Howard D. Kalleward
Membership Services Committee

The Membership Services Cornrni ttee met on May 29th at the Kalamazoo
Foundation to review C.KF services for 84/85 and to discuss C.KF' s
1985-86 Plan of Work.
Foundation Visitation Program

held in Midland involving the Midland Foundation, Dow Foundation,
Elsa U. Pardee Foundation, Rollin .K. Gerstacker Foundation, Charles
J. Strosacker Foundation, Dow Chemical Company Foundation and Dow
Corning Foundation.
The Skillman Foundation has expressed an interest in hosting a
visitation program in early 1986 and it is hoped a corporate
visitation can be scheduled in southeast Michigan in the near future.

involving:

85/86

School

III

sponsored with Greater Detroit Chamber of
Commerce

Detroit Area Grantmakers
Leonard W. Smith, Chairman, Detroit Area Grantmakers reported that
the luncheon series has been very successful and will continue in
the 85/86 fiscal year. A planning committee will be developing a
new schedule with sites and topics.

�Standards of Practice
The Membership Services Committee recommends that CMF not adopt
formal "standards of practice," but INSTEAD circulate materials on
good foundation practice.
Further details would be available on "how to" achieve these
practices. Examples might be preparing an annual report, personnel
policies, recruiting trustees, and establishing guidelines.
Other Services
This summer CMF will sponsor a session for private foundation
Members at the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation on the administrative
cost provision, which takes affect with fiscal years beginning in
1985.
CMF will convene Members responsible for recent "Audit Experience
Panel" to compile written materials useful for all private
foundations in hopes of circulating a generic version.
A final
decision on publication will be made after all the material is
assembled.
Eight new services are being developed per the Strategic Plan as
follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.

Prepare notebooks on corporate contributions management
topics.
Develop community foundation operating manual with sample forms
in format which may be added to and amended.
Compile a list of consultants available to assist grantmakers
on newsletter preparation, media, evaluation, and development.
Consider board meeting visitation program whereby consenting
grantmakers would invite guests to observe their board meeting.
Survey unstaffed foundation members by mail, phone and on-site
visit as to service requests.
Facilitate meetings between unstaffed foundations.
Consider "standards of practice" as requested by Members.
Convene meeting of the Advisory Cabinet at 13th Annual
Conference.

Ms. Dorothy A. Johnson, Executive Director
Council of Michigan Foundations
18 North Fifth Street
Grand Haven, MI 49417
Dear Ms. Johnson:
This letter is in response to our recent telephone conversation .
The United Jeiwsh Charities, the parent body which established and
funds the Jewish Community Foundation, was organized in 1899 as a
Michigan non-profit corporation and is a 501 (c) (3) organization
under the Internal. Revenue Code. The Charities complies with all
Federal and State-reporting requireme nts ·including th·e fllin·g of
Form 990. Since 1926 when the Jewish Welfare Federation was set up,
United Jewish Charities has served as the property and asset holding
corporation for the organized Jewish community of Detroit.
The Jewish Community Foundation was established in 1964 as a mlnl foundation under the United Jewish Charities umbrella, to provide
funds for demonstration and innovative projects which qualifying
agencies or organ.izations could not finance from operating budgets~
Grants for a single project were li mited to three years. Initially,
the Foundation received $100,000 annually for distribution. Several
years ago the annual sum was increased to $200,000 and the Foundation
mav accumulate undistributed sums for arants at a future time.
·.-Attached are two 1 ists. One presents the local and national projects
~ funded over a t~enty year-period .
The other lists the grants approved
during the past year.
The Council of Michigan Foundations is unique in its objectives and
membership, bringing together organizations with like purposes from
different segments of commu nity life. The pri mary benefit to our
Jew ish Community Foundation will be ed ucational. We are mindful
that changes in the env i ronmen t and economy of a community, the
aging of our pop ulat ion , the cha ll enge of youth and young adults

call for creative planning and programming by service-oriented
agencies. The Council provides a forum for exchange of_ideas and
sharing of criteria for evaluating grant bequests. It 1s an
opportunity which will be beneficial to our Foundation.

Information Systems Committee Report

Items Needing Action :
A.

The Information Systems Committee recommends that the Council of
Michigan Foundations change its name to one of the following names:
Council of Michigan Grantmakers
Council of Michigan Grantmakers
(An association of foundations and corporations
making grants for charitable purposes)
Council of Michigan Foundation and Corporate Grantmakers
It is the Committee's opinion that CMF should now change its name for
the following reasons :
-Need to reflect corporations as "equal" Members of organization
-Need to fulfill Strategic Plan efforts to increase membership and
service to corporate grantmakers
-Change in office location/address and consequently letterhead, etc.
-During 1985-86 all CMF materials are being reviewed for consistent
design approach by Bob Hencey
Graphics will be available at the meeting .
If approved by the Board of Trustees. the membership will be notified and
a vote will be taken by the Members at the November 6, 1985 Annual Members
Meeting as required when Articles of Incorporation/name change is made.

The Council is 2-ware that the U.S. Trecsury has recornme noe a
changes in charitable t2x tree:t.n•ent whjch would result in ' a
reduction of gifts to charity of nearly $12 billion a year .
Tnese changes would mean a 27 percent drop in donations to
higher education and similar drastic oeclines in support of
the arts and culture, United v~ay agencies, health and religjon .
Tne result -would be to severely cripple the ability of
American 's non-profit hurran services organizations and other
charities to help oeal with a wide rang e of social prdbJems
and needs -within our society .

COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS
Legislative Statement
Background
In 1977 the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) Members
directed the Board of Trustees to develop a public information
program in support of Michigan foundation philanthropy and to
institute a plan to communicate with public policy makers.
A
Conference Mandate (Government Relations) Committee was
established for this purpose.
The Government Relations Committee has surveyed the CMF Members
on their legislative interests and priorities on a ti mely basis.
There continues to be a concensus that this is the time for
foundations to continue working to make themselves and their
accomplishments known to Congress and other appropriate
government representatives.
In 1980 CMF launched a "Developing
Good Will Program" to assist in this information effort.
CMF has worked with Member foundations. the Council on
Foundations and other Regional Associations tu bring about
changes in the mandatory payout to a flat five percent. a
reduction in the excise tax for private foundations and a ch a nge
in the limitation on gifts to private foundations and several
other provisions pertaining to private foundations contained in
the 1984 tax bill.
The CMF Board of Trustees approved the initial legislative
statement on March 1. 1979.
Revised statements were approved
September 19. 1980. January 27. 1982 and May 10. 1983.
ACTION NECESSARY- June 14. 1985
The Government Relations Committee presents the following
analysis of the . current statement with proposed action for your
consideration.
Upon approval a revised legislative statement
will be prepared.
HIGH PRIORITY LEGISLATIVE ISSUES
1.

Goal:
Change the 20% limitation on gifts to a private
foundation to 50%.

�Explanation:
Under existing law. the amount deductible by
an individual taxpayer for contributions to non-operating
private foundations cannot exceed 20% of the gifts of
appreciated property or 30% or gifts of cash of the donor•s
contribution base (which. in most cases. is his adjusted
gross income). On the other hand. an individual taxpayer
can deduct up to 50% of his contribution base for gifts to
public charity .
Recommendation:
2.

No change in goal. acknowledge progress.

Goal:
Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer to a
private foundation on certain capital gain property.
Explanation:
Under existing law. individual taxpayers can
make a gift of appreciated property of publicly traded
stock if the gift is less than 10% of the outstanding stock
of a company and receive a deduction for the full amount
given.
However in other cases the amoun t of the gift must
be reduced by 40% of the amount of the appreciation if
given to a non-operating private foundation.
It should be
pointed out that the same gift to a public charity entitles
a taxpayer to a deduction for the full amount given.
Recommendation:

3.

Goal : Make the five year carry-forward on excess
charitable contributions by individuals and corporations
applicable to such contributions to non-operating private
foundations.
Explanation:

Passed into law 1984.

Recommendation:
4.

Remove from statement.

Goal:
Establish a small grant rule. which would allow
grants for charitable purposes of under $25.000 to be free
of expenditure responsibility .
Recommendation:

5.

No change in goal. acknowledge progress.

Retain

Goal:
Seek relief from the first level penalty tax for
unwi llful or inadvertent mistakes.
Some foundation
manager s and advisors honestly make a mistake without
malice- of-forethought.
They are severely penalized and
some lawyers suggest relief from the first level penalty .
Explanation:
In
Secretary of the
(except for self reasonable cause

1984 authority was granted for the
Treasury to abate first-tier penalty taxes
dealing) if the violation was due to
and is corrected.

�Recommendation:
reasonable.
6

0

Goal:

Remove from statement.

1984 response

Place a limitation on who is a diaqualified person.

Explanation:
In 1984 a law was passed that lineal
descendants of disqualified persons who are considered
members of the individual's family and. ther~fore.
disqualified persons. are limited to the individual's
children. grandchildren and great-grandchildren and their
spouses.
The law further states that substantial contributors to a
foundation will not retain that status if, over a 10 - year
period, they made no further contributions to the
foundation, do not manage it, and their total contributions
are considered insignificant in light of subsequent growth
in foundation assets.
Recommendation:
Acknowledge progess. however work towards
having a disqualified person no longer so classified after
grandchildren.
7.

Goal:
Pursue change of certain Internal Revenue Service
regulations which pose hardships on public charities and
jeopardize their fund-raising potentials.
Of particular
concern are the tipping regulations whereby a public
charity may lose its public charity status because of a
private foundation grant.
Explanation:
The Treasury has been directed to extend the
advance ruling period during which qualifying new
organizations are considered public charities to five
years. and to amend its regulations to permit greater
reliance on IRS classifications concerning new
organizations during the first five years of their
existence.
Recommendation:
Continue goal. in light of revised
regulations which are now being considered by Treasury as
presented by lawyer's group representing private
foundations.

8.

Goal:
Maintain the private foundation payout rate at 5% as
not to diminish the real value of a foundation's
grantmaking capability.
Recommendation:

Add "at not more than 5% 11

�9.

Goal:
Support relaxation of the public support test for
community foundations.
Recommendation:

Continue

RECOMMENDED NEW HIGH PRIORITY LEGISLATIVE ISSUES
1.

Goal:
Support the creation of new foundations and the tax
incentives which enhance the desirability of a donor to
create a foundation.
Explanation:
This goal is a new and the fifth purpose of
CMF.
As plans for its implementation evolve other
legislative priorities. not listed here. may evolve.
The
Council on Foundations is currently studying the birth and
death rate of foundations in a joint study with the Yale
Institute on Non-Profit Management.
The results of this
study will also be helpful in strategizing future
legislation helpful to the creation of private foundations.
Recommendation:

2.

Goal:
Monitor effect of .65% administrative cost
provisions of 1984 law and take whatever action may be
appropriate to propose new provisions relating to
administrative expense rules.
Recommendation:

3.

Adopt

Adopt

Goal:
Reduce excise tax to a flat 1%, instead of the
complicated formula now used which allows in some c a ses for
a reduction from 2% to 1%.
Explanation:
The 1984 tax act allows that the excise tax
will be reduced from 2 to 1 percent if the foundation's
payout for the year in question equals or exceeds an amount
equal to the year's assets times the average payout
percentage for the previous five years. plus one percent of
the foundation's net investment income.
Recommendation:

Adopt

OTHER LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES
1.

Goal:
Allow private foundations to charge their investment
expenses to their required payout amount for charitable
purposes.

�Recommendation:
2.

Goal:
Exclude from the formula used to compute the exc1se
tax on private foundation net investment income any capital
gain realized in the fiscal year in question.
Recommendation:

3.

Continue

Continue

Goal:
Support the right of foundations seeking relief to
the excess business holdings requirement which states that
a private foundation formed after 1969 must divest of its
excess business holdings within five years.
Explanation:
The 1984 tax act states that the IRS may
extend the dive~titure period for a private foundation
formed after 1969. if they show good faith in attempting to
divest during the five years and file a divestiture. plan.
Recommendation:

4.

Accomplished

Goal:
Extend declaratory judgement procedure to various
private foundation issues including set asides. individual
grant programs and company scholarship programs.
Presently
there is no way to litigate.
It is proposed to extend
declaratory judgement procedures to issues which require
advance IRS action.
Recommendation:

Continue

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a. Organization
The Council of Michigan Foundations , Inc. is a nonprofit membership
organization founded in 1973 and incorporated in 1975. Members are
private and community foundations, banks serving foundations and
charitable trusts, and corporations with giving programs. The purposes
of CMF are to provide the means for regular exchange of ideas ,
experiences, information, and expertise among Michigan grantmakers;
to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of Michigan's philanthropic
network; to inform the public of the important and irreplaceable
contributions of Michigan foundations and grantmaking institutions to
the state and to the larger society ; to represent Michigan grantmakers'
interests and concerns with the officials of local, state, and national
government .
b.

Statement Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the cash
basis of accounting . To ensure observance · of restrictions placed on the
use of available resources , the accounts and financial activity are classifiec
for accountin g and reporting purposes into fund groups. Funds restricted
for specially funded projects are distinguished from General Operating
Funds.
Both the General Operating Fund and the Special Project Funds are
authorized by the Council's Board of Trustees with the establishment of
approved revenue and expense budgets at the beginning of each year . The
Treasurer 's Report of the Statement of Budgeted Operations and Changes in
Cash Balances displays the year 's activity as compared to these approved
budgets. The Statement of Revenue and Expense and changes in Fund Balances ,
and the relate d Schedule of Special Projects Funds, report the activity
detail by fund groups, resulting in the impact on the Fund Balance for
each fund.
Revenues received and expenses paid in the current year pertaining
to project activity of a future period are recorded as deferred revenue and
expense on the Balance Sheet of the present period .

c.

The Council capitalizes all expenditures for furniture, equipment and lease hold improvements. Furniture and equipment are Depreciated on the straightline method over their estimated useful lives. Leasehold improvements are
amortiz ed on the straight-line method over the remaining life of the lease.
Furniture and equipment contributed in kind to the Council are reported as
contributions in the Properties Fund at approximate fair market value on
the date of such contributions and are not depreciated .

�Italian Renaissance Sculpture in the Time of Donatello
The Detroit Institute of Arts, in association with the National Gallery of Art in
Washington, D.C. and the City of Florence, Italy, is organizing a major special
exhibition entitled Italian Renaissance Sculpture in the Time of Donatello. This
exhibition is conceived as a celebration of the 600th anniversary of the birth of
Donatello, one of Europe's greatest sculptors. Works by Donatello, his
colleagues, contemporaries and successors will be assembled from museums
and collections throughout Europe and the United States. The exhibition will
bring together and present works by all the major fifteenth century sculptors
who were active in and near Donatello's time, particularly in Tuscany, and to
provide a reassessment of Italian sculpture of the period. Approximately 100
sculptures, drawings and other works of art have been committed for loan by
leading museums and collections in Italy, Austria, Germany, France, England
and the United States.
This exhibition will be the first major international exhibition in America ever
devoted to Italian sculpture in Donatello's time. In addition to sculptures by
Donatello, works by the other principal Tuscan sculptors, such as Jacopo della
Quercia, Nanni di Banco, Brunelleschi, Ghiberti, Nanni di Bartolo, Michelozzo,
Luca della Robbia, Bellano, Bertoldo, Adriano Fiorentino, Antonio Rossellino,
Desiderio, and Mino da Fiesole will be included. Disparate types of sculptures,
such as the portrait bust, Madonna and Child groups, other religious sculpture,
reliefs and medals will also be incorporated into the exhibition.
The works displayed will focus on the period from about 1420 to about 1490.
During this period, Florence was the leading center in Italy and the world for
artistic production and patronage. The work of Donatello and his
contemporaries provided high standards of achievement which artists of the
next generations, including Raphael, Michelangelo, Bronzino and Bandinelli,
could strive to emulate. The exhibition will also include works \:&gt;y younger
Quattrocento Italian sculptors in other Italian centers, as well as Florence. These
works will demonstrate the range of problems and achievements represented in
Italian early Renaissance art.

�A scholarly catalogue will be written and educational programs for the
exhibition such as films, slide packets, didactic panels, photomurals and
brochures will discuss artistic interrelationships among Renaissance sculptors,
architects, and painters; the training of the Renaissance artist; and the materials
and working processes for making sculpture in the fifteenth century. These
displays will be arranged to fascinate people of all ages and backgrounds by
integrating technical and aesthetic information into one unified, educational
program.
From a scholarly standpoint, the exhibition will investigate areas hitherto not
fully examined of Italian, and .particularly Tuscan, fifteenth-century sculptural
styles, subjects, materials, and techniques. It will proceed from the art of
Donatello, the greatest of the Quattrocento sculptors, to consider his colleagues,
rivals and followers in the field of sculpture, among them Ghiberti, Luca della
Robbia, Alberti, Francesco di Giorgio, Bertoldo, Rossellino, Desiderio, Mino,
and Verrocchio. In addition, the exhibition will demonstrate the ri~hness and
variety in Italian early Renaissance sculpture by presenting fiftee~th-century
masterworks of the highest quality, never before shown in one exhibition. This
will be a unique opportunity for comparison and analysis of sculptures by
major Quattrocento masters, some of them well documented, others often
problematic. It is hoped that the Internati~nal Congress of Art Historians,
which will be held in Washington, D.C. during September, 1986, will be able to
devote sessions to the analysis of new problems which ~ill come to light as. a
result of this exhibition.

�The National Gallery of Art and The Detroit Institute of Arts have two of the
finest collections of Italian Renaissance sculptures in the world and are
particularly familiar with organizing major international exhibitions of Italian
art, such as North Italian Engravings, The Twilight of the Medici, and The
Golden Age of Naples. By organizing Italian Renaissance Sculpture in the Time
of Donatello, both institutions will be able to encourage other major European
and American museums to participate in lending important sculptures to this
exhibition. The many types of relief Madonnas by, attributed to, or influenced by
Donatello have, for example, never before been gathered together for public
appreciation and scholarly study. Moreover, as a result of r~cent research, a new
examination of artistic style and chronology during the emergence of the
Florentine Renaissance, with particular reference to Donatello C;lnd his influ~~ce,
is planned for the exhibition.
·
This exhibition will be a major international show with a scholarly catalogue
enlisting the services of the finest Renaissance scholars from Europe and
America. Professor H.W. Janson, author of the classic monograph on Donatello,
was actively involved with the organization of the exhibition from 1979 until
his death in September, 1982. Professor Janson's ideas for revising his Donatello
monograph, as well as those of other leading Renaissance scholars, will be
incorporated into the relevant portions of the exhibition catalogue. This
exhibition will aim at creating a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for citizens and
visitors in America to enjoy masterpieces of Italian early Renaissance sculpture
and for scholars to analyze both the impact of Donatello's work upon his time
and the nature of contemporary approaches to sculpture that were different
from his.

suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation or its members and except that no indemnification
shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to
which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for
negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duty to the

Office Automation Project

Proposed:

CMF purchase office automation equipment.

Background: Price Waterhouse was engaged in December 1984 to assess CMF's
office automation needs. Their expert in small office systems interviewed
the CMF staff and observed office procedure in order to document CMF's
requirements, details of which are ava·ilable. Request for proposals were
sent to IBM, DEC and Wang. Upon their submission PW and the CMF staff met
with the three vendors and software distributors to evaluate the proposed
systems. Reference checks have been made and on-site visits will be made
before order would be placed. Laura Davis, Assistant Vice President,
W.K. Kellogg Foundation and Thomas W. Herbert, Vice President, Kresge
Foundation assisted informally throughout the process.
Budget: It is estimated that the total cost of equipment, software and
implementation will be $65,000 as follows:

*Annual expense to be assumed in CMF operating budget in 1986-87 from savings
on existing equipment (Burroughs Redactron and IBM typewriter non longer needed.
Funding:
It is proposed that CMF seek special purpose grants to meet the
Strategic Plan objectives as follows:
Kresge Foundation - $40,000
W.K. Kellogg Foundation - $25,000
Ted Johnson and I met with WKKF officers January 17 , 1985 to discuss the
proposal and January 20, 1985 with officers of the Kresge Founda tion.

M E M0 R A N D U M
January 21, 1985
Advantages of a Wang VS System Versus a PC Network System

WANG VS (Mini-Computer System)

PC (Micro Computer Network)

1.

Easier to understand and use.

1.

Less sophisticated operating
system requiring more
operator training and
technical assistance for
fine tuning.

2.

Proven operating system for
a multi-user and multitasking system .

2.

Networking capabilities with
2-3 workstations is a relatively new technology that
will present some complications.

3.

Flexibility and expandability of main memory,
disk memory, workstations
and printers. Easier to
add more memory.

3.

Limited main memory and
disk memory capacity.

4.

Growth potential much
better and easier.

4.

Cost for additional boards,
cabling, and peripheral
features are oftentimes
hidden.

5.

A mini-computer environment .

5.

PCs were not designed and
often lack the horsepower
to become distributed
processing systems.

6.

More office automation
software ~hich works
toward a totally integrated
word processing-data
processing system. These
functions are completely
separate on a PC.

6.

Required PC networking
software (overhead) may
detract from available
memory and user response
times.

�7.

Current and future system
support (marketing, technical
training, etc.) resides with
one organization.

8.

Enhanced system security and
controls.

9.

More processes requiring
human intervention are
ma naged by the operating
system .

7.

PCs require several support
organizations based upon
what hardware/software is
purchased and from whom .
Full s e cur ity f eatures
(logon, password, file
protect , record protect)
may not be supported.

9.

PC environment may require
more user file (floppy disk)
handling and human intervention.

10. Improved system performance (throughput) c·ompared
to a PC configuration.

10. File recovery procedures
may be more complicated.

11. PC capabilities can be
added as a workstation
option.

11. Some PC networks will not
support shared modems .
12. Users may be restricted to
certain applications while
another person is on the
system. If data files are
sharable, timing of data
entry and data integrity may
be of concern .
13. Implementing equipment,
features, and future
capabilities will oftentimes require much more
technical assistance .
14. More limited technical
support from vendor.

James M. Richmond
Government Relations Committee Chairman
CMF Bo a rd Resolution on u.s. Treasury Department's
Proposed Changes to Charitable Tax Deductions

The Council of Michigan Foundations strongly urges the President
and the U.S. Treasury Department to maintain current tax treatment of contributions by American citizens to charity.
The Council is aware that the U.S. Treasury has recommended
changes in charitable tax treatment which would result in a
reduction of gifts to charit¥ of nearly $12 billion a yeai.
These changes would mean a 27 percent drop in donations to higher
education and similar drastic declines in support of the arts and
culture, United Way agencies, health and religion. The result
would be to severely cripple the ability of American's non-profit
human services organizations and other charities to help deal with
a wide range of social problems and needs within our society.
The Treasury Department's recommendations are contrary to this
Administration's call for volunteers and voluntary organizations
to play a larger role in helping people solve human problems and
provide for community needs.
The recommended tax changes contradict the basic purpose of the
charitable deduction which has been to foster private giving for
public purposes. The record shows that the deduction of charitable
gifts has provided a significant incentive for increased giving.
The importance of this deduction has been recognized for almost
seventy years, having been passed by Congress in 1917 to foster
private giving for public purposes.
The Council of Michigan Foundations, therefore, calls on the U.S.
Treasury Department to withdraw the charitable contributions proposals. The Council also urges the President and Congress to
e x ercise their influence in seeking withdrawal of the Treasury
proposals which impact charitable contributions in society.
Note: Nancy Feller of the Ford Foundation has agreed to represent CMF at the INDEPENDENT SECTOR conference on the charitable tax
proposals scheduled for January 28/29 in Washington, D.C.
Next meeting:
CMF Government Relations Committee meeting Thur sday,
May 9, 1985, Mott Foundation offices, Flint, Michigan.

�About CMF
The Council of Michigan Foundations is a non-profit association of 207 Michigan grantmakers, including 127 private foundations, 27 community foundations, 39 corporate foundations and giving programs, and 14 banks serving foundations and charitable trusts. 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 18 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 of local, 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.

The Year in Review
In 1985-86 the Council of Michigan Foundations strengthened its ability to fulfill its mission to
increase the efficiency and effectiveness of Michigan's philanthropic network. During the last
year the 21 member Board of Trustees, eight standing committees and staff have
accomplished:
• Implementation of Strategic Plan and Financial Plan. 125 Members made additional contributions to CMF.
• Twenty-four new members.
• The 13th Annual Conference in Detroit "Solutions to Community Problems - Ideas That
Work" which attracted 510 participants.
• CMF Legislative Network met with 18 Congressmen or their staffs in Washington, D.C. to
discuss the importance of philanthropy.
• Advisory Cabinet provided guidance and leadership on how to fulfill CMF's newest purpose
"to increase grantmaking resources in the State of Michigan. "
• The CMF office moved to expanded new quarters made possible by The Loutit Foundation
and the Grand Haven Area Community Foundation. The Wege Foundation and the
Steelcase Corporation provided the office furniture. CMF operations were also enhanced
with installation of office automation equipment.
• Four one-day workshops on corporate giving issues, fund raising strategies for community
foundations, grant evaluation techniques and private foundation tax issues held.
• 12 meetin_gs of local grantmakers throughout the state.
• Co-sponsored two grantsmanship seminars offered as part of Michigan Bell "Stretching and
Raising Dollars" for non-profit organizations.
• Served as consultant on establishing private foundations and corporate giving programs and
offered assistance to community foundations.
• Record sales of fourth edition of the Michigan Foundation Directory and publication of the
fifth edition released in spring, 1986.
• Publication of 11 Memo to Members; six community foundation Memo to Members and
three editions of The Michigan Scene.

�Plans for the Future
During 1986-87 the Council of Michigan Foundations will continue pursuing the five purposes
and provide the several services noted elsewhere in this report. Special emphasis is to be given
to CMF's newest purpose "to increase private and community foundation and corporate
grantmaking resources in the State of Michigan." Dr. Russell G. Mawby, Chairman, W.K.
Kellogg Foundation will serve as Chairman for this effort. We plan to work with individual
donors interested in encouraging others to consider making a community foundation contribution or establishing a fund; creating a private foundation or encouraging a corporation to do
the same. CMF will provide the technical materials and consultative services.
CMF continues to meet the four year strategic planning goals adopted by the Board of
Trustees in January, 1985. Membership has increased, members have understood and supported the membership contribution increase and the quality and quantity of services has continued. All of this is made possible by the dedication, commitment and hard work of the CMF
volunteers.
T he strengthening of the philanthropic network helps grantmakers help others. It's an exciting partnership and we look forward to future developments and challenges.

Ted L. Johnson
Chairman of the Board

Dorothy A. Johnson
President

Notes to Financial Statement
March 31, 1986
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a.

b.

Organization
The Council of Michigan Foundations, Inc. is a
non-profit membership organization founded in
1973 and incorporated in 1975. Members are
private and community foundations, banks serving foundations and charitable trusts, and corporations with giving programs.
Statement Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have
been prepared on the cash basis of accounting.
To ensure observance of restrictions placed on
the use of available resources, the accounts and
financial activity are classified for accounting
and reporting purposes into fund groups. Funds
restricted for Specially Funded Projects are
distinguished from General Operating Funds.
Both the General Operating Fund and the
Special Project Funds are authorized by the
Council's Board of Trustees with the establishment of approved revenue and expense budgets
at the beginning of each year. The Treasurer's
Report of the Statement of Revenue and Ex-

penses and Changes in Fund Balances report the
activity detail by fund groups, resulting in the
impact on the Fund Balance for each fund.
Revenues received and expenses paid in the current year pertaining to project activity of a
future period are recorded as deferred revenue
and expense on the Balance Sheet of the present
period.
c.

The Council capitalizes all expenditures for furniture and equipment. Purchased furniture and
equipment are depreciated on the straight-line
method over their estimated useful lives. Furniture and equipment contributed in kind to the
Council are reported as contributions at approximate fair market value on the date of such contributions and are not depreciated.

2. Tax Status
CMF is tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) and
is not a private foundation under Section 509(a)
(1) of the Internal Revenue Code.

TURBULENCE IN THE HEALTH CARE
ARENA: COMMUNITY CRISIS AND
RECOVERY - HEALTH SESSION I

Pierce Arrow Suite, Second Level
Health care is not what it was 50 or
30 or 10 years ago. Nor what it will
be tomorrow. New and fast changing issues such as technology,
ethics, funding of care, and access
to care are profoundly affecting
the lives of people in every community.
Grantmakers are agents of change
for the betterment of society, but
what areas of health care are most
in need of these philanthropic resources? Where can your organization's funding have maximum
effect in this arena of complex, lifedealing concerns? And, why is it
vital that action be taken?

of a community's cost of treating
illness is best achieved by a competitive environment in the postregulatory age.

10:45 - 11:00 a.m.

A no-holds-barred debate. Statistics show the awesome impact of
health care costs and access on
communities. Tax dollars, corporate profits, and individual income
are diverted in large measure to
pay for such care. The fiscal and
environmental attractiveness of a
city or county is enhanced by the
status of its health care industry.
