and information, CM F seeks to encourage and furnish the
means for such exchanges.

Membership in the Council currently stands at 103 organizations - including 81 private foundations, 13 community foundations, 5 banks serving foundations, and 4
corporate giving offices. Nearly one half of CMF's private
foundation members have assets of less than $1 million,

$400,000. CMF's membership accounts for approximately
90% of all foundation assets in the state.

grantees and the interested public.
The Michigan Scene - a periodic tabloid addressed to
the special issues and concerns of Michigan grantmakers.

report, to preparing a news release, to reporting grants.

�SECTION II:
SURVEY OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATION PHILANTHROPY
What Is a Private Foundation?
A private foundation is a nongovernmental, nonprofit organization, with funds and program managed by its own trustees or directors,
and established to aid social, educational, charitable, religious, or other activities serving the common welfare, primarily through the
making of grants. Corporate and community foundations and charitable trusts are included. A charitable trust is a trust set up for the
benefit of the public, usually setting out a defined charitable purpose for an undetermined number of beneficiaries.
What Is Not a Private Foundation?
Excluded are organizations which bear the name "foundation" but whose primary purposes are other than the awarding of grants; for
example, making general appeals to the public for funds; acting as trade associations for industrial or other special groups; or which are
restricted by charter solely to aiding one or several named institutions; or which function as endowments set up for special purposes
within colleges , churches, or other organizations and are governed by the trustees of the parent institution.
How Many Foundations Are In Michigan?
What Is Their As et Value and How Much Do They Grant to Charity?
There are an estimated 26 ,000 foundations in the United States, with 831 of them known to be situated in the State of Michigan .
These 83 1 foundations had an asset value in 1972* of $2,408,866,000 and made grants in that year of $120,417,000. Table I, compiled by the Foundation Center, gives a breakdown of these figures:

It is interesting to note that almost 67% of all Michigan foundations have assets of under $200,000. The great bulk of the assets held
and grants made are by the 97 foundations having assets of over $1 million. A further breakdown of the assets and expenditures for
those foundations follows in Table II .

* The tax year which for each foundation began in 1972. Many foundations have tax or fiscal years beginning July 1, September 1,
etc. Thus the year of study was 1972-73 for which many tax returns were not due to the IRS until as late as May , 1974.
**Expenditures include disbursements of all kinds-for grants, for programs operated by the foundation, if any, and for administration.

�Which Are The Largest Foundations In The State?
In the United States, 38 foundations have assets over $100 million. Five of these are of Michigan origin, including the largest ofal1
U.S. foundations , The Ford Foundation, which now is headquartered in New York City. (See Table IV.)

What Is a Community Foundation?
Community foundations are characterized by multiple sources of funding from many donors . Expenditures primarily benefit a limited
geographical area. The governing body of a community foundation generally represents broad community interests.
Often small private foundations look to the community foundations in their areas for advice and coordination in their grant-making
activities , and in recent years many small private foundations have turned over their assets to community foundations. In so doing ,
the private foundation may retain its identity of name , but avoid the costs and constraints of private foundation status. The community foundations are of growing importance not only as professional grant-making organizations, but as flexible means for administering many different kinds of charitable funds for the benefit of local comm unities.
One of the very first community foundations in the entire nation was founded in Michigan in the early 1920's. However , its trustees
adhered to a philosophy of "receiving and administering funds bequeathed to it" without actively pursuing the development of endowments and co rpus monies. Since the Tax Reform Act of 1969, it has been superseded by a new organization . Otherwise , with two
notable exceptions, Michigan has not been in the forefront in community foundation development. The exceptions are the Kalamazoo
and Grand Rapids Foundations which rank I Oth and 18th nationally in size. Six Michigan community foundations have assets of over
$1 million and make grants of at least $500,000 annually. (See Table VI.)

What Is a Corporate Foundation?
Corporate foundations are classified as private foundations under the tax law, but are closely tied to the parent company which created them. Ordinarily company officers serve as trustees. Sometimes annual grants are equal to or exceed assets , although a few company-sponsored foundations have substantial endowments. It is not uncommon for a corporate or a company-sponsored foundation
to assume the responsibility for the parent company's corporate giving in cities in which offices, production or service facilities , or
retail or distribution outlets are located. There are nine Michigan company-sponsored foundations having assets of over $1 million
and/or making grants of at least $500,000 annually. (See Table VII.)

Where Does the Foundation Money Go In Michigan?
Who Benefits?
Foundations are characterized bv both the flexibility and diversity of their grant-making activities. Another characteristic is that requests made to foundations vastly exceed their funding capabilities, thus forcing their trustees to define specific programmatic and
geographic areas in which requests will be considered, with the automatic declination of grant requests outside the prescribed areas .
A study has been made of the grant-making patterns of 54 foundations which accounted for over 80 percent of the dollar amount of
all grants made in Michigan by Michigan foundations in 1972**. Since the analysis is based upon only one year's grants , the figures
may not necessarily be repr~ntative of the continuing pattern of giving by Michigan foundations generally nor by any particular
foundation. They do 11elp illustrate , however , the necessity for potential grantees carefully doing their homework in arriving at the
proper decisions as to which foundations are more likely to give favorable considerations to specific requests.
Programmatically , the $46 ,225,356 granted to support Michigan educational , health and social welfare programs by these 54 foundations in 1972-73 was divided as follows:
38.0%
$17,563,349

�The table on pages 62-66 details both the dollar and percentage amounts for each of the 54 foundations for each of the six programmatic areas.
It is interesting to note th:lt Education with $ 17,563,349 and 38.0% of grants and Social Welfare with $ 15 ,436,378 and 33 .4%, each
received more grants than all the other four categories combined. Analysis of these expenditures indi cates the concerns of private foun dations for the problems of minorities and other needy segments of today's society, as well as their recognition of the need for restructuring and strengthening the programs of the social service agencies in both urban and rural Michigan.
Twenty of the 54 Michigan foundations expended more money in the social welfare field in Michigan during 1972-73 than in any of
the other five programmatic areas, while Education was the principal focus of the grants of 19 foundations. For eight of the foundations the principal focus was Health, while the Humanities and Religion each received the principal interest of four foundations.
In analyzing the data there are no significant findings as to the effect size or geographic location may have on emphasis Michigan foundations place upon these six programmatic areas.
During the year of this study ( 1972-7 3) 6 1 grants by non-Michigan foundations to Michigan institutions and agencies totaling
530,222,724 were also analyzed and showed the following results:

These figures are undoubtedly atypical , in that they included a substantial payment by the Ford Foundation on a multi-million dollar
commitment to the llenry Ford Hospital in Detroit.
How Much Money Goes to Private Non-Governmental Organizations and
How Much Money Goes to Public Government Institutions?
Much has been written in recent years about the necessity of maintaining the pluralistic system which has been so much the hallmark
of our American way of life. Foundations play a vital role in helping to strengthen the private sector with the great bulk of their
grants being directed to non-government organizations. Analysis of over 80 percent of the dollar vo lum e of grant s by Michigan foundations to Michigan institutions in 1972-73 indicates that 533,423,680 or 72.3% were made to non-government organizations with
512,80 l ,676 or 27 .7"f going to governmental institutions, such as our state supported colleges and universities.
Further analysis of the grants indicates a tendency for the smaller foundations to give proportionately more of their grants to private
non-governmental agencies than for the larger foundations. as illustrated by the following:

CANCELLATIONS

No refunds should be made for cancellations after a pre-determined
pre- confe rence cut-off date t o be set each year by the Conference

Planni ng Committee .

If a registration is cancelled before that da te ,

write a l etter to the c ancelling r eg istra nt stating that a refund
check wi l l be s ent shortly by the Executive Director.
SHARED REGISTRATION

There will be no s ha red registrations; i . e. , use of one registra tion
by one or more parties of the same or different foundations , will

not be permitted .
PARTIAL REGISTRATION

Full registrations are to be encouraged .
Partial reg ist rat ion will
be allowed, but the fee basis should be to the advantage of the full
registrant. For example:

Conference i n charging me als f or guests .
It is not uncommon for a
registrant to a sk , at the Conference , or in prior correspondence, for
a guest meal ticket for a spouse or assoc iate . Care must be taken not
to abuse this policy, in order to avoid the partial registration fee.
For example , guest fees charged for the 1976 co n fe r ence were :

Mr. Gilbert Hudson
Vice President and
Executive Director
Webber Foundations
1206 Woodward Avenue
Detroit . MI 48236

Dear Gil :
I have delayed this letter far longer than I should have, hoping that some thing would happen that would not make it necessary to write it. The result
is that I now need to write it more urgently than ever .
work has changed so drastically over the last year and one - half that I
just don ' t have the time to serve effectively as a Trustee of the Council
of Michigan Foundations . I continue to share the interests of the Council
and support its goals, but I ' m not doing the kind of job for it that I think
needs to be done. Reluctantly then , Gil , please accept my resignation as a
Trustee effective at the next meeting of the Board .

My

With a copy of this letter , I am returning materials to Dorothy which should
repose in the Secretary ' s Office .
Yours very truly,

CC :

DAJohnson

Introduction of Steering Committee and Officers
Mr. Hudson introduced the Steering Committee (Trustees) of
the Council of Michigan Foundations, noting that these persons
were elected at previous annual conferences, or at special meetings
of the Steering Committee, in compliance with the By-Laws of
the Conference of Michigan Foundations. The officers, elected by
the Steering Committee at its annual meeting in April, 1975, were
introduced:
Gilbert Hudson, Chairman; Howard D . Kalleward,
Vice Chairman; Dorothy A. Johnson, Secretary; and Robert Risselade,
Treasurer.
Secretary's Report on Notice of Meeting and Representation
Mrs. Johnson reported that seventy-seven notices of the annual
meeting were sent to members, as of record January 23, (copy
attached.) Thirty-two member organizations are represented at
this meeting, constituting a quorum .
Chairman's Report
Mr . Hudson explained that the conferees at the 1974 Conference
voted unanimously in favor of the Steering Committee's proposal that,
when the Conference of Michigan Foundations attained 50 financial
sponsors for two consecutive years, the organization would incorporate

�as a 50 l (c) (3) organization as described in Section 509 (a) of the
Code. This was reaffirmed at the 1975 Conference.
At the 1 975 Conference, Leonard White , then Chairman of the
Conference of Michigan Foundations , reported that there were 56 sponsors for the year just concluded , and that the Steering Committee
had voted unanimously that Articles of Incorporation and By- Laws
be structured for approval as soon as 50 sponsors were obtained
in 1 975. Th is report was accepted by the members present.
During 1975, Articles and By- Laws were developed with considerable input from legal advisors and Steering Committee members.
These Artic l es and By- Laws were presented to the September 16th
meeting of the Steering Committee , and were approved as amended.
A. Articles of Incorporation
Mr. Hudson stated that Leonard White , John Paynter and Gilbert
Hudson were designated by the Steering Committee as Incorporators
for purposes of filing Articles of Incorporation of the Council of
Michigan Foundations as a Michigan non- profit corporation. The
Steering Committee authorized Miles Jaffe on September 16 , 1975, to
file the Articles in Lansing . The Articles were filed on November
2, 1 975 , and as of that date the Conference of Michigan Foundations
formally became the COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS.
Mr . Hudson asked for questions on the Articles .
Some discussion
as to problems of incorporation without a "President " were answered
by Leonard White .
He stated that the Chairman acts as a president,
and that CMF Trustee and legal counsel, Miles Jaffe, suggested this
provision did not need to be in the by - laws per se , but could be
handled either by one or a succession of resolutions of the Board of
Trustees .
Mr . Hudson t h en ordered a copy of the Artic l es appended
to the Minutes of this meeting for al l purposes .

B . Approval of By- Laws
Mr . Hudson reported that the By- Laws have been approved by
the Steering Committee (Board of Trustees), and have been in use
since the Commit t ee ' s meeting of September 16, 1975. The Committee
believes the By- Laws are in compliance with all current regulations
governing non-profit corporations.
Questions from the f l oor were entertained.
Upon motion duly made, supported and unanimously carried , it

was
RESOLVED that the By- Laws of the COUNCIL OF MIC HIGAN FOUNDATIONS
be adopted in the form circulated at the meeting.
Mr. Hudson then ordered a copy of the By- Laws appended to the
Minutes of this meeting for all purposes.

�C.

501(c)(3) and 509(a) Status

Mr. Hudson stated that the Board of Trustees has applied for
501(c)(3) (tax-exempt) and 509(a) (not a private foundatio n )
status for the Council, and expects to know the results of that
application by the annual meeting of the Board of Trustees.

D.

Closing Remarks

Mr. Hudson stated that inasmuch as the Members have accepted
the Articles of I n corporation and adopted the By-Laws, the conversion
of the informal gathering of the Conference of Michigan Foundations
to the Council of Uichigan Foundaions, a non-profit corporation
organized under the laws of the State of Michigan, is now completed.

The Council of Michigan Foundations exists to
serve its members. CMF is an association of
Michigan grantmakers: private and community
foundations, banks serving foundations and
charitable trusts, and corporations with giving
programs . CMF is a non-profit membership
organization which provides a wide range of
services and activities for its members. Founded in
1972 on the premise that philanthropy is more
effective when grantmakers have the opportunity
for continuing education, communication and
information , CMF seeks to encourage and furnish
the means for such exchanges.
Membership in the Council currently stands at 93
organizat ions - including 72 private foundations,
12 community foundations, five banks serving
foundations, and four corporate giving offices.
Nearly one half of CMF's private foundation
members have assets of less than $1 million, and
one-third of the membership retain assets of less
than $400,000. It is estimated that CMF's total
membership accounts for approximately 85% of all
foundation assets in the state.
