Johnson Council of Michigan Foundations Program Fund - Proposed Policy Background The Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) was granted $2 million for a community foundation youth program by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. The funds are to be used to provide challenge grants for Michigan community foundations under guidelines approved by the CMF Board of Trustees and described elsewhere in the November 2, 1988 board materials, between 1988 - 1991. In addition, CMF received $60,000 towards administrative expenses for the three-year period. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation has made the total payment of $2,060,000 on June 10, 1988 and September 6, 1988 with the condition that the interest earned be allocated as follows: 1. Payment for expenses associated with administration of community foundation program. A three-year administrative budget was submitted along with the grant request. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation is interested in having CMF use the interest earned to take advantage of special opportunities associated with the grant (additional training, scholarships, additional publications, etc.). 2. Program Fund. A fund will be established with the additional interest earned to enhance CMF programs, particularly for, but not limited to, annual conference plenary speakers. Program Fund It is proposed that CMF operate the fund under the following guidelines: -Funds will be invested in government securities, commercial paper and certificates of deposit. Funds will not be invested in equity market. -CMF Board of Trustees will approve Community Foundation Youth Initiative budget annually, as part of regular budget process. -Interest earned will be transferred annually from Community Foundation Youth Program to Program Fund. �-Program Fund will be invested in a separate account. -All expenditures from Program Fund will be approved by the Board of Trustees or Executive Committee. -Both interest earned and principal may be used as deemed desirable. -Funds may be used to: 1. Supplement or pay for expenses associated with plenary speakers for annual conference. Traditionally CMF has not paid honorariums but relied on speaker interest in addressing grantmakers and/or the voluntary contributions of CMF Members to pay honoraniums and expenses. With the increased level of expectation of conferees, it is important for the many purposes served by CMF that a critical mass of grantmakers meet, at least annually, to discuss mutual interests and concerns. Grantmaking is enhanced and hopefully the quality of life is improved for Michigan citizens. Recognized plenary speakers addressing timely subjects increase participation. Confirmation of these speakers at an early date is also important. CMF will continue to rely on Members who generously assume speaker expenses. 2. jlf/725B Enhance other CMF one-time programming efforts as deemed desirable by Board of Trustees or Executive Committee. A project, which many qualify in this arena is the redesigning of CMF printed materials including letterhead, publication covers and annual report. A coordinated "corporate" look using simple and inexpensive materials is desirable. This one-time expense could not be covered in the regular operating CMF budget. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

A committee was appointed, under the chairmanship of Gilbert Hudson, President of the Hudson-Webber Foundation. They identified eleven goals and outlined strategies for pursuing them. In the years since, much progress has been made. At the same time as these new initiatives have begun to bear fruit, the level and quality of existing CMF services and programs have been maintained and enhanced . The present Progress Report addresses each of the eleven goals originally identified and details what has been accomplished to date in reaching them. Many of these accomplishments are well known to the CMF Board and to others, but perhaps i t is not always clear how they grow from and fulfill the vision of the Strategic Planning Committee. This Report is a review of progress made , and also an attempt to draw together the many components of the Plan first envisioned and articulated in 1984 . Each of the eleven goals is restated, with information following on what has so far been accomplished to fulfill these goals . For purposes of this report, the Executive Committee has graded each goal as follows: (1) - Fine progress; (2) - On-going; (3) - Needs work . GOAL 1: To increase private and community foundation and corporate grantmaking resources in the state of Michigan. Private Foundations - (1) In 1986 the "Increasing Philanthropy" committee was formed. In an effort to increase priv ate and community foundation and corporate grantmaking resources in Michigan, Mr. Duane L. Tarnacki, attorney, Clark, Klein & Beaumont, prepared and published Establishing A Charitable Foundation in Michigan . The committee sponsored five charitable giving seminars across the state. Over 300 attorneys, tax accountants, estate planners and investment counselors attended the seminar series. Two updates of Establishing a Charitable Foundation in Michigan have been published and distributed, with two updates to follow next year. Over 400 copies of the book hav e been sold . �-2- In the past few years, articles have appeared in the Probate & Estate Planning Section of the Michigan Bar Association and mailing lists have been secured from the Taxation Section of the State Bar Association. Since the inception of the program, the number of private foundations has increased 10% to over 900 Michigan private foundations, and gifts to communityfoundations have increased 20%. While many factors outside the control of CMF contribute to increased philanthropy -- economy, tax ledgislation, need -- CMF can take some pride in the increase. There is no way to accurately measure the number of new corporate giving programs, however, if increased number of inquiries is any guide, some progress has been made. Community Foundations - (1) Technical assistance has been given to Brighton, Cadillac, Downriver Community Conference, Farmington, Houghton/Hancock, Lansing, Ludington, Manistee and Marquette. As a result of this effort, Lansing , Ludington and Manistee have since established community foundations. The State of Michigan Energy Initiative grant of $3 million has enabled 14 community foundations to increase their resources by challenge grants. CMF has established a fund for donors who wish to contribute to the energy match . Consumers Power Company made the first gift. The CMF Community Foundation Strategy Team worked to strengthen Michigan community foundations in cooperation with two private foundations . CMF has received a $150,000 grant from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation to provide technical assistance to Michigan community foundations beginning July 1 , 1988 - June 30 , 1991. CMF has received a $2,060,000 grant from the W,K, Kellogg Foundation to encourage youth development in local communities throughout the state while strengthening community foundation leadership and grantmaking capacity. The 1988-1991 program will provide $2 million in challenge grant funds for Michigan community foundations. Corporate Grantmaking - (3) The Michigan Foundation Directory has a section documenting corporate grantmaking activity . In continuing to meet the needs of Corporate Grantmakers, meetings have been held with the Michigan State Chamber of Commerce and local Chambers of Commerc e . For the past three years, the Michigan State Chamber of Comme r ce and the Gr eater Detroit Chamber of Commerce, in cooperation with CMF, have cosponsored seminars for corporate grantmakers. Over 250 c orporate officers, CEO's and staff have participated. �l -3- GOAL 2: Launch an aggressive membership campaign. - (1) Since the inception of the Strategic Plan in 1985, CMF membership has increased by 19%. Private Foundations Community Foundations Corporations TOTAL 1984-85 1985-86 1986-87 1987-88 120 127 129 149 28 27 28 29 ___ll ~ ____2.Q ____2.Q 192 207 207 228 Presently thirty-six of the top 100 corporations in Michigan belong to CMF. Fifteen corporations were contacted by the Membership Committee members in 1987. CMF has regularly contacted by phone and mail all community foundations in the state not currently members . GOAL 3: Expand services to corporate grantmakers. - (3) The fourth annual corporate grantmaker's workshop was held May 5, 1988 at the St . Regis Hotel, Detroit. This workshop and the previous workshops have been cosponsored by the Michigan State Chamber of Commerce and the Greater Detroit Chamber of Commerce, in cooperation with the Council of Michigan Foundations. Attendance ranges from 65-90 corporate officers, CEO's, and staff. Topics have focused on "The Value of Giving," "The Business of Grantmaking," "Trends and Issues/Management and Process," and "Linking Your Corporate Grantmaking Strategices to State and Community Plans." A Michigan Corporate Matching Gift Programs manual has been published. More than 200 copies have been sold to date. The Michigan State Chamber of Commerce refers corporations interested in forming a charitable program to CMF . GOAL 4: Expand services to community foundations. - (1) Thirty-one community foundations have received technical assistance from CMF in the last three years. Bi - monthly community foundation memos to members continue to be circulated, reporting on the activities of all Member community foundations. Over seventy-five community foundation representatives met with the CMF Board of Trustees on June 5, 1986, in Grand Haven to discuss community foundation development . �- 4June 25/26, 1987 a community foundation workshop was held on administrative and grantmaking concerns shared by CMF community foundation members. Seventeen Member foundations were represented. Two sessions are held each year at the annual conference, focusing on issues relevant to the community foundation audience. The Community Foundation Scholarship Program was initiated to encourage foundations with assets under $10 million to take part in educational opportunities offered by CMF and COF at a reduced fee schedule. Over 120 trustees took advantage of the program at the 14th and 15th CMF annual conference, which represents 25~ more participation from community foundation trustees than in previous years. A community foundation manual has been published by the Council on Foundations with excerpts from CMF and other community foundations around the U.S . Updates have been supplied from CMF upon request. The State of Michigan Energy Initiative grant of $3 million helped 14 community foundations to increase their assets by challenge grants. Grant proposals have been approved by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation and the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation for a community foundation youth initiative program and a technical assistance program respectively . Community foundations have shared visitation programs with private and corporate foundations in Midland, Kalamazoo, Grand Rapids and Battle Creek . GOAL 5: Expand services to Trustees within current programming. - (2) Each year the annual CMF conference has specific sessions for Trustees. CMF sponsors a series of Spring Schools each year on topics of interest to officers, trustees, and staff of private foundations, community foundations, banks , and corporations and corporate giving foundations. Over 50 CMF members attend each of our Spring School sessions. CMF facilitates the De troit Area Grantmakers' monthly meetings. Topics each month focus on issues concerning the Detroit area. Approximately 10 trustees join the group of 30-40 each month. GOAL 6: Services to unstaffed foundations should be emphasized. - (2) Consultations with this group from the CMF office have increased averaging twenty calls per week. Unstaffed foundations rely heavily on Memo to Members, Conference and workshops, and telephone and in- person consultations. �l_ -5GOAL 7: GRANTEE ISSUES - Continue cooperation with grantees as long as i t is in CMF Member's best interest and does not commit much CMF time and resources. - ( 2 ) CMF represents Members with grantee organizations as it is useful for all partieis. CMF continues to cosponsor seminars with such organizations as the Michigan League for Human Services , the Accounting Aid Society of Detroit , the Midwest Museums Conference, the Michigan Community Action Agency, and the Michigan Hispanic Conference as time , circumstances and resources dictate. Information packets, including a directory brochure and a copy of "Survey and Information for Seeking Foundation and Corporate Grants," are distributed to participants at each of these seminars. More than 60 Members have addressed grantsmanship topics at CMF cosponsored workshops. Video tapes are offered on a rental or purchase basis for many of these seminars. The Sixth Edition of the Michigan Foundati on Directory will be published and ready for release in early fall, 1988. Sales of previous Editions I-V have encouraged expansion in each of the following editions. While CMF cannot claim "credit," there is general agreement among grantmakers that the quality and timeliness of proposals has increased . GOAL 8: Current program services are to be continued and promotion for all services should be increased. - (1) CMF program services continue, as stated in Plan of Work, while each year new and expanded ideas are added. As services are expanded to Members and other nonprofit organizations , the need for more professional promotional materials has also increased. Mr. Robert E. Hencey, Director of Communication s & Dissemination , W.K. Kellogg Foundation has designed our conference materials in the past and will continue to do so in the future. We have also used his expertise on the design of our directory, survey and other promotional materials. His help has substantially improved the professionalis m of CMF's image. CMF publishes an annual report yearly . The 1984-85 report featured a new format which included expanded information, photographs and dialogue. Each subsequent report has reinforced this concept. GOAL 9: Establish "Advisory Cabinet" of retired CMF Board. - (1) The function of the Advisory Cabinet is to recognize the members' service and to learn from their experiences how CMF c a n continue to best serve the field. Since the formation of the Advisory Cabinet in 1984, over 12 members have met each year at the Annual Conference to give guidance and make suggestions concerning the future of CMF. GOAL 10: Consider suggested "standards of practice". - (1) At the June, 1986 Board of Trustees meeting, the Board of Trustees accepted the Membership Committee's recommendatio n not to adopt a formal "standa rds of practice" but instead circu late materials on good foundation practice. �-6- Goal 1 1: Change name of Council of Michigan Foundations as Board of Trustees considers timely. - (1) At the June 14 , 1985 Board of Trustees meeting , the Boar d voted to continue with the current name for the present but to use with "Council of Michigan Foundations" the further explanation, "an association of foundations and corporations making grants for charitable purposes . " This addition was needed to make it clear that corporations are "equal" members of the Council , and to fulfill the Strategic Planning Committee ' s intent of increasing membership as well as services among corporate grantmakers . : 1492C � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Foundation Center Regional Collections CMF continues its liasion with the nine librarians at Foundation Center Regional Collections. They receive the Memo to Members, "The Michigan Scene", Annual Conference mailings, and other timely information about the Council, foundations and corporations, and philanthropy in the state. Stevie Hertz continues as our volunteer contact from CMF. �5. Legislative Seminars Seminars with state of Michigan government/executive and legislative staff will be held in the future to educate government representatives about the contributions of foundations and corporations to the field of philanthropy. Using the Michigan Foundation Directory, it was felt that a further arena for presentation would be at state caucuses; i.e. talk about human service needs in the state and how foundations can help . 6. The Michigan Scene The tabloid is distributed to nearly 4,000 organizations in the s t ate and nation. John Allen, editor, continues to provide excellent coverage of CMF events and news stories on philanthropy in Michigan. Summer issue to be mailed July 5, 1988. 7.

The book contains 60 corporations and foundations Two hundred fifty with matching gift programs, descriptions and sample forms. (250) copies of the book were printed with 5 copies remaining. 8. Other News The two reprints from the Michigan Foundation Di rectory, edition V; "Information for Seeking Foundation and Corporate Grants" - 7,500 distributed and "Survey of Michigan Philanthropy " - 3,000 distributed, continue their appeal with both the grantmaking and grantseeking community. Both are given free of charge to attendees at grantseeking seminars and at nonprofit organization meetings. 9. Proposal Book A book of proposals from Michigan foundations and corporations was assembled and distributed to the nine regional col l ections. There have been inquiries from other regional collections in the United States interested in purchasing the book . The committee is in the process of ascertaining whether the book may h~e a wider audience and whether CMF should publish t he book.

Patterson Ranny Riecker Leonard W. Smith William s. White Improving Philanthropy Project - - Progress Report The committee met on Wednesday, March 23, 1988 at the W.K . Kellogg Foundation, at which time it reviewed the focus projects and initiated the following future steps: 1. Technical Assistance Directory The Michigan Nonprofit Resource Directory, published jointly by the Accounting Aid Soc iety of Detroit and the Council of Michigan Foundations, was received this month from the printe r and more than 300 copies have been sold to date. Although the edltion was two months behind schedule, we are pleased with the fin a l product and its sales record. Plans call for the management resource to be updated every three years. The Committee will continue to mo nitor the directory sales, but otherwise, considers this focus of the proj ect completed. 2. The Governor's Award After researching existing v olunteer recognition programs and writi ng a model proposal, the Committee evaluated the current and potential awards in light of the Council's priorities regarding quality control, allocation of resources, and conflict of interest. The Committee weighed what it felt to be contributions of distinction fo r CMF against what it perceived as the long- range impact of an additional v olunteer honor, and f e lt that it was NOT in the best interest of the Council to proceed with the development of a new Governor 's Award for Voluntary Contribution at this time. The Committee is, h oweve r, offe ring the Council's assistance to t he Greater Michigan Fo undati o n , should it wish to extend the part ic i pation or visibility of its existing Mich igan Week Volunteer Awards to a concept comparable to the President's Volunte er Awards. We are hopeful that GMF 's future vision will accommodate this concept. 3. The Academic Cente r The Committee s tud i ed the summary of the survey o f Michigan's higher educational institutions and concluded that although some activiti e s are being offered in the areas of philanthropy and vo lunteer i s m, no �Board Project Progress Report June 1, 1988 Page - 2 ful l y-developed cou rse or comprehensive program exists at any present location. The following areas o f interest to the Committee were identified: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Undergraduate Curriculum a. Volunteer service - - "for-credit" and "no n-credit" community and campus activities. b. General citizenship and leadership classes -- interdisciplinary study with a focus on nonprofit organizational activities. Graduate level study -- coursework and d egree programs for students and professionals interested in nonprofit administration. In- service Training -- continuing education programs for professional and citizen participants. Research Programs - - faculty and student projects. Technical Assistance -- services to apply academic resources to nonprofit activity problem- solving. The Committee directed its next efforts toward assessing the interest of nonprofit service and grant making organizations regarding educational opportunities in the areas of philanthropy and volunteerism. Surveys have been designed and are in the process of being evaluated and tested before being distributed to statewide organizations. It is anticipated that the results of these instruments will be helpful in assisting the Committee in its advocacy efforts with the educational institutions to encourage fu t ure developments in this area. 4. The Campus Compact Program A new focus area which the Committee is considering is a national program of the Educati on Commis sion of the States (ECS) which promotes a public service ethic among students. Susan Schwartz, ECS's Assistant Director of Campus Compact, visited Michigan in December and again May 26, 1988, to discuss strategies about launching a Michigan program with the Presidents of Albion and Michigan State . CMF was represented at the latter meeting by Dottie Johnson. As a result of these meetings, Presiden~ John DiBiaggio of Michigan State has agreed to have the office for a statewide Campus Compact on the MSU campus. Tentative plans call for building a coalition of at least five private and five public colleges and , universities to form the nucleus of a statewi de compact. The Kresge Foundation is willing to l oan one of its staff members, Debra Wallace, on a part-time basis to facilitate this effort should the Michigan Compact need her expertise. The Committee will be evaluating whether or not there is an appropriate role for CMF in supporting this program as an advocate between the University and the community it is trying to serv e . 5. Next Steps It is anticipated that the Committee will meet again in September to study the results of the nonprofit service and grant making organizations' surveys, and to direct future actions. Chief among them will be encouraging the State's institutions of higher education to offer training opportunities for nonprofits, and working with funders to be supportive of such opportunities, should they arise.

The original l egislative statement was adopted March 1, 1979, followed by revisions as of September 19, 1980; January 27, 1982; May 10, 1983; and June 14, 198~. The proposed changes take into account recent Tax Acts and the efforts of the Council on Foundations and other Regional Associations of Grantmakers. II . Legislativ e Network A list of current congressional network is enclosed for your information and comment . The indiv idual no t ed has volunteered to take primary responsibility in making contact. Work continues on a state network which is being enha nced with the current effort to obtain legislation for the community foundation tax credit. III. Current Legislativ e Developments Activity continues on the state leve l to obtain a tax credit for contributions to commun ity foundations a nd the technical correction s bill for nonprofit volunteer directors. A verbal repo rt will be made at the Board of Trustees meeting. �Council of VMicftigan VFoundatiorts C,_,;\N[i HA\ tt\. Ml •l'l~ 17 COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS Legislative Agenda The Council of Michigan Foundations supports tax policy and regulations advantageous to the creation and operation of private and community foundations and corporate giving programs. PRIORITIES FOR 1988-89 National 1. Reduce private foundation excise tax to a flat 1 percent. The 1984 Tax Reform Act gave each private foundation an opportunity to reduce its excise tax on investment income from 2 percent to 1 percent by meeting certain requirements showing that it was maintaining its percentage payout and translating the tax savings into additional qualifying distributions. In practice, satisfying the rules has proven very difficult for most foundations. Moreover, the new rule has the adverse effect of penalizing certain foundations who have made a particularly large payout in recent years. 2. Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer for a gift to a private foundation of certain capital gain property. ~ Until 1994 , individual taxpayers may deduct the full fair market value of a gift of appreciated property in the form of publicly traded stock if the gift is less than 10~ of the outstanding stock of the company. However, in other cases, such as privately held stock, the amount of the deduction is limited to the donor's cost or basis in the stock if the gift is to a private non-operating foundation. The same gift to a public charity entitles the taxpayer to a full fair market value deduction. 3. Allow private foundations to place greater reliance on IRS Determination Letters for newly organized grantees. The U.S. Treasury Department has been directed to extend up to five years the advance ruling period during which qualifying new organizations are considered public c harities, and to permit greater reliance on IRS classifications for new organizations during the first five years of their existence . However, revised regulations have not yet been promulgated. 4. Establish a small grant rule, which would allow grants for c haritable purposes of le ss than $25,000 to be free of "expenditure responsibility." Curre ntly, if a private founda tion makes a grant for a charitable purpose to an organization without IRS tax c lassificat ion as a public charity, the found a tion must assume "expenditure r esponsib ility ." This is a costly and time consuming function for private fou ndations , and most will not undertake the responsibility. Others are discouraged about the amount of paperwork necessary for a grant of les s than $25,000. �-2- 5. Create a 50~ state income tax credit for contributions by individuals and businesses to Michigan community foundations. Michigan tax law currently provides a 50~ income tax credit for contributions to public broadcast stations, public libraries, college foundations and institutions of higher learning located in this state. Community foundations directly benefit Michigan citizenry by developing and supporting valuable programs that would otherwise be provided by state or local government. The tax credit would promote contributions to community foundations. 6. Limit the tort liability of unpaid volunteers of nonprofit corporations. Individuals are often reluctant to act as volunteers on behalf of charitable organizations for fear that they will be sued for acts or omissions committed in furtherance of these duties. The prospect of personal liability for acts performed on the behalf of charity can be a serious deterrent to the spirit of volunteerism. Michigan law currently permits nonprofit corporations to limit the l iability of their volunteer directors . This proposal would a l so provide protection to volunteer officers and the volunteer "work force" behind the organization. 7. Make technical corrections to 1987 Public Act 170 which permits a nonprofit corporation to limit the liability of its volunteer directors. 1987 Public Act 170 permits a nonprofit corporation to limit the liability of its volunteer directors to the corporation and its members. A nonprofit corporation described in IRC Section 50l(c)(3) can also eliminate the liability of its volunteer directors to third parties by assuming that liability. The Nonprofit Corporation Subcommittee of the Corporation, Finance and Business Law Section of the State Bar of Michigan has proposed technical corrections to the legislation consistent with the intention of the legislature. Most important among these proposed changes is a provision that relates to the requirement that a Section 50l(c)(3) corporation, in order to eliminate the liability of its volunteer directors to third parties, assume that liability regardless of the context in which the liability arises . The proposal would limit the liabil ities assumed to those incurred in the good faith performance of the director's duties as a director . PRIORITIES 1990 and BEYOND National 1. Change the limitation o n gifts to a private foundation from 20 percent to 50 percent. Under existing law, the amount deductibl e by an individual taxpayer for contributions to private non-operating foundations is computed as a percentage of the donor's contribution base (in most cases, his or her adjusted gross income). An individual may deduct only 20 percent of the gifts of appreciated property or 30 percent of gifts of cash. On the other hand, an individual t a xpayer can deduct up to 50 percent of his contribution base for gifts to public charities. �-32. Allow private foundations to charge their investment expenses to their required payout amount for charitable purposes. Trustees have two major responsibilities -- investing assets and making grants. Reasonable costs to exercise both responsibilities should be counted toward payout. 3. Exclude from the formula used to compute the excise tax on private foundation net investment income any capital gain realized in the fiscal year in question. Private foundations are not allowed to car ry forward capital losses when computing excise tax on private foundation net investment income, but must pay on capital gains. Consistent approach would make more grant dollars available to grantees. 4. Extend the declaratory judgment procedure to various private foundation issues including set asides, individual grant programs, and company scholarship programs. Presently, there is no way for a private foundation to litigate . It is proposed to extend declaratory judgment procedures to i ssues which require advance IRS action. MONITOR AND SEEK LEGISLATIVE ACTION AS APPROPRIATE National 1. Respond to IRS Study of . 65 grant administrative cost limitation for private foundations as appropriate. The 1984 Tax Reform Act introduced a new restriction of private foundation s. In meeting the five percent minimum payout requirement, grant administrative expenses in excess of .65 percent of assets can no longer be counted. Grant administrative costs can exceed the .65 limit ; but the excess cannot count towards meeting the payout minimum. The IRS Study of prjvate foundation administrative costs is due January 1, 1990. 2. Maintain the private foundation payout rate at not more than five percent. In order to preserve the "real" grantmaking capacity of a private foundation, it is important that inflation be taken into consideration. portion of annual income should be returned to principal. 3. Provide legislative relief to community foundations if i t can be demonstrated that serious public-support test problems are occurring. As an absolute minimum, community foundations must annually demonstrate that at least 10 percent of their total s upport is public support. Since endowment (or investment income) does not count as public support, those community foundations who are especially successful in building their endowments run the risk of failing this public support test. A �l -4- 4. Establish an exception from the rule against self-dealing for premiums paid for D&O insurance. Presently, a small fraction of the premiums paid for directors and officers liability insurance must be treated as compensation to private foundation managers. Calculating the correct amount is complex, and the resulting compensation is normally inconsequential, yet considerable staff time and legal fees are continually incurred to prevent penalties for self-dealing . 5. Amend the tax code to allow 50l(c)(3) charities, including private and community foundations, to establish a "common investment fund." The tax code now permits colleges and universities to establish a "common fund" organized and ope rated solely to hold, co-mingle, and collectively invest and re-invest in stocks and securities. This arrangement has resulted in very beneficial investment results. CMF Activity 1. Regularly communicate with elected officials of federal and state levels about foundation and corporate giving activities and concerns. 2. Encourage Members to report grants and activities to government officials and establish mechanisms to assist Members in reporting their grants. Encourage Members to meet as a group with their legislator to discuss the local contribution of community and private foundations and corporate giving programs. 3. Support public reporting for foundations, beyond the reports required by law , and provide technical assistance for those foundations seeking to print an annual report or guidelines. Assist in distribution efforts . 4. Continue efforts to explain foundations and corporate giving programs to the genera~ public and grantee organizations. Where appropriate, CMF will work with grantee organizations on issues of mutual interest . jmc:1585C June 10, 1988 �Tab 7 Council ofVMicltigan l'oundatiorts L. -1-< C N• H•\rm1 r, /1VENLE ,, ') BOX "9J (,R,\\J[ '1!1V[N.

Background The Public I ssu es Committee was formed in 1 981 in response to Membe r s ' request t o consider is sues of general interest or appeal. Since that time , two i ssues, The Economic Alliance and the Michigan Donor's Emergency Loan Fund, have come b efore the committee . The board has taken the same action as recommended above. For an i ssue to be cons i dered, i t must be raised by a CMF Member or commi ttee. The Public Issues Committee met Apr il 1 9, 1988 to consider the Nonprofits ' Limited Liability Pool at the request of the CMF Government Relations Committee . They l earned abo ut the poo l and the Nonprofits ' Coaliti on for Insurance Education whi l e evaluating SB 19, the bi ll signed i nto law wh ich exempts volunteer tr u stees of nonp r ofit c hari table organizations from personal li ability fo r organizational activities . In addit i o n , r e presentatives of t h e Coa lition met with P ubli c Issues Chai r man, Leo Brennan before the meeting t o exp l a in t h e i ssue. �The Coalition is composed of more than 130 Michigan nonprofit organizations who raised more than $40,000 to solve the problem of excessive liability insurance costs. Primary leadership is provided by the Michigan League for Human Services, State Office on Aging, United Community Services of Metropolitan Detroit, and United Way of Michigan. The Coalition conducted a survey of over 700 agencies regarding their claims and premium experience in August 1986. The data showed that the total of all claims over the past five years was equal to about 25 percent of just the 1986 premium payout. The Public Issues Committee recognizes the merit of the program, the details of which are described on the following pages . LJB/jlf/5988 enclosure �Apr If 11, 1988 Nonproflts' Coal ltlon for Insurance Education NONPROFITS 1 LIMITED LIABILITY POOL BAO<GROUND When Chapter 65 of P. A. 173 was enacted Into law in 1986, It made possible the formation of self-insurance pools for nonprofit organizations besides just units of government. Before this law It was generally not possible to form such programs. A few had been formed off-shore In the Carrlbean Islands but the start-up costs have become too high in recent times to be a realistic option for nonprofit organizations. In addition, such programs operate outside of the regulatory reach of Michigan law and good accountab i lity is difficult to maintain. Under Chapter 65, the section of the law that enables the formation of limited liability Insurance pools, lim ited self-insurance pools may be formed by meeting the following criteria: 1. Demonstrate to the Insur ance Commissioner unava I I ab i I Ity II ab i I lty Insurance or unavailabi I ity at a reasonable cost. the Commissioner deems Insura nces to be t oo costly unavailable, he Issues an authorization for the formation the pool. 2. Engage 50 or more member organizations, up for the pool • 3. Deposit with the State Treasurer $300,000 or 10 collected premium, whichever is greater, as a reserve. / 4. Obtain a certificate of authority from the Insur ance Bureau. This includes the incorporation of an organizati on, development of a plan of operation and del ineat ion of rates, charges and exclus ions, and other regulatory requirements e stabl !she d in the Insurance Code. with premiums, of If or of to sign percent of contingency STATUS OF THE POOL Survey of 700+ Agencies Th e Michigan League for Human Services, State Office on Aging, United Community Services of Metropolitan Detroit, and United Way of Michigan, along with the assistance of state government and other voluntar y agencies, surveyed over 700 agencies regarding their claims and premium experience In August 1986. The collected data was used to obtain authorization for the formation of the poo l �-2- In 1986. In general, the data showed that the total of alI claims over the past five years was equal to about 25 percent of just the 1986 premium payout. Authority To Form The Pool and Range of Coverages The Insurance Commissioner authorized formation of a nonproflts 1 pool for General Liabi I ity, Directors' and Officers' Liabi llty, and excess/umbrella coverage. Pooling professional liability was denied since the data dld not break down professional categories. Property and unowned vehicle I lability coverages were not studied since the insurances were generally avai I able at the time . NCIE Formed Nonprofits 1 Coalition for Insurance Education (NCIE) was formed as a publ lc/private venture in 1987 to be an organizing and fund raising entity for the insurance pool named "Nonproflts' Limited Liabil lty Pool ." Principal organizers include Michigan League for Human Services, State Office on Aging, Un ited Community Services of Metropol !tan Detro it , and the United Way of Michigan. Forums Organized Four Informational forums were conducted in 1987 to d l ssem l nate information about the llabil ity Insurance crisis and sol felt membershi p for th e Nonprofits' Coalition for Insurance Education. Over 400 indi v iduals were represented at the forums.

The study and a business plan are expected to be completed within four to six weeks. Contingency Reserve and Capital Jzatlon Approximately $400,000 is needed to capital lze the contingency reserve and pay for Initial start-up costs. The C. S. Matt Should Foundation has tentatively agreed to examine a prospectus. It meet their requlrments they would offer a program related Investment of $150,000. Spec I a I Issues 1. Insurance companies, threatened by the formation of the Pool, threatened local United ways with a boycott of United Way campaigns if the pool was formed. As a result, Informational forums to kick off the program was set back nearly two months. It appears that the principal element of concern was that Chapter 65 Pools may have membership in the State guaranty association. This issue is expected to be resol ved through legislative ammendments to Chapter 65. No boycotts have been threatened since the legislative negotiations began. 2. Insurance pools authorized under Chapter 65 are the only pools in the United States that are covered by the State's guaranty association. Legislative proposals are not expected to change this. 3. Because of the membership In the guaranty association, the Governor ha~ asked his Insurance Task Force to recommend ways to make Chapter 65 pools "more secure." Proposed recommendations would increase regulatory oversight by the Insurance Bureau and add a capitalization requirement of $1 .5 mil I ion over three years. Unless the poo l is formed in the next few weeks, the capital th at wil I be required wit I rise to $1.8 mil I ion from the current $300,000. CAPITALIZATION NEEDS A total commitment of $400,000 is being sought to capitalize the contingency reserve for t he Nonproflts 1 Limited Li abil ity Pool and to pay for start-up costs. Commitments are being sought from a variety of sources Including private foundations, the State of Michigan, and corporate Investors. A prospectus wi I I be provided before final sol !citation to invest. �-4- GuIde II nes for Contingency Reserve The contingency reserve wll I be obtained through a prospectus. The prospectus Is a debt instrument cal led a "surplus certificate." The prospectus wII I be offered to raise the funds required for the deposit with the State Treasurer. The certificate may bear the maximum allowed simple Interest, as provided In Chapter 65, of seven percent C7%l per year. The return of the investment would not be initiated for at least five years. At that time, the Insurance Bureau must review and approve any dividend payments. Future Capital lzatlon Requirements Should the Governor's Task Force's recommendations to add cap i ta l izatlon requirements be adopted as leg i slation, the pool wll I need to raise an additional $500,000 for each of the next three years. The NCIE Board Is committed to Increasing its capital lzatlon up to at least the $1 . 5 mil I ion recommended by the Task Force, but It Is questionable whether the $300,000 contingency reserve and $500, 000 capital can be raised In the first year. Once the program is operational, capital lzatlon wll I come from premium Income and surpluses developed through management of the pool . Timetable . Legislation to change the rules for the formation of pools is expected to be Introduce d anytime. In order to avoid the increased capital izatlon requirements, cont ingency reserve funds must be deposited as soon as possible . Shoul d this occur, the pool would f ikely be "grandfathered in" under the current rules. ; � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Through related cost savings, improved energy efficiency will insure that more of the scarce resources available to nonprofit organizations are used to provide important community services. In some communities, the Energy Initiative will also assist low-income populations in improving the energy efficiency of their homes. The source of money is Michigan's share of the $2.1 billion Exxon restitution settlement which the Federal Government has passed on to the states. The State of Michigan has made a grant of $3 million to the Council of Michigan Foundations for distribution to participating community foundations for this project. Of this amount, the Council of Michigan Foundations, as fiscal agent, received $350,000 to fund eligible community energy projects in areas not serviced by participating community foundations. To receive the funds from the Council, each community foundation must raise a dollar-for-dollar match. The local match monies will be totally controlled by each community foundation and can be used to establish permanent endowment funds broadly restricted for energy conservation activities, or may be spent immediately on energy conservation programming. Nonprofit organizations receiving funds directly from th~ Council must also raise the require match. The deadline for matching State funds is June 30, 1989.

Consumers Power Company recently approved a $50, 000 grant for Energy Initiative matching funds to thirteen participating foundations within their service area. The Council will continue to explore joint fundraising opportunities where feasible. The Energy Initiativ e will conclude September 30, 1990. STATE REPORTING The program is being monitored by the Michigan Public Service Commission (PSC). All proposals for projects to be supported with State Energy Initiative funds must be submitted to the PSC for review. The PSC will determine whether or not the proposed project complies with Federal guidel ines before the project can actually be funded. Projects supported with Energy Initiative matching funds are not subject to the same restrictions and , therefore , do not have to be submitted to the State for review. In addition to submitting proposals for review, the Council is also required to submit quarterly program and financial reports to the Public Service Commission. An annual report is submitted to the Regulatory Subcommittees o f the Michigan Senate and House of Representatives as well. To further insure the program's compliance with Federal guidelines, the PSC makes an on-site monitoring visit to the Council each year. RESULTS - GRANTMAKING Community foundations have submitted ten Energy Initiative projects to the PSC for revie\v. To date, the State has not expressed any concerns regarding the eligibility of these pro jects. The proposed projects range from energy audits and technica l studies for schools, to comprehensive education and training programs for nonprofit organizat ions. l1ost of the community foundations have elected to establish Energy Initiative Advisory Committees to assist them with the implementa tion of these projects. Following is a list of local Energy Initiative projects submitted to the PSC for review: �Northeast Michigan Community Foundation Grant Applicant: Immanuel Lutheran School Amount: $3,000 Purpose: To conduct a complete energy audit of the school.

The program will include workshops and comprehensive energy audits for nonprofit agencies. CMF RESPONSIBILITY AREAS OF THE PARTICIPATING COMMUNITY FOUNDATION STATE NOT SERVED BY A The Council has established a five-member Advisory Committee to assist '1-ith the distribution of Energy Initiativ e funds in areas of the State not served by a participating community foundation. Advisory Committee members include: Richard M. Buss, America Bank Economic Development Officer, First of Kenneth A. Aho, Energy Conservation Services Supervisor, Detroit Edison Company Fred M. Gerow, Energy Manager, Grand Valley State College Howard D. Kalleward, Council of Michigan Foundations Board of Trustees Herbert S . Yamanishi, Field/Resource Consultant, Michigan League of Human Services �In November, 1987, a Request for Proposals (RFP) was mailed to over 1,500 nonprofit organizatio ns throughout the State. Response to the RFP was limited , so an Energy Initiative brochure was developed with the assistance of the Advisory Committee and Detroit Edison Company. These brochures were recently mailed to nonprofit organizatio ns throughout Michigan to increase the level of participati on in the program. Several organizatio ns have already expressed an i nterest in applying for Energy Initiative funds as a result of this mailing. In ·. addition, Jane Morgan, Program Associate for the Energy Initiative, has attended several meetings throughout the State to promote the program. She has attended the Statewide Community Action Agency meeting as well as several Michigan United Way Round Tabl e meetings. The meetings have provided an opportunity to explain the program in greater detail and respond directly to questions on the Energy Initiative . INVESTMENT OF ENERGY INITIATIVE FUNDS The Council of Michigan Foundations is required to invest State Energy Initiative funds in interest bearing accounts maintained with a bank or savings and loan association . The Council has selected Abbi t Management to manage the investment of Energy Initiative funds. As of March 31, 1988, the Council has disbursed $375,166 in Energy Initiative funds to participati ng community f oundations, leaving a balance of $2,785,731 . � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Kellogg Foundation of Battle Creek and $150,000 from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation of Flint to strengthen the work of Michigan community foundations. The grants will help involve youth in activities that encourage philanthropy and volunteerism, and provide technical assistance for community foundations to better serve their communities. Mott's Michigan Technical Assistance program for community foundations will address joint and individual needs. A program associate will be hired for the three-year effort to coordinate and deliver service. "Through the years, community foundations in Michigan have been a vital force in helping meet local needs by supporting projects in education, health, and a variety of other human welfare concerns," said John E. Marshall III, president of the Kresge Foundation and chai r man of the Council of Michigan Foundations. With cutbacks in federal and state social programs, most voluntary human service organizations are faced with more needs than they can adequately meet, according to Marshall. foundations," he said. "This puts even more pressure on community (-more- ) �News Release "Grants Will Strengthen •••• " May 26, 1988 Page -2 - As a result, such foundations must increase community awareness and fiscal support if they are to continue to grow and provide funds for their communi ties, according to Suzanne L. Feurt, a Mott Foundation officer. "Young people can help fill this void," said Peter R. Ellis, Ke l logg Foundation program director. "They represent a valuable local resource. It is important that they be exposed to volunteer and leadership opportunities and become educated about the rewards of giving." The grants will support a Challenge Grant Program administered by CMF. The program will encourage youth development through the creation of special youth fund projects. It also is expected to strengthen community foundation board leadership and increase grant making capacities. " The effort is unique. It will involve young people both in the raising of matching funds for the grant and in evaluating youth-oriented projects for recommendation to local community foundation boards," said Marshall. "It is hoped this involve ment of youth in the experience of philanthropy and volunteerism will enhance continued growth in these areas for the next generation of community leaders." Participating community foundations will receive assistance only after raising matching funds. The program will provide one dollar for every two dollars raised locally, up to a prescribed amount each foundation can receive. Each participating community foundation will have a youth fund advisory committee. or younger. Fifty percent of its committee membership must be 21 years of age It is expected that the youth will use their experiences on the committee to increase their community serv ice and also share information about community foundations with their peers.

CMF was established in 1973. It is a nonprofit association of Michigan private and community foundations and corporations making grants for charitable purposes. 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 . The Foundation is today among the largest private philanthropic organizations in the world. It assists programs in the United States, Latin America, the Caribbean, and southern African countries. Projects in opportunities for youth are concentrated mainly in Michigan . The Charles Stewart Mott Foundation is a private foundation with assets of more than $800 million and annual grants of about $30 million for programs fostering community self-improvement through education, citizen involvement, community leadership and development processes. -30- For further information contact: Dorothy A.

DC 20036·5168 (202) 466·6512 National Agenda for Community Foundations on-site Consulting Research Project 11 Small Communities - Great Community Foundations 11 The Charles Stewart Matt Foundation has awarded the Council on Foundation's On-Site Consulting Program $50,000 for 1988 to conduct a collaborative research project with the Council of Michigan Foundations. The project seeks to identify the factors affecting the establishment and growth of community foundations serving communities with less than 250,000 in population. Community foundations are now the most rapidly growing segment of the philanthropic community and this project wil l be valuable in expanding our knowledge of how to help them as they are formed outside of major metropolitan centers. The primary data collection will focus on Michigan , Indiana, and Ohio, three states with a large number of community foundations serving smaller communities. Eugene Struckhoff will act as Senior Consultant to the project, working in coordination with Dan Joslyn and Martin Lehfeldt of Lehfeldt Associates. The Council of Michigan Foundations will oversee the data collection process. Julie Wernick will be the National Agenda's liaison to the project. The Council hopes to expand the research to other regions in 1989. A major ,publication and a conference for representatives of community f6undations in smaller communities are planned for later 1989.

March 31, 1988 NOTE A--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Statement Presentation: The accompanying financial statements have be en prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. To ensure observance of restrictions placed on the use of available resources, the accounts and fi nancial activity are classified for accounting and reporting purposes into flli<d g roups. Funds restricted by outside sources are distinguished fro m unrestricted funds. Restricted funds may only be utilized in accordance with the purposes established by the source of such funds and are in contrast t o unrestricted funds, over which the Board of Trustees has full control as to use in pursuing any of the Council's purposes. Revenue r estricted by outside sources is recognized to the extent related expenses are incurred. The unexpended funds have been recorded as deferred revenue in the accompanying balance sheet. Prior to fiscal 1988, the Council recognized revenue of restricted funds when received. Generally accepted accounting principles require that revenue restricted by outside sources be accounted for as described in the preceding paragraph. The impact of restating fiscal 1987 for this change in the method of revenue recognition was to decrease fund balance and increase deferred revenue at March 31, 1987 by $68,367. A complete presentation of expenses by function is not practicable be cause of the manner in which expenditures are accumulated t hroughout the year. Investments: Short-term investments consist of certificates of deposit, commercial paper and money market funds that are carried at fair market value, which equals cost . Furniture and Equipment: Furniture and equipment are stated at estimated market value at date of receipt or at cost, if purchased. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method at rates designed to amortize the basis of the assets over their estimated useful lives. NOTE B--FUND PURPOSE General Operating Fund: To record the receipt of membership contributions, conference revenue and other transactions relating to the administrative and service activities of the Council. Survey and Directory Fund: To record revenues and expenses associated with the biennial publication of The Mi chigan Foundation Directory, which includes a survey of foundation funding, in cooperation with the Michigan League for Human Services. -5- �f NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--Cont inued COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS, INC . NOTE B--FUND PURPOSE--Continued Increasing Philanthropy Fund: To reco r d revenu es and expenses for a project aimed at increasing foundation and corporate giving for charitable purposes in the State of Michigan. Energy Initiative Administrative Fund: To record the cost of administering the State of Michigan Community Foundation Energy Initiative Grant. Revenues are restricted contributions from the member foundations of the Council. The Council coordinates the grant program for fourteen Council members and other organizations in areas of Michigan not served by participating community foundations. Improving Philanthropy Fund: To record revenues and expens es related to a project aimed at enhancing educational and volunteer opportunities for the nonprofit sector. Community Foundation Scholarship Fund: To record revenue and expenses related to a program which provides some monies to community foundation trustees and staff for attendance at state and national community foundation training workshops and conferences. Furniture and Equipment Fund: To reco rd the acquisition, depreciation and disposal of furniture and equipment. Energy Initiative Fund: To record the receipt and disbursement of g rant monies provided by the State of Michigan, Department of Commerce under the Community Foundation Energy Initiative grant agreement (see Note C). NOTE C--ENERGY INITIATIVE PROGRAM During fiscal 1988, the Council received a grant of $3,000,000 from the State of Michigan, Department of Commerce for the Community Foundation Energy Initiative. Under the terms of the grant, the Counc il and its affiliates will create a number of programs to improve the energy efficiency of the not-for- profit and low-income sectors. The Council acts as administrator of the grant, with all grant monies received from the State of Michigan to be distributed to its affiliates under conditions defined in the grant agreement. The Council must return to the Michigan Department of Commerce any prog r am funds which have not been expended by September 30, 1990. -6- �NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-- Continued COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS, INC.

Johnson Patricia B. Johnson Mariam C. Noland Progress Report The Strategy Team was appointed by then CMF Chairman, Ted L. Johnson, to explore ways the Michigan community foundations belonging to CMF could cooperate to encourage development and joint educational opportunities. Twenty-nine community foundations currently belong to CMF . CMF community foundation member's needs were surveyed, several meetings of community foundation representatives (trustees and staff) were held, and discussions were held with potential funders. The following two proposals have been developed: 1. W.K. Kellogg Foundation Michigan Community Foundation Youth Initiative Grant Proposal CMF, on behalf of Michigan community foundations , submitted to the W.K. Ke llogg Foundation, a $2,060,000 grant to encourage youth development in local communities throughout the state while strengthening community foundation leadership and grantmaking capacity on February 1, 1988. The challenge grant proposal was approved by the Executive Committee . A copy of the full proposal will be available at the Board of Trustees meeting . If approved, it is anticipated that the grant program would begin July 1 .

Charles Stewart Mott Foundation - Michigan Community Foundation Technical Assistance Initiative. The Strategy Team met February 2, 1988 wi th Suzanne L. Feurt, Program Officer, and Willard J. Hertz, Vice President, Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, to discuss the attached gran t proposal, $150,000 three-year grant ($50,000 each year~ provid~chnical assis tcance- t-oT5liti-chig·an. _ community foundation~ - The Strategy Team is in the process of finalizing the grant proposal for a March 1, 1988 submission. If approved, the grant would ideally commence July 1 . The proposal is supportive of the goals of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation Michigan Community Foundation Youth Initiative. Board approval is sought at this time for the concept , with approval on the final grant proposal being given by the Executive Committee once the complete proposal is ready for submission. The Strategy Team created these proposals under the following assumptions: - Existing CMF services to Michigan community foundations would continue under the core budget. - The CMF President would continue to be responsible in the early stage s f or working with communities considering t he formation of a community foundation. - Neither grant proposal is reflected in the 1988-89 CMF operating budget. Grants would be considered special projects-revolving funds for the three-year period. jmc:l394C �Charles Stewart Mott Foundation Michigan Community Foundation Initiative Objective The Council of Michigan Foundations, on behalf of Michigan community foundations, seeks a $150,000 grant from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation to provide technical assistance to 35 Michigan community foundations, plus others which may be created in the next three years. (Three year grant $50,000 each year.) Community foundations in contiguous states would be invited to participate in training workshops. See Attachment I - Fact Sheet for information about each Michigan community foundation. Problems - Community foundations in Michigan need to gain broad-base community awareness if they are to continue to grow and to have grantmaking capacity to help peopl e in the future. - Endowment resources in Michigan need to be developed for long- term benefit of citizens. -More than 1,150 community foundation volunteers h ave need for quality, cost-efficient training opportunities within reasonable travel distance, to assist them in increasing the long-term development of their community foundation. - Small staffs of community foundations need to coordinate efforts for cost-effective use of consultants and resources. Solution It is proposed that each participating community foundation identify at least five specific needs which if filled, would enhance the long- te r m growth and administration of the community foundation . It is anticipated that many community foundations have similar needs -- Bar Association, Certified Public Accountants, Financial Planners, etc.; newsletter copy; generic fund agreements; information about community foundations tailored to insur a nce industry and other professionals; educational opportunities; planned giving the answers for which can be shared, thereby saving time and resources. Other needs will be specific ... development plan, donor relations, and marketing strategies . It is envisioned that an agreement would be reached with each community foundation identifying their p ri ority n e eds and committing to f ulfill thos e within the three-year time period. �L - Hire Community Foundation Program Officer (title to be determined) to do the following things: Answer all joint needs ...• Work with attorneys, accountants, financial planners, insurance agents, etc. and their associations; ••. gather best materials nationally and write material not availab l e, etc. Respond to local needs •.•• Conduct training sessions, assis t in development efforts, share information, motivate vo l unteers. - Create three-state educational opportunities (Michigan, Indiana, Ohio) taking advantage of high concentration of community foundations. Program would cooperate with Counci l on Foundations' National Agenda, ideal ly using parts of the developed curriculum. Uniqueness would be geographic concentration of volunteers and professionals . (Two multi-day programs to be held.) - Scholarship opportunities to participate in national community foundation programs on shared participation. - Resource library available on l oan. Why Michigan? - 35 community foundations, 28 which can be considered active. L - 1,150 community foundation vo lunteers - W.K. Kellogg Foundation Community Foundation Youth Initiative may make $2 million available on a challenge basis to establish youth funds with the Kellogg funds. The matched funds (new donors and increases in existing gifts) may be designated as each Board of Trustees determines . (Decision by Kellogg Foundation expected early Spring, 1988.) - Organization with 15-year relationship wi th Michigan community foundations, the Council of Michigan Foundations is avai lable to expedite program in cost-efficient manner and has track record with community foundations. Benefits to Charles Stewart Mott Foundation - Extend commitment to community foundation ideal to grassroots level. - Show how other grantmakers for relative l y small amount of money can provide technical assistance which will l everage dollars and community interest. I__, - Take a risk on a localized delivery system of technical assistance . Provide the information where it is needed to trustees and staff. Widen the information/enthusiasm base. �Budget Note: Personnel and associated expenses assumes Mott Michigan Community Foundation Technical Assistance Initiative and Kellogg Michigan Community Foundation Youth Initiative share same Director.

He referred to the Notes on page 2 which details the summary of Revolving Funds and notes that the Improving Philanthropy Fund will be moved from a Special Project Fund to a Revolving Fund as it is a two-year project. Mr. Rappleye stated that the statement reflects that CMF is well within budget with no anticipated problems. He lighlighted the car purchase and office renovation costs.

Hussey Proposed 7-Year Conference Plan In February, 1986 the Board of Trustees approved a 5-year conference plan. I am recommending that CMF change the location of the 1990 Annual Conference from Kalamazoo . The Kalamazoo Hilton has filed bankruptcy and is in the process of being sold. The finalization of the sale could take months or years and it would not be until after that time that rennovation would begin. At this point we have no guarantee that the hotel will be suitable for our conference in 1990 and it is my recommendation that we cancel our present contract with the Kalamazoo Hilton for November, 1990 and consider delaying the conference in Kalamazoo until 1995.

CMF began in 1973 and was incorporated in 1975. Other constituencies are served as they relate to CMF's purposes and include all other Michigan foundations and corporate grantmakers, national government representatives, the media, grantees, the national and regional grantmaking community, and the general public. CMF is affiliated with the Council on Foundations and 30 other regional associations throughout the country.

Purposes - To provide the means for regular exchange of ideas, experiences, information and expertise among Michigan grantmakers. - To represent Michigan grantmakers' interests and concerns with the officials oflocal, state and national government. - To increase private and community foundation and corporate grantmaking resources in the State of Michigan. - To increase the efficiency and effectiveness of Michigan's philanthropic network. -To inform the public of the important and irreplaceable contributions of Michigan grantmaking institutions to the state and to the larger society. �A Message toCMF Members The end of a decade traditionally is a time for reflection on past accomplishments as well as an opportunity to identify the challenges of the future. While the Council of Michigan Foundations has been fortunate to experience the former, we also anticipate there will be no shortage of the latter as we enter the 1990s. Midway through the 1980sin 1984 to be exact-CMF's Board of Trustees developed a five-year plan to guide the organization through the remainder of the decade. Under the leadership of Gilbert Hudson, president of the Hudson-Webber Foundation, 11 goals were identified as well as strategies to meet them. Taken together, they reflect two major reasons for CMF's 16 years of operation: first, to provide quality services to permit Michigan's grantmakers to maximize their resources and expertise to address the issues and social needs of our state, society and world; and second, to establish a nurturing environment for further growth of philanthropy in the state. One measure of_our success is in hard numbers-our membership grew nearly 25 percent during this period to an all-time high of250. We believe we have been responsible, at least in part, for the growth in the number of private foundations in Michigan, up 10 percent to over 900. Gifts to community foundations have increased 20 percent. Although there is no accurate measure of the number of new corporate giving programs, if the number of inquiries we receive is any indication, we believe we have contributed to progress here as well. However, we know we cannot take all the credit-the economy, certain tax legislation, and sheer needplayed the major roles. Our past successes are the result of the hard work and dedication of our members, and their trustees and employees. For it is these volunteers who serve on CMF 's Board, act as our advisors and participate on our committees. Although their names are found at the end of this annual report, 0 N E the lists cannot reflect the efforts of their predecessors nor the commitment that will be required of those who serve in the future. While we believe that the future looks encouraging for Michigan philanthropy, there will be no shortage of challenges. In the coming months we will begin a major initiative to encourage corporate giving as well as to increase the number of private foundation donors. We also will be working with Michigan's community foundations to help them utilize the new income tax credit legislation. Our resources will continue to be available to existing foundations. CMF is committed to strengthening the practice of philanthropy through establishing additional training and educational opportunities in the not-for-profit sector. Philanthropy and foundations as we know them today are a product of the early 20th Century. As we enter the final years of that same century, we believe we have a special opportunity to assist our members and the field as a whole to make the transition into the 1990s and beyond . John E. Marshall, III Chairman Dorothy A. Johnson President �- - -------- --- - -- ---- - - - - - - - - - -- Programs - - - - - - - During its sixteenth year the Council of Michigan Foundations added a number of major initiatives to its existing programs to benefit its members and strengthen philanthropy in Michigan. These new programs are providing technical assistance for both emerging and mature community foundations , establishing new community foundations, developing youth leadership opportunities, and managing a three-state research project sponsored by the Council on Foundations . Major strides have also been made in ongoing projects including CMF's legislative initiatives, conferences and workshops that have been the hallmark of the Council since its earliest years. istee and Ingham Counties-create community foundations. A seventh, the Oceana County Community Foundation, was set up as a fund of the Muskegon County Community Foundation. Activities designed to encourage the formation of private foundations, as well as corporate foundations and giving programs, were also implemented. CMF worked closely with the Michigan State Chamber of Commerce , local chambers of commerce, Michigan corporations, selected business and professional organizations, and professional publications toward this end. Increasing Philanthropy in Michigan A major grant from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation funded a new CMF project to provide technical assistance and consulting services to Michigan community foundations. Activities provided under the three-year project include site visits, participation in trustee-level planning retreats, assisting newly established community foundations , providing presentations to communities investigating the community foundation concept, special training programs, and development and distribution of new publications. As part of this initiative, CMF entered into a contract with the Council on Foundations, Inc. to research and identify those factors affecting the creation and development of community foundations in Michigan, Indiana and Ohio cities of 250,000 or fewer residents. The Council on Foundations will replicate the model for national use. Final results of the research will be presented and published in 1989 and 1990. Through a $2 million grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the Council of Michigan Foundations launched a three-year program on behalf of Michigan community foundations to increase their nuJ]lber, develop leadership and volunteer opportunities for youth within a community foundation context, and develop ways for large private foundations to assist community foundations . In October, three community foundations (Battle Creek, Greater Flint, and Southeastern Michigan) received $100,000 individual challenges to initiate the raising of matching two-for-one funds as part of the Michigan Foundation Youth Project. Each recipient is developing a youth advisory committee, with half the members age 21 or younger. This program is closely linked to a second project funded by the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation to provide technical assistance services to Michigan community foundations (see the following section on Membership Services). Two full-time and one part-time positions were added to the CMF staff to handle the two projects. CMF assisted four cities and two counties-Marquette, Cadillac, Ludington, Eaton Rapids, and Man- T w 0 M embership Services and Technical Assistance �1988-89 HIGHLIGHTS he W;K. Kellogg and Charles Stewart Mott Foundations granted CMF more than $2 million to establish new programs to strengthen community foundations and develop new youth leadership initiatives. Annual Council of Michigan Foundations Conference held November 2 to 4 in Detroit. ovemor James Blanchard signed the Michigan Community Foundation Tax Credit into law in late 1988. The new legislation provides state income tax credits to individuals and businesses making contributions to certified Michigan community foundations. MF published four new major publications or updates, including the sixth edition ofThe Michigan Foundation J)irectory and two videotapes, "Grantmakingfor Results" and "The View from the Other Side." sojMarch31, 1989, CMF membership reached 242; three months later it rose to 250. MF instituted its .first executive-in-residence program whereby members can volunteer staffassistance to enhance and expand CMF programs. �WILLIAM W. Programs ALLEN FUND or over 15 years William W. Allen, a founding CMF trustee and.first chairman of the Council's Government Relations Committee, tirelessly fought for the right oflegitimate grantmaking without undo restrictions throughout Michigan and the nation. His interest in philanthropy spanned more than four decades. He served as vice president and secretary of the Elsa U. Pardee Foundation, and with the dream of helping to alleviate malnutrition in the United Statest he created the Allen Foundation in 1975. Mr. Allen died on November 12, 1987. Later that year the CM'F Board of'l'tustees established the William W. Allen Fund, a permanent endowment fund designed to support Michigan grantmakers' interests and concerns with state and federal governments. CMF members ha~ contributed nearly $70,000 to the Allen Fund. It is CMF's hope that the William W. Allen Fund's legislative and educational advocacy will match Mr. Allen's personal commitment and effectiveness. William W. A,llen ���In July, Battle Creek foundations hosted over 55 colleagues from other Michigan grantmaking organizations during a Grantmaker Visitation Program. This day-long program provided staff and trustees a first-hand view of how various foundations handle grantmaking, administrative and financial matters. The state's two regional grantmakers ' groups-the Detroit Area Grantmakers and the Kent County Donors Forum-met periodically throughout the year to discuss topics of concern in their respective geographic areas. The Council of Michigan Foundations continued to provide the staff support and serve as the fiscal agent for the State of Michigan Community Foundation Energy Initiative, a $3 million program. Conferences and Workshops "Tomorrow's Needs- Today's Opportunities'' defined the broad parameters of the Council of Michigan Foundations' 16th Annual Conference in Detroit from November 2 to 4. Michigan grantmakers discussed a range of issues including youth , crime, health, educational reform, the environment and the economy as well as philanthropic management and grantmaking concerns. More than 600 participants heard Roger B. Smith, chairman and chief executive officer of General Motors Corporation, deliver the keynote address with a message that communication and collaboration contribute to more effective grantmaking. Other featured speakers included Eugene M. Lang, president of the I Have A Dream Foundation, and James Gustave Speth of the World Resources Institute. The conference's 24 working sessions were punctuated by several dinners and receptions. Other special events included tours of Detroit's historical museums, distinctive architectural structures, and recent riverfront developments. Robert B. Miller, Sr., chairman of The Miller Foundation of Battle Creek, served as the honorary chairman, while Donald A. Lindow, vice president of the National Bank of Detroit, was the program chairman. Amy Turner, executive director of the Detroit Neurosurgical Foundation, and William V. Weatherston, vice president-industry of The Stroh Brewery Company, welcomed the delegates as co-chairs of an active host committee. During the year CMF cosponsored a new series of workshops and seminars, including a conference attended by over 60 participants on AIDS and Michigan foundations. The co-sponsor was the Michigan Department of Public Health. Fifteen University of Michigan graduate journalism fellows attended a March seminar on the news media's coverage of philanthropy. Held at the Miller House in Battle Creek, it was sponsored by CMF, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation and The Miller Foundation. CMF 's two-day March workshop on community foundations brought staff and trustees together in Lansing to discuss investment and management issues unique to community foundations. Presenters and participants explored grantmaking, asset development and the Michigan Community Foundation Tax Credit. A corporate giving workshop was held in May. Sponsored by the Council , the Greater Detroit Chamber of Commerce and the Michigan State Chamber of Commerce, 80 participants met in Detroit to discuss grantmaking, management and legislative issues related to corporate philanthropy. Each year, CMF's Board of Trustees holds its annual meeting in a different part of the state, and also provides an opportunity for grantmakers in the region to meet prior to s E v E N that meeting . Over 100 staff and trustees from Northern Michigan foundations and corporate giving programs met in Midland. The hosts for the program were Herbert and Barbara Dow of the Herbert H. and Barbara C. Dow Foundation . Russell G. Mawby, chairman of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, spoke on the challenges facing Michigan philanthropy. Legislative and Industry Liaison Most of Michigan's 40 community foundations are the beneficiaries of new legislation initiated by the Council of Michigan Foundations that permits individual and business state tax credits for gifts to Michigan community foundations . Signed into law the final days of 1988 by Governor James J . Blanchard, the Michigan Community Foundation Tax Credit permits a maximum credit of 50 percent of the amount donated up to $100 for individuals , $200 for couples, or $5,000 for businesses. It is in effect until1991, and is expected to generate $3 million in private gifts to philanthropy and at least $6 million for the community foundations and philanthropy. CMF worked two years on the legislation and was instrumental in its passage. The concept of a tax credit for community foundations was developed by John E. Hopkins, executive director of the Kalamazoo Foundation. Both Russell G. Mawby, chairman of CMF's Increasing Philanthropy Committee, and Mariam C . Noland, a CMF trustee and head of a community foundation , testified in favor of the bill during hearings in the Michigan legislature. �CMF worked with nonprofits throughout the state to assist with the implementation of recent technical revisions to previous legislation to limit the liability of directors and trustees serving on 501 (c)(3) boards. The Developing Good Will Project, now in its fourteenth year, continued educating members of Michigan's state legislature and Congressional representatives about the work and contributions of philanthropy. Personal meetings were held between CMF members and legislators in most of the state 's 18 Congressional districts. CMF staff members cooperated with other state-level, as well as national, organizations working on behalf of philanthropy and the not-forprofit sector. These included the Council on Foundations, Regional Association ofGrantmakers , Foundation Center, National Committee on Responsive Philanthropy, Independent Sector, United Way of Michigan, Michigan League for Human Services, Metro Detroit GIVES, Accounting Aid Society of Detroit, and state and local chambers of commerce. Public Information and Publications In addition to publishing several new books on grantmaking and Michigan grantmakers, CMF continued to provide readily accessible information on Michigan foundations and philanthropic issues to the public and the press. During 1988-89, four major publications or updates of existing material were released. The sixth edition of The Michigan Foundation Directory included a special section documenting the grantmaking of Michigan corporate foundations and corporate giving programs. The first edition of The Michigan Nonprofit Resource Directory, published in cooperation with the Accounting Aid Society of Detroit, was released in June , and the third and fourth updates of Establishing a Charitable Foundation in Michigan were also published. Over 250 copies of The Michigan Matching Gifts Program Manual were sold. CMF also released its first two videotapes , "Grantmaking for Results," and "The View from the Other Side." The first is a "how-to" tape for grantmakers, while the second is a candid assessment of the relationship between grantee and grantor. Publications produced on CMF activities included an annual report, special memos to members, and four editions- of the tabloid, "The Michigan Scene ." Staff responded to an average of four requests per week from the media, as well as regularly meeting with members of editorial boards. Articles on Michigan philanthropy appeared in seven major Michigan newspapers, as well as in The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and USA Today. CMF makes available free or for purchase directories, books, surveys, brochures, and occasional papers on Michigan foundations, foundation management and grantmaking, and nonprofit management. A complete list may be obtained by contacting the Council's office in Grand Haven. E G H T Other Resources CMF materials, as well as those produced by other organizations, are available at many Foundation Center Regional Collections scattered throughout Michigan. They generally provide a core collection of Foundation Center publications, as well as supplemental materials.
