Energy Efficiency Funds.
Strategic Planning
As a follow-up to the Strategic Plan, Mr. Rappleye introduced Technology Task Force
Co-Convener Tim Dechant, from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, Mike Thompson of
Information Technology Partners, and Gail Powers-Schaub, who presented the three-year
CMF Technology Strategy and Workplan with a projected budget of just under $500,000.
Chair Campbell noted that a fundraising plan will be developed during the swmner and
presented to the Board at the September Meeting. It was noted that CMF's existing
technology platfonn can be built upon and enhanced with several examples provided of
how member benefits can be enhanced by the proposed Technology Workplan.

�CMF Board of Trustees
Minutes of June 14, 2002
Page 8

Upon motion duly made, supported! and unanimously approved, it was
RESOLVED that the Technology Strategy and Workplan be accepted with
appreciation expressed to the three Technology Task Force Co-Conveners,
(Mr. Dechant, Richard Dunlap from the Kresge Foundation and Gavin
Claybaugh from the C.S. Mott Foundation) and Task Force members.
President's Report
Mr. Collier referred to the lengthy President's Report in the Board Meeting packet and
asked Susan Howbert to comment on the training being offered by Boston College's
Center for Corporate Citizenship in Dearborn with support from AAA, Comerica, and the
Detroit Regional Chamber. The course is oversubscribed with 34 registered. He then
asked the Trustees and staff present to join him in thanking Jeri Fischer who completed
20 years of service to CMF on June 1.

President's Report

It has been a busy summer filled with educational and networking activities since we last
met at the Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park. Please let me know if you would like
additional information on any of these items.

Staff News
I am pleased to report that Toni French has joined the staff as Operations Associate
working with Vicki, Gail, Jeri and Judy. Toni has done a great job of stepping in for Pam
Bitzer on Annual Conference logistics. Toni breeds boxer dogs, is a NASCAR and avid
sports fan- and best of all according to Vicki, she is quite unflappable.
Pam Bitzer is on medical leave for six weeks but will return in October.
Kathy Agard continues to work from Bethesda with one week a month in Muskegon, while
her son undergoes intensive treatment at the National institute of Health. She appreciates
our prayers and support.

Conferences and Meetings
June 21-23 MCFYP Annual Youth Leadership Conference, Central Michigan University
Our 1Oth Annual Conference included youth grantrnakers from Rhode Island, Virginia, the
District of Columbia, Ohio, Arkansas, and New Mexico in the group of 150 that gathered.
The results of the Conference are on the Michigan Community Foundations Youth Project
website at www.mcfyp.org and feature Great Grants, Best Practices for Youth
Grantmakers, Diversity Recommendations and the Youth Ethics Bowl.
June 26-28 The Institute on Corporate Community Relations, Dearborn
Thirty-six corporate grantmakers participated in the Institute on Corporate Community
Involvement, flagship course of the Center for Corporate Citizenship at Boston College.
Thanks to the support of AAA of Michigan and Comerica, CMF was able to sponsor this
wonderful offering for corporate grantmakers at a greatly reduced price. Due to the
positive response to the Institute and the eagerness of the participants to receive Boston
College certification, Susan Howbert is working with the Center for Corporate Citizenship
to set the dates for two more certificate training courses to be offered in Southeast Michigan
in 2003. The courses to be offered are: Strategic Planning and Evaluating and Measuring
Programs and Strategies.

Since it was formed by a group of grant makers in 1989, MAF bas raised and awarded more than $7 million in
grants and other resources to prevent the spread ofHIV/ AlDS and alleviated suffering by those affected and infected
with the d isease in Michigan. MAF has supported programs with demonstrable success such as community and
street outreach to runaways, homeless and incarcerated youth and others at-risk, peer education programs
encouraging healthy lifestyles, emergency assistance for people who are HIV positive, and prevention and o utreach
specific to the African-American, Latino, and Arab American communities.
MAF awarded grants to 25 organizations throughout Michigan totaling $729,500. Examples of these grants are:
$20,000 to Community AIDS Resource and Education Services (CARES) of
Southwest Michigan for case management services
$25,000 to Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians in Sault Ste. Marie for
education and prevention services
$ 12,258 to Hearth Home in Flint for prevention for youth
$20,000 to Hispanics Against AIDS in Grand Rapids for prevention activities
$50,000 to AIDS Partnership Michigan for a medication adherence program
AIDS Walk Michigan
At the end of2000, the MAF Board of Directors decided to move from a consultant-based, to a staff supported
organization. In January 200 I, the first full-time Executive Director employed by MAF was hired, and a Program
Officer and Program Assistant were hired by mid 200 I. An administrative office was opened in Southfield, Ml in
mid 200 I to house the MAF staff.
T he work of the Michigan AIDS Fund conti nues because:
As of April2002, an estimated 15,500 Michigan residents were living with HIV/AIDS
There are anywhere from 800 to I ,200 new infections every year
Nearly 6,000 Michigan men, women and children have died of the disease

�Section Three: Membership Campaigns
Eleven foundations were identified as potential members from a list attached to the June
14, 2002 Board meeting materials. We are grateful to Trustees, Bob Aronson, Ted Doan,
Louis Felton, Libby Maynard, Pattie Reynolds and Amanda VanDusen for their help in
contacting these found ations. At present, none of these contacts resu lted in new members.
However, there has been some interest to learn more from a few contacts.
On September 6, 2002, a mailing was sent to over 600 family foundations under Rob and
Julie Cumming's signatures. A specially crafted recruitment brochure for family
foundations, return envelope and a sample document (Common Report Form), excerpted
from the newly released Documents for Family Foundations, completed the package. We
look forward to welcoming some new members as a result of this work.
December 2002 marks the release of the 13th edition of The Michigan Foundation
Direct01y. Directory information on newly fonned foundations gives us the opportunity
(January 2003) to reach out to grantmakers and infonn them about CMF programs and
servtces.
We appreciate your assistance and that of the Membership Committee in these recruitment
efforts. Many thanks as we work to interest more grantmakers in the value of CMF.

Fall 2002 Learning to Give Update

Chair, Learning to Give
Steering Committee Member
Steering Committee Member
Steering Committee Member
Steering Committee Member
Executive Director

The Learning to Give (LTG) initiative enjoyed a busy summer of teacher
professional development, the writing of new units, LTG presentations,
and completion of the second evaluation cycle. The Steering Committee
meets again in November. This Progress Report is presented in seven
sections with Financial Support first because it is a critical issue as we go
forward.
I.

Financial Support

Financial Projections
Without further foundation support, LTG is projected to expend all of its
current funds by June 2003. Due to contractual requirements, plans for
closure of the program will need to begin in February if further support is
not secured.
Federal Funds
A decision on the federal Character Education grant is expected by early
October. There has been no further word regarding access to Character
Education technical assistance funds or for funding LTG as a national
demonstration.
The Corporation for National Service bill for increased funding (with
leadership from Representative Peter Hoekstra), is languishing in
Congress. If passed, LTG could benefit from the availability of new funds.
Foundation Support
CMF's President and LTG's Executive Director met with both the W.K.
Kellogg Foundation and The Lilly Endowment during August. The current
Kellogg grant ends December 31, 2002. The Lilly Endowment discussion
covered 2001-2003 grant changes because funding from The Atlantic
Philanthropies and the Ford Foundation was not obtained.

�The Lilly Endowment Program Officer approved the needed changes to
their $1 million grant and suggested that LTG submit a request for
additional funding based on the Initiative's successful history. The W.K.
Kellogg Foundation meetings provided insight for L TG's pending grant
request that will include a formal business plan, a restatement of the case
and demand for K-12 philanthropy education, and evaluation results to
date.
II .

Content and Lesson Progress

National Content Advisory Committee
The National Content Advisory Committee, sponsored by The Fetzer
Institute, will meet for the second time at the end of October. Dr. Robert
Bremner from Ohio State University has retired from the committee as a
result of illness, and Susan Wisely, former Program Officer from the Lilly
Endowment, has joined the Committee.
Units and Lessons
Over 130 new lessons (across 33 units at the four grade levels) have been
submitted from the 2002 Michigan Summer Institute, Ohio Summer
Institute, Michigan Performing Arts Seminar (Voluntary Action for the
Common Good through the Arts), and our ten summer writers/Teacher
Consultants. These lessons will go into the editing process and be available
for placement on the Learning to Give Web site by Spring, 2003. Each of
the 321 Learning to Give philanthropy benchmarks is now available in at
least one sample lesson plan.
Field-Testing
Field-testing evaluations for school year 2001-2002 are being analyzed and
the units still requiring field-testing have been sent to the volunteer field-test
teachers. Just over 51% of the current 504 lessons on the Web site have
completed the field-test phase.
Two changes have been made in the field-testing process. First, the
majority of the field-testing is now being completed in the thirty-three pilot
schools. This has greatly improved the lesson evaluation "return rate."
Second, the number of field-tests per lesson has recently been reduced
from five to three.
Barring any extremely negative response, three
independent written evaluations of the lessons are sufficient to judge the
usefulness and quality of a lesson.
These changes do not preclude teachers volunteering to field test Learning
to Give lessons. In fact, LTG has experienced a large increase (190) in
teachers volunteering to field-test via the Web site's home page application
form which has recently added a feature allowing teachers to review the
"Unit Purpose" and "key words" to choose the two units that would be most
applicable in their specific classroom.

�Pilot Schools
The thirty-three pilot schools began teaching their second (and in one case
third) year of LTG as of the 2002-2003 school year this fall. During the next
three months, LTG staff will be meeting with teachers in each of the schools
to help them launch their philanthropy teaching and to assist them in any
way.
One of the pilot school districts, Romulus Public Schools, has decided to
formally integrate LTG lessons into their K-6 required Social Studies core
curriculum.

A one-day workshop to introduce LTG to Tampa, Florida schools,
sponsored by the local chapter of the Association of Fund-Raising
Professionals, was presented in June with a second meeting in September
to pursue integration of LTG into a multi-state Lutheran Schools system.
A one-day workshop to introduce LTG to Appleton, Wisconsin schools,
sponsored by the Community Foundation for the Fox Valley Region and the
Milke Family Foundation, was presented in July. LTG staff will return to
discuss the K-12 integration of LTG in the Appleton schools during 20022003 and a possible Wisconsin summer institute for teachers during the
summer of 2003.
Ferris State University Masters Degree of Education in
Curriculum and Instruction with a Concentration in
Philanthropic Studies
LTG and Ferris State University successfully launched the new 36-hour
Masters Degree in Education with a concentration in philanthropic studies in
the first Grand Rapids, Ml residential seminar held July 28-August 61h.
Seven teachers started in the new class (even though Ferris Board
approval was not received until just prior to the residential course segment).
It is anticipated this program will grow over time, resulting in the first M.Ed.
that provides K-12 teachers with a background in philanthropy.

�IV. Univers ity Partnerships
Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University
The Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University's partnership with LTG
has been finalized. Nancy Bell is the coordinator for Learning to
Give- Indiana reporting directly to Dwight Burlingame, Associate Executive
Director of the Center, Learning to Give founder, and member of the LTG
Steering Committee. She is actively recruiting twenty schools as LTG
partners in Indiana, raising financial support for the Project, and preparing
for the first Indiana Summer Teacher's Institute scheduled for June 16-19,
2003.
Center on Philanthropy Symposium on Youth Philanthropy
The Center hosted a national symposium on Youth and Philanthropy
August 22-23 which included two LTG presentations and the Michigan
Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP). The presentations were
well received and the LTG staff are following up on a number of promising
leads generated from these interactive sessions. The symposium also
provided an excellent first-time opportunity for representatives from the
emerging projects in Ohio (LTG- Ohio) and New Hampshire (L TG- New
Hampshire) to strategize with L TG- Michigan and LTG-Indiana.
Dorothy A. Johnson Center on PhilanthropyGrand Valley State University
The relationship with the Johnson Center at GVSU has been finalized in a
grant proposal to the U.S. Department of Education for financial support
from the new federal Character Education funds. The grant request is a
joint venture between the: Muskegon Area Intermediate School District
(grantee); CMF through LTG; Michigan Virtual University; and Grand Valley
State Universities' Johnson Center and School of Education. If funded, this
three-year request would provide $400,000 in support to LTG; would
support the launch of the GVSU partnership; and would result in a selfpaced online tutorial for teachers to be developed and implemented on the
LTG Web site. Representative Pete Hoekstra has submitted a letter
supporting the application. A decision is expected by early October.
The grant model involves working with the University to hire a part-time staff
person, and then to raise local resources to support the work at the
university. The local resources show good faith that LTG is a program
desired by community leaders. In addition, some funding will be secured to
help cover ongoing expenses for L TG's leadership and technical
assistance.
Mandel Center at Case Western Reserve
The Mandel Center at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) in
Cleveland, Ohio has expressed interest in serving as the LTG lead in the
State of Ohio. CWRU sponsored a second successful Summer Institute for

background in philanthropy education. Their base is now large enough to
utilize these trained Teacher-Consultants as peer educators in future LTG
Summer Institutes, and in advocating for LTG in the Ohio schools
University of New Hampshire &amp; Philanthropy Resources
Unlimited
Philanthropy Resources Unlimited, Inc., under the direction of LTG Teacher
Consultant Nancy Nadeau, supported the cost of a one-day Learning to
Give orientation for New Hampshire teachers, and the University of New
Hampshire provided free meeting space. From this workshop, a K-5 school
building in New Hampshire has volunteered to serve as a partner schoolteaching at least two philanthropy units at every grade level for at least
three years. LTG staff will provide an inservice and assist teachers in
selecting lessons that support the school's curriculum at a workshop
scheduled for September 25th. We anticipate that this "early adopter"
school will serve as a model for future New Hampshire schools.

V. Evaluat ions=Prel im inary Re su lts

The evaluation report for 2000-2002 will be reviewed by the Steering
Committee at their November meeting. Highlights are included here.
Teacher Reporting on Student Achievement of Lesson Objectives
Specifically through our pilot test school relationships, we have data
confirming that 4,844 students were taught a Learning to Give unit during
the fall of 2001 in 25 different school buildings across Michigan, K-12.

53.5% Mastered and Exceeded the Learning Objectives
33.0% Mastered the Learning Objectives
9.1% Adequately Completed the Learning Objectives
95.6% of the almost 5,000 K-12 students taught LTG lessons
adequately completed or mastered the lesson objectives
Source: written feedback forms on student achievement submitted by K-12
teachers participating in the piloting of LTG lessons at each grade level in
their school building.
Teacher Survey Responses on Importance of Philanthropy Education
Pilot Teachers report the "philanthropy education is a valuable part of the
standard curriculum for students in their school"

28% Vitally important
62% Very important
90% of the pilot teachers, after teaching two units on
philanthropy believe philanthropy education is very
important to students.

�Source: 2001-2002 written survey conducted by Michigan State University
and completed annually by pilot teachers involved in Learning to Give.
Independent Review of Original Student Work Required by the Units
'There is evidence across all grade levels (grades 3-12) that students have
learned the definition of philanthropy and can identify local, national, and
international philanthropic organizations."

"Responses (in student work) offered by a small majority of students
illustrates that many are moving beyond rote knowledge to individualized
application of the content."
"It seems that many students understand that philanthropic behavior is
possible throughout a lifetime and can occur in a variety of situations and
for a variety of purposes."
"In addition to learning the definition of philanthropy and philanthropic
organizations, analysis indicates that students are learning how
philanthropic principles intersect with Core Democratic Values. Most
students are able to list the values, provide examples of each from their
daily lives and suggest ways that individuals can enact these values."
Source: 2001-2002 independent review of original sample student work
from pilot
schools scored by evaluators at Michigan State University.
Interviews with School Administrators and Curriculum Directors
"The majority of the respondents believed the LTG lessons lead to
improvement in students'
• knowledge of philanthropy (definition, purpose and history)

•

ability to identify and enactment of Core Democratic Values

•

preparation for the Michigan Educational Assessment Program test

•

understanding of the rights and responsibilities of different
community sectors."

"The majority of respondents also believed that LTG lessons had a
beneficial effect on student behavior. Examples given included:
• greater attendance at community service events
•

increased demonstrations of respect and concern for others

•

enhanced student engagement in class discussions"

�Journal Entries from Participating Teachers Regarding Student
Expectations
'Teachers were asked to consider the impact of the Learning to Give
lessons on their students. Responses fell into three broad categories. Most
common were expectations about individual growth and development, with
the emphasis being on being stronger, empowered, empathetic, and caring
individuals. Also important, but less often cited was a hope for involvement
in, and service to, the community. Finally, many teachers also noted a
specific goal for their students to understand and practice philanthropy."

Memo to:

David Campbell, Chair, and Members ofthe Board of Trustees

From:

Libby Maynard &amp; David Kennedy, Co-Chairs
Rob Collier, President

Re:

Government Relations Committee Report

The Committee met on August 28 for its annual conference call to review the Legislative
Goals Statement and consider new goals. Five Committee members were on the call and
three members submitted comments on the Statement by email. The following resolution
is presented for your consideration and approval.
RESOLVED that the Legislative Goals Statement be adopted for 2002 with
the changes as duly noted in the text- a copy of which is attached - and with
the addition of Goal14 to the National Legislative Issues and Goal 5 to the
State Legislative Issues.
Background
I. New Legislative Goals
Mr. Collier presented two new goals for consideration. There was agreement by the
Committee that the new Goal 5 for State Legislative Issues be adopted as presented
below.
Proposed Goal 5 - State Legislative Issues
Goal: To monitor administration of the pennanent community foundation tax credit
and its relationship to other existing and proposed tax credits.
Explanation: As a result of term limits CMF staff are continually working with
legislators to explain the tax credit and the role of community foundations. There is
an on-going effort by other nonprofit sector groups such as hospitals, schools and
community development corporations to obtain targeted tax credits without
acknowledgement of the potential to meet their needs through the existing community
foundation tax credit. Research is underway at the University of Michigan to
detennine the role of tax credits in stimulating giving and to investigate the
hypothesis that too many tax credit options will detract from giving.

�Government Relations Agenda
August 22, 2002

In addition the certification process with the Department of Treasury needs to be
monitored. For example, this year the definition of endowment in the community
foundation tax credit certification has been changed at the recommendation of CMF's
Community foundations Committee to fit national standards for community
foundations as adopted by the Council on Foundations.
The Committee decided that the proposed Goal 14 for national legislative issues be
amended with either the deletion of the reference to civil society or language added.
Therefore, Goal 14 is being presented by staff, as amended in this document without
Committee approval at this time. We are still recommending it for your consideration
and action.
Proposed Goal 14 for National Legislative Issues
Goal: To support efforts to incorporate philanthropy as an objective of legislation
providing financial resources to character education and other K-12 educational
initiatives.
Explanation: CMF was successful in 2002 through the Learning to Give initiative in
having the word "giving" added to the definition of character education in the
Education Bill signed by President Bush. Learning to Give is now working with
national partners and universities to ensure that giving is incorporated in new
character education programs funded by the Department of Education. Although
philanthropy enjoys bi-partisan support in Congress, ongoing educational effort is
needed to insure that federal resources eventually support programs implementing the
goals of Learning to Give.

11. Legislative Goals Statement

The Committee approved presentation ofthe enclosed document for your consideration
and approval. Changes made to update action on certain goals are in bold.

III. Washington and Lansing Update

We need to encourage all members to join in the February visit to the Hill. 2003 is
shaping up as a challenging year for philanthropy. Here are just some of the reasons
why.
A major victory in Congress was passing of the Corporate and Accounting:
Accountability and Transparency Act without the LaFalce Amendment passed by the
House that would have impacted corporate philanthropy. This issue is expected to
resurface in 2003 with new proposed legislation to regulate corporate giving.

�Government Relations Agenda
August 22, 2002

The CARE Act, that includes the IRA Charitable rollover provision, is still stuck in the
Senate and unlikely to see action in 2002 due to the backlog of homeland security issues.
CMF will work with the Council on Foundations to support a separate bill in 2003 just
for the IRA Charitable Rollover.
Dot Ridings reported that she expects hearings in 2003, due in part to both the ENRON
issues and the release of a study expected this fall by Georgetown University on
compensation abuse by private foundations. D espite the down market, the issue of the
payout rate of 5% will likely be considered as well in an effort to exclude administrative
expenses from the payout calculation.
In Lansing, we hope to have the first meeting of the Bi-Partisan Philanthropy Caucus in
early December or January, depending on the decision to hold a lame duck session.
According to political pundit, Bill Ballenger, who wi ll be speaking at the Annual
Conference, this election is causing the biggest turnover in state government in 60 plus
years. The Committee will work with staff on a series of educational activities for new
legislators and their staff in early 2003.
Finally, as you know the courts have decided to allow the proposed constitutional
amendment concerning the Tobacco Settlement to be placed on the November ballot. In
keeping with policy, management has informed the members that CMF is not taking a
position on this ballot issue. CMF is mentioned in the language as the potential recipient
of2% of the Tobacco Settlement Funds. The language does not include reference to the
regranting of these funds to 65 certified community foundations. While we appreciate
the recognition of this successful partnership with the State, we were not informed of the
decision to include us on the ballot, and there is no guarantee that the allocation will
equal the amount currently allocated by the legislature.

COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS
Legislative Goals Statement
The purpose of the Council of Michigan Foundations' Government Relations Committee is to
seek support for legislative changes at both the state and national levels that encourage the role
and effectiveness offoundation and corporate philanthropy.
The CMF Board of Trustees approved the initial Legislative Statement on March 1, 1979.
Revised statements were approved September 19, 1980; January 27, 1982; May 10, 1983; June
14, 1985; April 12, 1988; February 25, 1992; November 4, 1992; November 8, 1995; October
30, 1996; March 13, 1997; November 4, 1998; October 14, 1999; October 2, 2000, October 2,
2001, and September 29, 2002.

I. PHILANTHROPY IN MICHIGAN AND AMERICA
Foundation and corporate giving has long been a unique part of American society. Today, with a
slowing in the economy, foundations and corporations are being challenged to increase their
support and charitable donations in the face of program changes initiated by national, state, and
local governments, as well as increased needs. In the face of this challenge, it is apparent that
more can and should be done to encourage the creation and growth of new foundations and
corporate giving programs, as well as to reduce the operating regulatory burdens on existing
foundations and corporate giving programs.
Unfortunately, the 1969 Tax Act, while introducing a number of reforms, also erected a number
of major barriers to foundation philanthropy. These include the provisions that serve as
disincentives for the creation of new foundations , as well as provisions that discourage charitable
donations to existing foundations. It has become apparent that a number of Intemal Revenue
Service Code regulations, based on the 1969 Tax Act, have proven to be unnecessarily restrictive
on the grantmaking effectiveness of Michigan's more than 2,000 foundations, as well as the
more than 56,000 other foundations in communities across the United States.
If foundations and corporations are to expand their support of important social needs and
programs, the Council of Michigan Foundations must work actively to infom1 the general public,
as well as state and federal legislators, and other policymakers on these important issues. In
1977, the Members ofCMF directed the Board ofTrustees to develop a public information
program that would support and encourage Michigan foundation philanthropy and include
communication with public policymakers. A Government Relations Committee was established
to implement the program and has continued to survey CMF Members on their legislative
interests and priorities on a timely basis.

�CMF has worked with foundation and corporate M embers, the Council on Foundations, other
regional associations of grantmakers and the Forum of Regional Associations of Grantmakers,
Independent Sector, Michigan Nonprofit Association, and other nonprofit organizations to
enhance the understanding of public policymakers about foundation philanthropy and to bring
about appropriate legislative changes in laws and regulations. As a result of these efforts by
CMF and others, the following twenty-five goals have been accomplished:

�IV. NATIONAL LEGISLATIVE ISSUES
1.

Goal: Maintain the private foundation payout rate at not more than 5 percent to protect
the real value of foundations' grantmaking capability.
Explanation: In order to preserve the "real" grantmaking capacity of a private
foundation, it is important that all historical financial data be taken into consideration.
History has shown that a portion of the annual return should be returned to principal.
(Reilly/Skadden, University of Michigan Graduate School of Business Administration
study sponsored by CMF, 1981- Private Foundations: The Payout Requirement and Its
Effect on Investment and Spending Policies, and a DeMarche Associates, Inc. study
"Spending Policies and Investment Planning for Foundations," 1995, sponsored by the
Council on Foundations.) A CMF sponsored study, completed in May 2000, by
Cambridge Associates, Inc., ofthe actual performance of a group of Michigan endowed
private foundations confinns the position of maintaining the payout rate at no more than
5 percent. There continues to be an effort led by the National Committee for
Responsive Philanthropy and the National Network of Grantmakers to have
legislation introduced that would increase the required payout to 61Yo.

2.

Goal: Change the limitation on gifts to a private foundation from 20 percent to 50
percent.
Explanation: Under existing law, the amount deductible by an individual taxpayer for
contributions to private non-operating foundations is computed as a percentage of the

donor's contribution base (in most cases, his or her adjusted gross income). An
individual may deduct only 20 percent of the gifts of appreciated property or 30 percent
of gifts of cash. On the other hand, an individual taxpayer can deduct up to 50 percent of
his contribution base for cash (and 30 percent for appreciated property) for gifts to public
charities.
3.

Goal: Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer for a gift to a private foundation of
certain capital gain property.
Explanation: Individual taxpayers may deduct the full fair market value of a gift to a
private foundation of appreciated property in the form ofpublicly-traded stock, ifthe gift
is less than 10 percent of the outstanding stock of the company. However, in other cases,
such as privately held stock, the amount of deduction continues to be limited to the
donor' s cost or basis in the stock if the gift is to a private non-operating foundation. The
same gift to a public charity entitles the taxpayer to a full fair market value deduction.

4.

Goal: Repeal the excise tax on private fow1dations.
Explanation: The 1984 Tax Act allows the excise tax on investment income to be
reduced from two to one percent if a foundation's payout for the year in question equals
or exceeds an amount equal to the year' s assets, times the average payout percentage for
the five years, plus 1 percent of the foundation's net investment income.

�Private foundations are the only 501(c)(3) organizations that currently pay this federal
tax. The current formula is difficult to administer and can limit charitable giving.
Simplification to a flat one percent is an acceptable intermediate step and is in H.R.7
passed in the summer of 2001 . A similar provision was originally included in
S.B. 1924, the CAR E Act of 2002, but has been dropped at the r equest of the
Council on Foundations due to efforts to tie it to the increase in the payout r ate.
5.

Goal: Prevent further efforts to reduce the usefulness of the charitable deduction and
repeal the three percent floor on itemized deductions.
E xplanation: In 1990, after initially considering a cap on all itemized deductions,
Congress approved a three percent floor in deductions. This floor was scheduled to
expire at the end of 1995, but was made pem1anent effective in 1993.

6.

Goal: Limit lineal descendants who are "disqualified persons" at the level of
grandchildren.
Explanation: In 1984, the law was amended to limit "disqualified persons" to
substantial contributors to a foundation and their children, grandchildren, great
grandchildren, and their spouses. The amendment provided that substantial contributors
will no longer be considered "disqualified persons" if, over a ten-year period, they meet
certain requirements to distance themselves from the foundation. However, there is still
no logical rationale - - or examples of abuse- - to justify the inclusion of lineal
descendants beyond the level of grandchildren.

7.

Goal: Modify the law to permit the "out of corpus" requirement to be met by a foreign
grantee if sufficient documentation is provided showing that the full amount of the grant
was spent for the specified purposes within 12 months after the year the grant was made.
E xpla nation : When making grants to some foreign charities, private foundations are
required to treat them as private foundations. Any grant from a private foundation to
another private foundation requires that the amount granted "flow through" the grantee
and out as qualifying distributions that are made "out of corpus" by the end of the
fo llowing year. The purpose for this rule is to prevent a foundation from avoiding the
payout rule by having one private foundation give to another, who then simply adds the
grant to its endowment (corpus), with charitable grantees receiving no benefit. In the
foreign grant context, the grantee rarely has any endowment and totally misunderstands
the concept of "out of corpus."

8.

Goa l: Secure passage of legislation providing a charitable deduction for non-itemizers.
Explan ation: Most taxpayers no longer fi le the long tax fonn that permits itemized
deductions; instead they file the short form that allows only a standard deduction . From
1983 to 1986 non-itemizers were permitted to take the standard deduction plus itemize
charitable contributions within certain limits, but the deduction expired January 1, 1987.
In July 2001 the House passed H.R. 7 with support from the President that includes a
phased in deduction over ten years from $25 to $100.
Revisions 2002
Page 4

�The C.A.R.E. Act, S.B. 1924, introduced by Senators Lieberman and Santorum in
2002, includes a similar modest introduction of a deduction. Despite bipartisan
support and the support of the President, the Bill is unlikely to be passed by the
Senate because research indicates that there will only be .15 cents in new giving
generated as a result of each dollar lost to the federal government by having the
proposed deduction.
9.

Goal: Support reasonable limits on the degree to which foundations and charities can
lobby or otherwise influence public policy decisions and oppose unreasonable limits that
adversely affect grantmaking.
Explanation: Continuous monitoring is essential to oppose unreasonable and
unnecessary regulatory reporting burdens on both foundations and their grantees.

10.

Goal: Support legislation to eliminate the classification of realized gains and income,
derived from leveraged real estate investments by foundations, as unrelated business
taxable income.
Explanation: Foundations and nonprofit organizations are significant investors in the
real estate market. However, income derived from leveraged real estate investments,
owned directly or through partnerships, is currently taxed as unrelated business taxable
income (UBTI). Private foundations should be treated in the same manner as educational
organizations and qualified pension plans, which since 1980 have been exempt from the
debt-financed property rules with respect to the acquisition of certain real property.

11.

Goal: Pennit tax-free distribution from individual retirement accounts (IRAs) for
charitable purposes.
Explanation: It is proposed that direct gifts from an IRA to a charitable organization
would not be taxed as income to the account-holder who has attained the age of 59 1/2
years of age, if the disbursement is made directly to either a qualified charity or a
qualifying deferred giving plan. It is anticipated that such a law would increase
contributions to many charitable organizations, including community foundations. H.R.
7, passed by the House in July 2001, includes the IRA Rollover at age 70 1/2. The
C.A.R.E. Act, includes the IRA Rollover at age 59 1/2, and has bipartisan support as
well as the President's support. However, the Bill is unlikely to advance in this
session due to the high cost of the other items attached such as the Charitable
Nonltemizer.

12.

Goal: Avoid excessive corporate giving regulations.
Explanation: CMF supports public accountability, but not excessive regulation, which
would require costly administration. The House version of the Corporate and
Accounting: Accountability and Transparency Act included three reporting
provisions (all Board service by officers, directors, and significant family members;
all gifts of $10,000 or more; all transactions valued at $10,000 or more) that would
have a negative impact on corporate philanthropy. Working with the Council on
Revisions 2002

�Foundations, CMF was successful in ensuring that this provision was not included
in the Senate version, the version signed into law in the summer of 2002 by the
President.
13.

Goal: Monitor the impact of estate tax legislation passed in 2001 on creation of new
foundations and gifts to existing foundations.
Explanation: The "Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001" passed by the Congress and
signed into law by the President in June 2001, phases out the Estate Tax between 2002
and 20 I 0. Full repeal however is only in effect for the year 2010. The estate tax then
reverts, unless new legislation is passed, to the 2000 tax code status. While it is the
position of CMF to not support or oppose legislation that has a broad impact beyond the
charitable field, it is necessary to monitor the impact on philanthropy of this legislation
and future changes that might be made in the estate tax.
V. STATE LEGISLATIVE ISSUES

1.

Goal: Monitor proposed changes to tax policy concerning the exemptions provided to
non-profit organizations.
Explanation: Legislation has been proposed in Colorado, Pennsylvania and Texas,
which threatens the property tax exemption of charitable organizations. CMF, working
with pattners such as the Michigan Nonprofit Association, will closely monitor any
related efforts in Michigan.

2.

Goal: Support legislation encouraging a tax-deduction for charitable contributions from
individuals.
Explanation: Other states have found that a tax deduction mirroring the federal tax code
does motivate additional gifts by individuals to charities. While the introduction of
legislation in tough economic times is unlikely, the Michigan Nonprofit Association is
taking the lead in promoting this issue with the legislature.

3.

Goal: Monitor legislation necessary for a portion of the state tobacco settlement funds to
be annually granted to CMF for distribution to certified Michigan community
foundations for the establishment of Heal thy Youth &amp; Healthy Senior Funds.
Explanation: Michigan's share of the national tobacco settlement ($206 billion over the
next 26 years) between 46 states, five commonwealths and territories and the District of
Columbia with five tobacco companies, representing 97.5% ofthe industry, is $8.3
billion. The master settlement agreement does not specify how states may spend their
settlement payments. Since 2001, CMF has distributed more that $20 million of
interest earned on the tobacco settlement funds not used for the Merit Scholarship
Program and earmarked annually through the Department of Career Development
budget. Annual advocacy is required to insure that the Legislature understands the
valuable role community foundations play in this distribution and continues the

�annual budgeting aUocation. At this time the State's 2003 budget includes an
aUocation of $3 million.
4.

Goal: Support legislation to simplify the Charitable Solicitations Act.
Explanation: Community foundations are required, as well as other charitable
nonprofits, to file for an ammal solicitation license. The licensing, enforcement, and
appeal processes are not considered user friendly by nonprofits and do not reflect the
changing cost in fundraising. The Michigan Nonprofit Association is leading the
effort on this legislation and expects it to be introduced in 2003.

Memo to:

CMF Board of Trustees

From:

Richard K. Rappleye, Chair- Finance Committee

RE:

CMF &amp; Supporting Organizations 7-31-02 Financial Statements

RESOLVED that the CMF Board of Trustees approve the Council of Michigan
Foundations' and Support Organizations' July 31, 2002 Internal Financial Report, as
recommended by the CMF Audit &amp; Finance Committee.
On September 9, 2002 the CMF Audit &amp; Finance Committee reviewed and approved the
enclosed internal financial statements.

Balance Sheet
In reviewing the Consolidated Balance Sheet you will note an Unrestricted &amp; Temporarily
Restricted Net Asset balance of$5,802,894 which breaks down as follows:

Core operating reserve
Property, plant and equipment
Special projects

$649,000
496,000
4,657,894
$5,802,894

The Core Operating Reserve represents the funds used to cover the daily operating expenses
ofCMF. Throughout the year this balance general runs between $500,000-$650,000.

Consolidated Statement of Activities
Special Projects
Other Grants received for special projects for the current year are made up primarily of funds
received for the Individual Development Accounts (IDA) project. P rogramming and
Administrative expenses are mainly the Learning to Give program costs. Other Grants are
primarily from the Tobacco Settlement grant.
MCFV and Michigan AIDS Fund (MAF)
In addition to the CMF Audit &amp; Finance Committee, the MCFV and MAF Boards are
responsible for reviewing and approving their respective statements.

S:\ Boards and Committees\CMF\Board\2002-03\9.29.02 Meeting Materials\TreasurersRprt.doc

�Member Services
During the 2002-03 budget process, management presented a plan to combine the
Community Foundation Endowment Fund activity with CMF Core Operations starting in
2002-03, to give the Board a clearer picture of the ongoing services being provided to CMF
members. The combination of these two statements is represented in the enclosed Member
Services statement.
Note 1: Member &amp; Additional Member Contributions

Member contributions continue to remain strong through the month of August, with
payments coming in at expected levels. $30,000 of the Additional Member Contribution
represents the contribution from the C.S. Mott Foundation.
Note 2: Other Grants

The budgeted amount for 2002-03 represents the administrative fund s from the latest
Tobacco Settlement grant that will be used to support the Detroit office. $65,000 was
transferred to the Member Services budget in August 2002.
Note 3: Conference Income &amp; Expenses

Attendance for the Annual Conference looks strong with the Grand Hotel near capacity at last
count. Based on the latest financial projections management expects to break even on the
conference.
Note 4: Computer

The technology portion of the strategic plan that was recently unveiled at the June 2002
Board meeting continues making good progress. Management has met several times over the
summ er with the technology consultants, ITP, to lay out a detailed plan of action, with the
bulk of the work to start shortly after the Annual Conference. Under the Executive
Committee minutes in this booklet is a description of the plan to fund this work.
Note 5: Conference &amp; Meetings

The favorable variance is due to the timing of invoices coming in for the Annual Conference.
Note 6: Investment Income

Overall, the earnings on the endowment funds were budgeted at 0% for 2002-03. They are
invested 70% in equities and 30% in fixed income.

Memo to:

CMF Board of Trustees

From:

Herbert (Ted) D. Doan

Re:

CMF 6-30-02 Investment Report

Resolved: That the CMF Board of Trustees accept the June 30, 2002 Investment
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 (MAF), meets to review the investment performance for the
operating and permanent endowment funds. The information contained in this section
was reviewed by the Investment Committee on August 29, 2002.
The enclosed Investment Report has been broken down into three sections.
Investment Performance Report
The benchmark is based on the targeted asset allocation fonnula listed below using the
Lipper median returns provided by Comerica on a quarterly basis.

The Lipper returns are based on the following asset classes.

Lipper Small Cap Core
Lipper International
Lipper Corporate Debt A Rated Fixed Income

�Asset Allocation Report

The Investment Committee has approved an asset allocation re-balancing policy that
instructs the CMF V.P. ofFinance to rebalance the endowment fund portfolios on a
quarterly basis.
To keep administrative time to a minimwn CMF maintains one checking account to pay
all endowment fund expenses. The negative cash balances are due to endowment fund
expenditures from the CMF checking account, which are periodically reimbursed by
transferring cash from the endowment funds back to the CMF general checking account.
Investment Performance Comparison Report

One of the benchmarks the Investment Committee has been tracking over the last couple
of years is the Cambridge Associates, Inc. pool of colleges, universities, and foundations.
Since the release of this quarterly report typically lags the end of our quarter by two to
three months, the latest comparative numbers available are March 31, 2002.
In light of the continued decline of the U.S. Stock market the committee continues to
explore other investment alternatives. At the November 2002 Investment Committee
meeting Bank One and Comerica will be presenting alternatives to the current asset
allocation structure for the committee's review.

30th Annual Conference
Community &amp; The Human Spirit: Connecting &amp; Renewing
September 29-0ctober 1, 2002, Mackinac Island

We look forward to having you with us for the 30th Annual Conference, Community &amp;
The Human Spirit: Connecting &amp; Renewing, starting Sunday at 5:00p.m. with the
Opening Reception at the Grand Hotel. We are extremely grateful to the members of the
Program Committee and Host Committee, Mary Beth Daniels of the Grand Hotel, and the
CMF staff. Everyone has put in 110% to make this conference a success! We are
pleased to offer this status report on the Conference.
Conference Design
The 2002 Annual Conference supports the objectives of the Strategic Plan through:
•

Program.
The Program Committee decided to replace the traditional "foundation type" tracks
with tracks on:
o the 5 core educational competencies of grantmaking, governance,
administration, finance, and communication;
o the 5 issues to which the Public Policy Committee has committed itself-Safety Net/Economic self-sufficiency; T ANF Reauthorization; Early
Childhood/K-12; Health Care Access; and Land Use/Urban Sprawl.
This new approach also supports networking across foundation types.

•

CMF Membership Promotion. New strategies are being introduced at this year's
conference to support our member retention and recruitment goals. They include:
o An expanded Membership Booth i.n Resource Central;
o Increased marketing of individual new products, programs, and services;
o The first New Member/New Participant reception

•

Encouraging and assisting staff, Trustees, and members of the Membership
and Program Committee to welcome new members and new participants who
will be identified by special name tags and badges. This supports our value
related to relationships. We will have a list ofboth new and potential
members to share with you at the Board Meeting.

Adding the "Dr. Is In" session to provide one-on-one assistance.
Conducting pre-conference customer service training for staff and developing a
system for collecting anecdotal comments from members during the conference.
These comments, along with conference evaluations, will assist us in being
responsive to member needs.

Registration
Over the past seven months, CMF has implemented a multi-strategy promotional plan to
achieve our goal of 475 full and 50 partial registrants. These estimates assumed a static
economy. The continued economic downturn, however, has affected registrations, most
noticeably with community foundation registrations down 30%. As of September 17,
2002, we have 418 full and 38 partial registrations with more arriving daily. We will
have a verbal update for you at the Board Meeting.
Sponsors
We are grateful to 27 foundations and corporations for providing more than $110,000 in
direct contributions to support sessions, speakers, refreshment breaks, receptions, and
malt::riab. Our lhank~ also go lo lht:: many CMF members who art: generously
underwriting the travel expenses of speakers for the sessions they have contributed to
developing. Each sponsor is acknowledged in the Conference Program and in various
signs displayed throughout the Grand Hotel.
Exhibitors
Our thanks as well to the ten exhibitors for their support! They are also acknowledged on
the inside cover of the Conference Program. There is the potential to expand this service
to members when we return to the Amway Grand next year.
2003 Conference
The CMF staff will be meeting next month to refine strategies for generating more
revenue from the 31st Annual Conference in Grand Rapids. We believe that with new
approaches to sponsorships, exhibitors, and advertising in the conference program, the
conference can become a more significant source of income.
Finally, there is still time to sign up for the two simulation sessions on Aging and
Poverty as well as the Leadership session for experienced grantmakers on Monday
afternoon. Please ask at the Conference Registration Desk!
