By Mark Schwerin / �Friday, Nov. 6, 1992 Battle Creek Enquirer Steinem: Give women capital · Doug Allen/Enquirer GLORIA IN TOWN: Gloria Steinem speaks to Michigan foundations. Steinem's advice: Invest in women Once at the helm of one of the foremost feminist magazines, Gloria Steinem came to Battle Creek on Thursday to tell Michigan foundations to invest in women. "In the foundation world, we need to be more inspired to look at woman is- sues," said Steinem, who spoke to the 20th Annual Council of Michigan Foundation's Conference. To look at how women have progressed, Steinem said that society had to look to the past. "Twenty years ago, the only way wo~en got into high political office was Please see WOMEN, 2A Feminist addresses foundation reps WOMEN, From IA wid0whood," she said. "That was only 20 years ago, so to come this distance and see women elected in their own right is wonderful." Society looks "at men as indi~ viduals, but are aiding women under the umbrella of family," Steinem said. One of the major ways 'women get off welfare, said the founder of Ms. Magazine, is to start their own businesses. "It's hard for women to become capitalists without capitaL:' Foundations must examine their giving to ensure they are not unjustly funding by gender, she said. Steinem also addressed this week's presidential election. "The Republicans have been substantially taken over by the right wing extremists," she said. Bill Clinton's victory makes it seem "that the association of the extremist right is what people were answering" by not voting Republican. And the high-profile issue of Conference speaker Gloria Steinem appeared here as part of the 20th annual Council of Michigan Foundations Conference, which started Wednesday and ends today. family values was touched on as well. , . "My vision of the American family is plural- families," she said. "We get into trouble when we start to define what the ideal family should be." Nuclear families are the product of the last 150 years. Prior to that it was extended families __:_ something Steinem said .society is returning to. "Always talk about families in the plural," she said. "We can't leave two parents isolated with children. And she called on men to become more involved in parenting. "I know men can do it. To say anything less is a libel to men." � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Getz, Chair Thomas A. Bruce Frederick Bryant Robert S . Collier William K. Emery Beth Goebel A. James Heynen Re: Glenn F. Kossick Marvin H. McKinney Mark A. Miller W. Calvin Patterson, III Linda B. Patterson Ira Strumwasser Michigan AIDS Fund - Continuation of Membership Service RESOLVED : That the Board of Trustees authorize the Michigan AIDS Fund to continue as a CMF membership service for up to three years, beginning February , 1992 and concl uding February, 1995. During this period, a plan will be developed and presented to the Board no later than June, 1993, for the longer term implementation of a program which offers a collaborative funding vehicle to respond to the comprehensive needs posed by the AIDS epidemic and addressing the crisis of AIDS in Michigan. Background Statement: The Michigan AIDS Fund received formal approval by the CMF Trustees at their meeting on February 27, 1 990, in response to member requests for the establishment of a collaborative funding project to address this issue . This one-year approval was extended for an additional year on February 26, 1991, thus providing a two-year development period for the Council of Michigan Foundations' Michigan AIDS Fund . During this time, the Fund has matured steadily as a collaborative model, has been accepted as an associate of the National Community AIDS Partnership, and has received support from fourteen CMF members and two national foundations, allowing it to award grants to twelve organizations in an initial funding cycle . Evidence of the success of the Fund can be found in the fact that applications for a second funding cycle have been received which are three times greater in number and dollar requests than those in the initial cycle. The request for three-year reauthorization at this time is responsiv e to major potential donors who wish to consider multi-year funding requests . It will also permit a strategic approach to an appropriate response to the changing needs presented by the AIDS epidemic in Michigan, and it capitalizes on the energies of the very committed volunteer members of the Michigan AIDS Fund Committee (listed above) who are ably assisted by Council and consultant staff. 767I l � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

West Michigan Grantmakers Meet The first meeting of CMF West Michigan Grantmakers took place on September 12, 1991 at the Penn Club in Grand Rapids hosted by the Frey Foundation. Over 33 grantmakers from West Michigan communities gathered to hear "Economic Interdependence of West Michigan Communities : Fact or Fable." After surveying those present, it was felt that another meeting should take place in the spring. l �--------- -- - -- -- -- - - - - - - - , Health Insurance Task Force At the request of several members, the Council was asked to attempt to obtain group health insurance coverage which could be offered to our membership at a competitive premium rate. Providing health benefits has been a problem for members since most have such small staffs that they do not qualify for group rates, and since many coverages exclude previously existing health conditions unless the insurance is granted to a group of more than five employees. Being aware of the problem, CMF formed a task force chaired by William W. Fritz, Vice-President-Finance and Treasurer, W.K. Kellogg Foundation. Activities of the task force included hiring a professional consultant to advise us in the process, studying alternative coverage and costs of various options, and conducting two surveys of members' insurance needs. Our consultant advised us that the only carrier able to provide us with a stable plan at competitive rates would be Blue Cross, Blue Shield of Michigan . In meetings with Mr . Michael Buck, Manager of Special Projects, Blue Cross , Blue Sh ield, the task force found that only an "Enhanced Group Plan" would offer plan and coverage advantages to benefits already carried by members; and that our membership did not provide a large enough base of new clients to qualify for such a plan. Although unable to provide an e nhanced package with CMF identification, the Council is working closely with The Council on Foundations and The Michigan League For Human services, in their efforts to provide such a package for their members. The likelihood of an enhanced group plan becoming available to all Michigan nonprofit organ i z a t ions through the Michigan League for Human Serv ices looks v ery promising for the near future. CMF has been invited to be represented on their program's Advisory Committee. The League will staff the program, which is expected not to require medical underwriti ng, and t o primarily be of benefit to s maller agencies . The Council will keep our memb ers advised on the a v ailabilit y of this opportunity as soon as details are known . 2194A � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Mawby, Chair Robert s. Collier Herbert H. Dow Mary Caroline Frey Gilbert Hudson Robert B. Miller Thomas B. Murphy Ranny Riecker Leonard w. Smith Duane L. Tarnacki Peter M. Wege Lloyd J . Yeo cc: Judith s. Hooker Dorothy A. Johnson Re: Progress Report Background One of the Council of Michigan Foundations' (CMF) fi v e purposes is to increase philanthropy in the state of Michigan, particularly with the creation of private foundations, community foundations and corporate giving programs . In recent years CMF has been instrumental in achieving the following results : - One hundred (100) private foundations were created in the last three years - Community foundat ion assets grew 250% in the last five years - Community Foundation Tax Credit established; renewal efforts underway - Corporate Giving Initiat i ve created to work with and encourage corporations to establish and enhance giving in their community. In no way can CMF claim full credit for these results, but CMF has helped to raise the issues, p rovide technical assistance, and in some cases provide the leadership. The CMF Increasing Philanthropy Committee is charged with continuing to increase charitable resources in Michigan. The climate appears to be right to further this effort : - In 1990, 85,148 Michigan indiv iduals had income in excess of $100,000. (State of Michigan) - In 1986, 72,400 Michigan individuals had gross assets of $500,000 or more and net work less than $10 million . (IRS) - The number of millionaires in the United States nearly doubled between 1982 and 1986. In 1982, 475,000 people held $1 million or more and in 1986, the number was approximately 941,000. (IRS) ---- -- - - -- - - - - - -------------------------------------- ------- l �- An unprecedented concentration of wealth has been accumulated by the super rich (the top 0.5 percent of the U.S. population) particularly during the decade of the eighties. (IRS) - $4 Trillion will change hands from one generation to the next in the next ten years. (Whitman Institute) - Giving to the nonprofit sector, in the next 25 years, is much more likely to come from individuals and families rather than from foundations and corporations. Strategy It has been CMF's position, since the inception of the Increasing Philanthropy Committee, to approach increa sing charitable resources in the state two ways: - Peer to peer donor/trustee contacts in regional or one on one meetings as appropriate - Technical ass istance for donors and advisors provided by CMF. (Includes publications, consultations, networking) Activities The Committee approved the following activities, which have no budget implications beyond what has already been approved by the Board. If the test projects are successfu l , an expanded plan will be presented . 1. Request the Government Relations Committee consider the implications of Michigan tax law, and particularly the inheritance tax laws on the level of charitable contributions in the state and leadership available in local communities. 2. Sponsor a donor event in the spring of 1992 in Grand Rapids to present information about giving. The program will include the following subjects: "Effective Philanthropy -- A Family Member's Perspective" (Presented by recognized donor such as Peggy Dulany, daughter of David Rockefeller) Personal policy-making, traditional and non-traditional techniques, useful models What to look for in recipients; ethical issues; measuring and e v aluation results and options for action. TPI has been funded by the Rockefeller Foundation to present regional programs such as described. If successful, CMF may want to engage TPI to assist in additional peer to peer donor meetings. CMF will retain a consultant to help CMF committees and staff identify the invitation list. All will be done with the utmost sensitivity and care. The message is giving -- whether directly to an organization, through a community foundation fund, or the establishment of a private foundation, etc . l �3. Investigate the value of CMF publishing a newsletter to be mailed to a targeted group of advisors to individuals of wealth . Purposes would include inform advisors about the benefits of philanthropy; vehicles to be used/mechanics; and provide access to further information and resources . Two or three focus groups will be conducted to d etermine the best ways to communicate with advisors. 4. :789M Participate with the Michigan Nonprofit Forum, United Way of Michigan and State Chamber of Commerce in a "Give Five" (Independent Sector) campaign in interested cities/communities to provide giving and vol unteering . "Metro Detroit Gives," has been successfully completed . Other Michigan communities may want to undertake all or part of a similar effort. The statewide organizations would be supportive of the campaigns, providing technical assistance . It is anticipated that the volunteer campaign will begin in 1992, followed by the giving campaign in 1993, if local communities want to proceed. CMF is helping to sponsor a meeting November 22, 1991 to describe the program. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Johnson, Ex-officio Update STATE LEGISLATION - Related Is sues Community Foundation Tax Credit Renewal As previously reported S . B. 299 and S.B . 300 passed the Senate 33-0 . The bills were considered by the House Taxation Committee on October 9, 1991 and were reported out of committee with a vote of 18-1. An important amendment included a "comprehens ive report and recommendations regarding the reform of tax laws that wil l stimulate charitable giving and be equitable to all community charities." The House considered the bills on October 30, 1991, along with seven amendments proposed by three legislators. The amendments wou ld open up the tax credit for c ontribut ions to most all charities, including organizations supporting the homeless, soup kitchens, humane societies , United Wa y, arts organizations, etc. The bills, including the amendments, and an additional amendment which wou ld remove t he $6 million cap, were approved by the House. The bills must now go back to the Senate for concurrence, which is not expected, as the state cannot a ffo rd an unlimited credit . A progress report wi ll be given at the Board meeting. Hopefully a ll the interest created with this legislation wil l be helpful when the Treasury presents their report on options to stimul ate giving. State of Michigan Study The Gove rnment Relations Committee discussed ways to work with the United Way of Mic higan, Michigan Nonprofit Forum and other interested charitable organizations in collecting data and presenting the case for tax incentiv es for contributions to charitable organizations. Discu ssions have been held with UWM and MNF leadership, and there is enthusiasm for working together. One aspect of the study may be the impact of the State of Michigan Inheritance Tax on charitable contributions. �Memo to Board of Trustees November 5, 1991 Page Two Michigan Inheritance Tax The Committee has held discussions with the State Chamber of Commerce and Michigan Bar Association on the impact of the Michigan Inheritance Tax, in keeping with the CMF's Board support for Senate Bill One. There may be reason to document the assumed loss of charitable dollars and c ivic leadership . The Government Relations Committee expects to have a recommendation for the Board at the February 25, 1992 meeting on how CMF might be supportive of alterations in the Inheritance Tax. Other Items 1. The next CMF Legislative Seminar, supported by the William w. Allen Fund, wi ll be held in February, 1993, after the publication of the eighth edition of the Michigan Foundation Directory . 2. The Committee is working to involve private foundations and corporations, as well as community foundati o ns . FEDERAL LEGISLAT ION and Related Issues Common Fund CMF's l egis lative network continues to gain support for H. R. 1733 and S.B. 588 , allowing private and community foundations to form a common fund , a nonprofit, tax exempt membership corporation organized and operated to pool inv estments to gain a greater ret urn . The Council on Foundations is providing national leaders hip for t h is issue , which more than likely will not be considered until 1992, as it does not appear there will be a tax bill until then. Michigan sponsors include Senators Levin and Riegle and Congressmen Camp, Ford , Williams, Henry , Kildee, Upton and Wolpe. The Commit tee is working to secure others with the help of the CMF membership . Other Le gislation CMF is also responding to the following l e gis lation as appropriate : - Corporate tax deductions for contributions to nonprofits that do work abroad - Appreciated proper ty - Repeal the 3% Floor on Itemized Tax Deductions Related issues the Committee is f ollowing inclu ding - Donor directed funds as public charities - Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) proposal 0687H � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

October receipts and plegdes of $338,615 bring this figure to $580,546. The community foundation income will increase by $74,000 due to the October 1, 1991 first - year grant award from the Mott Foundation for the program. Fund-raising for the second years of the Corporate Initiative and the Michigan AIDS Fund is underway and on schedule . Expenses are under budget for the first six months due to the seasonal nature of administrative expenses and the fact that new grants have not yet been awarded in this fiscal year from the Kellogg Youth Project and the Michigan AIDS Fund. Management expects to meet budget in all categories, and foresees no unusual problems or circumstances . �COUNClL N' MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS FINANCIAL SUMMARY DETAIL For The Per-iod 4/1/91 - 9/30/91 Genera l O:Qet·ation s 6 month Actual Community Foundations 6 month Actual Budget INCOME Membership Contributions Additional Con tt:'ibution s In t erest Pub l ications Small ConfeLences SUBTOTAL Annual Confe r ence Ho st Committee Directory Sales Tax Credit TOTAL CURRENT INCOME Transfers TOTAL FUNDS AVAILABLE EXPENSES Salaries and Benefits: Salaries and Benefits FICA- Soc.

Noland Vice Chair, Community Foundations RE: PROGRESS REPORT Charles Stewart Mott Foundation A $350 , 000 grant ( 199 1-95) has been rece i ved from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation for CMF to provide and facilitate Technical Assistance for Michigan community foundations. This grant serves as a companion to the W. K. Kel logg Foundation challenge and provides technical assistance resources to the fiel d. Our heartfelt thanks to the Mott Foundation for this support. Plan of Work Progress The plan of work for the community foundation program cont inues on schedule. Highlights of the discussions of the subcommittees follow. Details of the program activities are available from the staff upon request . Subcommittee Detail Services Subcommittee: Patric ia B. Johnson, Chair Publications The committee has reviewed the technical assistance elements of the community foundation project. New publications approved inc l ude: a Marketing Monograph a Strategic Planning Manual a Manual of Wil l and Gift ing Language a Monograph on Scholarship Programs for As sociations and Member ship Organizations a Series of Art icles and Monographs , to be written over time, which identify the issues and ideas each community foundation should consider when presented with v arious giving options (for example supporting foundations, or pooled income funds). The publications will be available after the first of the year. �-2Training After reviewing the current status of members and the training schedule the committee recommended modifying the project plan of work. Training for 1992-1993 will be recommended to include a Spring School of two days, one day as a retreat day for staff serving in similar functions and one day of training: the youth leadership conference is scheduled for two nights and three days: and the CMF annual conference which will include opportunities for an orientation to the field for new people, a meeting for trustees only, and a meeting opportunity for attorneys who counsel community foundations . The spring orientation session was recommended to be folded into the new Institute for New Staff. Other training could be arranged ad hoc as requested by members. Mentoring and onsite consulting will be used as vehicles to bring along new trustees and new members rather than training . Legal Support Legal support arrangements were approved which includes back-up to local attorneys who request help. Identified legal experts will be asked to write issue papers on specific legal questions of interest to community foundations. Planned Giving Support Planned giving support arrangements were approved on a test basis which includes retaining an e xpe rienced planned giving officer who will provide individualized assistance to members and will offer training both for members and presentations to community groups on behalf of the community foundation member. Tax Credit and Resources: John E. Hopkins, Chair The extension of the tax credit has been a major initiativ e throughout the Summer and the Fall. At this writing the outcome is still undecided. The committee has discussed and staff will be pursuing other sources of funds. After the initial feasibility is researched, ideas from the committee will be folded into the 1992-1993 plan of work. Youth Leadership Conference Committee : Dorothy M. Reynolds, Chair The committee reviewed recommendations for location , price, curriculum, and dates. The committee membership inc ludes one student from each of the youth advisory committees. These recommendations are being researched by staff and the final program detail will be approved by the committee in late November. A June conference is being considered . �-3- Marketing and Public Relations: Diana R. Sieger, Chair The committee approved the content of the Marketing Monograph and set a priority to the audiences to be reached: estate planning attorneys and accountants.

Dow, Chaiiman Nominating Committee Nominating Committee Report Proposed Bylaw Change RESOLVED: The following bylaw change be approved: ARTICLE VI. BOARD OF TRUSTEES Section 3 . Number. The (entire ) Board of Trustees shall consist of NOT FEWER THAN twenty-one ( 21) persons AND NOT MORE THAN TWENTY-SEVEN (2 7 ) PERSONS. THE BOARD SHALL FIX, WITHIN THAT RANGE, THE ABSOLUTE NUMBER OF TRUSTEES FROM TIME TO TIME . (parentheses = delete; CAPS proposed) Rationale: The increase in the number of trustees is proposed for the following reasons: - increase in number of Members/Donors/Trustees/S taff who wish to participate in the organization - increased level of governance and committee activity necessitated by increased level of programming - in 1995-96, CMF's policy to limit Trustee terms to three continuous terms will take e f fect for al l those Trustees grandfathered in (Hooker, Hudson, Lindow, Smith), and the problem will affect other board members as their re - e l ection comes due in 1996-97 and beyond. The Nominating Committee believes CMF should plan for this loss of talent and leadership now. By expanding the board in 1991-92, CMF would be able to interest Michigan foundation and corpor ate donors/trustees and staff in participating, before they would need to become an officer or committee chair. The existing board will also attract the kinds of individuals the Nominating Committee considers important to further CMF's purposes. Positive Considerations Negative Considerations - Expand pool of talent - Al l ow more Members to participate at Board level - Gain further ownership/recognition of CMF's purposes to increase and improve philanthropy - Gain further diversity of interests and geography - Quorum requirement-majority (only a potential problem at winter meeting and has never been a reality) - Adequate time for discussion (overnight meeting helps with time for informal discussion) �NOTE: The CMF bylaws do allow a Trustee to serve three terms, and with one year off, a past Trustee can be re-elected. The CMF Advisory Cabinet also allows CMF to continue to access the expertise and commitment of past CMF Trustees. Number of Trustees 1991-92 RESOLVED that the maximum number of Trustees for 1991-92 be established at 24. Trustee Resignation Elizabeth H. Binda, Vice President & Trustee, Guido A. & Elizabeth H. Binda Foundation, and Trustee, Battle Creek Community Foundation, has resigned from the Board, effective immediately. In her May 26, 1991 letter she indicates "it is with genuine regret that I hereby submit my resignation from the Board of Trustees . To have been nominated and elected is an honor I shall always cher ish . I heartily support the goals, programs and activities of CMF, but find I have over-extended my interests beyond my energy to perform my responsibilities adequately. (In the words of the song, ''Something's gotta give!")" Fortunately, Elizabeth has agreed to join the . Advisory Cabinet and will remain a member of the Community Foundation Youth Advisory Committee. The Nominating Committee will have a suggested nominee to propose to the Board to fil l the unexpired term which ends November, 1992 at the Board meeting . Election of Officers RESOLVED that the following officers be elected to serve a one - year term ending June, 1992: Chairman: Vice Chairman (Private): Vice Chai rman (Community): Vice Chairman (Corporate): Treasurer: President/Sec re tary: HHD/jmc:670M Judith S.

A fter months of extensive preparation, the Detroit Compact Program, the one that offers students a pot filled with opportunity when they graduate from high school, is ready to be implemented at Hutchins. A lot has happened at H utchins Middle School since NBD signed a Compact agreement and became the first corporate sponsor. Another corporate sponsor- Henry Ford Hospital - has stepped up. Volunteers - so far 35, from Henry Ford and NBD - have offered their services. And recen tly a first meeting between the Compact stude nts and volunteers was held. The Compact program is a partnership between business and education formed to increase the number of qualified workers in Detroit. T he program strives to improve students' E performance by applying a set of standards that, if met , will result in summer and post-graduation jobs and college tuition fo r students - something the kids are excited about. "For me," says Brandy Pleasant, a 7th grader at H utchins Middle School, "the Compact means opportunities, a good education and a chance to go to college." And Kevin Taylor, anothe r student at Hutchins, expressed his feelings about the Compact. "Now that we (students) know t hat someone actually cares, we want to put our best foot forward and show that we are appreciative." For putting their best foot forward, Compact kids get rewards along the way. T he Hutchins' incentive program awards and motivates students for academic efforts, attendance, punctuality and behavior.

Johnson President, Council of Michigan Foundations hatever philanthropy might have been in the past, in this decade, giving money to improve the world is a business. Grantmaking in this country today is neither frivolous nor freewheeling, but practical, productive and prudent. It has to be practical and prudent because we are no longer dealing with small change. Last year, Americans gave away $114 billion. By anyone's standards, that's big business. That record-setting $114 billion does not include the number of volunteer hours donated. If you place a dollar figure on it, volunteers contributed over $170 billion worth of ~eir time. That's big-time benevo'nce. Michigan has its own story to tell. You might be surprised to know that there are 1,089 separate foundations in Michigan organized for the purpose of giving money. With combined assets of almost $10 billion, last year, Michigan's foundations made grants of over $523 million to worthy causes. As president of the Council of W • • • • • • "This year, one of CMF's objectives is to stimulate new corporate-giving programs, especially among small- and mid-sized businesses." • • • • • • • Michigan Foundations (CMF), I t rack Michigan's organized giving and am lucky to know first hand how generous the residents are of this state. The CMF was incorporated in 1975 ~ help coordinate, inform and ,crease the number of fo undations a nd corporate grantmaking programs in Michigan. T his year, one of CMF's objectives is to stimulate new corporate-giving programs, especially among small- and mid-sized businesses. Also, we want to help community foundations grow and create more family foundations. While the total impact of the $523 million Michigan foundatio ns gave away is great, the need is even greater. Contrary to popular belief, each of these fou ndations does not have a fortune to give away. In fact, 50 percent of the 1,089 foundations have assets under $200,000. But it is through their combined efforts that they are able to help so many people in Michigan. Basically, there are three types of foundations that belong to the CMF. Of our members. twothirds are private foundations created by individuals or families. Second are corporate foundations set up by businesses. And finally there are community foundations that carry out charitable activities in a certain geographic area with a pool of funds from many donors. For community foundations, there's good tax news. The new Michigan Communi ty Foundation Tax Credit permits a maximum credit of 50 percent donated to community fo undations and is up to $100 for individuals, $200 for couples and $5,000 for businesses. But, despite this good news, Congress is thinking of limiting charitable tax deductions for itemizers. Those who make charitable donations must pay attention to what may happen. Unfortunately, those who would be hurt most by decreased tax deductions are those who need donations the most. T hese people include the poor, the elderly, the disabled, the abused child, the AIDS patient, the crack baby and the battered wife. T hese are the people served by all the donations. People in no other country in the world open their pockets so generously. Japan has only 20 charitable founda- Dorothy Johnson tions, compared to over 1,000 in Michigan alone. In France, a person must get government permission to make a significant contribution. In Belgium, a multinational corporation was not allowed to build a pool for a local community because it was considered the government's responsibility. In this country, we see it differently. Private giving and volunteering does make a difference. The role of CMF is to supply the expertise, networking, information and advice to help individuals, corporations and communities establish foundations. In America today, giving away money is big business, which aptly reflects the American spirit. T his means that those of us who administer charitable foundations must operate under the same business rules of supply and demand. After all, it is the profits from successful businesses that make giving possible in the first place. Running charities by the business world's proven principles of economy means more money available to accomplish our goal. And the more money there is, the more people we can help. �NBD in the Community, April 1991 Local Agency ''LINCs'' Donors to Needy ast month's issue of NBD in the Community talked about the ways concerned people can help local charities through state budget cuts and the recession. Here is another organization needing help through these trying times from individuals and companies. Founded in 1971 by the J unior League of Detroit, Operation LINC helps companies and individuals donate used furniture, equipment and other goods to human services organizations in the metropolitan Detroit area. Last year, LINC distributed 630 loads of goods to 87 agencies. LINC provides a critical "link" by matching donors to recipients. LINC serves charities t hat offer communitywide programs, especially those that provide basic human services to the poor, such as food, shelter, clothing and medical care. According to LINC President, Trisha Fishman, requests from agencies have greatly increased during the past few months because of the economic slowdown and state cuts. "Agencies especially need furnit ure, office equipment such as typewriters and computers, household items, appliances and cribs, not only for their own operation, but to fill the needs of the poor," she says. Fishman explained how LINC's services benefit companies and charities at the same time. "Companies are spared the cost of disposing of goods and should think of LINC when relocating, redecorating or restocking inventory. "LINC makes it easy for companies to provide essential support to the community," she says. Donations can be as small as a typewriter or as large as several floors of furniture. Fishman remembers finding out that a building was being demolished in Detroit. The former tenant had left eight floors of leather furniture, wooden desks and office equipment because it was too expensive to move. Fishman was told that unless LINC removed the goods in a few days, it would become part of the rubble. LINC inventoried, removed and placed the furniture and equipment L with local charities within a few weeks. LINC also helped NBD donate display cases to the Greystone Jazz Museum, to hold the museum's original musical scores, instruments and othe r jazz paraphernalia. Once a company or person calls to make a donation, LINC usually finds an agency within two or three days. LINC arranges for the agency. to pick up the items from the donor. Sometimes, however, a LINC representative will pick up the item and store it until a recipient can be found. Until recently, LINC's storage space was limited. But LINC has just been given use of a warehouse that will allow a larger inventory of goods to be stored for longer periods of time. The ability to store more goods allows LINC to serve many more companies throughout the metropolitan area. With more items to donate, LINC plans to expand the number of Upcoming Community Events Sponsored by NBD APRIL Small Business Development Evening Forum, April23.

At the end of each semester, students can trade in their accumulated gifts for prizes. Some of the prizes NBD and Henry Ford are providing include gym and book bags, t-shirts, sweatshirts, watches, cassettes, stuffed animals, pens and posters. Business sponsorship is integral to the Compact's success, according to NBD's Jacob Keli, manager of Civic Affairs. "When a few businesses come together to sponsor a school, not only do they share the financial responsibility, but they also are able to provide more volunteers and sponsor more special events for the kids," he said. ··And, one company alone can't provide as many summer jobs or sponsor as many school activities as can two companies." For instance, since Henry Ford Hospital came on board to help Hutchins, they have renovated a n area of the school building and set up a health clinic for the students. The clinic staffs a full-time nurse and two administrators to take care of Hutchins' kids. Volunteers are ready to do their jobs too. A t the volunteer orientation held recently at Hutchins, students, teachers and counselors were introduced to the corporate volunteersand excitement was in the air, according to Peter Van Lowe, principal of Hutchins. "The key that has made the Compact so popular is the enthusiasm Ac che volwueer oriemacion held ac Hucchins. srudems and volunceers mec for che f~rsc lime. of the staff. the involvement of the pa ents and the student counciL The council continually brings to other students· attention the rewards available at the end of their school career."

They encounter unexpected obstacles and can lose their way - often ending up tight back where they started. To help small businesses find their way to getting a loan, the NBD Small Business Development Office created ··A G uide to Obtaining a Business Loan." T his guide was written to make the lending process easier by helping the small business owner prepare for the loan interview with the bank lender, according to E d Clark, manager of the Small Business Office. "Many business owners do not understand the finances of their own business," he said. "This guide instructs owners to break down their loan request and put it down on paper.

That's what Roberta Efta, marketing representative for TRW, the producers of your credit report, says. "Credit is an important aspect of all our lives and a lot of people don't realize how their credit history affects them. Whether you want to buy a home, a car or open a small business, at one time or another, credit will be required." According to Efta, for some people the process of obtaining credit can be difficult to understand, but it is important to know how to establish a nd manage a healthy credit record. I Important questions people should ask before they decide to make a credit purchase are: How much credit can I afford? How can I establish credit? What if my credit application is denied? What is my credit report and how can I learn what's on it? The answers to these questions and more will be covered by Efta at NBD's next Small Business D evelopment Evening Forum, scheduled for Tuesday, April 23, at 6:15 p.m.. at NBD's downtown Detroit headquarters. Efta sells TRW's products and services and gives the presentation, "TRW: Your Partner in Credit"" to educate consumers. She holds several semi- nars a month to help people understana and use credit wisely. One topic she'll cover is the credit report, which is used by lenders and commercial and retail charge card merchants to qualify credit applications.

Getz, Chair Michigan AIDS Fund Committee Re : MICHIGAN AIDS FUND - FIRST YEAR PROGRESS REPORT The Michigan AIDS Fund was established by the Council of Michigan Foundations' Board of Trustees in February, 1990 in response to membership requests for a collaborative funding effort to address the crisis of AIDS in Michigan. The purpose of the Fund is to offer financial support to a coordinated, s t ate wide e ffort of program development respondi n g to the comprehens i v e needs posed by the AIDS epidemic . Such an effort requires : - an understanding of the health issues presented by the disease, - a knowledge of the life patterns and needs of the populati ons aff ected b y the dise a s e, - a knowledge of the exi s ting and needed prog rams responding to these issues and populations, and - an awareness of the sta tewide funding sources supporting such programs. Major accomplishments of the project h ave been: 1 . Administrative Establishment , Policy Forma tion and Fundraising - A representative committee of e x perienced grantmakers and physicians was established under the chairmanship of Barbara J. Getz, Program Officer, t he Kresge Foundation. Mark A. Mi l ler, who has a public health, foundation and AIDS programming background , was hired as a Consultant/Part-time Director for the project . The committee immediately set about to secure funding, evaluate needs, set policy, and design and distribute a request for proposals. To date, support has been received fr om 14 funders and the committe e is confident that it will reach its first round goal of $500,000 by June 30, 1991. A significant challenge for this project has been to educate funders who think in terms of supporting only local causes, that the AIDS situation is unique in that successes anywhere in the state will have a positive effect on the local ability to control and treat the disease. A second challenge has been to broaden program office rs' understanding of the comprehensive nature of the AIDS situation in that it cuts across so many traditional programming boundaries, i . e . youth education, substance abuse, discrimination, health and family issues, economics, and case management service delivery . The committee has been successful in involving a broad scope of Michigan funders with the effort and in securing national funding for the project, thereby leveraging local dollars and allowing for a comprehensive approach to programming 2. Awarding of 13 Grants - To date, two funding cycles have been completed with the awarding of thirteen grants totaling $396 , 675. Nineteen additional proposals totaling $554,291 were received , and one proposal requesting $2,500,000 was received but considered out of the reach of the committee's resources. The first cycle of grants was awarded in November, 1990 to well conceived and developed submissions; while the second granting cycle was reserved for those proposals which required further development or direction to be successful, and for l �proposals from unserved areas of the state. Committee members worked with prospective grantees during the second cycle to nurture requests that were within the guidelines of the Fund. The second cycle of grants was awarded in March, 1991. 3 . Sponsorship of a Networking Conference of Grantees - Since grant recipients represent both established and grassroots organizat ions with a variety of experience, and since all program provi ders are relatively new to this service, it was felt that it would be helpful for the participants to have an opportunity to meet and exchange ideas with others involved in similar work. The committee sponsored a single day conference on March 5, 1991 to accomplish this goal and to provide some technical assistance in areas of common interest such as community involvement and fund development. Each funded project was represented by at least one pe r son, and the program was we ll received with requests being made to reconvene the group in another year. 4. Participation with the National Community AIDS Partnership - NCAP makes challenge grants to local funding organizations for innovative AIDS prevention and education, direct service, and technical assistance programs. The Council of Michigan Foundations' Michigan AIDS Fund was accepted as a "local partner" to this group in August, 1990 and received a $25,000 grant to support its organiztional efforts. Significant initial and ongoing funding has been provided NCAP by the Ford Foundation. This partnership affords Michigan the ability to attract substantial national dollars to support local AIDS projects, as well as the opportunity for nationwide networking about AIDS funding and projects. Michigan is unique to this group in that our project is directed by grantmakers rather than service providers and that we are a statewide effort. The Council's decision to plan and grant funds throughout the state, rather than concentrating solely in Detroit, seems particul arly farsighted in light of recent reports from the National Commission on AIDS concerning the growth of the epidemic in rural areas. In February, 1991, the Board of Trustees approved a second year of operations as a membership service for the Michigan AIDS Fund Project . The committee has es tablished a new funding goal of $600,000 and is making plans for the procurement of those dollars while at the same time completing the first year's funding process. At this time, the committee is reassessing the needs, priorities, and existing responses for the next funding cycle. The committee will be convening a client advisory committee and a meeting with statewide decision makers to assist with this process. We anticipate that the next funding cycle will begin in July, 1991. We are honored and deeply gratified to be able to report to you that Dr. June Osburn, Trustee of the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation; Dean of the School of Public Health at the University of Michigan; Chair of the President's National Commission on AIDS; and who serves on the AIDS panels of the National Institute of Mental Health, World Health Organization, and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation; has through a contribution of $15,000 designated her confidence in the Michigan AIDS Fund. Mark Miller, consultant to the project, has found it necessary to resign his position with Ferguson Hospital and the Fund, due to accepting a new position with the State of Michigan Department of Public Health's Mental Health Division. Jim Heynen, of the Greystone Group, will be succeeding Mark as part-time Director of the project. Mark has graciously consented to work closely with the Council during the transitional period. :567 I � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Kellogg Foundation supported by Charles Stewart Mott Foundation managed by Council of Michigan Foundations 1991-1996 Advice to Applicants Council of MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS 6/21/91 Subject to CMF Board of Trustee Changes �Challenge Grant Description Overview The W.K. Kellogg Foundation has granted $35 million to Michigan community foundations through the Council of Michigan Foundations. $33 million will be available to community foundations, $2 million will be used to provide technical assistance over the next five years. The Charles Stewart Mott Foundation has provided a companion grant to support technical assistance to Michigan's community foundations. What is the W.K. Kellogg Foundation? The W.K. Kellogg Foundation, established in 1930 to "help people help themselves," has distributed more than $1 billion in support of programs in agriculture, education and health. Areas of emphasis within those broad fields include youth and higher education; community-based, problemfocused health services; a wholesome food supply; philanthropy and volunteerism; and broadening the leadership capacity of individuals. Projects in opportunities for youth are concentrated mainly in Michigan; support for economic development projects is provided only in Michigan. The Foundation today is among the largest private philanthropic organizations in the world. It supports programs in the United States, Latin America, the Carribean and southern African countries. Limited worldwide involvement is achieved through international networks of activities related to the foundation's programming interests. What is the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation? The Mott Foundation is a private foundation with assets of about $930 million that awards more than 450 grants a year for programs fostering community self-improvement through education, citizen involvement and community leadership and development processes. What is the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF)? CMF is a membership association of foundations and corporations making grants for charitable purposes and located in Michigan. Members are private, corporate and community foundations and bank trust departments which serve foundations. Purposes include: to serve members' needs, to inform the government leaders about philanthropy, to educate the public about philanthropy, to improve philanthropy and to increase the philanthropic pool of giving. How can my community foundation join CMF? An application for membership is available by calling CMF (616) 842-7080 or writing (P.O. Box 599, Grand Haven, Michigan 49417). Your application for membership is reviewed by the Membership Committee of the Board of Trustees. To be a member you must have received your IRS 501 (c)(3) determination letter of public charity status and meet CMF's definition of a community foundation. This definition is available from the CMF office. Emerging community foundations can receive technical assistance help from CMF prior to their receipt of 501(c)(3) status or membership. Interested community leaders should contact CMF staff. -2- �Eligibility Which organizations are eligible for the challenge grant? Michigan community foundations which are members in good standing of the Council of Michigan Foundations and which have a part-time (20 hours per week average minimum) paid or volunteer staff person. Which group will decide if we are eligible for the challenge? The Membership Committee of CMF's Board of Trustees determines membership eligibility. The staffing requirement is evaluated as part of the application. Which group will review applications and recommend grants? CMF has a special Youth Advisory Committee chaired by John E. Marshall, ill, a CMF Trustee and former Chairman, and President and Trustee of The Kresge Foundation. This committee will recommend challenges to the CMF Board of Trustees and will develop policies regarding the implementation of the grant. A list of the Advisory Committee members is enclosed. How many community foundations are eligible for the challenge? 38 community foundations are members of CMF in 1991. Not all have half-time staff, but if they fulfill the staffmg requirement they will become eligible. Emerging community foundations may become eligible as they meet the requirements of the challenge. Emerging community foundation may receive technical assistance before they are qualified to apply for the challenge. We are a new community foundation, can we qualify? Yes. CMF staff will provide technical assistance to help you ascertain your best alternatives and to become organized. As soon as you become a CMF member you may qualify for the challenge. We are a geographic affiliate of a CMF member community foundation, how do we qualify? Geographic affiliates of CMF member community foundations qualify just as if they were independent community foundations. You may use the staffing resource of the member community foundation to meet the staffing requirement. The $1 million aggregate cap for the challenge is above and beyond the $1 million cap available to the member community foundation . So, for example, the Muskegon County Community Foundation is eligible for a $1 million challenge grant and the affiliate, the Oceana County Community Foundation, is eligible for a second, separate $1 million challenge. What types of affiliations qualify the affiliate for the staffing requirement? The following arrangements are acceptable: 1. Component fund agreements 2. Supporting foundation agreements What is meant by half-time volunteer or paid staff? An individual should be identified by name by the board of the foundation as the volunteer or paid staff person. This individual should be the primary contact for the project and should demonstrate an average of at least a 20 hour per week commitment to the position. There should be posted office hours hours, a P.O. Box or street address, and a public telephone number dedicated for the community foundation. -3- �Why is a staff person required? Experience with community foundation development shows that foundations grow and mature more quickly when one person has at least half-time responsibility for staffing the tasks that need to be done. When the Board of Trustees commits to staffmg they are demonstrating their corrunitment to building the foundation to its full potential. Purposes What does the Grant hope to accomplish? The grant is organized to accomplish three major goals. To: 1. Establish permanent and growing funds within each community to meet local youth needs across the State of Michigan. 2. Expose young people, under age 21, to an experience in philanthropy and volunteerism. 3. Build and expand the network of community foundations to attempting cover the State of Michigan in order to assure every donor has access to a foundation vehicle. Parameters Is there a limit to the amount we can request? Yes, each foundation may receive up to $1 million of Kellogg funds over the five years. Is there a minimum amount we can request? Yes. The minimum is $10,000. Can we apply more than once? Yes. A member community foundation may apply as often as they would like up until March 15, 1996. If we decide to submit several applications for the challenge, do we always need to submit a comprehensive application? Retain a copy of your original application, for second and third applications you should submit an updated application form. Must we raise the match before Kellogg funds are paid? Yes. Each request requires that the full match for that request is raised before any Kellogg funds are paid. Multiple requests are permitted and expected during the five year period. What if we don't raise all of the match? CMF will help you through specific technical assistance. But, each challenge is on an "all or nothing" basis. How much time do we have to raise the match? You should provide us your deadline for each request for challenge approval in your application. You will be responsible to raise the challenge by the deadline you have stated. (But no later than Aprill, 1998.) -4- 1 �When may we start counting gifts for the match? March 1, 1991: or when you become a member of CMF. If we apply in September of 1992, can we still count gifts to the unrestricted or field-of-interest endowments since March 1, 1991? Yes Challenge Grant Detail How does the challenge work? The challenge requires $2 of local funds to be raised and placed in the permanent unrestricted fund or a field-of-interest fund of the community foundation, for each $1 of Kellogg funds received. The Kellogg funds must be permanently endowed in a youth field-of-interest fund. Why is the match limited to unrestricted and field-of-interest funds? The purpose of the challenge is to help the foundation build the most difficult and yet most important assets- field-of-interest and unrestricted endowments. These funds provide the flexible funding critical to meeting emerging community needs. What is an unrestricted fund? For the challenge grant this is a permanent endowment fund which holds gifts with no designations or preferences given by the donor regarding the distribution of interest. This fund provides the Board of Trustees with maximum flexibility to meet emerging needs and to demonstrate the value of the community foundation's grantmaking. What is a field-of-interest fund? For the challenge grant this is a series of permanent endowment funds each holding gifts given for a very broad interest area. While the donor does not specify agencies to receive funds, they do express an interest in funds going into a general area such as the arts, education, the environment, youth, etc. These funds provide the Board of Trustees with flexibility to select individual agencies and programs within each general area during various grantmaking cycles to meet the needs in that area. Please see the following chart. Field-of-Interest Funds Arts Education Environment Community Development Health Human Services Humanities Scholarships Administrative Endowment Status for Match Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes* (see Note) No, these funds are considered restricted. Note: To count as a field-of-interest fund for the grant, scholarship funds must have no further restrictions. For example, a general scholarship fund allowing the Board to select for gifts a -5- �high school student going to any college, or a non-traditional student going to a trade school would count. A scholarship fund for a senior from x high school to attend a specific university to study a specific subject would not count. A scholarship fund for the children of employees of a specific company would not count. What types of gifts count as match? The intent is to develop working assets for the community foundation to meet emerging local needs. A gift is considered to be given if it meets the IRS requirements for tax deductability. The following chart describes examples of the match status of various types of gifts. Please call if you have another or specific questions. Type of Gift Match Status Cash Yes Pledges Yes; the foundation must receive a written commitment and payment schedule for the pledge. Foundation trustees will be accountable to raise further funds to cover any unpaid pledges. Pledges cannot be for more than 5 years (or later than April1, 1998, whichever comes first). Unpaid and uncovered pledges may result in the return of Kellogg funds paid. Income producing real estate Yes: at the appraised value of the property Non income producing real estate No Other non income producing tangible property No Revocable planned gifts No Irrevocable Planned giving devices: Life Estates and Unitrusts Yes: as long as the agreement is made after March 1, 1991 and is a completed gift in the eyes of the IRS Pooled Income Funds Yes: if instituted after March 1, 1991. Count the remainder value as defmed as the charitable gift by the IRS Gifts of Insurance Yes: Count the Cash Surrender Value Publicly Traded Securities Yes Closely Held Stock Yes: Count the IRS value for donors deduction -6- �Loan Repayments No Private Foundation Tenninations or Distributions Yes: when assets are received Bequests Wills written before March 1, 1991 and gifts received after March 1, 1991 Yes: but not more than 50% of the match to be raised can come from a bequest written prior to March 1, 1991 Wills written after March 1, 1991 and gifts received after March 1, 1991 Yes: the gift will count 100% if received before April 1998. Mentioned in a will No: wills can be changed. We have a private foundation whose trustees are willing to transfer assets into a field-of-interest fund if they may continue to serve as advisors on the distribution of interest during their lifetimes. Upon their retirement and/or death the advisory privilege will end. May we count this as a fieldof-interest fund? Yes. Provided the corpus or a portion of the corpus is transferred permanently as an endowed community foundation asset and the current trustees act only in an advisory capacity on grantmak:ing from interest. The agreement to end the advisory privilege upon the retirement or death of the advisors must be irrevocable. Do pledges claimed for the first Kellogg challenge count when they are paid for the second challenge? No, you may only count them once either as pledges received for the fliSt challenge or as cash match for the second challenge. Does the source of the match gift matter? Can government or private foundations give us the funds? The source of the gift does not matter. All gifts count as long as they are permanent unrestricted or field-of-interest funds. The intent is to build flexible endowments. If we use our interest dollars to fund the unrestricted fund or a field-of-interest fund will it count as match? No. Can the major donor of a field-of-interest fund serve on an Advisory Committee to that field-ofinterest fund? Yes, if the Board of Trustees, not the donor, selects the other advisors. The Advisory Committee must be at least three people with only one being the major donor. The Board of Trustees should view the Advisory Committee as purely an advice giving body. The fund must be permanently endowed with only the interest available for distribution. The Board of Trustees must retain the right to appoint, schedule meetings, reconstitute and disband the committee as they see fit. -7- �Will named funds count? Yes, as long as they are unrestricted or a field-of-interest permanent funds. What if one donor gives to more than one field-of-interest fund? The gifts to each fund can all count as match. If we can float a municipal bond issue as a gift to the community foundation, can we use the interest on the funds to pay back the bond? No. We have a donor willing to name us in his will. May we count this as a gift since we know the amount? No. A donor can change a will, and you do not know when, or if, this gift will be made. We have been given a $100,000 gift in March of 1991 and we are still working on the first challenge. The first challenge has a $25,000 cap for any single gift, can we count $25,000 toward the first challenge and $75,000 toward the second? Yes, assuming the gift meets other requirements such as being an unrestricted or field-of-interest gift. If the corpus of a donor advised fund is permanently transferred to the unrestricted or a field-of- interest fund, does it count as match? Yes, you may receive not more than half of your local match by this type of transfer. Does fee income, generated by assessing a fee to restricted funds, if endowed for the unrestricted or field-of-interest fund, count as match? No. We have raised the challenge grant match for our first challenge, but our youth committee has not yet made grant decisions. How do we qualify for the second challenge? If you have received Kellogg funds under the first challenge you must complete all of the requirements of that challenge before becoming eligible to apply for the second challenge. You must have staff, and the youth committee must have completed all steps of assessing needs - raising funds and giving funds away. You may still count as match gifts received since March 1, 1991 but your challenge will not be approved until all steps are completed. How often will challenge grants be paid? Challenge grants will be paid twice per year upon acceptance of all reports. Reports will include the names of donors, date of gift, the amount of each gift, and whether the gift is unrestricted or for an identified field-of-interest. Reports will be notarized. Upon compliance with all challenge grant requirements, grants will be paid. Reporting dates for processing challenge grant payments are September 1 and March 1. -8- �Youth Project What about the youth component? The Kellogg funds received must be permanently endowed in a youth field-of-interest fund. The field-of-interest fund must have a Youth Advisory Committee. At least 50% of the Advisory Committee must be composed of young people (under age 21 ). Why is there a Youth Committee? The purpose of the Kellogg funds is to empower young people, use their energy and insight, and to provide young people with a real experience in philanthropy. Also the gift provides permanent funds to meet local youth needs. Does it matter who serves on our Youth Committee? The youth project for the community foundation has two components: - the youth committee which is involved in philanthropy and - the volunteer program. The committees and the youth grants should demonstrate sensitivity to the appropriate racial, gender, geographic and ethnic composition of the community served. What does the Youth Committee do? The youth committee must: 1. assess local youth needs, 2. assist in raising a portion of the grant funds, and 3. advise on grants to be made to meet local needs. May we make a grant to another agency to provide the Youth Advisory Committee component? No. The youth advisory committee must be organized as an advisory board to the permanent youth field-of-interest fund and, is an organizational component of the community foundation. A grant may be made to provide staff support for the youth advisory tasks, but the committee must advise the foundation. May we make a grant to another agency to provide the youth volunteerism component? Yes. How can the youth committee give youth grants before we receive the Kellogg match? The youth committee should be organized, engage in local needs assessment, decide on grantmaking parameters and needs, and assist in the raising of part of the match before the challenge grant is received. Once the challenge grant is received and endowed, the youth committee will have 18 months in which to make the first grant. (Kellogg funds may be endowed for one year before making youth grants in order to earn interest for grantmaking purposes in year two.) An approach which wHl be viewed favorably by the Youth Project Advisory Committee is to allow the youth committee to practice grantmaking with community foundation unrestricted funds allocated for that purpose before the Kellogg funds are received. -9- �What are the requirements of the youth volunteerism component? In order to spread the experiences of volunteerism and philanthropy beyond the small group of young people involved on the youth advisory committee, each community foundation is asked to design and implement a strategy to involve a larger number of young people in their community in volunteerism. How is this done? Each community foundation should design a program or pursue a strategy which makes sense for them. Grants to youth serving agencies, leading a school based volunteerism effort, establishing a volunteer center with a youth component are among alternatives which might be considered. The plan for this component must be in the application, but the foundation has 24 months following the completion of the final challenge in order to implement their plan. Verification and Reporting How will the match be verified? The community foundation will submit a report that the match has been raised with a notarized statement verifying the match. Upon successful completion of the report, funds will be granted. How will staffing be verified? CMF will review payroll and/or time sheet records to verify a minimum of half-time staffing. How will CMF evaluate the youth project component? CMF will have a resource person available to work with your youth committees on a regular basis. Also, an outside evaluation team will be retained, both to provide ongoing feedback during the project and a final evaluation at the end of the project. The evaluators will look at both individual programs and at CMF's performance. A longitudinal study will be initiated to determine if a philanthropic youth experience does affect the long-term philanthropic behavior of the young people involved in the project. What will the reporting be like? During the project, each community foundation must provide a written project report on the progress of the challenge annually. CMF will track the amounts and types of youth grants made by the youth committees over the next ten years. The outside evaluators will track the progress of the development of community foundations in Michigan and the future behaviors of the youth involved in the project. These reporting formats will be developed once the Evaluation team is hired. Application Process How do we apply? The application format is available from CMF. The approach is developmental, asking you to think through the growth of your foundation and to describe your plans for using this grant to help you build your organization You will be expected to follow the plans you present. -10- "' �When may we apply?

Mini-grants are available to help defray the costs of specialized outside consultants' help that each community foundation member may choose to engage to meet specific needs. Any one foundations use of the mini-grants cannot exceed an average of $500 per year or a total of $2,500 over the five years of the grant. What are scholarships? Scholarship grants will pay for one-half of the cost of all related expenses for one person per year to attend any formal training program which will help with the organizational development of the foundation including programs for the professional development of staff. What is customized consulting? CMF staff can provide indepth and customized consultation with your foundation including the facilitation of strategic plan development, Board and staff retreats, problem-solving onsite, assistance with youth program development, Board training on asset development or grantmaking, meetings with community agencies, speeches to community groups, drafting of brochures and speeches, and other organizational development issues. Specialized consulting goes beyond the day-to-day support offered by CMF staff. How does the legal consultation work? If you have a legal question you should consult with your foundation attorney. If they do not have the answer call CMF. If CMF staff does not have the answer, we will consult with the appropriate attorney from an identified pool of community foundation legal specialists. How does the Planned Giving Assistance work? If you have a question regarding a donor and a potential planned gift andfor a planned giving program you should first ask your local estate planning attorneys for assistance. If they do not have the answer, call CMF. If CMF staff does not have the answer, we will consult with the appropriate planned giving expertise from an identified pool of specialists. Both the legal consultation and the planned giving consultation will develop as the project progresses and may result in written monographs on issues as they arise and specialized training. How does the training work? CMF provides formal educational opportunities for individuals with varying degrees of expertise in the community foundation field. All training is subsidized. Community foundations are asked to pay toward the direct expenses (meals, for example) involved with their individual participation. The current educational opportunities include: CMF Fall Conference- this is the major and most significant educational opportunity bringing together the grantmaking foundations in the State for two and one-half days to hear nationally recognized speakers and participate in specially designed workshops. Specialized Retreats - overnight retreats are scheduled for professional staff members which allow an opportunity for indepth and informal discussions of issues confronting their organizations. The retreats are organized based on the positions held. They include: -14- �Full-time, paid Executive Directors and Presidents, Half-time paid and volunteer Directors, Managers, and A one-day meeting for professional support staff. Spring School - a one-day session, usually in March, held on a technical topic such as legal issues or planning. Summer Seminar - a two-day session, held in the summer, for slcill development such as negotiating or leading change. "Boot Camp" - a one-day Saturday session held in the Spring or a three-hour workshop held during the CMF Conference to orient new staff and trustees to the specifics of running a community foundation. Other topics: from time-to-time other educational opportunities are provided in response to specific requests from members. What is the Statewide Youth meeting? This new grant allows CMF to sponsor an Annual Meeting for the young people involved in the community foundation youth advisory committees. Details regarding this conference will be developed. How do the publications work? CMF has funds to publish materials of help to members. Publication topics and materials will be developed during the project reflective of the needs as they emerge. These publications will be distributed to members. How do the library services work? The library at C:MF holds resources related both to the management of community foundations (such as asset development and board relations) and the topical areas of interest for grantmaking (such as AIDS and homelessness). Bibliographies of the books, magazines, tapes and videos will be available. CMF also has substantial resource files with sample documents which are available to you by calling for information. How does the mentorship work? The mentorship program provides the pairing of an experienced community foundation volunteer or executive with a person or community foundation new to the field. CMF provides a small stipend to cover telephone calls and at least one visit to each of the two foundations involved in the relationship. Mentorships are designed to enhance the technical assistance available from CMF and not supplant it. If you would like either to be a mentor, or to have a mentor, fill out the Application for Specialized Technical Assistance. What are common needs and how does this work? The common needs are technical assistance funds available to CMF to meet the overall needs of the field. For example, to pursue a statewide strategy to educate estate planning attorneys about community foundations or to stimulate Editorial Boards to write about community foundations. These strategies will be developed by the Community Foundation Committee of the Board of Trustees which is composed of member community foundation representatives. -15- �When can I apply for mini-grants? You may apply at any 6me. How long must I wait for an approval for specialized technical assistance? You should receive a response from CMF staff within two weeks of your application.
