Grand Haven, MI 49717
Dear Sandy:
Enclosed you will find the information on the proposed Council
of Michigan Foundation's dinner at The Detroit Institute of
Arts on Thursday evening, November 7, 1985.
Both the menu and floor plans suggest a progressive event
involving cocktails, food, dessert, liquers, and a tour of
the exhibition in six areas of the lvtuseum. The areas I propose utilizing are indicated on the floor plan and are, at
this point, only one possible way of organizing your event.
Per your budgetary constraints, as discussed at our meeting,
the event herein outlined has an estimated cost of $35.00 per
person, inclusive of all costs including music.
If you have any questions or if I may provide more information which would be _helpful to your committee in its decisionmaking process, please feel free to call.

COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS
STRATEGIC PLAN - 1985-89
Progress Report to Members
November 7, 1984
At the 1983 Members Meeting the Board of Trustees announced
that a Strategic Planning Committee had been formed to
p rovide for continued success of the organization by determining
the basis for policy, planning a nd general r esourc e all oc a t i on
over the next four years.
The Board of Trustees identified several reasons to do
long range planning including
-It assesses additional needs of Members
-It identifies new opportunities and new resources
-It allows CMF to explore realistic options
-It provides for performance measurements beyond
the annual measurements now made as part of the
Plan of Work
-It creates long-range action plans
The Committee decided it was essential to attempt to draw
as broadly as possible upon the experience and attitudes
of CMF Members. Under the Committee's direction, a questionnaire
was developed by the consulting firm employed to assist
in the Strategic Planning effort, (Touche Ross &amp; Company)
and sent to all Members.
In addition, representatives
from Touche Ross &amp; Company conducted interviews with CMF
members who were selected by the Committee as representatives
of various Member constituencies.
At the June, 1984 Board of Trustees Meeting the Board approved
the strategic direction of the organization as well as
eleven specific goals.
These goals, primarily in the service
area, were adopted with the understanding that the level
and quality of existing services and programming would
continue. Task forces examined operating plans to meet
each goal. The following report lists the goal and suggested
methods to achieve the goal.
Strategic Planning Committee
Gilbert Hudson, (Chairman), President, Hudson-Webber Foundation
Thomas W. Herbert, Vice President, The Kresge Foundation
Kay Jensen, Trustee, The Jensen Foundation
Ted L. Johnson, President, Fremont Area Foundation
Donald A. Lindow, Vice President, National Bank of Detroit
~v. Calvin Patterson, III, District Manager, Michigan Bell Telephone Co.
James M. Richmond, Vice President, W.K. Kellogg Foundation
Ranny Riecker, Trustee, Herbert H. &amp; Grace A. Dow Foundation
William S. White, President, Charles Stewart Mott Foundation
Dorothy A. Johnson, Ex ecutive Director, Council of Michigan Foundations

�-2Goal:

Michigan"

Suggested Methods:
Private

~oundations

area (using CMF Trustees and Members) who would
provide leadership in their area.
Such an individual
might target likely prospects over a several year
period.

3.

MEMBER CONTRIBUTION

INCR~ASE

PLAN

-

ALTERNATIVES FOR IMPLEMENTING THE MEMBER CONTRIBUTION INCREASE TO FUND
STRATEGIC PLAN PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED SINCE THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS'
APPROVAL AT THE ANNUAL MEETING.

-

A NUMBER OF FACTORS WERE CONSIDERED TO DEVELOP AN APPROPRIATE STRATEGY.
THESE WERE:

AMONG

ANNUAL GROWTH IN NUMBER OF MEMBERS
GROWTH IN ASSETS OF MEMBERS
REASONABLENESS OF CONTRIBUTION CATEGORIES
MATCHING ENDOWED ORGANIZATION ASSET CATEGORIES WITH UNENDOWED ORGANIZATION
ANNUAL GRANT CATEGORIES
TIMING OF INCREASE
EQUITABILITY FOR ALL MEMBERS
THREE DIFFERENT APPROACHES TO INCREASING CONTRIBUTION WERE CONSIDERED.
A
MODEL WAS PREPARED TO TEST WHETHER OR NOT EACH APPROACH MET ANNUAL BUDGET
PROJECTIONS REQUIRED TO ACCOMPLISH THE STRATEGIC PLAN. The strategic Planning
Committee and Executive Committee recommend Scenario III, the specifics of which
follow.

�COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS
STRATEGIC PLANNING
MEMBER CONTRIBUTION INCREASE PLAN
(CONTINUED)

-

ASSUMPTIONS USED IN THE MODEL ARE CONSERVATIVE AND DO NOT SHO W MEMBER
COMPLIANCE WITH CONTRIBUTION INCREASES UNTIL THE 1987-1988 FISCAL YEAR.

-

GROWTH IN NUMBER OF MEMBERS, GROWTH OF MEMBER ASSETS AND TREATMENT OF
CORPORATE MEMBERS ARE PROJECTED TO BE THE SAME UNDER EACH APPRO ACH .
KEY
ASSUMPTIONS ARE:
MEMBERSHIP WILL INCREASE IN THE LESS THAN $200,000, $200,000 - $1 MI LLION,
$1 - 5 MILLION AND $5 - 10 MILLION CATEGORIES AT A RATE OF 10 PERCE NT PER

YEAR AS A RESULT OF THE MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN AND CMF EFFORTS TO STI MULATE
NEW FOUNDATION/GIVING PROGRAM START-UPS.
THIS IS APPROXIMATEL Y 12 NEW
MEMBERS PER YEAR.

SOME ATTRITION WILL OCCUR AS A REACTION TO INCREASING CONTRIBUTIO N. A FIVE
PERCENT LOSS OF MEMBERSHIP IN THE ABOVE CATEGORIES IS PROJ ECT ED FOR

1986-1987.

MEMBER FOUNDATIONS' ASSETS WILL GROW OVER TIME. THE MODEL ASS UME S THAT
FOUNDATIONS WILL GRANT FIVE PERCENT OF ASSETS ANNUALLY AND WILL EARN AN
EIGHT PERCENT ANNUAL RETURN.
FIVE PERCENT OF MEMBER CONTRIBUTIONS WILL BE FORGIVEN ANNUALLY BECAUSE OF
SOME ORGANIZATIONS' INABILITY TO PAY.

SCENARIO II ADJUSTS THE CONTRIBUTION SCALE SO THAT EACH CATEGORY PAYS AN EQUAL
PERCENTAGE OF AVERAGE ANNUAL GRANTS.

-

SCENARIO III ADJUSTS CONTRIBUTION BY ASSESSING GREATER PERCENTAGE INCREASES IN
THE SMALLER ASSET SIZE CATEGORIES AND THE LARGEST ASSET CATEGORIES.
MORE SERVICES WILL BE PROVIDED TO SMALL FOUNDATIONS AND CORPORATE GIVING
PROGRAMS. THEREFORE, CMF's COST TO SERVE THE ORGANIZATIONS IN THE SMALLER
ASSET CATEGORIES IS GREATER.
•

LARGER FOUNDATIONS ARE ASSESSED A GREATER PERCENTAGE INCREASE BECAUSE THEY
CURRENTLY CONTRIBUTE A VERY SMALL PERCENTAGE OF ANNUAL GRANTS TO CMF AND
THEY HAVE A GREATER CAPABILITY TO PAY.

�COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS
STRATEGIC PLAN - 1985-89
Strategic Planning Committee Recommendations
to Board of Trustees
Section I
At the 1983 Members Meeting the Board of Trustees announced
that a Strategic Planning Committee had been formed to
provide for continued success of the organization by determining
the basis for policy, planning and general resource allocation
over the next four years.
The Board of Trustees identified several reasons to do
long range planning including
-It assesses additional needs of Members
-It identifies new opportunities and new resources
-It allows CMF to explore realistic options
-It provides for performance measurements beyond
the annual measurements now made as part of
the Plan of Work
-It creates long-range action plans
The Committee decided it was essential to attempt to draw
as broadly as possible upon the experience and attitudes
of CMF Members .
Under the Committee's direction, a questionnaire
was developed by the consulting firm employed to assist
in the Strategic Planning effort, (Touche Ross &amp; Company)
and sent to all Members.
Ninety-five Members (60%) completed
the questionnaire, considered by the consultant to be an
excellent response .
In addition, representatives from
Touche Ross &amp; Company conducted interviews with seven CMF
members who were selected by the Committee as representatives
of various Member constituencies .
At the June , 1984 Board of Trustees Meeting the Board approved
the strategic direction of the organization as well as
eleven specific goals.
These goals, primarily in the service
area, were adopted with the understanding that the level
and quality of existing services and programming would
continue.
Following that meeting task forces examined
operating plans to meet each goal .
The following report lists the goal, suggested methods
to achieve the goal and the cost implications as recommended
by the Strategic Planning Committee. An operating budget
for each year through 1989 and a discussion of the cost
implications follows the goal section.

�-2-

Goal:

To add a fifth purpose to the Council of Michigan
Foundations statement of purpose:
"To increase private and community foundation and
corporate grantmaking resources in the state of
Michigan"

Suggested Methods:
Private Foundations
1.

Form committee of private foundation donors who
would advise on how to proceed with project, seeking
donor to chair the committee who would work with
his/her peers.

2.

Seek private foundation donor in each geographical
area (using CMF Trustees and Members) who would
provide leadership in their area. Such an individual
might target likely prospects over a several year
period.

3.

Cooperate with Michigan Bar Association and Michigan
Bankers Association as well as other associations
to be identified to inform their members about the
benefits and how to create a private foundation.
Activities might include CMF course offering on
the subject as part of Associations regular conference
schedule.

4.

Circulate "How to Create a Private Foundation"
brochure throughout the state.

Community Foundations
1.

Assist local communities in formation of community
foundation on request or assist in merger of two
or more community foundations.

2.

Because the state is fairly saturated with community
foundations (other than the Upper Peninsula) the
emphasis of this purpose would be on providing
assistance to increase the resources available to
each community f oundation.

Corporate Grantmaking
1.

Document existing corporate grantmaking activity
in the state of Michigan.

2.

Recruit business leaders of all size corporations
to discuss with their peers the benefits of corporate
giving.

state .

4.

Work with Michigan State Chamber of Commerce and
local Chambers to increase the number and size of
corporate giving programs.

facilities and related costs for on-going Trustee
approved program.
For example -- staff, rent, telephone and publication
expenses of The Michigan Scene .

2.

which are of a temporary nature and may be funded by
one or more members.
Such activities would include studies, such as that
undertaken on the payout, legislative history, and
office automation project .

Financial Plan Assumptions
1.

Administrative expenses will grow with inflation
and small addition of direct expenses associated
with increased membership per year.
Increase
shall amount to 10% for first year of plan and 6%
thereafter.

added during 1985-86.

2.

Annual Conference fees shall cover all expenses plus
a contribution to overhead expenses to be determined
annually by the Board of Trustees.

Cost Implications
OPERATING BUDGET
Human Resources
The Strategic Planning Committee considered
to provide the human resources necessary to
the recommended goals and methods including
staff person with CMF Committees; volunteer
loaned executive from CMF Member.

three options
implement
an additional
help and

The Strategic Planning Committee recommends that an
additional staff person be retained during 1985-86.
Currently the CMF staff includes three full-time persons
and a free-lance editor.
If a staff person is retained
there would be a shifting of responsibilities within
the current staff, however the following new functions
would be undertaken:
-Expand services to corporate grantmakers
(workshops~ manuals, special need forums)
-Community Foundations
(Assemble operating manual, identify technical
resources)
-Coordinate increased giving purposes
(Work with donors, corporate CEO's, Associations)
-Coordinate major membership drive
(Personal contact with largest 100 corporations in
state and 100 largest foundations not currently
members; Mail campaign with local phone call followup for foundations less than $1 million)
As usual~ CMF Committee would provide ideas, direction
and receive timely progress reports.
Cost Implications: Compensation &amp; Benefits

$25,000

Occupancy
Currently CMF is housed in 600 square feet in an old
firehouse presently used as a non-profit center. Annual
rent is $2,000.
Unfortunately there is no additional
space in the building and CMF is extremely cramped for
file space (one staff member in 9 x 9 room with copier;
five files 7 etc.)
As part of the Strategic Plan it is
wise for CMF to plan to increase its space to 1,000 1,200 square feet.
(Discussions are currently underway
with two local CMF Members to consolidate space~ but
the specifics are not known at this time.)
Cost Implications:

$4,000

�-3Publications &amp; Printing
The operating buaget is based on the assumption that
The Michigan Scene will no longer be a specialized
project, but part of CMF's operating budget, a Information
Systems Committee recommendation.
The cost is budgeted
at $12,000 ($6,000-printing; $6,000 free-lance editor).
Other printing would be in association with CMF projects:
CMF Annual Report; resource material; workbooks.
CMF
is extremely fortunate ' to have the assistance ' of Robert
E. Hencey, Director of Communications, W.K. Kellogg
Foundation, who has designed conference materials and
miscellaneous brochures in recent years.
Ideally this
will continue, but if this volunteer talent is not
available, costs will increase substantially.
Cost Implications:

TMS
Other

$12,000
$ 3,425 (over 2 years)

SPECIAL PROJECTS
Computer/Word Processing
CMF has engaged Price Waterhouse to assess computer/word
processing needs of the organization and to recommend
appropriate software.
Such equipment is needed for numerous
functions -- directory, statistics, survey, accounting,
membership records, etc. as has been and will be delineated.
Until the Price Waterhouse report is received the exact
costs will not be known but for planning purposes $20,000
will include equipment, software and assistance in loading
data.
$20,000

Cost Implications:

Information
It is anticipated that the Michigan Bell Grantsmanship
Seminar Series will continue.
Like all special projects,
it will only be undertaken on approval of the Board.
Cost Implications:

1985-86

$10,000

�Section III
Revenue Potential
A.

Increase Membership
The Strategic Planning Committee recommends an
aggressive membership campaign be undertaken·· during
1985-86 . New member revenues in recent years have
amounted to $3,000-$4,000 annually.
The Committee
has reviewed potential members lists from foundations,
corporations and banks and ascertains a level of
$5,000-$6,000 for each of the next four years .

B.

Adjust Contribution Scale
The major source of revenue will come from an
adjustment in the contribution scale.
Two preliminary
scales will be introduced at the Board of Trustees
meeting for discussion which will include the following
factors:
-Major change for corporate giving programs
(currently $225]year to reflect major increase
in corporate services)
-Major change for banks (currently $225/year
reflecting their corporate interest in giving
- Continued small fee for small foundations to
gain their interest and commitment
- Continue to base schedule on reasonable % of
grants weighted by size of foundation
-Comparison of other grantmaking associations
-Value of CMF purposes and services

C. Solicit Additional Contributions
In recent years more than 20 Members have made
additional contributions ranging in size from
$50 - $4,000 .
It is anticipated that this practice
will continue in light of Member)s commitment to
the purposes of the organization.

�-2-

D.

Special Purpose Grants
Contributions ~ill be sought for board approved projects
of short duration which will not reoccur.
Note: A use of all four strategies is in order.
The Council on Foundations supports a $4.2 million
budget with use of membership contributions, Program
Development Fund and special project fund drives.
Independent Sector uses membership contributions
and special project fund drives.
Other Regional
Associations also use a package approach with the
large foundarions and corporations taking a proportionate
share of the load recognizing their commitment to
the field of philanthropy.

�1985-86 Revenue Needs
Analysis
$54,620 in additional revenue must be received in 198586 over that budgeted/received in 1984 -85 if the Strategic
Planning Committee recommendations are to be implemented.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES

Ted L. Johnson
Bylaw Revisions

l. Proposed: Change the bylaws, Article VI, Section 5, Board of
Trustees Nomination and Election, to reflect fall annual conference date and consequent Annual Members Meeting.
(See attached
date changes commencing the nominating process July 15th instead
of October 15th.)
Reasoning : The 11th and 12th Annual Conferences have been
held in the fall.
The Board of Trustees has approved fall
dates for the 13th - 15th Annual Confere nce. The Annual
Members Meeting is held at the same time as the Annual Conference.
The proposed change was not made until now, to
allow a "test" of the fall date which appears to be a
permanent part of CMF programming. Consideration was given
to a generic form of "3, 2, and 1 months before," however
specific dates will allow for clearer interpretation.
If this bylaw revision is passed the current classes of
trustees (1985, 1986 and 1987) would serve until the fall
of each year in place of the spring.
2. Proposed: Change Article VII, Section 2 Fiscal Year and
Annual Meeting to include June as a possible month for the
Annual Meeting of the Board of Trustees.
Reasoning:
Currently the meeting is called to be in April
or May. With the change in Conference dates board meetings
are now in fall (November), winter (January, February) and
spring.
It would enhance CMF operations to have that meeting
in June, allowing better spacing between meetings.

Membership Eligibility
Proposed: That the current CMF Membership Eligibility statement (attached) - second paragraph - be revised to read as
follows :
~n addition to the regular membership categories of private

dnd community foundations, banks and corporate giving programs,
a grantmaking organization classified by the Internal Revenue
Service as a 501 (c) (3) organization, may qualify for membership if during the three years immediately preceding the
organization's application for membership, the following
conditions pertain:
1. The organization makes annual grants to charitable
organizations in excess of $50,000.00.
2. At least 60% of the organization's time, activity
and budget is committed to charitable grantmaking.

�3. Charitable grants to several organizations or
individuals representing a diversity of programs
and purposes, comprise at least 50% of the
organization's annual expenditures and disbursements.
4. The organization agrees not to use the fact of
its Council membership or mailing lists, meetings
or other functions of the Council of Michigan
Foundations to solicit donations.
The remaining portions of the statement would remain
the same.
V.

Committee Activity
-Peter M. Wege has volunteered to host a fall membership
luncheon at the University Club, Grand Rapids. The
guest list includes private foundation and corporate
grantmakers.
-The Committee continues to consider changes in the
contribution formula which might attract foundations/
trusts now administered by bank trust departments.
Impact of bank holding companies needs to be considered.
-Corporate contacts best made one on one. Committee
members and trustees will be asked to make contact
in next few months.
-Committee encourages CMF Members to use Annual Conference
and legislative changes as membership "interest points"
during next three months.

�COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS
Membership Eligibility

CMF Bylaws Article IV.

Membership Eligibility.

Any charitable organization, foundation or trust a principal function of which is
the making of charitable grants and which either has its principal office in the
State of Michigan or makes substantial grants for charitable purposes in Michigan;
any corporation which makes substantial grants for charitable purposes in Michigan;
and any bank exercising trust functions and any trust company which administers
charitable funds, trust or foundations making in the aggregate substantial grants
for charitable purposes in Michigan shall be eligible for membership.
Proposed Considerations Ordinarily Used by the Membership Committee and Board of
Trustees in Determining Membership. ·
A grantmaking organization classified by the Internal Revenue Service as a 501 (c) (3)
organization, and outside of the regular membership categories of private and community
foundations , banks, and corporate giving programs will normally be considered for
mernhership if the following conditions apply to it:
1.
2.
3.

Organization normally makes annual grants in excess of $50,000.
A significant percentage of the organization's time , activity, and budget
is committed to charitable grantmaking.
The organization normally agrees not to use the fact of its Council membership or mailing lists, meetings or other functions of the Council of Michigan
foundations to solicit donations.

If these conditions exist , the applicant will be considered for admission and will
be admitted to membership if the Membership Committee and Board of Trustees conclude
upon all of the facts and circumstances that :
1.
2.

3.

The services offered by CMF would be of substantial help to the applicant
_ln its grantmaking function .
Not admitting it to the privileges of membership and to participation in
the services of CMF would result in a meaningful loss to the field of
philanthropy .
The desire to make best use of its grantmaking function is, as the time of
application, and is likely to continue to be thereafter, for the applicant
the almost exclusive reason for seeking and holding membership.

Materials and Information to be Submitted in Support of an Application for Membership .
l.
2.
3.
4.

An audited statement, the agency 's Form 990 and other federal returns, and other
documentation of its status under the Internal Revenue Code and state law;
A statement of the nature of the grants program identifying, if possible, the
grantees, the dollar amount of grants, both individually and in the aggregate;
A statement of the specific ways in which the Council services are thought by
the agency to be of use to it;
A statement of the percentage of total employee and office time and percentage
of total annual expenditures committed to grantmaking, sources of funding, fund
raising methods, and other data evidencing the relationship of its grant

function to all other activities;
5.

Such special information as the Membership Committee and/or Board of Trustees
believes useful in individual cases .

BOARD OF TRUSTEES

W. Calvin Patterson, III
Information Systems Committee Report

CMF Cooperative Ventures
From time to time CMF receives requests to cooperate with publishing
projects for the benefit of the "philanthropic sector." In order
to better respond to these requests the Committee proposes that
the following criteria be adopted:
-Project must have impact on purposes of CMF, primarily
the "efficiency and effectiveness of the philanthropic
network."
-Project must be considered a direct or indirect service
to CMF Members.
-Primary responsibility (staff time) of the project must
be with other sponsoring organizations.
-Other sponsors must be respected, board based entities
within the state.
-Publishing effort must have statewide appeal.
-All cost implications to CMF must be thoroughly
explored. No CMF operating budget contributions
will be made.
Michigan Nonprofit Management Manual
The Information Systems Committee proposes that CMF cooperate with
the Accounting Aid Society of Metropolitan Detroit, Inc. to publish
a Michigan Nonprofit Management Manual.
(Concept paper attached).
CMF's responsibility to the project would be as follows:
-Review the proposed content and final draft to ensure
a grantor's perspective.
-Provide guidance on production, promotion and statewide
distribution matters.
-Assist in making suggestions for potential initial funders
($8,000 one time grant).

�The Committee believes that the project meets the above criteria.
There is statewide recognition that the management manual is a good
idea and that the market will support the venture. For CMF it would
be a service to Members as they could provide interested grant
applicants with management problems a resource guide. There are
no direct cost implications to CMF other than a few hours (less
than five) of staff time.
Michigan Bell Grantsmanship Seminar Series
The six seminars were attended by more than 1,100 individuals.
They were very well received by all groups as indicated by the
evaluations received at each site.
(Copies available on request.)
CMF is seeking financial support from Michigan Bell Telephone
Company in the amount of $6,000 for another series of six seminars
consistent with prior Board approval.
Directory, Edition IV
The Committee requested and received a report from the Michigan
League for Human Services (copublishers with CMF) on promotion
efforts. While sales are slightly ahead of Edition III it was felt
that other major promotion efforts would be necessary to sell the
4,000 copies. CMF (Bob Hencey and Barbara Getz) agreed to design
a new promotional brochure to be released in September. The MLHS
will process the mailing and will investigate ways to better plan
distribution dates.
The Directory Update will be issed in August free of charge to all
purchasers as of September 30, 1984. After October 1 there will
be a modest charge.
Sales revenue to CMF is on schedule.
Other distribution sources (United Ways and bookstores) were discussed. Judy Carty, Dearborn Library, will investigate possible
sales within libraries.
Directory, Edition V
The Committee accepted the staff recommendation that publication
of Edition V be scheduled for March, 1986, leaving a three year
time span between editions. Consequently the following activity
would take place:
'
January, 1985 May 15, 1985
December, 1985March, 1986

Information Systems Committee approve
publishing plan
Research commence
Copy to Printer
Release Date

There are three reasons for not publishing the fifth edition
in the two year time span that had originally been envisioned:

�-Edition IV financial considerations.
dicate that 4,000 copies will be sold within three
years at the current rate but not within two years.
Edition III time span = 3 years.
-CMF is evaluating its need for word processing/computer
equipment.
Ideally the research function would be inhouse giving greater flexibility to other research
projects.
-Staff has had preliminary conversations with the Foundation
Center and other Regional Associations publishing
directories almost the feasibility of using one soft-ware
package that would allow for compatibility and cross
referencing.
The Michigan Scene
The Committee received the TMS evaluation report which will
be presented to the Board of Trustees as part of the 1985-86
operating budget. The Committee was very pleased with the
review. As indicated at the last Board meeting the costs
associated with TMS continue to be part of the special purpose
information gran~or 1984-85.
The Committee agreed with the review that the current size is
good.
The editor is incorporating several of the suggestions
in the next issue to be released July, 1984.
Annual Report Writing Service
CMF (Bob Hencey) is assisting the Winship Memorial Scholarship
Foundation in the publication of their first annual report. The
example will be used with other foundations and corporations to
illustrate the low cost of such a report.

COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS
Legislative Statement
Background
In 1977 the Co~~cil of Michigan Foundation (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.
CMF has worked with Member foundations, the Co uncil on Foundations and other Regional
Associations to brin g about changes in the mandatory payout to a flat five percent
and a reduction in the excise tax for non-opera ting private foundations .
The Government Relations Committee has surveyed the CMF Me mbers on their legislative
interests and priorities on a timely basis . There continues to be a concensus that
this is the time for foundations to continue working to make th emse lves and their
accomplishments known to Congres s and other appropriate g o vernme nt representatives .
In 1980 CMF launched a " Developing Good Will Program" to assist in this information
effort.
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
the following statement was approved May 10, 1983 .
High Priority Legislative Issues
1.

Change the 20% limitation on gifts to a non-operating private foundation
to 50% .
Under exis ting law, general l y , the amount deductible by an individual
taxpayer for contributions to non - operating private foundations cannot
exceed 20% of his contribution base (which , in most cases , is his adjusted
gross income ). On the other hand , an indivi dual taxpayer can deduct up to
50% of his contribution base for gifts to public charity .

Status :

2.

Limit on gift o f c ash increased fr om 20 % to 30% .
Limit on gift o f a p?reciated property remains at 20% .

Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer to a private foundation on
certain capital gain property .
Under existing law , generally , individua l taxpayers canno t make a gift
of an appreciated capital asset to a non- operatin g private foundation
and receive a deduction for the full value of the gift . The amoun t of
the gift must be reduce d by 40% of the amou nt of the appreciation . On
the other hand , a gift ·of an appre ciated capical asse t to a public
charity entit les a taxpayer to a deduction for the full amoun t given.

�-2Status:

3.

Contributions of appreciated property may be deducted
at fair market value for publicly traded stock if the
gift is less than 10% of the outstanding stock of a company.

Make the five year carry-forward on excess charitable contributions by
individuals and corporations applicable to such contributions to nonoperating private foundations.

Status:

Passed into law.

4.

Establish a small grant rule, which would allow grants of under $25,000
to be free of expenditure responsibility.

5.

Seek relief from the first level penalty tax for unwillful or inadvertent
mistakes . Some foundation managers and advisors honestly make a mistake
without malice-of-forethought.
They are severely penalized and some
lawyers suggest relief from the first level penalty.

Status:

6.

Authority was granted for the Secretary of the Treasury
to abate first-tier penalty taxes (except for self-dealing)
if the violation was due to reasonable cause &amp; is corrected.

Place a limitation on who is a disqualified person.

Status:

Lineal descendants of a disqualified persons who are considered members of the individual's family and, therefore,
disqualified persons, are limited to the individual's
children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren and their
spouses.
Substantial contributors to a foundation will not retain
that status if, over a 10-year period, they make 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 .

7.

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.

Status:

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.

8.

Support public reporting for foundations, beyond the reports required by
law, and provide technical assistance for those foundations seeking to
Assist ·in distribution efforts.
print an annual report or guidelines.

9.

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

10.

Support relaxation of the public support test for community foundations .

�-3Other Legislative Priorities
1.

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

2.

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 .

Status:

3.

Not specifically included, however in a related matter
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.

Support the creation of new foundations and encourage the further study by
the Council on Foundations of the reasons and laws inhibiting the creation
and growth of foundations.
Such an examination should consider how to meet
increasin g charitable needs, the effect of any legislative or regulatory
changes on existing foundations and public policy implications and concern s.
In further consideration of the issue CMF examine alternative provision s of the
law and the ramifications of such proposals which would allow for the creation
of new private foundations . One alternative amon g others that might be
suggested in such an examination would be that excess business holdings require ments would not app ly if t he foundation were to meet specified criteria to
protect the public interest.
Support seeking legislation giving the IRS authority to grant , upon showing
of necessity , an extension of the divestiture period.

Status:

IRS may extend divestiture period for five years for past 1969 foundations, if they show good faith and file a divestiture plan.
No exemption from present rules fo r pre-1969
foundations.

Support the right of foundations seeking relief to present their case directly
to Congress until full examination of ~ther alternatives has taken place .
4.

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.

5.

Require one penalty tax at the time of the infraction, rather than increas e
the tax with each year .

CMF Activity
1.

Regularly communicate with elected officials on federal, state and loca l
level about foundation activities and concerns.

2.

Encourage member foundations to report grants and activity to government
officials .

3.

Establish mechanisms to assit Member foundations to report their grants.

4.

Continue discussions with Michigan Atto rney General's Office regar ding
community and privat e foundation concerns.

�Notes to Financial Statement
March 31, 1984

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
classified for accounting and reporting purposes into fund groups. Funds
restricted for specially funded projects are distringuished from General
Operating Funds.
Both the General Operating Fund and the Special Projects 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 related Schedule of Special Projects Funds, report the activity
detail by fund groups, resulting in the impact on the Fund Balances for
each fund.
Revenues received and expense 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 9eriod.
c. Capital Expenditures
The Council capitalizes all expenditure for furniture, equipment and
leasehold improvements. Furniture and equipment are Depreciated on
the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Leasehold
improvements are amortized 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 deoreciated.

                    <text>ACCOUNTING AID SOCIETY OF METROPOLITAN DETROIT
MICHIGAN NONPROFIT MANAGEMENT MANUAL
CONCEPT PAPER

Hundreds of valuable and needed nonprofit organizations in the
State of Michigan could benefit from (1) paid staff experienced in business,
administration , planning, marketing, and fund raising, (2) strong, visible
broad-based boards ; and (~) ready access to management resources. Frequently
the leaders of developing nonprofits are not aware of their legal responsibilities such as government registrations, licenses, and reporting requirements.
Similarly, their knowledge of good management practices is minimal or inadequate.
As a result, financial and human resources are not used efficiently , and
organizational activity is diverted from productive goal achievement. The
ability of the nonprofit to function, and the survival of the organization itself , may be jeopardized.
Although there are numerous management publications for nonprofits
on the market, none are written exclusively for Michigan nonprofits. Furthermore, their cost is generally prohibitive.
The Michigan Nonprofit Management Manual: The Accounting Aid Society of
Metropolitan Detroit (AAS) proposes to develop a practical reference manua l
for developing nonprofits which will promot€ compliance, accountability,
efficiency, and improved use of human and financial resources.
The proposed manual will be written by a team of professionals including AAS
staff and a management services consultant from one of the major public accounting firms.
It will be 30-50 pages, in a loose-leaf manuscript format. Over a
five-year period, AAS will update the content as appropriate and provide additional inserts to owners of the manual. Purchase price, including updates, will
~ approximately $20.00.
Contents:

The proposed topics are listed below.

Legal, regulatory and reporting requirements

Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF): The Michigan Nonprofit Management Manual
will reinforce CMF's recent series of seminars , "Finding and Stretching Dollars
for Nonprofits," cosponsored with Michigan Bell Telephone Company and the Michigan
League for Human Services. Moreover, the manual will reach a greater diversity
of, and a larger number of nonprofits across the state.
AAS proposes that the manual be developed in cooperation with CMF,
which would (1) review the proposed content and final draft to ensure a
grantor's perspective , (2) provide guidance on production , promotion and statewide distribution matters, and (3) assist in securing initial funding.
Michigan League for Human Services (MLHS) : MLHS has expressed interest in
assisting AAS in the development, promotion, production and distribution of
the manua l.
Production:
Close supervision of production by AAS will be necessary to ensure
a quality product. outside professional assistance will also be utilized.
Promotion and Distribution:
The manual is expected to be ready for distribution
in the fall of 1984. AAS's promotion channels include a client mailing list
of 2,000 nonprofits and individuals, direct contact with more than 250 nonprofits
annually, and established working relationships with many clearinghouse, regional,
and state-wide umbrella organizations. State-wide promotion and distribution
of the manual will be achieved by AAS directly . and by informal or formal
agreements with selected umbrella organizations, such as the Michigan League
for Human Services, and the Michigan Council for the Arts. AAS will also
explore distribution of the promotional flyer by the Michigan Department of
Commerce - Corporations and Securities Bureau to organizations applying for
nonprofit incorporation status.
Funding: Foundation support will be sought for Phase 1 and 2, development,
promotion and production. Sales are expected to provide revenue for periodic
updates, distribution, and future editions, if appropriate .
Conclusion: The Michigan Nonprofit Management Manual will be a valuable
reference, particularly for staff, boards, and volunteers of developing organizations . In itself, the manual will promote improved management practices and
efficient operations. Combined with seminars, such as the Michigan Bell-CMFMLHS series or AAS's education and training program, its application will be
even more significant. State-wide distribution of the manual will reach a
large number of nonprofits, many ·of which have a serious need for help.

Mr. Hudson reported on his plans for the committee process.
He indicated that
the Hudson-webber Foundation was prepared to make a grant to the Council of Michigan
Foundations of up to $10,000 to retain the services of Touche Ross &amp; Co. to facilitate
the process . Mr. Hudson explained that the CMF Board, Committee, Members and staff
would be doing most of the work~ however Touche Ross &amp; Co. would be heloful in that
they had already designed a planning workbook to be used by CMF. Mr. Douglas McCracken
will be the principal contact at Touche Ross &amp; Co ..
Mr. Hudson reported that the Committee wants to complete the Strategic Plan
for presentation to the CMF Members at the next Annual Members Meeting November,
1984.
New Business
Mrs. Riecker asked Mrs. Johnson to explain the proposed bylaw change which would
allow for a more orderly budget process .
It is proposed that the budqet presentation
be moved from the first meeting of the new fiscal year to the January meeting before
the close of a current fiscal year.
Mrs. Johnson noted that there is some sentiment
to changing the CMF fiscal year end to December 31, but that issue would be considered
as part of the Strategic Plan and for now adding the words "or June" in the bylaws
would allow for better management. Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously
carried, it was
RESOLVED that Article VII, Section 2, of the Bylaws be amended to read as follows:
"The fiscal year of the corporation shall be April 1 through March 31, and the
Annual Meeting of the Board for the election or appointment of officers and the
transaction of any other business shall be held during the month of April, May
or June each year."
Judith S. Hooker, Chair, 11th Annual Conference reported that the conference
would have a record attendance, over 400 participants.
In response to questions
as to what she attributed the success of the conference she indicated that the
Conference theme, "Foundations and Corporations New Roles In Shaping Michigan's
Economy", the timing of the meeting and the new hotel complex were all factors.
Mrs. Hooker indicated that for the first time a Host Committee had been appointed .
Sue Blandford, Trustee, Grand Rapids Foundation, has chaired the Committee, which
has planned several tours, two receptions and entertainment.
Mrs. Riecker thanked Mrs. Hooker for her outstanding contribution to CMF.
Mrs. Riecker announced that Herbert H. Dow, President, Herbert H. &amp; Grace A.
Dow Foundation, had accepted the chairmanship of the 12th Annual Conference to
be held November 7-9, 1984 in Flint at the Hyatt Regency Hotel .
She also announced
that William S. White had agreed to serve as Host Committee Chairman.

Mrs. Riecker reminded the Board Members that she would be introducing each member
at the Annual Members Meeting, following the board meeting.
The Executive Committee
will meet January 18, 1984 and the Board of Trustees will meet March 7/8, 1984
in Detroit at the Hotel Pontchartrain. The Annual Board of Trustees meeting will
be June 14/15, 1984 in Traverse City.
There being no further business to come before the board, the meeting was

RESIGNATIONS, TERMINATIONS AND DISCHARGE

1.
In the event an employee plans to resign, advance notice is
expected; i.e., at least two weeks for hourly personnel and four
weeks for salaried personnel.
Should it be found necessary to terminate employment
because of lack of work or the employee's inability to do the
job successfully, an employee will be given advance notice;
i.e., two weeks for hourly and four weeks for salaried
personnel, or the equivalent in severance pay. Neither advance
notice nor severance pay will be granted if the employee is
discharged for dishonesty or an infraction of the Council of
Michigan Foundations' rules or policies. The severanc e pay
provisions are applicable only to employees who have complete d
their probationary period.
All employees whose service is terminated for any reason
will be paid all earned vacation.
Any vacation or other termination pay shall not extend the
effective date of termination beyond the last day worked.
2. An EXIT INTERVIEW with the departing employee shall be
conducted by the employee's supervisor.
a. Departing employees should be encouraged to give any
suggestions they may have for improving employment
conditions.
b. The exit interview can be an emotional time for both
parties involved. To insure that all points are covered,
and that the departing employee will have a written record
of what was actually said, it is important to have a
memorandum prepared in advance. See Appendix 2,
Termination of Employment Checklist.

TIME

A.

HOURS OF WORK
The daily working hours of the office of the Council of Michigan
Foundations are 9:00 a.m. - 5:00p.m. Monday through Friday.

B.

OVERTIME
Overtime work is sometimes necessary to dispose of heavy work loads or to
complete an urgent task. All overtime work must be authorized by the
Executive Director. The following statements apply only to hourly paid
employee s:
1. Employees, other than salaried employees, will be paid time and
one-half for all approved time in excess of eight hours per day or
forty hours per week . By law, overtime must be paid even if is only
15 minutes "to get this letter in the mail tonight".
2. During the week in which an employee receives holiday pay, the
number of holiday hours for which the employee is paid will be
considered as hours "actually worked" in determining eligibility for
overtime payment for that week.

3.

In the event an employee works on a holiday, he/she will receive
their regular pay plus time and one-half for the hours worked .

C.

PAYROLL RECORDS

A record must be maintained of all hours worked by employees who are not
salaried employees, as defined by employment regulations .
1. Generally, a person must have a executive, supervisory or sales
position to qualify as a salaried person .
2.

Time slips or cards should show the following information:

TIME
ABSENCES &amp; PERSONAL APPOINTMENTS

D.

1. Everyone's job is an important one and we depend upon everyone being
present each day at the scheduled starting time. It is recognized that
sometimes there will be a good reason why employees will be late to work or
unable to be present. On those occasions, employees are requested to call
their office in advance of their starting time so that we their work can be
reassigned to others. Of course, the Council of Michigan Foundations
cannot tolerate habitual tardiness or absences. In such instances an
employee will be "docked" in pay accordingly, and in an extreme case
employment may be terminated.
2. In cases of very bad weather, only those hourly employees who come to
work will be paid for the time worked. Salaried employees hold positions
that are defined by law, and they are paid regardless of how many hours
they work.
An exception to the above would be if the office had to be closed
temporarily because of fire, explosion, power failure in mid-winter, or
weather so bad that ALL commerce stopped. In such a case, all hourly
employees would be paid their normal pay because their place of employment
was closed to them.

3.

CMF recognizes that an employee may be unable to arrange an important
personal appointment outside of working hours. Such an absence will be
allowed, without pay, if it has been agreed to in advance by one's
supervisor.

VACATIONS
It is the policy of the Council of Michigan Foundations to grant vacations
and holidays with pay to provide qualifying employees with periods for rest
and recreation in recognition of services performed.
1.

Vacation Allowance
Full time employees who are on the payroll for at least six months as
of April 1 of any year will be eligible for a vacation for that
"vacation year" {April 1- March 31). The length of the vacation will
depend upon the amount of service with the Council of Michigan
Foundations as of April 1 each year, according to the following
schedule:
Six months to one year service
One year to three years service
Three years to five years service
Five years or more service

2.

One week vacation
Two weeks vacation
Three weeks vacation
Four weeks vacation

Eligibility
a. Vacation benefits under this plan apply to all full-time employees
and part-time employees normally scheduled to work at least 30 hours
per week.
b. Part-time employees normally scheduled to work less than 30 hours
per week and temporary employees are not eligible for paid vacation
benefits.
c. The vacation year is defined as a twelve-month period beginning
April 1. To be eligible for vacation with pay, a new, permanent
employee must have at least six months service prior to April 1.
d. Vacations must be taken during the ensuing "vacation year" {April 1
-March 31) after which they are earned and cannot be carried over
from year to year.
e. With special permission, a new employee with more than three but
less than six months of service as of April 1 may be permitted to take
off up to one week of vacation time at no pay.
f. Holidays, Leave of Absence, Illness, Funeral Leave occurring during
vacation:
1. If a designated holiday is observed during an employee's
vacation period, the employee will be eligible for an additional
time off with pay equal to the holiday time off for which the
employee is eligible

E. Vacations - Eligibility

(continued)

2. An employee's vacation allowance for a vacation year will be
reduced by one-twelfth for each full month of unpaid leave of
absence during the previouson year.
An employee's vacation allowance for a vacation year will not
be reduced by any unpaid leave of absence of less than one month
nor paid leave of absence.
An employee entering active military service or commencing a
leave of absence of six months will receive vacation pay for
unused earned vacation allowance and accrued vacation allowance
since the last April 1 date.

3. Employees taking an extended leave of absence are expected to
use their earned vacation prior to their last working day.
However, where circumstances warrant, and with the approval of
the Executive Director, the employee may be requested to forego
such earned vacation. If the employee agrees, the employee will
be paid for such earned, unused vacation.

4. An employee will not receive additional vacation time off due
to personal illness or disability or a death in the immediate
family occurring while on vacation.

3.

Vacation Scheduling
a. Vacations will be scheduled by the Executive Director with due
consideration given to staffing requirements, employees' length of
service and employee preferences, in the order listed. Employees are
notified of the scheduled starting date of vacations not less than
thirty days in advance, except where individual employee circumstances
preclude such notice.
b. Vacations must be taken during the vacation year beginning April
following the year in which they were earned.
Vacations may be taken over the vacation year end, provided they
commence in the vacation year in which due.
Vacations are intended to provide a period of rest and relaxation;
consequently, vacation may not be waived to draw double pay, nor may
unused vacation be accumulated from one year to the next.
c. Vacations should normally be taken in units of at least one week.
An employee may, however, take one week of his/her vacation allowance
in separate days subject to the Executive Director's approval.

Terminating Employees
a. In all cases, a terminating employee will receive pay in lieu of
any unused vacation allowance earned for the most recent vacation year
beginning April 1.
b. Additionally, a terminating employee will receive pay in lieu of
vacation allowance accrued during the current vacation year, provided
the termination was due to one of the following reasons:
1. Resignation with notice
2. Release of the employee
3. Retirement
4. Death of employee
Accrued vacation allowance for the current vacation year is
calculated on the basis of one-twelfth of the employee's annual
vacation allowance for each fUll month of employment between the most
recent April 1 and the date of termination.
c. A terminating employee will not receive pay in lieu of vacation
allowance accrued during the current vacation year in the event the
employee:

such time off may be granted without pay, subject to staffing needs of the
Council of Michigan Foundations.
4. If a designated holiday is observed during an employee's vacation
period, the employee will be given an extra day of paid vacation.
5. If an employee is absent on the work day before or after a holiday

treated as a paid sick day if there are unused sick days under the sick
leave plan. No income is lost for the employee in such circumstances.
6. If an employee is required to work on a scheduled holiday, pay will be
time and one-half for the hours worked, plus regular daily pay.

individual may personally petition to be excused from jury duty if doing so
would cause a hardship on his or her family.

absence from work due to the death of a spouse or child, and three
days' pay in the case of a brother, sister, parent or spouse's parent.

such employees may be allowed a maximum of four hours' pay to attend
the funeral of other relatives or friends.
