The present Conference, like those before it, offers foundation and corporate trustees, officers, and staff the opportunity to come together, share knowledge and viewpoints, and then return home with renewed vision, heightened vigor, and stronger ties to fellow grantmakers .

Box 599 Grand Haven, MI 49417 Dear Dottie: Congratulations on another good annual meeting, HOWEVER, please do not have another one at the Westin, and I am sure I speak for countless other participants. Regarding our investments, several years ago the trustees of a hospital in Washington, D. C. were raked over the coals because they delegated the responsibility. I believe John Edie, COF, could tell you the circumstances. I think it is essential that the truste s are involved. Incidentally we have our cash reserve managed by NBD and I am enclosing a copy of their 10-31-88 report, which shows we are getting a yield of 8.59% on demand obligations, which I think is better than CMF is doing on C.D. 's. ~ I had to leave before I could hear the talk by Mr. Lang: Would it be possible to get a copy of his speech or a tape of it? I particularly want to pass it on to Robert Barksdale who is real interested in this type of endeavor. Sincerely yours, BESSER FOUNDATION C. F.

Plans for Year II will be discussed by the Increasing Philanthropy Committee at the November 6, 1987 meeting. RELATED ACTIVITIES Independent Sector Campaign - AS reported at an earlier board meeting, IS is conducting a national campaign, "Daring Goals for a Caring Society," .t o double giving and volunteering in the next five years. Several city, regional and state groups have been organized to accomplish this goal. In Detroit, a Metro-Detroit Gives Campaign is being chaired by Alfred H. Taylor, Jr., President, The Kresge Foundation and Louis A. Weil III, President, The Detroit News. Several CMF Trustees and Members are participating on the committee. Activities will include sponsoring a survey of giving and volunteering this fall and numerous promotional efforts during the next two years. CMF is working with other geographic areas in the state via local community foundations who want to participate in the IS Program. Ideally, the committee will be organized and surveys conducted in the Spring of 1988, as researchers assure us that the data collected for all regions tabulated on a statewide basis would be creditable . Council on Foundations Efforts - COF has a three-prong program to increase the number of community foundations, corporate giving programs and private foundations. The committee to assist in the private foundation program inc ludes Michigan representatives Ranny Riecker, Thomas B. Murphy and Dorothy A. Johnson. The committee will meet for the first time in December. RGM!jlf 435B � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Johnson William S. White Improving Philanthropy Project Program Associate Hired Linda Patterson has been engaged to coordinate the Project to Improve Philanthropy which the Board of Trustees approved in June. She began her work September 1 and has already developed position papers on each issue. Linda comes to the Council with twenty years experience in community involvement and leadership roles with such diverse organizations as the Board of Trustees of Mary Free Bed Hospital and Rehabilitation Center, The Board of Directors of the East Grand Rapids Schools Foundation, and The Junior League of Grand Rapids, Michigan, Inc. Advisory Committee Meeting The Advisory Committee of the Project to Improve Philanthropy met on Wednesday, October 28, 1987 at the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. The Committee discussed the publication of a Technical Assistance Directory, the initiation of a Governor's Award for Outstanding Philanthropic Contribution in Michigan, and the creation of an Academic Center for Vo lunteerism and Philanthropy within the State of Michigan. The following is a summary of the committee deliberations. 1 . Technical Assistance Directory Individual committee members have been assisting the Accounting Aid Society of Detroit in its efforts to publish a "Te chnical Assistance Provider Directory" listing the various individuals and associations within the State that provide training and services to nonprofit organizations . Providers have been surveyed, the information has been computerized, and an effective 48-page draft manual has been assembled . The manual is indexed to show the name of the provider, the type of service provided, and the location of the provider within the state. Both the quality and the quantity of the data merits publication, but a funding source has not yet been able to be identified--which causes concern that the �data is at risk of becoming obsolete. The committee recommends the following motion be approved by the Board of Trustees . RESOLVED: Council of Michigan Foundations co-sponsor the Technical Assistance Directory with the Accounting Aid Society, and that the Council grant the project up to $10,000, and in addition that the Council loan the project up to $10,000, for the publication of the directory. The funds shall be allocated from the Improving Philanthropy Project budget. 2. The Governor's Award The committee approved proceeding with the development of a proposal for a Governor's Award for Outstanding Volunteer and Philanthropic Contributions in the State of Michigan. This award will be structured similar ly to the President ' s Award, and its administration will be facilitated by the Council of Michigan Foundations in cooperation with other nonprofit organizations in the state. Both individuals and organizations will be eligible to receive the award. A sub-committee was appointed to assist Mrs. Patterson with the details of the proposal and will report back to the committee in February, 1988. Sub-committee members are Peter R. Ellis, Kay Hunt and Willard J. Hertz. 3 . The Academic Center The committee discus s ed the current national situation relating to academic programs and nonprofit sector activities. The committee authorized a survey of state educational institutions (universities, colleges, junior colleges, associations, etc.) to determine: a. What courses and community service experiences are offered to undergraduate students concerning nonprofit sector organizations and activities. b. What courses, degree programs, and training experiences are offered to graduate and continuing education students concerning nonprofit sector organizations and activities. c. What research projects and faculty interests pertaining to nonprofit sector organizations and activities exist on campus. Upon compilation of this inventory, the committee will consider what subsequent action might be appropriate for a state academic project and may publish the information for students, interested nonprofits and educational institutions. The committee may also consider the merit of a survey to determine consumer interest in nonprofit educational programs. jmc:lSI � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Dingell Committee: Finance Date Completed: 10-26-87 SUMMARY OF SENATE BILLS 475 and 476 as introduced 10-6-87: Senate Bill 475 The bill would amend the Income Tax Act to allow a taxpayer to claim a credit against income tax liability equal to 50% of the amount the taxpayer contributes during the tax year to a "coliiDuni ty foundation".

For a resident estate or trust, a credit could not exceed 10% of tax liability for the year (before claiming any credits allowed under the Act) or $5,000, whichever was less. The credit allowed by the bill could not exceed the tax liability of the taxpayer. The bill would define a "community foundation" meets both of the following requirements: as an organization that Qualifies for an exemption from Federal income taxation as a corporation or community chest that is organized and operated exclusively for religious, charitable, scientific, literary, testing for public safety, or educational purposes , or for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals, or to foster national or international amateur sports competition.

Box 599 Grand Haven, MI 49417 RE: SENATE BI LL 19 Dear ."\s. Johnson: It's been some time since we discussed SB 19, the legislation introduced to protect directo rs of non- profit corporations from personal liabili t y for their volunteer efforts . I am happy to repo rt that a new ve r sion of this bi ll was repo rted out of the House J ud ic i ary Commi ttee last week and approved by the full House today . I t now goes ove r to the Senate for concurrence in our amendments but I anticipate that i t will be quickly approved and sent to the Governor for signature next week . The legislation would apply to any SOl(c) (3 ) corporation or any co r poration that could qualify for 501 (c) (3) status. It permits t hose corporations to amend their articles of incorporat ion to provide protection to t.'leir volunt eer directors from any liability for acts taken as a director . This protection would completely prevent any l i tigation against t he di r ector , thus limiting defense expenses as '.vell. The legislation would requi re t hat any corporation taking this ;;~ction would accept responsibility for the acts of rJirectors. I do not see this as a ma jor concession since , under usual corpo rate agency law principles, a corporation is liaJ le for t he acts of its d irectors an')",vay. �I~ MICHIGAN HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES LANSING. ~ICHIGA/f 48909 Republican Research Section 517/373-7289 DATE: October 16, 1987 TO: House Republican Caucus FROf!l: f!lanny Lentine / RE: SB 19; Nonprofit Directors' Liability An agreement has been reached on SB 19, which wi Tl protect the persona 1 assets of volunteer directors of nonprofit corporations. The agreement is a co-m promise between the approac hes advanced by Reps. Nye and Bandstra and Rep. Perry Bu 11 ard. The agreement is acceptab 1e to Sen . Posthumus (the sponsor of SB 19) and the various interest groups that have been instrumental in rooving the legislation. It is possible that the bill will receive consideration by the House Judiciary Committee as early as Tuesday, October 20. The compromise distinguishes between nonprofit corporations generally and nonprofit corporations that have been granted (or are eligible for) tax exempt status pursuant to Internal Revenue Code 50l(c)(3). Volunteer directors of 501{c){3) nonprofit corporations are shielded from lawsuits based upon a breach of the director's duty, only if the nonprofit corporation amends its articles of incorporation to provide that the nonprofit corporation assumes all liability to any person (other than the nonprofit corporation itself, its shareholders or its members) for all acts and omissions of a volunteer director . Consequently, an action based upon a volunteer director's breach of duty shall instead be brought against the nonprofit corporation itself and the corporation shall be liable for any judgment .entered upon such claim. Volunteer directors of all other nonprof i t corporations are shielded from lawsuits brought by the non profit corporat ion, its shareholders or its mefiloers (no protection from third party suits ) and based upon a breach of the director 's fiduciary duty, only if the nonprofit corporation amends its articles of incorporation to so provide. Six exceptions apply to this provision. The compromise accomplishes the majo r objectives sought when the bill was introduced: (1) it p rotects the persona l assets of volunteer directors of nonprofit corporatio ns; (2) it will alleviate lav1suit anxiety experienced by people who serve as volunteer directors or who are considering serving in such capacity; (3) it will eliminate some of th e transactions costs experienced by insurance companies in defending suits against volunteer directors and may, �Ms. Dorothy Johnson Page Two (2) October 22, 1987 I think the legislation thus provides a large net gain to non-profits which should go far toward easing director concern. As you know, the Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee had significant d ifficulties getting this legislation moving, given the resistance of the Chair of the Committee and his caucus. I certainly appreciate the continuing pressure which your members and other non-profits across the state applied and am sure it was a significant r.e ason for the success we've lately enjoyed. I hope that you will share this letter as weil as the encl osed bill and bill summary with your members. Thanks again for all of your help. Very truly yours, tc~~~~~ State Representati ve 93rd District RAB/arm Enclosures (2) �hopefully, have a positive impact on directors' insurance rates; and (4) the nonprofit corporations' assets remain subject to claims made by persons injured by the acts or omissions of volunteer directors. 87cdi rectors � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Johnson Budget Resolutions Office Renovation - $10,000 At the June 5, 1987 Board of Trustees meeting an office renovation project was approved, not to exceed $10,000 . (See Board minutes for details.) It is proposed that the following resolution be approved: RESOLVED, the CMF 1987-88 operating budget be revised to include an approved $10,000 office renovation expenditure. II. Car Purchase - $19,400 At the February 27, 1987 Board of Trustees meeting the President was directed to replace the CMF leased car (3 years old; 91,600 miles). It is to CMF's advantage to purchase a car outright rather than enter into another lease arrangement. All personal usage on the Buick Park Avenue 1987 vehicle will be recorded on the President's W-2 form. The detail of this transaction was reviewed and approved by the Audit Committee, Chairman and Treasurer. It i s proposed that the following resolution be approved: RESOLVED, the CMF 1987-88 operating budget be revised to include a car purchase in the amount of $19,400. Revenue for both projects would come from General Operating Fund - $104 ,083 . 84 as of 3/31/87 .

May 22, 1987 Ms. Dorothy A. Johnson President Council of Michigan Foundations Sui te 3 One South Harbor Avenue P.O. Box 599 Grand Hav en, MI 49417 Dear Ms . Johnson: You have asked for our opinion on the federal tax treatment of expenditures by the Counci l o f Michigan Foundat ions ("CMF '') in connection wi th a proposed effort to persuade the Michigan Legislature to create a state income tax credit for contributions to community foundations. CMF is exempt from federal income tax under s ection 5 01( c )(3) and is a £ublic c harity described in sections 509(a0(1) and 170( b ) (1) . CMF has e lected to have its legislative activities gov erned by the prov isions of sections 501(h) and 4911. It has a substantial number of community foundations as members, but it i s itself not a community foundation. The e f fort you have in mind is outlined in your letter to us of April 27, 1987. It would inc l ude hiring a professional lobbyist, prepa r ation of materials concerning the proposed credit, con t acts with members o f the Legislature and with oth er c harities, and communications with CMF's own members. 1 All statutory r efer e nces are to the Interna l Revenue Code of 1986, un less otherwise stated. �(APLIN & DRYSDALE CHARTERED - 2 - Under section 50l(h), CMF is permitted to expend up to 20% of its total budget (up t o $1,000,000) for activities that are treated as "attempts to influence legi slation." Expenditures for attempts to influence the opinions of the general public (so-called "grassroots" efforts), as contrasted with contacts with the legislators, relevant executive branch officials, and thei r staffs, are subject to a sublimit of a quarter of the overall limit. Special rules apply to membership organizations, l ike CMF. Communications with members that are strictly informative, and do not encourage members either to contact legislators or the general, non-member public, do not count against the limits at all. Communications that urge members to contact legislators or their staffs count only against the overall total. Onl y those communications with members that urge the members to seek to persuade others in the general public to support (or oppose) legislation count as "grassroots" lobbying, charged against the lower limit . In addition, certain activities that are, broadly, legis lative in character are permitted, without regard to the limitations. The exemption that is most relevant here is the so- called "self-defense" rule . This rule exempts from the limitations all "direct" lobbying that an organization undertakes "with respect to a possible decision of [a legislature] which might affect the existence of the organization, its powers and duties, tax-exempt status, or the deduction of contributions to the organization" . Sec . 49ll(d)(2)(C) . "Grassroots" activity on such measures stil l counts against the lower limit. The exemption applies only to "direct" activity, i.e., communications with legislators, executive branch officials, and their staffs . However, because communications with members urging them to engage in "direct" lobbying count as "direct" lobbying by the organization, such membership communications are also exempt from the limits . In our opinion, the effort proposed by CMF falls within the "self-defense" rule, i.e., the proposed tax credit2 measure at issue qualifies as "a possible decision of [the Michigan Legislature ] which might affect the tax exempt status, or the deduction of contributions" to CMF, and hence, "direct" lobbying 2 Clearly, a ''credit" for gifts to an organization is an aspect of the tax status of the organization and of the treatment of contributions to it, even though not technically a "deduction." There is no evidence that Congress intended to treat credits and deductions differently for purposes of the "self-defense" exemption. �(APLIN & DRYSDALE CHARTERED - 3 - in connection with that effort is not "an attempt to influence legislation" within the meaning of the statute. The "self-defense" exception applies to the activity of CMF undertaken to promote a state income tax credit for contributions to certain tax-exempt members of CMF, but not to CMF itself. The initial version of the 1976 legislation said explicitly that the "self-defense" exception covered the tax-exempt status and contribution deductibility, not only of an organization itself, but of its members, if those members were themselves section 501(c)(3) organizations. H.R. 13500, 94th Cong., 2d Sess. § 2. Although this explicit language was omitted from the bill as passed, both Treasury and Joint Committee staff people stated at the time that the "self-defense" exception would still apply to "memberdefense." A rule to that effect was included in the proposed regulations published in November 1986. Prop. Regs. § 56.49113(d)(3). Although the proposed regulations have no legal force as such, until issued in final form, there has been no controversy about that provision~ and there is every reason to expect it to be included in the final regulations, when they are eventually published. We understand that this interpretation of the scope of the "self - defense" provision is shared by such organizations as the Council on Foundations, Independent Sector, and United Way of America, which routinely lobby on tax matters of concern to their exempt members. In summary: 1. Direct approaches to legislators, their staffs, and executive branch officials by CMF directors, staff or outside consultants or lobbyists would not be lobbying at all as defined in the statute, and would not count against the CMF ceiling on "direct" lobbying. 2. Contacts with CMF members would count against the "grassroots" ceiling only to the extent that they were urged to communicate about the proposed credit with grantees or others outside their own organizations . (The self-defense exception means that CMF communications with members that urge the members to contact legislators directly do not count as lobbying.) 3. Contacts with non-members would count as grassroots lobbying. You also asked about the effect of the project on the treatment, under section 4945, of grants to CMF from private foundations. There is a strong argument that grants from private foundatio ns to CMF earmarked for the state tax credit project �CaPLIN & DRYSDALE CHARTERED - 4 - would not be taxable expenditures under section 4945 by the grantors since the bulk of the activity is not, for tax purposes, treated as lobbying by CMF, so long as the individual foundation's grant does not exceed the amount of the tax credit project budget allocated for activities other than grassroots lobbying. A simpler approach, however, would be for foundation grantors to rely on the so-called Mcintosh ruling, IRS Priv. Ltr . Rul . 78 - 10-041 (Dec . 8, 1977), under which general support grants to CMF from private foundations can be used for CMF's lobbying without making the payments taxable expenditures by the grantor private foundations. As to CMF's limits, we understand that CMF has a total annual budget of about $400,000, all of it for activities that qualify as "exempt purpose expenditures . " That being the case, CMF's overall lobbying limit is $80,000 and its grassroots limit is $20,000 . (To the extent the tax credit project is financed by specially raised funds, so that it is additive to the projected budget, it increases the base. Sec . 491l(e)(l)(B)(ii). For example, if CMF raises the $65,000 projected budget for the credit project, that would increase the ceilings by $13,000 and $3250, for overall and grassroots, respectively . In that case, the applicable limits would be $93 , 000 for overall lobbying and $23,250 for grassroots. If you have any questions about this matter, please let me know. Walter B.

' Hooker, Chairman Willard J. Hertz John E . Hopkins Dorothy A. Johnson Ranny Riecker Robert D. Sparks Community Foundation State Tax Credit Proposal At the request of the Board of Trustees, following the February 26, 1987 board meeting, a sub-committee met to review the issues and strategy surrounding the implementation of the proposed community foundation state tax credit and to formulate a recommendation for the Board on how, if at all, to proceed with the strategy. The Sub-Committee was composed of individuals representing the Government Relations Committee and the community foundation membership. Historical Background In the spring of 1986, Jack Hopkins, Associate Director of the Kalamazoo Foundation, proposed that the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) investigate the feasibility of a tax credit for individual and corporate contributions to a community foundation in the State, similar to that currently in place for educational institutions, libraries and public broadcasting stations. The 27 CMF community foundation members were surveyed as to their interest and there was unanimous and enthusiastic agreement to proceed with the investigation .. The Government Relations Committee, then chaired by James M. Richmond, Vice President, W.K. Kellogg Foundation and CMF Trustee, prepared five drafts of the case statement. The statement was presented to the Board of Trustees at the June 6, 1986 meeting and adopted. The Board received a progress report at the November 6, 1986 meeting, along with a further draft of the statement. Meetings were held with the Governor's staff who expressed interest in the idea. Public Sector Consultants, Inc. provided counsel on the statement a nd were instrumental in seeing that the idea was incorporated in the Governor's State of the State Address delivered February 4, 1987 . "The State Treasurer will evaluate the feasibili ty of a state income tax credit for those who donate to community foundations. If this tax credit is det ermi ned to be fiscally prudent, it could encourage individuals who wish, through voluntary efforts, to improve the quality of life in their own commuf\itie s." �At the February 13, 1987 Board of Trustees meeting, questions were raised as to the strategy to be used to seek passage of the legislation, the opinions of other Michigan public charities and whether or not CMF or its members would be effected by the IRS lobbying regulations. Information In preparation of the Sub-Committee's deliberations, Public Sector Consultants,, Inc. was engaged to review the case statement (Att. 6a) and to prepar~ a strategy paper (Att. 6b). Public Sector Consult a nts, Inc. was compensated on an hourly basis for their services. Mrs. Johnson informed them that a retainer was not appropriate for CMF, as was discussed at the February board meeting. Any work done by a consultant for the project will be done on a contractual basis. Recommendations The Sub-Committee recommends the following Board action: l. The CMF Board of Trust ees reaffirms the board policy to seek a tax credit for contributions to community foundations. 2. CMF seek a leg a l opinion on the IRS lobbying regulation's effect on CMF, a public charity and its private foundation members who may want to make a grant to assist the effort . Result: Legal opinion, prepared by Caplin & Drysdale, Walter Slocombe (Att. 6c}. In summary, CMF could proceed with the recommended strategy and seek grants from all Members, including private foundations under the described terms without any problem for CMF or Members. The legal opinion would be provided with all proposal requ es ts . 3. Associa tion with Public Sector Consultants, Inc. and whatever other consultants needed to secure passage of the commt.mity foundation state tax credit legislation. To implement the above strategy it is recommended that CMF seek speci a l project funds up to $65,000 . The funds wil l be raised fro m members who have an interest in the growth of community foundations. The funds will be used to pay for consulting assistance as recommended by the Government Relations Sub-Committee on the Community Foundation State Tax Credit. Commitments will only be made after special purpose funds have been secured. The policy to seek a tax credit for contributions to a community foundation is consistent with CMF's purpose to increase private and community foundation and corporate grantmaking resources in the State of Michigan. :983C �..--.,,. Att. 6b Public Sector Consultants, Inc. April 16, 1987 MEMORANDUM TO: The Council of Michigan Foundations FROM: Bill Rustem SUBJECT: TAX CREDIT STRATEGY Legislative Process Bills to amend Public Act 228 of 1975 (single business tax) and Public Act 281 of 1967 (income tax) should be introduced in the Senate because the issue of tax credits is more likely to receive favorable consideration from a Republican-controlled body . Passage by the Senate will provide the impetus for favorable action in the House, where Democrats are in control. The bills will be referred to the Senate Committee on Finance. Three members (a majority) of that committee have strong community foundations in their districts : Senator Norm Shinkle (R), Chair Community Foundation of Monroe County (also La-Z-Boy Chair Foundation and Monroe Foundation Trust) Senator Richard Posthumus (R) Grand Rapids Foundation Senator Lana Pollack (D) Ann Arbor Area Foundat ion Senator Posthumus should be asked to be the prime sponsor. He is the first choice because of his Senate leadership position ( assistant majority leader) and because the community foundation in his district is the oldest and second-largest in Michigan. He also is very ~lose to Senator John Engler, t he majority leader, and is majority vice- chair of the Finance Committee. Senator Shinkle chairs the Finance Committee and has a reputation for articulating Republican positions on tax matters. He should be asked to be a co- sponsor. Senator Pollack is minority vice-chair of the committee, and her co- sponsorship, as a Democrat, could help attract bi- partisan support. As soon as the bills are referred to committee, all five members [the other two are f r eshmen Doug Carl (R-Utica) a nd Christopher Dingell (D-Trenton)] should be contacted by letters and calls f r om the CMF urging support. The letters should be accompanied by a brie f (one- page) summary of the issue. Longer summaries are less likely to be read. The governor's l egislat i ve liaison (Stan Fedewa) a nd the state treas urer (Bob Bowman) will be kept advised by P ub lic Sector Consultants (PSC).

While Senate action is progressing, it will be advisable to monitor House a ction , watching for other bills to amend the single business a nd i ncome tax acts. As such bills a re intr oduced (several already have been), it will be necessary to devel op a legislative strate gy fo r the House, based in part on where the issues are in the Senate . I t i s possible that the CMF' s tax amendments. could be added in the Senate t o House- passed bills so that t he only House a ction required would be .concurrence i n Senate amendments. Representative Lynn Jondahl, who chairs the House Taxation Committee, should be advised early of the CMF's intent and convinced of i t s merit because his support is critical. An East Lansing Democrat, Jondahl is the leading spokesperson fnr Democratic--and t he governor's--interests on tax matters. He is serving his eighth term and is an ordained minister. Policy Decision A k ey policy decis ion for the CMF is whe ther to seek a per sonal income tax credit or a deduction for contributions. A deduction i n volves a subtraction of the contribution from the income tax base. For example, a $100 contribut or could subtract that amount f r om his/her net t axable income; a $100 contribution multiplied by the state income tax rate (i.e., 4.6 percent) wo u ld result in a tax reduc tion of $4.60. The tax deduction option against personal income t ax should be rejected. As described above, under a tax deduction, a contribution of $100 would result in a net cost to the taxpayer of $95.40 ($100 minus $4.60). An i ncome tax deduction simply does not provide sufficient incentive to encourage signif ican t gifts. Tax credits are much more import ant to the taxpayer because they are s ubtracted from tax owed, rather than from the tax base. Usin g again the example of a $100 contribution, the contributor could sub t ract $100 f r om tax owed, rather than the $4.60 in the examp l e above. Tax credits come in two forms, refundable and nonrefundable. An example of a refundab le tax credit is the homestead property tax credit, in which a taxpayer who does not owe the State any inc ome t ax will get a refund check in the a mount of the credit from the S tate. An example of a nonre f undable tax credit is t hat allowed for a contribution to a public b roadcas ting station. In this instance, a contributor who does not owe any state income t ax cannot get credit for the contribution because there is n othing from which to subtract it. We recommend tha t the CMF seek a nonrefundable public cont ribution credit · against the state income tax, as is a llowed for contribut ions to the Michigan Colleges Foundation. (This credit would be sepa r a t e from the credit currently available for contributions to colleges and universities, libraries , and the Michigan Colleges Foundation.) Un der s u ch a credit, the contribu t or computes the credit three ways and is allowed to take whichever amount is s mallest: �A. B. C. 50 percent of the contribution reported on line l8a, or 20 percent of the tax on line 16 of MI 1040, or $100 ($200 for a married couple filing a joint return). Option A would permit a gift of $100 at a cost of only $50 to the contributor. The nonrefundable provision means that a taxpayer who does not have any state tax liability cannot receive credit. This would reduce the cost to the State. It also is compatible with the governor's State of the State message in which he refers to evaluation of the feas ibility "of a state income tax credit for those who donate to community foundations." It has the further advantage of being based on precedent in the existing tax law (for contributions to the Michigan Colleges Foundation and other public purposes). PSC will research tax law in other states fo r similar pr ecedents. It usually is easier to sell a concept to the l egislature if it is based on precedent either in Michigan or other major industrial states. By current law, only a nonrefundable credit is allowable against the SBT. We recommend that the CMF seek legislation for a similar, but separate, credit to permit contributions to community foundations to the extent allowable for contributions such as those to public broadcasting stations: up to 5 percent of the tax liability or $5,000, whichever is less. Other Organizations We need to prevent a "bandwagon" effect. As the CMF proposals start through the legislative process, if other organizations, such as United Way, appear before legislative committees to ask that they be included, our effort probably will fail. What would happen could b e compared to loading a boat with cargo: if the cargo is light, the boat will Sail; if too much is loaded on, the boat will sink. There will be much greater chance of success if only one organization leads the way. If the CMF can blaze the trail a lone, not only will the CMF benefit, but the process will also be made much easier for other organizations to follow. We suggest that the CMF host a meeting with other major organizations to seek agreement that other organizations will not try to be included in the bills, but will wait until they are passed. In subsequent years, other organizations can seek inclusion , perhaps with the QIF support. If all organizations seek inclusion the first time , one of two things probably will happen: (l) the cost to the State will be . considered to be prohibitive and/o r (2) the legislative committees will bog down i n hearings on the matter and go on to other issues. The CMF could pledge its support for others' future legislative effort s in exchange for an agreement that the C}IT be permitted to make the legislative journey alone this year. Since only a bout one bill in six becomes law, the journey will be hazardous enough without further impediments. We s u ggest that the CHF consider the services of a lobbyist. \.Jhile Public Sector Consultants does not engage in legislative lobbying, we do develop public information or advocacy programs for clients. We also will be pleas ed to recommend a lobbyist whom we feel can best serve the CMF ' s interest . We have worked with several on a number of pro j ects in the past a nd can recormnend with confidence an individual or firm that vJill meet the CHF ' s high standards of inte grity and capability .

Michigan Foundation Center Collections Stevie Hertz, Foundation Center Regional Collection Volunteer for CMF, reported the "Regional Connection," a newsletter for foundation center regional libraries in Michigan, is a big succ e ss. The tabloid is published on a needs basis, one to be released soon . I t is a way for regional libraries to keep in touch, with each library supplying news. Sample Propos a l Book The sample priv a t e foundation, community f oundation and c o rpor ate· gi v ing program grant p r opos al book was compil e d at the r e que st of Michi g an Foundat i on Cent er Regional Co l le cti on librarians. �l It was presented to all those librarians in attendance at the 14th Annual CMF Conference in November 1986. Those collections not present were mailed a copy. The proposal book received rave reviews and was shared at the National Foundation Collection meeting at the Annual Council on Foundations meeting in Atlanta this spring. Since then CMF has received numerous inquiries to purchase the book. It is proposed that we refine and edit the proposal book, ma king it available nationally. The Foundation Center in New York will help alert Foundation Collections to its availa bility by listing it in their "Bookshelf" list and newsletter. CMF will promote the proposal book through the use of their mailing list of Michigan Public and Academic Libraries. Logos Associates Logos Associates, a Massachusetts based group, was discussed in regards to their marketing, for the second time, a Michigan Foundation Directory (Price $30).

Marshall III Willard J . Hertz W. Calvin Patterson III Gilbert Hudson Ranny Riecker Kay W. Hunt Leonard W. Smith Dorothy A. Johnson Proposed CMF Project Recommended Action: The Council of Michigan Foundations undertake a two-year special project to improve philanthropy. The project would be part of CMF's purpose "to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of Michigan's philanthropic network ." The proposed two - year, $60,000 budget would be supported by interested CMF Members. The project would be compatible with CMF's purpose to increase philanthropic resources in the state and with national efforts to increase and improve philanthropy. Background A group of foundation and corporate representatives interested in philanthropy met in June, 1985 at the invitation of Russell G. Mawby to discu ss how to improve philanthropy in Michigan. Discussions incl uded beginning and/or enhancing undergraduate a nd graduate programs in nonprofit management; training programs for nonprofit board members; campus volunteerism; and public understanding of philanthropy. Brian O'Connell, President , Indepedent Sector, met with the group to share nee ds a nd responses in other parts of the country. During the last two years Task Force Members explored how various programs might work in Michigan. Programs to i mprove philanthropy could include: - Creation o f Michigan Center for Nonprofit Management - Courses for board members and spec i fic training sessions for board chairpersons - Encouragement of student community service activities - Undergr aduate and grad uate cour ses a nd degree s �- Advanced management courses for talented people already in the sector - Encouragement of research in academic disciplines - Identification of the basic body of literature so necessary to awareness, study and encouragement to community and academic libraries to secure and promote such materials - Governor's Award Program and much more . The Task Force recognized that - many of these ideas should be implemented by interested, committed educational institutions, associations and individuals . CMF, nor one foundation , wanted or could do it all . - many institutions and associations need to be made aware of the need and market for such programs . - it would be extremely helpful to have a coordination point, as well as an advocate encouraging development of programs and ideas. the project to improve philanthropy is compatible with CMF ' s efforts to increase philanthropy in the state in concert with national programs sponsored by Independent Sector and the Council on Foundations . Therefore, the Task Force proposes that CMF undertake this coordination/advocacy on a two-year basis. Program It is proposed that CMF undertake the project engaging the necessary part-time staff member to implement the program from August, 1987 August, 1989 . The individual would be responsible for the f o l lowing: - Develop written materials about the need and potential project to improve philanthropy - Share materials with institutions, associa tions and individuals who can be helpful - Meet with key persons in the interested insti tutions and associations to explore and encourage their interest - Share results of discussions with interested CMF Members - Facilitate directory of nonprofit technical assistance providers �The person hired would need to be a self-starter, with entreperneurial skills and interest in philanthropy, who relates well with the public and has good writing skills. The individual should be familiar with the nonprofit and educational communities, have respected credentials and be available for a two-year, part-time commitment. It is suggested that an Advisory Committee be established to advise on the project. Several Members of the Task Force have expressed an interest in serving on the committee . . Budget - 1 year Program Associate - half-time $16,000 Travel - Meeting Expenses 5,000 Publications/Materials 7,000 Other expenses - telephone, clerical, etc . 2,000 Po tent ial Sources of Support Many of the members of the Task Force have expressed an interest on behalf of their foundation or corporation to receive a proposal for a two -year contribution . If the project is adopted by the Board of Trustees, CMF Members would be asked if they would like to participate in the program . A similar approach was utilized for the increasing philanthropy project which resulted in contributions from nearly 100 members. What is Going On Elsewhere Many board members are aware or have read about the number of nonprofit centers that have been established around the country in recent years. The latest is the Center on Philanthropy sponsored by Indiana University and supported by a $4 million grant from the Lilly Endowment (see attachment) . Other Centers exist at Duke, Vanderbilt, City University of New York, Yale, Case Western Reserve, and the University of San Francisco . The Association of American Colleges is sponsoring a program again in 1987 to develop and teach undergraduate courses on philanthropy in American society . In 1986, nine awards of $15,000 each were made to institutions to underwrite the development of curricula, the preparation of course materials, the purchase of books, the provision of released time, etc . Seven awards are planned for 1987. CMF has learned that one Michigan institution applied for a grant, but it was not awarded (see attached letter). I~ should be noted. that whatever comes of the Michigan project, the Task Force is sincerely interested in not reinventing the wheel just to have a Michigan project; to have whatever center or projects are developed cooperate nationally; and not to have CMF operate programs, but only facilitate the concept to providers who, in turn, would provide their own expertise and ingenuity to the challenge. �A further endorsement for a Michigan effort comes from Robert L . Gale , president of the Association of Governing Boards , who, in recent remarks reported in The Chronicle of Higher Education - May 20 , 1987 , indicated that there are a growing number of unversity programs to study philanthropy . " He said , 'the time is here to study philanthropy , warts and all ' ... He called for more and better research and writing on the subject ." Continued Funding The special project is proposed to last two yea r s . Ideally , the idea of improving philanthropy will be well accepted by that time and several programs underway . At this time it is anticipated t h at CMF would have no need to continue funding .
