CMF Board ofTrustees

From: Richard K. Rappleye
RE:

CMF &amp; Supporting Organizations' December 31, 1999, Financial Statements

Resolved: That the Council of Michigan Foundations' Board of Trustees accept
the December 31, 1999, Financial Report as recommended by the CMF Audit &amp;
Finance Committee.
On January 28, 2000, the CMF Audit &amp; Finance Committee met to review and approve the
December 31, 1999, internal financial statements for CMF, MCFV and the Michigan AIDS
Fund.

Consolidated Balance Sheet
Cash &amp; Cash Equivalents
The relative large cash balance for MCFV represents funds that are set aside to meet future
programming needs and grant payments to community foundations.
CMF Endowment Funds
In December, the Community Foundation Endowment Fund (Formerly known as the Board
Designated Fund) was transferred from the Michigan Community Foundations' Ventures
project to CMF. As ofDecember 31, 1999, this endowment fund had reached a balance of
$5,771,984.

CMF Core Operations
1999-00 Projected vs. 1999-00 Budget
Note 1: Member Contributions
Approximately $8,000 of the variance from budget is due to new member (37) contributions
exceeding the amount budgeted (25). In addition, the overall asset base of our membership,
and thus our member contributions, have increased thanks to the continued strong
performance of the U.S. Stock Market.

I:\DLINDBER\BOARDME1\CMF\2000\meet020900.doc

�Note 2: Conference Income &amp; Expenses
Revenue and expenses for the Annual Conference are over-budget due to the number of
attendees at this year's conference and special events associated with Dorothy Johnson's
graduation event.
Revenue
Expenses
Net Expense

$463,726
512,761
$49,035

$21, 127 of the net expenses for the conference that fell under the improving and increasing
philanthropy area were charged to the Russell G. Mawby Fund. This left a remaining deficit
of$27,908 in the Core Operations that will be funded from a prior year fund balance of
$442,000.

Note 3: Publications Income
The projected variance is due to the sales of a CD version ofthe 1th Edition o(the CMF
Michigan Foundation Directory that was not anticipated when the 1999-00 budget was put
together.

Note 4: Support- CMF President/CEO Search
Due to the special fund raising activities taking place at CMF this year, the Executive
Committee agreed to forego a special request to the membership for the executive search
firm expenses. Through December 31, 1999, expenses for the search totaled $79,800.

Note 5: Books &amp; Subscriptions
The projected variance from budget is primarily due to the purchase ofCOF's Grantmaking
Basics publication, that will be sold to members over the next year.

Note 6: Professional &amp; Contracted
Year-to-date expenses are broken down as follows.
Public Affairs Associates
Search Expenses
Audit Fees
Legal

$9,000
$79,800
$8,800
$800

I:\DLINDBER\BOARDME1\CMF\2000\meet020900.doc

�Note 7: Projected Year- End Deficit
The year-end deficit is broken down as follows:
President/CEO Search Expenses
Carpeting and Furniture
Annual Conference Deficit

$85,000
$25,000
$28,000

These items will be funded from a prior year fund balance of $442,000.

CMF Endowment Funds
Note A: Other Grants
Thru December 31, 1999, a total of$1,463,785 has been raised for the two endowment funds
set up to honor the graduation ofDottie Johnson. Ofthis total, $504,325 has been ear
marked for the library that will be set up at Grand Valley State University, leaving $962,060

Memo To:

Executive Committee
Margaret A. (Ranny) Riecker

Jack Hopkins

Julie E. Cummings
Richard K. Rappleye
Mariam C. Noland

From:

RobertS. Collier, President Elect

Re:

2000- 2001 Proposed Plan ofWork

Attached is the proposed Plan ofWork for the fiscal year April2, 2000 to March 31, 2001
prepared by staff in consultation with Members, other RAGs, advisors, and members of CMF's
nonprofit philanthropic network. We are excited about the potential for continued growth of
philanthropy in Michigan and the opportunities to be of service to our members and the greater
philanthropic community. I am honored to be given the privilege of serving as the next President
ofCMF and look forward to working with the Board, staff and hundreds ofvolunteers in making
this Plan operational.
The purpose of this memo is to seek your counsel on recommended adjustments to the Goals and
Objectives, and to the six personal goals I have set.

I.

Adjustments to Mission, Goals and Objectives

The Plan of Work begins by restating CMF's Mission, Goals and Objectives. The attached
document reflects the following two changes recommended by staff

Goals &amp; Objectives
1. Objective five under Goal - Educate, "to network community foundations electronically" has
been deleted and the activities combined with those under objective four, "to build the
organizational viability and leadership potential of community foundations."
2. "Offoundations and corporations" has been deleted from the Goal- Increase and the words
"philanthropic and available" added. The revised Goal now reads, "To increase the philanthropic
and grantmaking resources available in Michigan." In addition, the first objective under this Goal
will now be "to increase the number of foundations and corporate giving programs."
II.

Personal Goals

I offer the following six personal goals in four priority areas that will receive my highest
attention.

�1.

CMF staffing and strategic plan

My goal is to have a new Vice President selected and in place by no later than the June 2 Board
Meeting. I have already started interviews and begun circulation of a job description. In
addition, I have had preliminary discussions with several consultants about the need to begin
CMF's next "five year" Strategic Plan. I feel that it is important to have the new number two
person in place and other leadership transition issues out of the way before the Strategic Planning
Process begins. Consultant Alice Buhl, who helped with the last Strategic Plan, has
recommended that we not rush into a Strategic Planning process. Therefore, my goal is to have a
Strategic Planning process ready for Board approval at the October 2 Board Meeting in Traverse
City.
2.

State Legislative Network

My goal is to announce creation of a State Legislative Network at the 28th Annual Conference.
While this is ambitious, I feel that it is vital that a CMF Member be matched with each member of
the State Legislature. I recommend that the plan for creation of this Network be one of the
agenda items for our February 9 Board Meeting and that our political consultant David Haynes
ofPublic Affairs Associates be involved in this plan.
During the last six months I have been involved with both House and Senate Committees on two
community foundations bills. The impact of term limits in the House is startling. There are many
new Representatives that need the basic education on philanthropy, i.e. what is a foundation, etc.
By calling upon our members to become more engaged in educating their State legislators about
the role philanthropy plays in their Districts, we are replicating what is being done nationally by
COF.
3.

Membership Retention and Development

I believe that membership retention is going to be vital in this year of transition. Staff will work
on new tools to state the benefits of membership as well as undertake a concerted effort to
contact those members that have not participated in one of CMF's educational events. My goal is
to insure that our goal of95% membership retention is met in the new fiscal year.
In addition, we are continually being asked to provide services to advisors to the wealthy. I
propose that the membership committee work with staff in reviewing our current membership
criteria to determine if a type of membership category can be developed for advisors to the
wealthy. My goal would be to have a plan presented by the October 2 Board Meeting.
4.

Standards, Best Principles and Practices for Community Foundations

CMF and its Community Foundations Committee continue to be leaders in the development of
services for community foundations. Great progress has been made in the past year in the
development of standards supported by best principles and practices. The challenge in 2000 is
going to be working with community foundations statewide on the adoption of these standards.
Therefore my goal is to help staff and the Committee succeed with efforts to implement these
standards, and best principles and practices in 2000.

Memo To:

Council of Michigan Foundations' Board of Trustees

From:

Herbert (Ted) D. Doan

RE:

December 31, 1999 Investment Report

Resolved: That the CMF Board of Trustees accept the December 31,1999
Investment Report.
The enclosed Investment Performance Report summarizes the asset allocation and
twelve-month internal rate of return for the Council ofMichigan Foundations and
supporting organizations' permanent funds, for the period ended December 31, 1999.
The bench mark rates of return are based on the targeted asset allocation using the
previous 12 and 24 months returns for the various indices listed at the end of this report.
On the attached you will find the investment performance and asset allocation reports for
the period ending December 31, 1999. An additional schedule has been provided as of
September 30, 1999, that compares the one year actual returns to a quarterly report
published by Cambridge and Associates, Inc. entitled Comparative Asset Allocation and
Total Return. This report summarizes the returns for endowments of colleges and
universities, independent schools, museums and libraries, foundations, medical
endowments, and other institutions.
On the December 31, 1999, Investment Performance Report you will note that the
William Allen Fund two year return exceeded the other endowment funds by
approximately 1%. This variance can be explained by the fact that during the first six
months of 1998 the Allen Fund was reallocating the equities portion of the portfolio from
actively managed to index funds.

Memo to:

Board of Trustees

From:

Olivia P. Maynard, Chair
Government Relations Comittee

Re:

Government Relations Committee Report

Capitol Hill Visit February 1/2. 2000
We ~re excited to report that 23 members, and staff are visiting with each of the members
ofMichigan's congressional delegation on February 2. The visit is starting with the
customary dinner and briefing at the 1789 Restaurant in Georgetown - this year hosted by
CMF TrusteeS. Martin Taylor, Senior Vice President Detroit Edison. Special guests for
the evening include, Senator Carl Levin and his wife Barbara, Congressman David Camp,
Congressman Pete Hoekstra and John Edie, Senior Vice President with the Council on
Foundations. The major issues this year are the IRA Charitable Rollover, and the Non
Itemizer Charitable Deduction Bill, which President Clinton mentioned in the State of the
Union address.
Legislation
House Bill 4959, sponsored by Representative Terry Geiger, will allow school systems to
transfer gifts to community foundations for use as the donor intended. Passed by the
House and approved by the Senate Education Committee, the Bill did not pass in the
Senate before Christmas because the charter school was attached to it in final negotiations.
It will be taken up again by the Senate this winter.
Senate Bill 796, sponsored by Senator Schuette, has been approved by the Senate. This
Bill to strengthen the definition of a community foundation will be considered by the
House Taxation Committee, chaired by Representative Cassis in February.
Private Foundation Payout Study
Cambridge Associates has submitted the draft report, "Sustainable Payout for
Foundations." This report is being reviewed by.the Technical Subcommittee, chaired by
Robert Swaney, Vice President, C.S. Mott Foundation. Other members of the committee
include two technical advisors and financial officers from the Ford, Kellogg, Kresge, Mott
Foundations and CMF staff. The Technical Subcommittee is meeting by conference call
Monday, February 7, 2000 in hopes of having a final report for the Payout Study
Committee, chaired by Ranny Riecker, and the CMF Board in March.

�Government Relation Committee, January 31, 2000
Page 2

The draft table of contents for the report includes the following sections:
• Introduction
• Past Returns Using Passive Allocations
• Asset Allocation of the Response Pool (Michigan Foundations in existence in 1973,
with assets in Excess of $5 million)
• Return Experience of the Response Pool
• Payout Rates of the Response Pool
• Future Projections
• Conclusions
• Appendices
We had hoped to make this a 30 year study, but had to change the starting year to 1973
because that was the first year that the IRS required that the market value of noncharitable assets be reported. The period covered for the 48 private foundations in the
study is 1973-1988.
Marilyn Stein-LeFeber, Vice President, Communications, Charles Stewart Mott
Foundation, has joined the Technical Subcommittee to help with a Communications Plan
and final editing. We have asked Dottie Johnson to continue to provide assistance to the
Committee and project.

Embracing Our
Future

nonprofit association of foundations and corporations
which make grants for -charitable purposes.

As a membership organization, our mission is to increase,
to enhance, and to improve philanthropy in Michigan.

�Embracing Our
Future
Dear members and friends,
Trustees, staff and members are now fully involved in a Strategic Planning
Process as we "Embrace our Future." We are grateful for the more than
200 members who responded to the membership survey and the 40 plus
members who participated in conference calls and focus groups. You have
reaffirmed that our Mission "to increase, to enhance and to improve philanthropy in Michigan" is right on target!
You have also provided us with
thoughtful ideas on how we can fulfill
this mission together through
activities that support our six
purposes. There are now trusteeand member-led task forces tackling
the issues of communications and
marketing, membership services,
education and networking, as well as
technology. We look forward to
sharing the initial results of the work
from these task forces and this
Strategic Planning Process at the
Annual Members Meeting as part of our
29th Annual Conference in Detroit.
During this year there were several
key changes on the CMF Board of
Ranny Riecker p asses the gavel to
Trustees. First, Dave Campbell was
CMFfSJ new chair, C. David Campbell.
enthusiastically appointed the new
Chair. We are grateful to Ranny
Riecker, who will stay on the Board, for her two years as Chair during a time of
transition in leadership for our organization. John Frey, Jim Greene and
Amanda Van Dusen were elected by the membership as new Trustees. But our
Vice Chair for Corporate Services, Lynn Feldhouse, stepped down after many
years of dedicated service to the DaimlerChrysler Corporation Fund and CMF.
As philanthropy continues to grow in Michigan, CMF does as well. We were
pleased to welcome 32 new members, representing all aspects of organized grantmaking. The Board joins us in thanking the staff and many
volunteers who have helped to make the accomplishments, noted on the
following pages, happen . Please feel free to call us with your ideas on how
we can best assist you with your grantmaking and together increase,
enhance and improve philanthropy in Michigan.

Foundation and the C.S. Mott Foundation,
continues to be the primary project of MCFV.
Activities this year have focused on :
Mission:

•

Minimum standards-47 community
foundation boards have validated that their
community foundations meet standards on
governance, finance and administration, donor
relations, grantmaking, communications and
convening.

•

A common identity system-All Michigan
community foundations now include the word
community in their name. Many are now
presenting their name in a common way while
retaining local logos .

•

A capacity building curriculum-Trustees and
staff participated in a series of four interactive
distance-learning sessions on marketing .

•

A statewide professional advisor marketing
campaign-Ads placed with statewide
professional period icals, and magazines like
Business Week have been complemented by
local activities for advisors.

To support joint programs of community foundations that result in economies of operations and growth in
assets.

For good. For ever...

Products from the first phase of the Venture
Products Fund, such as the PowerPoint
presentation, What is a Community Foundation?,
and the tag line For Good. For Ever., are now
being used by community foundations throughout
the United States. The work of the Venture
Products Fund is being continued in 2001 and
2002 as the Community Foundation Research and
Development Incubator, overseen by a national
advisory committee including Michigan community
foundations.
Working together, community foundations in
Michigan are proving that "it's about leveraging
our collective strength to benefit each community
foundation."

A decade of compassion. A new era of hope.
Since it was formed by a group of grantmakers
in 1989, the Michigan AIDS Fund (MAF) has
distributed more than $6 million from 100 plus
grantmakers in funding and resources to block
the spread of HIV/AIDS in Michigan. It has
supported programs with demonstrable success
such as peer education, outreach to runaways,
homeless and incarcerated youth, and testing
and counseling for women.
MAF exceeded its fundraising goal for the year
and awarded grants totaling $614,297 to 21
organizations located throughout the state.
Four examples of these grants are:

•
•
•

•

$8,400 to Community AIDS Benefit Services
in Kalamazoo
$10,000 to the Keweenaw Bay Indian
Community in Baraga
$16,000 to Alternatives for Girls in Detroit
$17,000 to .Wellness Networks- Grand
Traverse Area in Traverse City

Mission:
To help reduce the spread and alleviate the
suffering caused by HIV/AIDS by serving as an
intermediary support organization between
philanthropy and HIV/AIDS organizations and
those affected by the epidemic in Michigan.

As a result of a Strategic Planning process, the
Board of MAF determined that it was time for the
organization to become fully independent with
its own Executive Director after ten years of
nurturing from the Greystone Group in Grand
Rapids. After a search process, Glen Jack
started on January 1 as Executive Director, and
he opened MAF's new office in Southfield in May.
The Board has appointed Jim Heynen, President
of the Greystone Group, to a vacant seat.
The work of the Michigan AIDS Fund continues
because: there are at least 1,100 new infections
every year in our state; nearly 6,000 residents
have died from AIDS, at least 13,000 neighbors
and friends are living with the disease in Michigan.

�Embracing Our Future through

The William W. Allen Fund
The Fund honors the lifetime work
of William W. Allen, founder of the
Allen Foundation, and a long-time
trustee of CMF . Since its
establishment in 1989 (as CMF's
first endowed fund), it has helped
to further CMF's government
relations work on federal and
state legislative and regulatory
matters.

Established by Ruth and Russell
Mawby in 1996, the Fund assists
CMF in strengthening the involvement of youth in philanthropy. A
primary use of the Fund's income is
for summer college internships for
the alumni of community foundation
youth advisory committees.

The CMF board established this
Fund in 1994 to honor Dr. Mawby's
significant contributions to Michigan
philanthropy. It provides seed
funding for new collabo ratives, such
as the Learning to Give project, and
for developing and publish ing special
publications.

12

Established in 1999 to honor CMF's
President Emeritus, the Fund
supports the nationally recognized
speakers for CMF's annual
conference and for special training
events promoting principles and
best practices.

Established by the Michigan
Community Foundations' Youth
Project Board in 1995 and
transferred to CMF in 1999, the
Fund supports special technical
assistance activities for
community foundations .

�Treasurer's Report
Year Ended March 31, 2001
The Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF), an association of foundations and corporations making
grants for charitable purposes, was incorporated in 1975 to enhance, increase and improve philanthropy
in Michigan (see descriptions of these projects earlier in this report).
The primary purpose of CMF is meeting the ever changing needs of its diverse membership through its
core services, which are primarily funded by three sources of income (see related charts for revenue
sources and major core services expenditures).
In addition to the core services, CMF has been fortunate to be able to take advantage of special project
opportunities to benefit its members. Of particular note
this past year is the Tobacco Settlement grant from the
State of Michigan which has resulted in the distribution
of $12,603,037 to Michigan community foundations to
promote programs for healthy youth and healthy seniors.
Thanks to the tremendous support of its members, CMF
has also been able to react to special opportunities,
through the establishment of five endowment funds
totaling $9,134,557.

Specific membership needs led to the establishment of
two supporting organizations, the Michigan Community
Foundations' Ventures (MCFV) and the Michigan AIDS
Fund (MAF). MAF was formed to meet philanthropy's
response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Michigan . The
Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project was
renamed the Michigan Community Foundations' Ventures in 1999 with the purpose to support the joint
program efforts of community foundations in the State
of Michigan.

Old Mission Peninsula: Preserving the rural
character and scenic views if OMP-A look at Old
Mission's nationally renowned PDR Program: In
1994, Old Mission Peninsula made national
headlines when Peninsula Township residents
voted to increase their property taxes for 15
years in an effort to preserve farmland and
scenic views through the purchase of development rights (PDR).

and the State of Michigan have resulted in the
protection of over 4,000 acres of farmland and
other significant natural lands through purchase of developments, donation of development rights, special use permits, and public
ownership.

is best known for its rustic wooden bridges
crossing the Rapid River and its adjacent tributaries.
Seven Bridges rolling hills offer beautiful views
of the Rapid River Valley, and its open meadows provide exceptional opportunities for

photographer's paradise; rustic looking bridges,
the braided waters of the Rapid River, and
twisted cedar trunks make it an excellent spot
to capture nature's beauty on film. The Rapid
River is also a state- recognized trout stream.

Historic Homes Tour &amp; Opera House:
Join us for a highlights tour ofhistoric
Traverse City. First stop is the Boardman
Neighborhood District,,where the Hull
Family homes still exhibit turn-of-the-century
grace and elegance. Mr. Hull, president of the
well-known Oval Wood Dish Factory, was a
leading Traverse City industrialist of the 1890s.

Antrim Creek Natural Area: The real beauty of Antrim Creek Natural Area (ACNA) lies
in its diversity. Its wide sandy beaches are quintessential Northern Michigan coastline; its fragile
dunes support the Pitcher's thistle and the Lake
Huron tansy, the former on the federal threatened species list and the latter on the Michigan
threatened species list; its mature forests include
majestic white pines, spared from the logger's
axe; its wetlands abound with wildlife; and its
namesake creek is a spawning area for Great
Lakes fish species such as steelhead.

From there we will travel through the Traverse
City Historic District on downtown Front
Street, stopping at the 190-year old City
Opera House. Listed on both National and
State Historic Site Registers, this "Grand Old
Lady" is poised to enter a complete restoration. One of the 128 Opera Houses built in
Michigan in the late 1800s; it remains one of
three statewide with significant historical
integrity.

ACNA is teeming with wildlife today, but this
stunning natural area once teemed with
human life, too. It was formerly the site of
Antrim City, a wharf and whistle stop during
the Northern-logging era. For decades,
Antrim City was a principle market town on
the coast between Charlevoix and Elk Rapids.
The cemetery, located on a bluff overlooking
the old town site, is the last visible relic of this
bustling settlement.

We will then proceed to the Central Neighborhood District, established by Perry
Hannah, father ofTraverse City. The Hannah,
Lay &amp; Company was the chief economic force
in Traverse City from 1850- 1900, controlling
not only the lumber business, but also banking
and merchandising. This magnificent Sixth
Street home is the focal point of a brick street,
lined with unique gardens and fabulous
Victorian architecture.

To start, attendees will gather at the former
landowner's home to talk about the unique
cooperation that made this project possible.
The C.S. Mott Foundation, Grand Traverse
Regional Community Foundation, Grand
Traverse Regional Land Conservancy, and the
Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund all
collaborated to protect Antrim Creek Natural
Area. From here, we'll take a short walk down
to the beach, where you can enjoy one of the
longest and most striking stretches of undeveloped shoreline in Northern Michigan.

Final stop for this tour is the Grand Traverse
Commons Area, former home of the
Northern Michigan Asylum. Restoration of
this 400 acres of parkland, including historic
buildings and beautiful arboretum, is taking
place through several community partnerships.

This short hike does include a sandy trail, but
there are no steep climbs. Dress is casual and
comfortable walking shoes are recommended.

Tour will include moderate walking.

Leaders: Karen Smith, Development Chair, City
Opera House Heritage Association; and Carol
Hale, Grand Traverse Heritage Center.

Leaders: Glen Chown, Executive Director, Grand
Traverse Regional Land Conservancy; Lois
DeBacker, Program Officer, C. S. Mott Foundation;
and J eanne Snow, Executive Director, Grand
Traverse Regional Community Foundation.

Dear Colleague:
It is with great pleasure that we invite you to attend the 28th Annual Conference of the Council of
Michigan Foundations on Monday, October 2 through Wednesday, October 4, 2000 at the Grand
Traverse Resort.
The enclosed conference brochure contains the daily agenda-at-glance, conference registration
forms, and hotel information. Please note that all special events and tours described in the second
brochure require pre-registration. Family foundations will also be receiving a special flyer for the
Family Foundation Retreat being held on September 30 and October 1.
This conference will explore the challenges created by today's rapidly changing environment. The
Conference Program and Host Committees have developed a wide variety of sessions, numerous
tours and host events that compliment the theme. Special features of the 2000 Conference are:

• Plenary speakers including Edward Asner, Jean Case, Robin Karr-Morse,
•

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., John Muller, Marian Wright Edelman and John Wunsch,
Sunday evening "Grill Out" and Concert with Kevin Cole,

An Evening on Grand Traverse Bay .

We need your help! A block of rooms has been reserved at the Grand Traverse Resort (Resort)
with overflow accommodations at the Sleep Inn. The Sleep Inn is one mile from the Resort. The
Resort reports a full house. If you have blocked a number of rooms for your staff, trustees and
others and are not using all of them, please call Sandy Katt at CMF before releasing unused rooms.
This will allow us to reassign the rooms to fellow CMF members needing rooms. The conference
brochure details special rates and telephone numbers.
We encourage you to register early and take advantage of the savings. Electronic conference
registration is available through CMF's website at www.cmif.org. We are excited about the

Why do hotel rooms sell out so quickly?

Full description and cost of each tour is listed in the "Special
Events" brochure. Attendees must pre-register for all tours
and golf.

Each year CMF blocks more rooms at our conference hotel
in order to meet demand. Over the past few years, we have
seen an unfortunate pattern among members that is creating
a problem for all of us. Members frequently take more rooms
than they really need. Unfortunately, these same members
don't cancel the unneeded rooms until very close to the
conference dates. This results in empty rooms at the conference hotel, even while other conference attendees are having
to shuttle back and forth between the headquarters hotel and
the overflow properties.
We need your help to alleviate this situation. Please, only
book rooms for registered conference participants.The people
who are inconvenienced when you overbook are your colleagues. Also, many people are not aware that the standard practice in the hotel industry is to charge conference organizers, like
CMF, for rooms booked but not filled. CMF does not think
that's a good use of charitable resources. Please keep this in
mind when making reservations for future conferences.
We are also investigating the costs and benefits of changing our reservation system to require advance registration at

October 26, 1999

The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP) has
reached an important transition point. Funded by the Charles Stewart Mott
Foundation and the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, MCFYP began with two
goals, to build viable community foundations and to involve youth in
philanthropy. There are now 61 community foundations and 34 geographic
funds providing access to citizens in each of our 83 counties.
In addition, 86 permanent youth endowed funds are now overseen by more
than 1,500 high school youth grantmakers annually. Since MCFYP began
more than 5,000 young people have been involved in awarding more than $3
million. It is through your accomplishments and hard work that MCFYP
and youth grantmaking has become a national and international model for
involving the next generation in philanthopy. Congratulations - our goals
have been completed and surpassed our expectations!
This Data book contains examples of community foundation grants and
leadership activities that _are making a difference throughout Michigan. It
also offers examples of proactive grants by the community foundation youth
advisory committees. I offer my sincere appreciation to the MCFYP Board
of Trustees and the members of the State Youth Advisory Board for the
leadership and talent they have contributed.
MCFYP will now become a permanent committee of CMF with the majority
of its members youth under the age of 21. This Committee will oversee the
continued technical assistance activities supporting youth grantmaking.
CMF will continue to offer specialized technical assistance for community
foundations, especially those with assets of under $10 million. In keeping
with our mission to increase philanthropy in Michigan, we are committed to
helping community foundations and their youth grantmakers continue the
momentum started by MCFYP.
We can all be proud of the achievements ofthe Michigan Community
Foundations' Youth Project, and the role it will continue to play in the 21 st
Century!

�COMMUNITY FOUNDATION BEST PRACTICES
Principles &amp; Practices

Individuals and communities involved in creating and operating a community foundation in Michigan have
asked for guidelines and best practices to consider when assessing the operational effectiveness of their
foundation. With this in mind, the Community Foundation Committee of the Council of Michigan
Foundations (CMF) has adopted the following best principles and practices and recommends their adoption
by the boards of trustees of community foundations and an annual review for new and current trustees.
Michigan is unique in having community foundations included in the state tax code as a result of the
individual and business tax credits. The goal of these best principles and practices to promote well-run
community foundations that can best maximize the potential for asset growth and grantrnaking in their
communities.
CMF has a close relationship with the Community Foundations Committee of the Council on Foundations in
Washington that is working on the development of national standards for community foundations. It is
recognized that the principles for best practices summarized below represent a "work in progress" that will
eventually be merged into one national document for community foundations.
While state and/or federal law require many of the best practice principles, the Committee recognizes there
are different approaches to implementation of some principles. As a result, CMF has developed a manual on
Best Practices for each of the six main principle headings. It is also recognized that the six main principles
are integrated- e.g. that communications is key to effective governance,
administration,
asset development
.

Grants That Make a Difference
Summaries of 1998 grants submitted by community foundations for their community impact.

Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation
A grant to assist in the development of a pilot outreach program for high-risk homeless addicts.
Committed to breaking the cycle of addiction, Dawn Farm proposed a transitional facility that
supports addicts and alcoholics that are chronically homeless and unemployed. The grant funds
were used to support research for a pilot program that Ann Arbor never had. The week after the
grant was approved, Dawn Farm was approached with the opportunity to rent a former crack house
and set up the transitional program. It was so successful in its first year of operation, Dawn Farm
has recently purchased an 18-unit apartment complex to provide more transitional housing.
Barry Community Foundation
A matching grant to the Delton Area Senior Housing Committee to purchase equipment and
furniture for the common areas of the Country View Senior Housing Project. The HUD grant did
not allow for the "extras" that are necessary for a housing development ofthis nature. With the
assistance ofthis matching grant, the Housing Committee was able to purchase all of the equipment
necessary for the residents to enjoy a desirable quality of life.
Bay Area Community Foundation
Childcare needs are very high in Bay County. It has been proven that, sometimes, many lower
income parents can not hold down steady jobs _due to childcare needs and demands. Many parents in .
our area have a difficult time finding affordable quality daycare on a minimum wage job. Campfire
Boys &amp; Girls of Midland, Bay and Saginaw Counties are now providing quality affordable childcare
in Bay City thanks to a grant from our Foundation. The average daily charge is $10 per student, but
scholarships are awarded to families who cannot afford the tuition. There is now one less obstacle
preventing some community members from keeping or getting a job.

..

Berrien Community Foundation
During the past two years, an unusually high number of children lost their lives due to home fires in
Berrien County. The Berrien Community Foundation had a big impact in bringing Little Squirt out
of the repair shop and back on the road. This grant also expanded the number of schools Little
Squirt could visit to teach children to "stop, drop, and roll." One of the most unusual teaching tools,
Little Squirt is having a positive impact on the fire safety education of children and their parents.
Branch County Community Foundation
The Foundation helped fund the Dearth Community Center. There was no single location that
nonprofits could rent that would accommodate 800 people. Community organizations and
individuals can now rent the center for volunteer appreciation activities and other community events.

�Grants That Make A Difference
(con 't.)
Dickinson County Area Community Foundation
Through a grant from our Foundation, the Wild Rivers Interpretive Center was pleased to offer 20
free Nature Naturally programs to elementary and middle school classes in our area. Nature
Naturally is a program designed by the Florence Natural Resource and Wild River Interpretive
Center to provide quality supplemental natural resources programs for area students.
Grand Haven Area Community Foundation
The Board of Trustees and the Youth Committee jointly funded start-up costs for a new non-profit
agency called the North Ottawa Ethnic Diversity Alliance. The group had previously existed as an
all-volunteer organization, but now is able to hire a full-time director. The goal at the agency is to
create and continue a community that embodies diversity.
Gratiot County Community Foundation
A grant was given to seven elementary schools to provide items for students who had needs that
were not being met otherwise. Teachers and counselors went shopping to provide their most needy
students with clothing, food, reading books for home and other necessities. Faculty and recipient
students were touched by this grant, as were local businesses that offered a discount on these
purchases.
.
Hillsdale County Community Foundation
'
.
The grant to the Rotary bike path has had the most impact. We were involved in the initial planning, ·
helped them include a youth component, and were a player in the collaboration between the service
club, city government, the public and the Foundation.
.

The Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area
A grant and pledge to Boys &amp; Girls Club supported their capital campaign to build a facility that will
offer a unique place where children of all walks of life can come together under one roof. The center
opened in 1999 and has been highly successful and often filled to capacity.
Jackson Community Foundation
After two years of collaboration and coordination with local nonprofit organizations and funders, the
Jackson Nonprofit Support Center became a reality. Jackson's nonprofits now have access to the
information and support they identified as the most important resources needed to operate efficiently
and effectively. With a grant from the Foundation, an endowed fund was established to assure the
Center's ongoing operations.
Marshall Community Foundation
A grant to the fire department supported purchase of a Thermal Imaging Camera that allows
firefighters to "see through" smoke to find people trapped in a building.

A grant was made to the Niles-Buchanan YMCA to provide new pool entry steps to facilitate use of
the pool by handicapped and senior citizens for aqua therapy classes and for those who use the pool

our county. The goal of this program is to prevent a second pregnancy for these teen moms, while
connecting them to community resources. The Directions Program is intensive, long-term and
individual, using both home visits and the use of a teen parent advocate. 85% of the teens in this
program do not give birth to a second child.

�Grants That Make A Difference
(con 't.)
Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation
Even in so bountiful an area as ours, safe, affordable housing remains elusive for many families.
Two substantial grants this year went to the Char-Em Housing Coalition and Habitat for Humanityorganizations that are doing their best to make certain no one is left out as housing prices and land
costs continue to rise.
Community Foundation of Greater Rochester
Our largest and most visible grants were awarded to two local community projects: Rotary Gateway
Park and Veterans Memorial Pointes. These are both highly visible and received much publicity.
Community Foundation of St. Clair County
The purchase of a telemedicine communication system for the Visiting Nurses Association allows
nurses to monitor patients from a central nursing station, while the patient remains in the comfort of
their home. It allows both the examiner and patient to talk to and actually see one another through
the use of telephone lines. The examiner can also monitor the patient's blood pressure and pulse and
listen to heart and lung sounds.
Sault Area Community Foundation
A grant was used to purchase water testing equipment by the Munuscong River Watershed
Association, for use by area high school environmental classes. This information is placed in
data.base form and then entered into a web si!e at Lake Superior State University. This type of handson work project promotes goodwill, volunteerism and concern for the local environment and its
impact on the surrounding community.
Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan
A grant was made to Wayne State University for the Weather Stations Network Program. The goal
of this project is to establish a network of weather stations in high schools throughout Southeastern
Michigan. These stations are used by teachers trained at the 1998 Summer Sciences Institute to
collect weather data used in classes at their schools, and also by a central server and posted on the
Internet. The intended benefits are to improve high school education in science, encourage teacher
collaboration across district lines and enhance lessons ofteamwork collaboration and electronic
communication for the students.

�Leadership Role of Community.Foundations
Summaries of 1998 leadership activities submitted by Community Foundations.

Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation
The Foundation's Distribution Committee targeted housing and homelessness as a grant focus for
1998. In an effort to leverage the Foundation's funds, a group of 20-25 service providers were
convened to target specific needs and dvelop a project proposal to submit to the Robert Wood
Johnson Foundation's Local Initiatives Funding Partners Program. The proposal was not funded, but
the primary local funding partners, the Foundation and county government have continued to support
the concept and have developed a collaborative grant program that will be implemented in 1999.
Berrien Community Foundation
Business and community leaders, educators and the general public have accepted the Berrien
Community Foundation's invitation to recognize outstanding teachers in Berrien County. All to
often teachers never receive the public recognition for their contribution to the teaching profession,
yet their impact is immeasurable and significant to our quality of life. Through the Golden Acorn
Awards Program, the Foundation has successfully taken a leadership role to raise public awareness
and appreciation for the outstanding teachers in Berrien County.

�A COMMUNITY FOUNDATION YOUTH ADVISORY COMMITTEE
BEST PRACTICES

Adopted by Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project Trustees June 1997
The following Best Practices are recommended as criteria for operating a Youth Advisory
Committee (Y AC). It is helpful to review these annually as part of a self-audit process. The role of
the YAC is to recommend grants from a permanent Youth Fund after assessing local youth needs, be
involved in fund development, and support systems for involving youth in philanthropy.
1. The YAC is adopted by the Board as one of the permanent standing committees of the community

foundation.
2. The YAC meets a minimum of six times a year.
3. YAC membership of at least 7 youth is representative of the youth community.
4. A trained adult advisor works with the YAC.
5. There is an annual orientation process for new YAC members.
6. As the basis for grantmaking, the YAC collects information, at least every three years, about the
assets and needs related to youth in its community.
7. YAC members are provided opportunities to be involved in fund development. Helping to ensure
the continued growth of the youth .fund, emphasis should be placed on donor calls and community
presentations, based on local youth issues and concerns, rather than "fund raising" activities.

'

'

-

8. The YAC completes an annual proactive grantma,Ung process, that involves and builds the
capacity of youth as resources and decision makers in their communities, and results in the
recommendation of grants to the community foundation Board.
9. YAC members should participate in available leadership training opportunities.
10. A process to evaluate its activities, including the effectiveness of grants.
11. YAC members have an opportunity to meet annually with members of the Board of Trustees of the
community foundation. When appropriate, YAC members may attend board meetings,
participate in an annual meeting, or join in special events that provide opportunities for sharing
with the Board.
12. Grantmaking by the YAC is featured in annual reports, newsletters, public presentations, and
other communications tools. This communicates to the wider public the importance of the YAC
and youth involvement as community problem-solvers.
13. The community foundation may support a project funded by the YAC with income from a
different endowment fund. The community foundation board may jointly fund a project with the
YAC.
14. The YAC may review youth-related proposals that are submitted to the community foundation atlarge. As experienced grantmakers, YAC members can provide valuable insights into the value of
projects serving youth.

EXAMPLES OF
PROACTIVE AND CREATIVE GRANTS MADE BY
YOUTH ADVISORY COMMITTEES
Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation
This matching grant initiative provided startup support with community donations in response to the
Youth Council'S Teen Center Challenge. This grant not only helped to make the dream of a teen
center a reality, but also generated broad community support.
Barry Community Foundation
A grant to the Hastings Junior Chamber of Commerce established the Yellow Ribbon Project that
creates awareness of teen suicide and its prevention. This project includes letters to parents of high
school students, distribution of cards to all teens and provides information during study hall periods
on how to use your card if you are in a crisis situation. On the first day of distribution, a young man
turned his card in to a counselor, seeking help.
Battle Creek Community Foundation
The Habitat for Humanity- Student I.M.P.A.C.T. grant had the most impact. The community was
able to see youth address a social issue in a realistic way. The Y AC raised the money, put up walls,
etc. They were in charge of the project.
Bay Area Community Foundation
The Youth Initiative of BACF awarded the Bay City Players a grant for their Y outheatre program.
The Bay City Players theatre provides a needed cultural outlet in the Bay community, and provides
theatrical opportunities for adults as well as chi1dren. The theatre is also an historical icon in the
community since it is the oldest community based theatre in Michigan.
Berrien Community Foundation
Benton Harbor middle school students now have the opportunity to experience the excitement of
sailing on Lake Michigan. Thanks to a grant from the Berrien Community Foundation Y AC,
students are learning the skills of sailing while also learning the dynamics and benefits of teamwork.
The students are also learning about the environment and how important fresh water is to our
survival.
Branch County Community Foundation
The Y AC issued an RFP to organizations addressing ongoing substance abuse prevention for teens.
SADD groups from the 4 local school districts received funds. Youth for Christ/Campus Life cosponsored withY AC a program to bring in a nationally known speaker to address the issues of selfesteem and substance abuse. The school districts, as well as the community, benefitted from the
programs.
Charlevoix County Community Foundation
In 1997, the YAC awarded Planned Parenthood Northern Michigan a grant to develop and pilot a
male responsibility program aimed at adolescent boys. The goal of the program was to reduce teen
pregnancy by impacting adolescent males' self-esteem, communication skills, knowledge of
sexuality and contraception arid decision-making skills. An adult male leader and male peer
educators facilitate the program. Initial feedback from participants showed such positive results that,
in 1998, the program was expanded to seven counties in Northern Michigan.

�Proactive Youth Grants
(con 't.)

Dickinson County Community Foundation
A workshop was provided to give young people an opportunity to explore stagecraft principles and
see them in actual stage production at the Community Performing Arts Center. The workshop
involved many professionals from the community working with the youth for the play Scrooge:
Stingiest Man in Town.

Grand Rapids Community Foundation
The Youth Committee has supported summer programming at the Grand Rapids Metropolitan
YMCA for four years. Through the YAC's most recent grant, the YMCA's summer middle school
program will offer middle school-aged youth the opportunity to get together with peers at the
downtown or West YMCAs five nights a week, instead ofthree nights a week as in previous years.
This gives youth a place to go away from environments of substance abuse and violent behavior.
Gratiot County Community Foundation
A YAC grant supported a cultural trip by 3'd graders from one of the depressed elementary schools in
our county for a cultural trip. The students only asked for funds for bus transportation, and earned
admission to the event themselves. The fact that the request was only for part of the event, with the
students earning the remainder, had a great impact on theY AC members.
Hillsdale County Community Foundation
A grant was made to the student council of Pittsford High School for an "American Humanities
Live" project. This became a community activity involving all the children in the school (K-12).
Different areas of arts were presented on the main street of the town by and for young and old. The
main street became a festival of celebration of the arts.
The Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area
TheY AC supported development of Wetlands Pavilion, a collaborative project with public and
parochial schools, a corporate donor, and building professionals to invest in the future of youth,
youth learning and the environment.
Jackson Community Foundation
AWARE, Inc. of Jackson provides victims of domestic abuse and their children with temporary
shelter and support services during time of family crisis and instability. With a grant from theY AC,
children between the ages of 6 and 12 can participate in group counseling sessions, attend special
activities and summer day camp. The goal of the program is to help youngsters express feelings,
learn conflict resolution and end the cycle of violence.
Marshall Community Foundation
Legacy of Learning: In this project high school students instruct senior citizens on computer use on
a 1 to 1 basis. Senior "students" write a briefhistory of their lives, which is accessible via a web
page, and learn to e-mail.

Proactive Youth Grants
(con 't.)
Michigan Gateway Community Foundation
This grant facilitated a peer tutoring program presented by senior Spanish students for new Spanish~
speaking children in Buchanan schools. In the course of helping the students with their school work,
the high school students were called upon to help parents translate their school and social needs and
concerns as well. The good of the grant expanded from helping individual children do better in
school to helping families blend more effectively into the community, which became more open and
welcoming to cultural diversity.
Midland Foundation
The grant theYAC believes has had the greatest impact is the Circle of Health Partnership's "Teens
Teaching Teens" grant. This is a peer education program, which teaches students about drugs and
alcohol so they can teach their peers. The program has been quite successful. Thirty students
completed the training and have had the opportunity to make a significant impact as they have
trained over 200 more students.
Community Foundation for Muskegon County
One of the most significant YAC grants was to the Michigan Pine and Dunes Girl Scout Council.
On the
Girl Scouts property, there
was an inaccessible low-lying wetland habitat area. With help
I
.
from theYAC grant, the Girl Scouts made this-area accessible to physically disabled youth by
building a new trail system. Their science program serves over 2,000 youth a year and is one of the
few that focus on pond and wetland habitat in the county.
~

Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan
A grant given to Get Excited And Rally (G.E.A.R.) is supporting construction of a skateboard park.
This park provides many local students with a place to go after school, which is away from the
congested downtown area. This grant, along with funds from other local organizations, is making
the permanent park a reality.
Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation
Early, unintended pregnancy is always a concern. Instead of going the easy route and expanding our
conventional sex ed programs, our YAC is encouraging some new approaches in our communities.
For example, we helped fund an innovative project aimed at helping teenage boys change their
attitudes about gender roles, dating, and risky behavior; continued support of MERIT, a far-reaching
program that helps young girls develop life goals, make healthy decision, and steer clear of peer
pressure; and made a grant to "Who's in Charge?", a program that promotes teen responsibility and
abstinence.
Community Foundation of Greater Rochester
Our Y AC participated in a Chamber of Commerce program to fund teacher incentive projects. The
YAC chose 3 proposals from area schools and funded the teachers for innovative classroom projects.

�Proactive Youth Grants
(con 't.)
Community Foundation of St. Clair County
Kids Voting in Michigan The goals were to increase student participation and civic responsibility, to
supply schools with resources and materials, and to introduce students to the importance of voting.
Kids Voting-St. Clair County encompassed more than 55 voter precincts, 65 schools, 300 volunteers
and 6,300 students throughout St. Clair County.
Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan
At Western International High School, a youth grant has helped create a system to assist students in
tracking their school's sports statistics while improving participants' math skills. The program,
called The All Sports Club, teaches youth how to track and interpret statistics. In addition,
participants attend three college sporting events to see how statistics are tracked at the college level.
The students then share their experiences with middle school students, learning relationship skills in
the process.
Sturgis Foundation
TheYAC provided a grant to Youth for Christ to initiate after school programming for middle
school children.
Tecumseh Col!lmunity Fund Foundation
A gtant for "BLOOM Where You Are Planted' ' involves youths with and without handicaps in a
horticulture project coordinated by the MSU Extension and Hidden Lake Gardens.

Committee.
On October 21, 1999, the CMF Audit &amp; Finance Committee met to review and approve the

Fund. During this meeting Mr. Lindberg reported that newly elected Board member, Lloyd J.
Yeo has agreed to serve on the CMF Audit &amp; Finance Committee.
Overall the operating results for CMF, MCFYP and the Michigan AIDS Fund have remained
within budget for the first six months of 1999-2000.

Consolidated Balance Sheet

to meet future challenge grant commitments and community foundations' programming needs.
MCFYP also the received final $3,440,890 from the Kellogg Foundation during the month of
August. Those dollars are currently being invested in accordance with the endowment fund
investment policy adopted by this Board.

Community Foundations Report
Mr. Hopkins introduced Mr. Robert Tobin, Principal of Williams Marketing Services, in
Grand Rapids, who provided a briefing on the Venture Products Fund that is addressing
three needs of community foundations. The three needs are: to know more about targeted
potential donor groups, to have a common product portfolio that could include new donor
products, and to have a common communications tool kit to work both with advisors to
the wealthy and with targeted donor groups. Mr. Hopkins indicated that this four-year
effort is making progress, and that community foundations are excited about the tools that
are being developed.
Mr. Hopkins also commented on the success of the Kellogg Youth Challenge, with
special events planned in Marquette and Battle Creek in September, to mark the end of
this successful challenge to create permanent youth endowed funds throughout Michigan.
He noted the importance of the draft Principles and Practices in the Board book, and

Trustees ofthe Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP) on the future
of the supporting organization. A plan with needed changes in the bylaws ofMCFYP
will be presented at the November Board Meeting.

Patricia B. Johnson, MCFYP Chair
RobertS . Collier &amp; Donnell S. Mersereau

Re:

New Plan for the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project and
CMF's Supporting Organization for Community Foundations

The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP) was started with two
goals: to provide every citizen in the state with access to a community foundation and to
engage youth as grantrnakers. These two goals have been completed. There are now 61
certified community foundations with 34 geographic affiliate funds covering all 83
counties. There are now 86 community foundations youth advisory committees (YACs)
with permanent endowed youth funds established with nearly $46 million in challenge
funds from theW. K. Kellogg Foundation. Therefore, 1999 marks a year of transition for
MCFYP as the Kellogg Youth Challenge is completed.
The staff and CMF Community Foundations Committee have developed the following
plan that was presented and approved by both the MCFYP Board of Trustees and the
CMF Board of Trustees at their meetings on October 14, 1999. The plan addresses the
following three goals:
1. To continue to support youth as grantmakers through theY AC model and engage
YAC members in the design and implementation of technical assistance provided.
CMF has approved a bylaw change to create a permanent standing advisory committee
that shall be known as the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project Committee.
The Committee of up to 15 shall have a majority of its members be YAC members of
alums under the age of 21 . The Committee shall oversee the technical assistance
activities such as the regional trainings, adventure tours, site visits, Mawby intern, and
mcfyp web site. The initial committee members have been drawn from the MCFYP
Board of Trustees and State Youth Advisory Board. The list of these names is included
in the report to the CMF Board from the Supporting Organization.
2. To continue to provide intensive technical assistance to community foundations with
a focus on the community foundations with assets of less than $1 0 million.
MCFYP and CMF have approved transfer of the Board Designated Fund with assets of
$5 million, to CMF to become the permanent endowed Community Foundations Fund.
This Fund has been accumulated over the last eight years, with approval of theW. K.
Kellogg Foundation, from the interest earned on the investment of early payments by
Kellogg ofthe Youth Challenge Funds to MCFYP. This Fund shall be overseen by

�34

CMF's Community Foundations Committee and starting in 2001 , its income shall be used
to continue the special technical assistance now being provided by MCFYP with Kellogg
Foundation support to small community foundations. The list of initial Michigan
Community Foundation's Ventures (MCFV) Board members is included in the report to
the CMF Board from the Supporting Organization.
3. To continue to operate a supporting organization that can support the special
collaborative initiatives of community foundations, such as the Venture Products Fund.
CMF has approved effective January 1, 2000, the renaming ofthe supporting
organization now known as MCFYP to Michigan Community Foundations' Ventures
(MCFV) with a revised purpose to support special collaborative initiatives that will
contribute to continued asset development, proactive grantmaking, and community
leadership by Michigan community foundations that meet and operate in accord with
basic standards. The new Board ofMCFV will be the CMF Community Foundations
Committee expanded to include representatives from the smaller community foundations
as well as all regions of the state. The primary project of MCFV is the venture Products
Fund that is developing community foundation products and communication tools for
local, regional, and state-wide use.
It is important to state that the standards serving as a requirement for participation in

MCFV will not affect the membership of community foundations in CMF. CMF will
continue to be the nurturing organization with a goal to help all of the community
foundations be able to meet the standards. Attached is a copy of the Standards that will
be presented on November 2 to the community foundations . These Standards
compliment the standards being developed at the national level by the Community
Foundations Committee of the Council on Foundations.
Finally, we have included for your review, the final list of the 87 community foundations
and affiliates that received Youth Challenge grants over the past eight years, along with
1998 examples submitted by community foundations, of grants that make a difference,
leadership activities, and of proactive YAC grants. There are now 86 YACs because the
Hudsonville YAC is being folded into the Grand Rapids Foundation YAC.

DRAFT- 10/8/99
Standards for Michigan Community Foundations

The community foundations ofMichigan 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 non-profit and philanthropic organizations have pointed out the need for standards in the
nonprofit sector. In addition, a vital partner in the continued growth of the community foundation
field, are those professions that serve as advisors to the wealthy - lawyers, accountants, financial
planners, etc. - 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 ofMichigan have developed standards for our field in
Michigan. We believe that the following 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 standards are proposed in addition to the requirements of state and federal law
and are supported by the Community Foundations Best Principles and Practices adopted by the
Community Foundations Committee of the Council ofMichigan Foundations. In addition they
have been designed to complement the development of national standards by the Community
Foundations Committee of the Council on Foundations.
Evidence of the implementation of these standards has been adopted as a requirement for
participation in Michigan Community Foundation Ventures (MCFV), the supporting organization
of the Council ofMichigan Foundations. The purpose ofMCFV is to support the joint activities
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 ofMichigan Foundations in doing so.

EXAMPLES OF
PROACTIVE AND CREATIVE GRANTS MADE BY
YOUTH ADVISORY COMMITTEES
Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation
This matching grant initiative provided startup support with community donations in
response to the Youth Council'S Teen Center Challenge. This grant not only helped to
make the dream of a teen center a reality, but also generated broad community support.
Barry Community Foundation
A grant to the Hastings Junior Chamber of Commerce established the Yell ow Ribbon
Project that creates awareness of teen suicide and its prevention. This project includes
letters to parents of high school students, distribution of cards to all teens and provides
information during study hall periods on how to use your card if you are in a crisis
situation. On the first day of distribution, a young man turned his card in to a counselor,
seeking help.
Battle Creek Community Foundation
The Habitat for Humanity- Student I.M.P.A.C.T. grant had the most impact. The
community was able to see youth address a social issue in a realistic way. The YAC
raised the money, put up walls, etc. They were in charge of the project.
Bay Area Community Foundation
The Youth Initiative of BACF awarded the Bay City Players a grant for their Youtheatre
program. The Bay City Players theatre provides a needed cultural outlet in the Bay
community, and provides theatrical opportunities for adults as well as children. The
theatre is also an historical icon in the community since it is the oldest community based
theatre in Michigan.
Berrien Community Foundation
Benton Harbor middle school students now have the opportunity to experience the
excitement of sailing on Lake Michigan. Thanks to a grant from the Berrien Community
Foundation YAC, students are learning the skills of sailing while also learning the
dynamics and benefits of teamwork. The students are also learning about the
environment and how important fresh water is to our survival.
Branch County Community Foundation
The YAC issued an RFP to organizations addressing ongoing substance abuse prevention
for teens. SADD groups from the 4 local school districts received funds. Youth for
Christ/Campus Life co-sponsored with YAC a program to bring in a nationally known
speaker to address the issues of self-esteem and substance abuse. The school districts, as
well as the community, benefitted from the programs.
Charlevoix County Community Foundation
In 1997, the YAC awarded Planned Parenthood Northern Michigan a grant to develop
and pilot a male responsibility program aimed at adolescent boys. The goal of the
program was to reduce teen pregnancy by impacting adolescent males' self-esteem,
communication skills, knowledge of sexuality and contraception and decision-making
skills. An adult male leader and male peer educators facilitate the program. Initial

�41
feedback from participants showed such positive results that, in 1998, the program was
expanded to seven counties in Northern Michigan.
Proactive Youth Grants
(con 't.)

Dickinson County Community Foundation
A workshop was provided to give young people an opportunity to explore stagecraft
principles and see them in actual stage production at the Community Performing Arts
Center. The workshop involved many professionals from the community working with
the youth for the play Scrooge: Stingiest Man in Town.

Grand Rapids Community Foundation
The Youth Committee has supported summer programming at the Grand Rapids
Metropolitan YMCA for four years. Through the YAC's most recent grant, the YMCA's
summer middle school program will offer middle school-aged youth the opportunity to
get together with peers at the downtown or West YMCAs five nights a week, instead of
three nights a week as in previous years.
This gives youth a place to go away from environments of substance abuse and violent
behavior.
Gratiot County Community Foundation
A YAC grant supported a cultural trip by 3'd graders from one of the depressed
elementary schools in our county for a cultural trip. The students only asked for funds for
bus transportation, and earned admission to the event themselves. The fact that the
request was only for part of the event, with the students earning the remainder, had a
great impact on the YAC members.
Hillsdale County Community Foundation
A grant was made to the student council of Pittsford High School for an "American
Humanities Live" project. This became a community activity involving all the children
in the school (K.-12). Different areas of arts were presented on the main street of the town
by and for young and old. The main street became a festival of celebration of the arts.
The Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area
The YAC supported development of Wetlands Pavilion, a collaborative project with
public and parochial schools, a corporate donor, and building professionals to invest in
the future of youth, youth learning and the environment.
Jackson Community Foundation
AWARE, Inc. of Jackson provides victims of domestic abuse and their children with
temporary shelter and support services during time of family crisis and instability. With a
grant from the YAC, children between the ages of 6 and 12 can participate in group
counseling sessions, attend special activities and summer day camp. The goal of the
program is to help youngsters express feelings, learn conflict resolution and end the cycle
of violence.

Proactive Youth Grants
(con 't.)

Marshall Community Foundation
Legacy of Learning: In this project high school students instruct senior citizens on
computer use on a 1 to 1 basis. Senior "students" write a brief history of their lives,
which is accessible via a web page, and learn to e-mail.
Michigan Gateway Community Foundation
This grant facilitated a peer tutoring program presented by senior Spanish students for
new Spanish-speaking children in Buchanan schools. In the course of helping the
students with their school work, the high school students were called upon to help parents
translate their school and social needs and concerns as well. The good of the grant
expanded from helping individual children do better in school to helping families blend
more effectively into the community, which became more open and welcoming to
cultural diversity.
Midland Foundation
The grant the YAC believes has had the greatest impact is the Circle of Health
Partnership's "Teens Teaching Teens" grant. This is a peer education program, which
teaches students about drugs and alcohol so they can teach their peers. The program has
been quite successful. Thirty students completed the training and have had the
opportunity to make a significant impact as they have trained over 200 more students.
Community Foundation for Muskegon County
One ofthe most significant YAC grants was to the Michigan Pine and Dunes Girl Scout
Council. On the Girl Scouts property, there was an inaccessible low-lying wetland
habitat area. With help from the YAC grant, the Girl Scouts made this area accessible to
physically disabled youth by building a new trail system. Their science program serves
over 2,000 youth a year and is one of the few that focus on pond and wetland habitat in
the county.
Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan
A grant given to Get Excited And Rally (G.E.A.~.) is supporting construction of a
skateboard park. This park provides many local students with a place to go after school,
which is away from the congested downtown area. This grant, along with funds from
other local organizations, is making the permanent park a reality.
Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation
Early, unintended pregnancy is always a concern. Instead of going the easy route and
expanding our conventional sex ed programs, our YAC is encouraging some new
approaches in our communities. For example, we helped fund an innovative project

�43

aimed at helping teenage boys change their attitudes about gender roles, dating, and risky
behavior; continued support ofMERlT, a far-reaching program that helps young girls
develop life goals, make healthy decision, and steer clear of peer pressure; and made a
grant to "Who's in Charge?", a program that promotes teen responsibility and abstinence.
Community Foundation of Greater Rochester
Our YAC participated in a Chamber of Commerce program to fund teacher incentive
projects. The YAC chose 3 proposals from area schools and funded the teachers for
innovative classroom projects.

Proactive Youth Grants
(con 't.)
Community Foundation of St. Clair County
Kids Voting in Michigan The goals were to increase student participation and civic
responsibility, to supply schools with resources and materials, and to introduce students
to the importance of voting. Kids Voting-St. Clair County encompassed more than 55
voter precincts, 65 schools, 300 volunteers and 6,300 students throughout St. Clair
County.
Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan
At Western International High School, a youth grant has helped create a system to assist
students in tracking their school's sports statistics while improving participants' math
skills. The program, called The All Sports Club, teaches youth how to track and interpret
statistics. In addition, participants attend three college sporting events to see how
statistics are tracked at the college level. The students then share their experiences with
middle school students, learning relationship skills in the process.
Sturgis Foundation
The YAC provided a grant to Youth for Christ to initiate after school programming for
middle school children.
Tecumseh Community Fund Foundation
A grant for "BLOOM Where You Are Planted" involves youths with and without
handicaps in a horticulture project coordinated by the MSU Extension and Hidden Lake
·
Gardens.

Grants That Make a Difference
Summaries of 1998 grants submitted by community foundations for their community impact

Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation
A grant to assist in the development of a pilot outreach program for high-risk homeless addicts.
Committed to breaking the cycle of addiction, Dawn Farm proposed a transitional facility that
supports addicts and alcoholics that are chronically homeless and unemployed. The grant funds were
used to support research for a pilot program that Ann Arbor never had. The week after the grant was
approved, Dawn Farm was approached with the opportunity to rent a former crack house and set up
the transitional program. It was so successful in its first year of operation, Dawn Farm has recently
purchased an 18-unit apartment complex to provide more transitional housing.
Barry Community Foundation
A matching grant to the Delton Area Senior Housing Committee to purchase equipment and furniture
for the common areas of the Country View Senior Housing Project. The HUD grant did not allow
for the "extras" that are necessary for a housing development of this nature. With the assistance of
this matching grant, the Housing Committee was able to purchase all of the equipment necessary for
the residents to enjoy a desirable quality oflife.
Bay Area Community Foundation
Childcare needs are very high in Bay County. It has been proven that, sometimes, many lower
income parents can not hold down steady jobs due to childcare needs and demands. Many parents in
our area have a difficult time finding affordable quality daycare on a minimum wage job. Campfire
Boys &amp; Girls ofMidland, Bay and Saginaw Counties are now providing quality affordable childcare
in Bay City thanks to a grant from our Foundation. The average daily charge is $10 per student, but
scholarships are awarded to families who cannot afford the tuition. There is now one less obstacle
preventing some community members from keeping or getting a job.
Berrien Community Foundation
During the past two years, an unusually high number of children lost their lives due to home fires in
Berrien County. The Berrien Community Foundation had a big impact in bringing Little Squirt out of
the repair shop and back on the road. This grant also expanded the number of schools Little Squirt
could visit to teach children to 11 stop, drop, and roll. 11 One of the most unusual teaching tools, Little
Squirt is having a positive impact on the fire safety education of children and their parents.
Branch County Community Foundation
The Foundation helped fund the Dearth Community Center. There was no single location that
nonprofits could rent that would accommodate 800 people. Community organizations and individuals
can now rent the center for volunteer appreciation activities and other community events.

Grants That Make A Difference

�45

(con 't.)
Dickinson County Area Community Foundation
Through a grant from our Foundation, the Wild Rivers Interpretive Center was pleased to offer 20
free Nature Naturally programs to elementary and middle school classes in our area. Nature
Naturally is a program designed by the Florence Natural Resource and Wild River Interpretive Center
to provide quality supplemental natural resources programs for area students.
Grand Haven Area Community Foundation
The Board of Trustees and the Youth Committee jointly funded start-up costs for a new non-profit
agency called the North Ottawa Ethnic Diversity Alliance. The group had previously existed as an
all-volunteer organization, but now is able to hire a full-time director. The goal at the agency is to
create and continue a community that embodies diversity.
Gratiot County Community Foundation
A grant was given to seven elementary schools to provide items for students who had needs that were
not being met otherwise. Teachers and counselors went shopping to provide their most needy
students with clothing, food, reading books for home and other necessities. Faculty and recipient
students were touched by this grant, as were local businesses that offered a discount on these
purchases.
Hillsdale County Community Foundation
The grant to the Rotary bike path has had the most impact. We were involved in the initial planning,
helped them include a youth component, and were a player in the collaboration between the service
club, city government, the public and the Foundation.
The Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area
A grant and pledge to Boys &amp; Girls Club supported their capital campaign to build a facility that will
offer a unique place where children of all walks of life can come together under one roof The center
opened in 1999 and has been highly successful and often filled to capacity.
Jackson Community Foundation
After two years of collaboration and coordination with local nonprofit organizations and funders, the
Jackson Nonprofit Support Center became a reality. Jackson's nonprofits now have access to the
information and support they identified as the most important resources needed to operate efficiently
and effectively. With a grant from the Foundation, an endowed fund was established to assure the
Center's ongoing operations.
Marshall Community Foundation
A grant to the fire department supported purchase of a Thermal Imaging Camera that allows
firefighters to "see through" smoke to find people trapped in a building.

Grants That Make A Difference
(con 't.)

�46

Michigan Gateway Community Foundation
A grant was made to the Niles-Buchanan YMCA to provide new pool entry steps to facilitate use of
the pool by handicapped and senior citizens for aqua therapy classes and for those who use the pool
for physical therapy. The grant included funding for the creation and distribution of brochures in all
doctors' offices and pharmacies in the area to advertise the programs available for these target groups.
Participants no longer have difficulty or embarrassment about entering and leaving the pool and
classes are now filled at each session.
Midland Foundation
Two projects have particular significance. Grants were made to Meridian Public Schools in support
of "Project Pride" for renovation of the outdoor athletic facilities of the district that impacts all the
youth and many of the residents of the Sanford area. An additional multi-year project, "Restore the
Dream", supports the restoration of an art deco theatre/auditorium within Midland Public Schools,
and impacts all the students of the district as well as many community groups which will use the
facility.
Community Foundation of Monroe County
A grant wasgiven to display the VietNam Memorial Moving Wall which provided excellent exposure
for the community foundation, with over 20,000 visitors.
Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation
The Community Foundation awarded a grant to purchase a new furnace for the Historical Society
building located in Mt. Pleasant. This helped to strengthen the Society and broaden our field of
g1vmg.
Community Foundation for Muskegon County
A grant to Catholic Social Services supports the Directions program that works with teen mothers
and their babies to ensure the safety, emotional and physical well-being of these at-risk children in our
county. The goal of this program is to prevent a second pregnancy for these teen moms, while
connecting them to community resources. The Directions Program is intensive, long-term and
individual, using both home visits and the use of a teen parent advocate. 85% of the teens in this
program do not give birth to a second child.
Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan
A grant was made to the Alpena Homeless Coalition for the purpose of providing community
education regarding homelessness. The Coalition presents specific events to dramatize homelessness
as well as general community education on the facts of homelessness, and resources available to help
people.

Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation
Even in so bountiful an area as ours, safe, affordable housing remains elusive for many families. Two
substantial grants this year went to the Char-Em Housing Coalition and Habitat for Humanityorganizations that are doing their best to make certain no one is left out as housing prices and land
costs continue to rise.
Community Foundation of Greater Rochester
Our largest and most visible grants were awarded to two local community projects: Rotary Gateway
Park and Veterans Memorial Pointes. These are both highly visible and received much publicity.
Community Foundation of St. Clair County
The purchase of a telemedicine communication system for the Visiting Nurses Association allows
nurses to monitor patients from a central nursing station, while the patient remains in the comfort of
their home. It allows both the examiner and patient to talk to and actually see one another through
the use of telephone lines. The examiner can also monitor the patient's blood pressure and pulse and
listen to heart and lung sounds.
Sault Area Community Foundation
A grant was used to purchase water testing equipment by the Munuscong River Watershed
Association, for use by area high school environmental classes. This information is placed in database
form and then entered into a web site at Lake Superior State University. This type of hands-on work
project promotes goodwill, volunteerism and concern for the local environment and its impact on the
surrounding community.
Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan
A grant was made to Wayne State University for the Weather Stations Network Program. The goal
of this project is to establish a network of weather stations in high schools throughout Southeastern
Michigan. These stations are used by teachers trained at the 1998 Summer Sciences Institute to
collect weather data used in classes at their schools, and also by a central server and posted on the
Internet. The intended benefits are to improve high school education in science, encourage teacher
collaboration across district lines and enhance lessons of teamwork collaboration and electronic
communication for the students.
Sturgis Foundation
A grant of$10,000 to The Sturgis Neighborhood Program supports rehabilitation of housing in our
downtown area in addition to selecting tenants who are committed to learning how to improve their
standard of living. They provide many support services to their tenants.
Tuscola County Community Foundation
A grant was awarded to the A YSO Soccer Club, that is just getting started in Caro, and has over 400
young boys and girls involved.

Leadership Role of Community Foundations
Summaries of 1998 leadership activities submitted by Community Foundations.

Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation
The Foundation's Distribution Committee targeted housing and homelessness as a grant focus for
1998. In an effort to leverage the Foundation's funds, a group of20-25 service providers were
convened to target specific needs and dvelop a project proposal to submit to the Robert Wood
Johnson Foundation's Local Initiatives Funding Partners Program. The proposal was not funded, but
the primary local funding partners, the Foundation and county government have continued to support
the concept and have developed a collaborative grant program that will be implemented in 1999.
Berrien Community Foundation
Business and community leaders, educators and the general public have accepted the Berrien
Community Foundation's invitation to recognize outstanding teachers in Berrien County. All to often
teachers never receive the public recognition for their contribution to the teaching profession, yet
their impact is immeasurable and significant to our quality oflife. Through the Golden Acorn Awards
Program, the Foundation has successfully taken a leadership role to raise public awareness and
appreciation for the outstanding teachers in Berrien County.
Branch County Community Foundation
The Foundation initiated a Nonprofit Coalition that helps local nonprofits address administrative
needs. The NPC created a countywide volunteer form for individuals to fill and return to the
Foundation. The Foundation forwards the application to the organizations indicated by the volunteer,
and contacts are made.

Dickinson County Community Foundation
Supporting our new Volunteer Resource Center has been a key leadership activity.
Four County Community Foundation
Our Foundation participated in focus groups for "Creating a Healthier Macomb" . This mission is to
set an example of collaborative problem-solving and to be the impetus for shared efforts aimed at
improving the quality oflife of the residents ofMacomb County.
Grand Haven Area Co~munty Foundation
We initiated a new needs assessment, focusing on healthy community indicators rather than just
deficits, in partnership with the United Way. This was previously done in 1994.
Gratiot County Community Foundation
Our Board members played a major role in the Gratiot County Strategic Plan that has been active for
several years in continuing to develop goals for the county.

�49

The Community Foundation, in collaboration with other community partners, has helped to establish
a Neighborhood Family Resource Center pilot project. Located in an inner-city school, the Center
provides families with one-stop human service programs.
Keweenaw Community Foundation
The Foundation has served as a convenor in the community on environmental issues. As a member of
the Great Lakes Community Foundation Environmental Collaborative, we have brought together
diverse community groups to educate them on environmental issues such as land use and begun the
development of a multi-county watershed initiative.
Leelanau Township Foundation
Our foundation has had a leadership role in the fund raising for a community arts center. We created
a pass-through fund for collecting construction dollars and also an endowment fund for the center's
long-term operation.
Michigan Gateway Community Foundation
With increased tourism and water-related activities, our Unity Hospital Education Fund invited the
Buchanan Township Fire Department to develop a plan for water safety in conjunction with other
area fire departments. The Fund's primary concerns were with water education to prevent injury and
death. With this focus, the foundation helped to purchase a fire boat.
Midland Foundation
The need for affordable housing in Midland County is significant. The Midland Foundation was
pleased to be a partner in a multi-unit apartment project by raising local dollars, purchasing land, and
gifting it to the Affordable Housing Alliance for this project. Other partners were the United Way of
Midland County (provided staff to incubate the new Alliance), the City of Midland (owners of an
adjoining piece of property also used for the facility), and the local private foundation community
(significant funding) .

Leadership Role of Community Foundation

�50

(con 't.)
Community Foundation for Muskegon County
The Foundation became a partner in a statewide childcare initiative called Joining Forces funded by
the W.K. Kellogg, Skillman and Frey Foundations. This initiative allowed the Foundation to bring
diverse groups together to increase access to quality childcare for low-income families and to
strengthen the overall system of childcare in the community. Last year, Joining Forces of Muskegon
County supported ten welfare moms as they created new licensed childcare businesses in low-income
neighborhoods. The project has also undertaken initiatives intended to affect system wide change in
the local childcare industry.
Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan
The leadership role we are most proud of is being fiscal agent for the Multi-Purpose Activity Center
(M-P AC) organization. Through community donations, M-PAC has raised over $1.4 million for the
Sunrise Side Ice Arena. This widespread support has allowed M-P AC to have a millage request
placed on the November ballot for construction of the Arena.
Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation
The Foundation convening non-profit directors a couple oftimes a year to share information and cochair a new leadership training program to inspire participation in civic leadership roles.
Sault Area Community Foundation
The Foundation has played a leadership role in environmental activities. In the past year, the
Foundation coordinated and hosted a fall luncheon series, with monthly topics covering issues such as
Groundwater Stewardship, St. Mary's River Task Force, Household Hazardous Water, Binational
Public Advisory Council (BPAC) and the Munuscong River Watershed Council. The Foundation has
also awarded environmental grants and has just received a LEARN and SERVE Grant from MCSC
for an environmental student project in coordination with the Munuscong River Watershed
Association.
Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan
The Foundation's "Touch the Future" Program is a six-year initiative to encourage Southeast
Michigan residents to support their favorite charities by giving through their will, trusts and other
charitable planned gifts to build permanent endowments. The program is training hundreds of
nonprofit organizations to do planned-gift fund raising, ensuring a stronger future for these
organizations and the region as a whole.
