NOTE K: RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In July 2006, the FASB Issued Financial interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes- An
interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 {FIN 48), which is a change In accounting for income taxes. FIN 48
specifies how tax benefits for uncertain tax positions are to be measured and recognized in financial statements;
requires certain disclosures of uncertain tax matters; specifies how reserves for uncertain tax positions should
be classified on the statement of financial position; and provides transition and Interim period guidance, among
other provisions.
FIN 48 was initially effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, but the effective date has been
deferred twice by FASB Staff Positions (FSP). FSP FIN 48-3 deferred the effective date for certain nonpubllo
entitles, Including nonprofit entitles, until years beginning after December 15, 2008. Management is currently
evaluating the Impact of FIN 48, but does not anticipate the adoption of FIN 48 to have a material impact on its
financial position, change In net assets, and cash flows.

generally accepted accounting principles, such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of
the organization's financial statements that Is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the
organization's Internal control. We consider the deficiency described as 2009~1 in the accompanying schedule of
findings and questioned costs to be a significant deficiency in Internal control over financial reporting.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of slgnlf1cant deficiencies, that results in more than a

Our consideration of Internal centro! over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph of this section and would not necessarily Identify all deficiencies In Internal control that might be
significant deficiencies and, accordingly, would no! necessarily disclose all significant deficiencies that are also
considered to be material weaknesses. We believe that the significant deficiency described In the schedule of
findings and questioned costs as finding 2009~1 is a material weakness.

�Compliance and Other Mailers
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether Michigan Nonprofit Association's financial statements
are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of Its compliance with certain provisions of laws,
regulations, contracts and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect
on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those
provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of
our tests disclosed an Instance of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under
Government Auditing Standards and which is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and
ques!loned costs as finding 2009-2.
The Association's responses to the findings Identified In our audit are described In the accompanying schedule of
findings and questioned costs. We did not audit the Association's responses and, accordingly, we express no
opinion on them.
This report Is Intended solely for the Information and use of management. the Board of Directors, others within

�REPORT ON COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO EACH

IN ACCORDANCE WITH OMB CIRCULAR A-133

To the Board of Directors

We have audited the compliance of Michigan No'norofit As•,oci;l

We conducted
with auditing standards generally accepted In the United
States of
to financial audits contained in Government Audlllng Standards, Issued
by the
States; and OM B Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments,
and
standards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain
about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred
to above that could
a direct and material effect on a major federal program occurred. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence about Michigan Nonprofit Association's compliance with those requirements
and performing such other procedures, as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of Michigan
Nonprofit Association's compliance with those requirements.
In our opinion, Michigan Nonprofit Association complied, in all material respects, with the requirements referred to
above that are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2009.
Internal Control Over Compliance
The management of Michigan Nonprofit Association Is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective
internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to
federal programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered Michigan Nonprofit Association's Internal
control over compliance with the requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal
program In order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance,
but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance.
Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of Michigan Nonprorlt Association's Internal control
over compliance.

Identified in an Audit, emphasizes that management Is responsible for establishing, maintaining, and monitoring
Internal controls, and for the fair presentation In the financial statements of financial position, results of
operations, and cash flows (when applicable), Including the notes to financial statements, In conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles. Responsibility for the financial statements of the Organization rests with
the Organization's management. The preparation of financial statements In accordance with GMP requires
Internal controls over both (1) recording, processing, and summarizing accounting data (i.e., maintaining Internal
accounting records), and (2) reporting government-wide and fund financial statements, Including the related note
disclosures (I.e., external financial reporting). The auditor cannot be a part of Internal controls.

Effect: Accounting Is an essential function of the Association. The Association may have greater risk to this
function being performed Improperly if the related policies and procedures are not documented. The Association
may have greater risk with fixed assets If a fixed asset policy is not adopted. Also, due to the Association not
developing a fraud risk management policy t11at would include a monitoring program It is unable to assess the
Association's vulnerabilities to fraudulent activity and whether any of those exposures could result In material
misstatement of financial statements. By not having a business continuation plan In place, the Association has no
formal plan In place if critical business processes were interrupted.
Recommendation: We recommend that the Association adopt and Implement an accounting procedures manual
which will describe and explain accounting duties. We also recommend adoption of a fixed asset policy which
would define a capitalization threshold and methods for acquiring and disposing of fixed assets. We further
recommend the Association develop and adopt a fraud risk management policy which would Include policies and
procedures on ways for management to prevent, detect and deter fraudulent activities. An investment policy should
also be drafted and adopted by the Association.
Corrective Action Response: The Association will work to create and approve all the necessary policies and
procedures to assist the Association to operate more effectively and efficiently.

�To the Board of Directors
Michigan Nonprofit Association
Lansing, Michigan
We have audited the financial statements of Michigan Nonprofit Association for the year ended June 30, 2009, and
have Issued our report thereon dated November _ , 2009. Professional standards require that we provide you
with information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing standards, Government Aud/1/ng
Standards, and OMB Circular A-133, as well as certain information related to the
scope and timing of
our audit. We have communicated such Information in our letter to you dated
2009. Professional
standards also require that we communicate to you the following Information

value measurement. SFAS 157 does not require any new
elinnin,ltes inconsistencies In guidance found In various prior

•

I Accounting Standards No. 159 (SFAS 159), Th&amp; Fair Value Option for
Financial
and Financial Liabilities- Including an Amendment to FASB Statement No. 115, which
allows the Association to irrevocably elect fair value as a measurement altribute for certain financial
assets and financial llabililles with changes in fair value recognized in the change in net assets. This
statement also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons
between organizations that choose different measurement altrlbutes for similar types of assets and
liabilities. The Association has not elected fair value as a measurement attribute for certain financial
assets and flnancialllabllllles.

We noted no transacllons entered into by the Association during the year for which there Is a lack of authorltallve
guidance or consensus. There are no significant transactions that have been recognized In the financial
statements In a different period than when the transacllon occurred.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on
management's knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about future events.
Certain accounting esllmates are parllcularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements
and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ slgn!ficanlly from those expected. The
most sensitive estimates affecting the financial statements were:
•

The allocation of functional expenses between program and supporllng services for the current period is
based on actual expenses as well as management's esllmatlon of lime spent by employees on the
respective services. We evaluated the key factors as assumptions used to develop the allocation of
expenses In determining that It Is reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

�•

Management's estimate of depreciation expense for the current period is based on an estimate of the
useful lives of the fixed assets. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the useful
lives for the fixed assets In determining thalli Is reasonable In relation to the financial statements taken as a
whole.

Difficullles Encountered In Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties In dealing with management In performing and completing our audit.

Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements Identified during the audit,
other than those that are trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. Management
has corrected all such misstatements. The following material misstatements detected as a result of audit
procedures were corrected by management: beginning net assets and accrued liabilities.

Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this leiter, professional standards define a disagreement with management as a financial
accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to
the financial statements or the auditor's report. We are pleased to report that no
arose
during the course of our audit.

Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from
representation letter dated November _ _, 2009.

Re:

Potential Nonprofit Center Space Plan

Date:

November 16,2009

After a thorough and exhaustive search of potential properties for the "Michigan Nonprofit
Center" space concept, staff and partner organizations have narrowed the choices for the Lansing
space to the attached proposal from the Gillespie Group.
As the MNA members of the Ad Hoc Committee, it is our recommendation that the board
empower the staff to negotiate with the Gillespie Group, tluough the contracted brokerage
services of CBRE to provide a final offer to MNA as the major lease holder in the Marshall
Street Armory space.
Please find a draft resolution attached for the Executive Committee's consideration.

Re:

Letter of Interest for a group of Michigan nonproflls to lease space
In the Marshall Street Armory, Lansing, Michigan

Dear Jason:
Pursuant to our showings and conversations with the above user. the following is a letter of
interest for this collection of non profits to lease space in the Marshall Street Armory, Lansing,
Michigan. The terms and conditions that are being explored by them are as follows:
Landlord responses to the proposal highlighted in RED: Revised
Premises:

Between 22,000 and 25,000 square feet in the Armory building.
More or less space may be required after detail space planning.
The Revised Plan is set at 24,500 square feet; and we can increase
or decrease pursuant to the Tenant's needs.

Lease Commencement:

Occupancy and Lease Commencement to occur at some point
within the first quarter of 2010. The estimated lease
commencement date is Fall. 201 0. Landlord is currently working
on rezoning the property, environmental conditions review, and
due diligence for the various economic incentives that may be
available from the City, State, and Federal Governments. Our
preliminary review on this due diligence has been met with
optimism and with positive feedback that such incentives can be
obtained in a timely fashion.

Lease Term:

Please provide your required term. If an alternative length of
lease creates an economic incentive for the tenant, please
propose such. A 15 year term is proposed.

Rental Rate:

Please provide your most aggressive rental rate for this user. Also
include any concessions that you are willing to give. First year
rental rate of $15.90 per square foot. Full service including utilities
and janitorial. Rent to increase 4.5% each year thereafter through
the 101h lease year. The rental rate for the final five years shall be
equal to that of the J0 1h lease year. The rental rate is contingent

�upon Landlord obtaining certain economic Incentives and
obtaining more precise construction costs.
Rent Abatement:

Tenant shall occupy !he premises free of rental charges for the
inilial3 (three) months of !he lease term. Occupancy shall be
based on the date the landlord turns the space over to the
tenant with its work substantially completed.

Services:

This user prefers a full service lease rate inclusive of all janitorial
and utilities service. Agreed

Tenant Improvement
Allowance:

II is expected that all improvements to the space shall be at
Landlord's cost and, in addition, Landlord shall ensure the systems
of the building are in good working condition (HV AC, electrical,
roof, etc.). Please use the plan that has been completed for
assessing this deal. The space will be provided to Tenant pursuant
to an agreeable floor plan between Tenant and Landlord in turn
key condition, excluding furniture and equipment. Tenant
understands that the building is a possible historic renovation and
therefore certain exterior and interior features such as brick,
doorways, and other historic features may be restored to preserve
the character of the building. Landlord and Tenant shall agree to
build out, including level of finishes, prior to lease signing.

Maintenance:

Landlord will be responsible for maintaining all common areas,
structural components, building mechanical, outer walls, and
roof. Agreed

Access:

Tenant's employees will have access to the premises twenty-four
(24) hours per day, seven (7) days per week. Agreed

Sign age:

Please provide an explanation of allowable exterior signage for
this property. Signage opportunities are available and Tenant shall
be allowed signage, as allowed by local code/ordinance, on the
exterior of the building as well as signage on all interior directory
signage. All signage to be a Tenant's sole cost and expense.

Option:

Tenant shall have two (2) five (5) year options to renew. Rental
rate for each option shall be that last rental paid in the last month
of the original term or first option term as the case maybe. Tenant
must exercise this option in writing to Landlord one hundred eighty
(180) days prior to lease expiration or expiration of the first option
term as the case may be. Option periods shall be increased in
accordance with the previous year's rental rate plus any increase
in the Consumers Price Index, annually.

�Expansion Rights:

The Tenant would like to know if it would be allowed expansion
rights during the term defined in your proposal. The expectation is
that other nonprofit entities will have an interest in joining this
group and the desire is to ensure, as best as possible, space can
be available in the same building for these additional users.
Agreed, and Landlord fully understands the possibility of other
similar users looking to locate adjacent to the Tenant. The
building and adjoining property can accommodate such
expansion opportunities.

Contraction Rights:

If this proposal includes a term longer than five (5) years, a
contraction option will need to be included. Is this concept
acceptable and how much space will be allowed to be
contracted. Not acceptable.

Additional Consideration: One of the agencies has a lease that does not expire until July 31,
2012. Given they cannot pay double rent, please consider
avenues in your proposal that might allow them to move in with
the other groups while maintaining the current lease. Their
allocation of the space is approximately 4,000 SF. This agency
shall have a first right of refusal for space at the front of the
building or in the lower level. Upon Landlord notifying Tenant that
it has an offer to lease the space from an alternate prospect, the
agency shall have 10 (ten) business days to exercise its first right of
refusal, In the event that the agency does not respond within the
required timeframe or declines to take the space, Landlord shall
have the right to execute a lease with the alternate prospect.
Brokerage Fee:

Landlord agrees to pay to CB Richard Ellis/Martin per the Real
Estate leasing fee of 5% for the first 5 years and 4% for any
remaining terms. Said fee shall be paid upon execution of the
lease document. Due to the aggressive rental rate associated
with this deal, Landlord agrees to pay CBRE/Martin a fee of 4% for
the first five years, 3% for years 6-10, and 2% for years 11-15.

The foregoing proposal is valid until October 23,2009.
This letter is intended solely as a preliminary expression of general intentions and is to be used
for discussion purposes only. The parties intend that neither shall have any contractual
obligations to the other with respect to the matters referred herein unless and until a
definitive agreement has been fully executed and delivered by the parties. The parties
agree that this letter is not intended to create any agreement or obligation by either party to
negotiate a definitive lease agreement and imposes no duty whatsoever on either party to
continue negotiations, including without limitation any obligation to negotiate in good faith
or in any way other than at arm's length. Prior to delivery of a definitive executed
agreement, and without any liability to the other party, either party may ( 1) propose different

�terms from those summarized herein, (2) enter into negotiations with other parties and/or (3)
unilaterally terminate all negotiations with the other party hereto.

Following your review, please feel free to call should you have any questions or comments,
we look forward to receiving your response.
Sincerely,
CB RICHARD ELLIS/MARTIN

Memo
To:

Michigan Nonprofit Association Board of Directors

From: Diana V. Rodriguez Algra, Executive Director
Date: September I, 2009
Re:

VCM Activities Update

Below you will find some key highlights of our work since the last time we repmted to the Board of
Directors.
Update on the Volunteer Impact, Retention and Expansion Grant (VIRE) from the HandsOn
Network (liON)
We reported last time that the VCMIMNA had been awarded a $50,000 VIRE Grant from the
HON to support the work of our five Stmt-Up sites and to explore the possibility of two new
communities coming on board. Six of the seven sites have been awarded funds as of June I,
2009. We continue our outreach to the United Way ofWashtenaw County and hope that this fall
will see the submission of their mini application.
In late June 2009 we were notified that we could submit an application to the HON for Round
Two funding. We sought input from our statt-up sites and with their suppmt completed our
submission on August 21, 2009. The time line at the national level has us hearing back from the
HON sometime in mid to late October 2009. If funded our application would allow us to continue
to suppott the work of our start-up sites.
This quarter we spend time hosting training and technical assistance calls with all of our six stmtup sites on both financial and programmatic requirements of the VIRE grant from the HON. We
want to especially thank both Amanda Schafer and Tina Bruce from the MNA staff for assisting
us with tllis training.
VCMVISTAProgram Update
The Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM) received an AmeriCmps*VISTA grant Ji-0111
the Cmporation for National and Commmlity Service in September of2009. The fu·st five members of
the VCM*VISTA Corps were placed in start- up and expansion volunteer centers tln·oughout Michigan
in December of2009. h1less than one year, the VCM*VISTA members have been makh1g huge strides
in promoting volunteerism; creating and strengtherling stmctures or systems to recnrit, train and retain
volunteers and in introducing youth and baby boomers to a life style of service and civic engagement.
Along with laying the ground work for the long-term sustainability of their program locally, the VISTA
members have ah-eady been capturing results fi·om their effmts including:
I. $65,063 wmth of volunteer hours leveraged by VCM* VISTAs:
(As a result ofVCM AmeriCmps*VISTA efforts 3,213 hours ofvolunteeringwas served in the
VISTAs host site connnunities. The hourly rate developed by Independent Sector for 2008 for
volunteer hours is $20.25)
2. $19,000 ofin-Kind funds leveraged by the VCM*VISTAs

�3. 17 new community partnerships were established by the VCM*VISTAs
4. 44 orientations or trainings for volunteers were facilitated/presented by the VCM*VISTAs
The VCM *VISTA program cmTently has a total of nine VISTA members serving in communities and
expects to continue to add VJSTA sites throughout the year. Our next renewal application will be due in
early October 2009.
VCM has also brought on board Sandra Miller, who will be serving one year with Volunteer Centers of
Michigan as the VISTA Leader. Sandra will provide training, suppmt and resources to the VCM
*VISTA members, assist with the evaluation and development of the VCM*VISTA program and work
on targeted initiatives for the Volunteer Centers of Michigan. Sandra brings a wealth of knowledge and
relevant skills to the Volunteer Leader position; having most recently setved as a VISTA member in
Wisconsin for Habitat for Humanity, prior to that Sandra worked as school teacher and counselor.
VCM Members and Volunteer Reception Centers

Earlier this year the VCM hosted a session with our network members on "Volunteer Reception
Centers during Disaster." Both Denise Hubbard and Mrutha Bottomley in our network have conducted
training both in our state ru1d regionally on how to implement them. We have been working with
Region 6 in our state to expand this work more deliberately within the region and then to strategize how
we might move tins across the state.
Region 6 is poised to setve as a model for others in our state and we have encouraged our Volunteer
Centers in the region to become more famiiiru· with how to set up the reception centers. On July 29,
2009, Region 6 held a training in Big Rapids at which both Mrutha and Detlise presented. The session
covered how to implement a Volunteer Reception Center system across Region 6 to suppmt and
enhance our region's capacity to leverage unaffiliated volunteers in an emergency. In addition it offered
an oppmtunity for agencies within each county to meet and discuss how to work more closely together.
We are happy to rep01t that the interest is increasing among our members that the MCSC is also
interested in suppmting the work of expru1ding this tool to other regions in the state. We will continue
to communicate within our network for other oppmtunities for training and ftmding as the interest
grows.
VCM Site Visits

This quruter saw our staffpruticipate in a number of sites visit to both strut-up sites and more established
centers. Our site visits give us ru1 oppmtmlity to catch up with the happenings at the local level and also
to welcome new direct01s to the network. These included:
Strut-up ru1d Expansion Visits: 11mmb Volunteer Alliance in Caro, MI; Lenawee Volunteer Center in
Tecumseh, MI; and Volunteer Muskegon in Oceana County.
Established Centets Visits included: Volunteer Muskegon; Volunteer Center of the SEMUW;
Nonprofit Network in Jackson; Volunteer Center of Greater Kalamazoo; the Greater Ottawa County
United Way Volunteer Center in Holland; and a Tti-City meeting of the Director of Saginaw, Bay and
Midland United Way Volunteer Centers.

�Statewide VISTA Member Training Proposal
The state office ofCNCS asked us to submit a proposal for the VCM to coordinate and deliver their
Annual Post-PSO Statewide Training for their VISTA members. We have been working diligently to
meet all their needs. Tllis trahling will b1ing together over 100 VISTA members from the Lower
Peninsula on September 16-17, 2009 in Ypsilanti, MI. l11is year's training will offer members eleven
different topics to choose fi'om. We look forward to working to meet the needs of both the CNCS Detroit
office and the VISTA members that attend.
National Conference on Voiunteerism and Service:
The Points of Light lnstitute/1-IandsOn Network in partnership with the Corporation for National
and Community Service held their annual conference June 21-24, 2009 in San Francisco,
California. Volunteer Centers of Michigan were well represented at the event. This year's
conference was particularly exciting due to President's Obama's signing of the Edward M.
Kennedy-Serve America Act and the resurgence of national service in greater numbers than
previous years.

Kyle reported that with the recent resignation of Amy Smitter, executive Director of
Michigan Campus Compact. and Jackie Taylor agreeing to serve as the Interim Executive
Director effective July 1, 2009, Jackie needs to step down temporarily, as a member of the
Michigan Campus and Michigan Nonprofit Association Boards.
With that in mind, the MNA Board Development Committee recommends to the MNA
Board of Directors:
"The Board Development Committee recommends that Jackie Taylor be allowed a
temporwy, excused leave of absence, from the MNA Board ofDirectors, while she
serves as the Interim Executive Director of the Michigan Campus Compact (MCC).
Furthe1; that she be allowed to return to the MNA Board ofDirectors upon

indicated that work is continuing on formalizing and coordinating a Southeast Michigan
Nonprofit Management Services Network. She rep01ied the common philosophy is that
comprehensive community-based capacity building is the best model for serving the needs
ofnonprofits in this region. For example, instead of providing a one-time nonprofit
management specific service, intetmediaries need to work together to provide a continuum
of services that suppoti all of the organizational development needs of nonprofits. Our
work will revolve around building the system, providing capacity building serves that
tackle the critical needs of nonprofit management as well as managing more customized
organizational alignment initiatives and collaborations.

President's Report

The President's rep01t, while brief, represents one of the most active periods for the organization.
Progress on Goals
As you will see by the strategic plan progress report, the organization is largely on track with
regard to the main goals. In addition:
•
•

•
•

•

Our membership numbers are solid with just over 1,100.
Capacity building is expanding into webinars, pattnered with the Cultural Alliance for
Southeast Michigan to leverage funds fi'om the Ford Foundation to engage in strategic
alliances, and working to secure a new federally funded Labor HHS grant.
The League Michigan hosted two major conferences of teachers and students focused on
service-learning, and developing the process for the four senior staff positions.
Michigan Campus Compact is in talks with the Michigan College Access Network about
a possible partnership in addition to the existing partnership fimded by the Kresge
Foundation.
The public affairs team is focused on healthcare reform and the impact on nonprofits.
With the rehu·n of Tiffany Aurora from a two-month educational leave, they are also
focused on Michigan Nonprofit Day and the unveiling of the Nonprofit Caucus Agenda,
as well as, the launch of our Complete Count Campaign to engage nonprofits in ensuring
a full and accurate count of the 2010 Census.

Challenges
The shortage of senior management staff does make work difficult, but the staff members have
all stepped up to the situation. Thanks to the leadership of Bill Liebold, we have secured a
search firm to aid us in the filling of all four senior positions (Director of Fund Development,

�Director of Public Affairs, Director of the Metro Detroit Pat1nership, and Executive Director of
Michigan Campus Compact). Our goal is still to have all these positions filled by the end of the
calendar year 2009. Once all are in place, the Senior Executive Team will work together to
develop a process for strategic plmming for the organization.
Other Items

You will be receiving bi-weekly communiques from me (Friday Notes) with more detailed
information on the work ofMNA. In addition, we have standardized our communication to
constituents with the Michigan Nonprofit News. This e-bulletin will provide you with
information on the opportunities MNA provides member and non-member organizations. Please
feel free to provide us feedback on these communication tools and let us know how we can
improve.

President and CEO's Performance Evaluation Process
Motion Referred to the MNA Board of Directors

At the conclusion of the previous performance evaluation of the CEO, MNA Board
Chair, David Price, asked that that he and Kyle look at the existing evaluation system and
determine if it provides the feedback, support and direction. Upon reflection, the current
system does provide a basic fi·amework for ensuing that the CEO complies with the basic
requirements of the CEO position, however it lacks tools to assess, guide and reward
performance around the organization's strategic goals.
The Executive Committee recommends to the MNA Board of Directors that the
Executive Committee re-examine the current process and make recommendations
for a new system for implementation for the 2010-2011 fiscal year. In the meantime,
the existing tool would be used until the replacement system is recommended,
approved and implemented.

Re:

Michigan College Access Network Proposal

Senior management of Michigan Campus Compact (MCC) and the Michigan Nonprofit
Association (MNA) recommend an investigative dialogue with the volunteer leadership of the
Michigan College Access Network (MCAN) to determine the possible development of closer
alignment of MCC.
This alignment has the potential to expand the programmatic and constituent reach for MCC and
MCAN, increase efficiency as it relates to mission and vision for student engagement and focus
on college access for low-income and first-generation students. Increasing college access and
completion rates, particularly for low-income and/or first generation college students of all ages
is the mission of the MCAN and a focus area ofMCC over the past two years. Attached you will
find a draft discussion paper with more background and an explanation of the proposed process.

MICHIGAN CAMPUS COMPACT/ MCAN STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT
DISCUSSION OF MISSION AND STRUCTURAL ALIGNMENT

�CONFIDENTIAL- DRAFT PAPER FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES ONLY
AUGUST, 2009
MICHIGAN CAMPUS COMPACT/ MCAN STRATEGIC ALIGNMENT

Proposal
Senior management of Michigan Campus Compact (MCC) and the Michigan Nonprofit
Association (MNA) recommend an investigative dialogue toward determining the possible
development of closer alignment of Michigan Campus Compact and the Michigan College
Access Network (MCAN). This alignment is to increase efficiency as it relates to mission and
vision for student engagement and focus on college access for low-income and firstgeneration students. Michigan Campus Compact has over twenty years of experience in
working with two- and four- year, public and private colleges and universities with a focus on
civic engagement, community service, service learning, and helping to build partnerships with
community-based organizations, especially through college level student engagement in
volunteer efforts. Increasing college access and completion rates, particularly for low-income
and/or first generation college students of all ages is the mission of the Michigan College
Access Network.
Michigan Campus Compact is an affiliate of the Michigan Nonprofit Association, and, as such,
MNA provides the shared services operational infrastructure for MCC and its staff. This
strengthens the capacity of MCC so that the organization can maintain and increase its focus
on its services to its college/university members/partners. Volunteer Centers of Michigan is
also an affiliate of MNA. This sister affiliation provides MCC further community-based
connections for MCC member Institutions to create college student volunteer opportunities.
In addition, the Michigan Community Service Commission is a partner with MNA which
provides even more collaborative efforts for service and volunteerism for MCC member
colleges and their students.
Michigan Campus Compact is a member of the National Compact and thus connects
nationally to over forty state campus compacts.

�Background Information re: MCAN &amp; MCAN/MCC Connections
What is Michigan College Access Network (MCANl? (Note: An information &amp; time line
summary of MCAN prepared by Brandy Johnson-Faith is included as Attachment B.)
Recommendations contained in the 2004 Cherry Commission Report included doubling the
number of college graduates in Michigan within ten years. The recommendation also urged
government, business, labor and education leaders to organize community programs to
commit to increasing local postsecondary participation. The idea for MCAN was partially
conceived through this recommendation, and in June of 2008, Michigan had the opportunity
to apply for a formula grant from the U.S. Department of Education. The College Access
Challenge Grant Program {CACGP} is to foster partnerships among federal, state, and local
governments and philanthropic organizations through matching challenge grants that are
aimed at increasing the number of low-income students who are prepared to enter and
succeed in postsecondary education. The grant was received with the stipulation that the
Governor appoint a state agency to administer the funds of $4.2 million to be received over a
two-year grant period {$2.1 million per year). Thus, Michigan College Access Network came
into being in 2008 with the grant administered by the Michigan Department of Treasury,
Student Financial Services Bureau.
First Year Summary of MCAN 2008-2009
Brandy Johnson-Faith was hired by the Governor's Office to coordinate the federal grant
under the direction of Charles Wilbur, Senior Advisor to the Governor. A working group
comprised of representatives from state agencies, non-profit organizations, higher education
institutions, community foundations, and K-12 education, and community members was
organized. {Amy Smitter, Executive Director of Michigan Campus Compact, was a member of
this group. Michelle Snitgen, Program Manager of MCC subsequently became a member, and
Jackie Taylor, Interim Executive Director of MCC also has been included in the meetings of
this Ad Hoc MCAN Steering Committee.)
MCAN supports and expands community-based college access programs through professional
development, technical assistance, advocacy and grant opportunities. These communitybased programs include examples such as the Jackson legacy Scholarship, H.O.P.E. Scholars in
lansing, Kalamazoo Promise, and Muskegon Opportunity. Community foundations, along
with the Council of Michigan Foundations, are integral partners in the strategic initiative to
increase college access for low-income and first generation students. MCAN has also
worked closely with the lumina Foundation on the "KnowHow2GO" marketing program
funded by lumina for several states. Through this MCAN connection lumina Foundation has
agreed to an in-l&lt;ind contribution to MCAN and Michigan for the use of all "KnowHow2GO"

�branding and marketing materials to promote college access. This program will be unveiled
on November 15, 2009 at a special MCAN conference that MCC will invite its member colleges
to attend.
MCAN also is a member of the National College Access Network (NCAN} which is comprised
of several states. NCAN provides opportunities for each of the state College Access Networks
to gain insights and review best practices for college access strategies and programs. Ohio
College Access Network (OCAN} and the College Foundation of North Carolina (CFNC) have
both been cited as examples that can be helpful to Michigan in its quest to increase college
access for low-income and first-generation students. Although states across the nation take
various approaches to address the college access challenge, each state has created a
successful coordinated strategy for college access services. This need to identifv and
coordinate all strategies in Michigan became the mission of MCAN. In partnership with NCAN
and the Council of Michigan Foundations. MCAN began its strategic focus on creating a
coordinated approach to college access throughout Michigan. (*Note- see Attachment Cconfidential draft ofMCAN Mission. Vision. Goal and StrategY Statements/

MCAN partnered with Edu-Guide as a consultant for the first year of MCAN's existence to
assist with the organizing process. This partnership has proved to be less than successful, and
Edu·Guide representatives have been advised that the firm will not be included in the second
year of the MCAN operation grant.
MCAN, in conjunction with the Michigan Department of Treasury, is in the process of
reviewing bids from private contractors to create a college access web portal similar to the
successful North Carolina model that allows students to access all tools necessary to plan,
apply and pay for college. This is a $1.5 million project funded by the MCAN federal grant
that will continue to be coordinated by Brandy Johnson-Faith through the Michigan
Department of Treasury.

�Challenges
Challenges relate to the following areas:
MCAN has been conceived and developed directly from the Governor's Office in response to
the national concern about raising the level of access for all, especially low-income and first
generation potential students of all ages, to attend and be successfully retained in college.
MCAN has had unique opportunities to connect with major national funding, NCAN
opportunities, Lumina Foundation in-kind support for "KnowHow2GO" marketing/branding
materials, and, in essence, unlimited access for opportunities for growth in its first year.
Maintaining and even increasing that growth, while meeting its strategic goals can be a
challenge in its second year and into the future. Sustainability is a key factor, i.e., how long
is MCAN sustainable if it is moved from this "nurtured" environment of the Governor's Office
to another organization or "out on its own?" Does moving MCAN from the Governor's
Office bring with it any political ramifications?
Alignment with the right organization where the MCAN mission is either congruent with or
can be integrated into is critical for the future sustainability of the MCAN achievements.
Those achievements are vital to college access and success for all students.
MCAN's ability to serve as a major convener (magnet) and/or leader/partner with
community-based organizations, the Council of Michigan Foundations and other
philanthropic organizations may depend on the survival of college access remaining as a
national and state priority.
Challenges include the ability of MNA to successfully add and serve another affiliate, either
on a temporary or long term basis. The 2006-2007 merger of MCC with MNA can be used as
one such experiential model that has worked. However, the challenge remains as to the
level of alignment and affiliation that will best benefit MCAN, MCC and MNA.
Levels of alignment of missions, services, strategic goals of both MCAN and MCC will need to
be determined. The type of Advisory Board that would benefit MCAN needs to be
determined. MCC has its own Board of Directors with two MCC Board Members serving on
the MNA Board. The type of MCAN advisory board and its representation on the MNA
and/or MCC Board will need to be determined.
The process of alignment of MCC and MCAN will need to be addressed so that the staff are
fully engaged and work together as partners in the aligned mission of engagement and
access. How the LEAGUE and Volunteer Centers of Michigan are included in the process may
need to be considered.

�Assessment and alignment of staffing is an area that will need to be determined at the
correct time in the alignment process. MCAN is currently staffed by Brandy Johnson-Faith
who successfully created the current structures and programs and whose experience and
guidance should play a major role in the alignment process and possibly beyond.

Opportunities
Further alignment areas with MCC and MCAN- July 2009 and in the future
Michigan Campus Compact has been involved with MCAN and its Ad Hoc Steering Committee
throughout the year-long process and has helped form the frameworl&lt; for the organization.
Prior to the Steering Committee, MCC was deeply engaged with the Administration in helping
to examine strategies to leverage resources and networks for college access and success. In
addition, MCC has been the recipient of an MCAN grant in the amount of $138,395 for a
college access grant with several MCC member colleges becoming sub-grantees. Also, as a
part of MCAN and MCC's collaborative efforts with the Michigan Department of Labor,
Economic Development and Growth (M-D LEG), MCC received a GEAR-UP grant in the amount
of $110,000 to help increase college access for low-income and underrepresented
populations. (This partnership has been very successful. Amy Smitter &amp; Michelle Snitgen
presented with Brandy Johnson-Faith at the National GEAR-UP Conference in July. Rudy
Redmond, Executive Director of M-DLEG is optimistic that additional funding will be available
during 2009-2010 and wishes to continue to partner with MCC and MCAN.)
It is important that MCAN, with its role and strategic focus to increase college access for lowincome and first-generation college students of all ages, move from the Governor's Office to a
non-political "home." The Governor's term will be completed in 2010. College access and
increasing the number of college graduates will continue to be a high priority for the State of
Michigan. In light of a change of Governors following the 2010 election, the MCAN Ad Hoc
Steering Committee and its Chair, Brenda Hunt, Executive Director of the Battle Creek
Community Foundation, have been reviewing alternative future plans for MCAN to ensure
sustainability. This review includes exploration of different organizations that could become
the "home" for MCAN during its second year of operation and into the future. The Michigan
Chamber of Commerce also was considered as an option, however, the Ad Hoc Steering
Committee determined that was not a viable option. Another alternative explored Is that
MCAN could become a totally separate 501(c)(3) entity. As a separate entity MCAN would
need to adhere to specific State timeline regulations for receiving funding. However that
avenue could still remain a future option. Michigan Nonprofit Association has become the

�"option of choice" to explore/review via a unanimous vote of the Ad Hoc Steering Committee
on July 15, 2009. (Both Jackie Taylor and Michelle Snitgen were in attendance at this
meeting.) Rationale for alignment with MCC and MNA includes:
Mission alignment/college access priority; Capacity; Fiscal Experience; statewide
presence/experience; strong leadership.
Also, in July of 2009, MCAN was encouraged by the Kresge Foundation to apply for a $1.015
million two-year grant for MCAN to work with community foundations to increase college
access. Over a two-year period $500,000 would be used to assist with a planning grant for
MCAN to become sustainable. The additional $500,000 would be used to allow the Council of
Michigan Foundations to award challenge grants to community foundations to sub-grant as
matching grants for local organizations to use to increase college access. The $15,000 would
be used for CMF to administer the grant program for two years. This application required
the designation of a fiduciary agent for the Kresge grant funds when received by MCAN.
Brandy Johnson-Faith initiated discussions with Kyle Caldwell and Jackie Taylor regarding
MNA becoming the temporary fiduciary for the Kresge grant funds. After positive discussions
with the MNA Chair David Price and Vice Chair of the Board David Eisler, the MCC Chair of the
Board Don Tuski, and MCC Interim Executive Director Jackie Taylor, Kyle Caldwell moved
forward with the approval for MNA to become the temporary fiduciary agent for the MCAN
Kresge grant. (Announcement of the award is expected in mid-September, 2009.)
Discussions with Brandy Johnson-Faith, Kyle Caldwell, Dan Thompson and Jackie Taylor have
continued. Based upon the unanimous vote of the MCAN Ad Hoc Steering Committee on July
15, discussions have centered on the consideration for MNA to become a temporary or long
term home for MCAN. This consideration also calls for further alignment with MCC and
MCAN. Either temporary or long-term alignment would mean that MNA would become the
fiduciary agent for the $2.1 million second year of the MCAN federal grant as well as the
2008-2009 carry over funds of approximately $600,000 and assume the administrative
services required to operatlonalize the monetary services of the grant.
Additional meetings have been held:
August 17 with the MCAN Steering Committee Chair, Brenda Hunt, Brandy
Johnson-Faith, Kyle Caldwell and Jackie Taylor to gain additional insights regarding
the future vision for MCAN.
August 20 with Chuck Wilbur (Governor's Office), Kyle Caldwell, Jackie Taylor,
Brandy Johnson-Faith &amp; her staff &amp; intern, to further discuss more In-depth "next
steps" re: alignment with MCC and MNA.

�All discussions have included the additional necessity for Governor Granholm to issue an
Executive Order that would lead to bipartisan/non-partisan legislation for the extenuation of
MCAN as a non-governmental entity (similar to the way that Governor Engler issued the
Executive Order to create the Michigan Community Service Commission as a separate entity
several years ago).

Benefits
Both MCC and MCAN are focused on engagement that leads to collaborative efforts to
increase all pathways for access to college; both are connected to K-16 efforts to increase
college access and success to completion for students of all ages, and particularly for low
income and first generation students. Both need the support of community-based
organizations, community foundations, federal and state grants, 1&lt;-12 education, and colleges
and universities to achieve their goals. Both are focused service organizations for colleges
and universities:
(1) MCAN with its entire focus on increasing college access through "KnowHow2GO"
marketing tools, NCAN best practices, web portal for college access, and its
collaborative efforts with programs such as the Jacl&lt;son Legacy and Muskegon
Opportunity. MCAN's "birth" directly from the Governor's Office and through Federal
grants has given it a special status that has allowed it to serve as a "magnet" to build
more collaborative efforts for grass roots &amp; community-based organizations,
community foundations, and Council of Michigan Foundations, as well as including
colleges/universities through MCC connections. Moving MCAN from the Governor's
Office can provide a more "non-political" environment in which MCAN can operate.
(2) MCC with its mission of civic engagement, community-service, and service-learning, all
of which have been proven to increase college graduation rates and strengthen
lifelong commitment to service. MCC also brings its strong connections and
experience with:
a.

National Campus Compact and Compacts throughout the nation;

b.

Numerous state &amp; federal grants already in place and its
reputation/experience with the success ofthese grants, such as the
Corporation for National &amp; Community Service, Learn &amp; Serve America,
etc.;

�c. Already having the affiliation status with MNA and its other affiliates such
as VCM, the LEAGUE (1&lt;-12 school district connections}, especially related to
service &amp; engagement}, and its experience as a collaborative partner with
MCSC;
d. MCC already has experience connecting with all nonprofits in Michigan
because of its affiliation with MNA;
e. its focus on disadvantaged youth with the Foster Care Summit and
continuing connections with the state agency(ies}, and colleges/universities
already establishing programs for these disadvantaged youth;
The mission alignment would strengthen the similarities and the mission could actually
become congruent and/or integrated which would negate any confusion about how the two
organizations were different. It could also negate any question about why a
college/university might want to belong to one or the other- rather, with the alignment of
mission of MCC and MCAN, the college/university and the community-based organizations
could all work in strengthened collaborative efforts to increase college access, completion
AND the focus on civic engagement, community service, volunteerism and service-learning.
Opportunities to align MCC and MCAN could strengthen the role of college access throughout
the state of Michigan. MCC already has over forty two-year, four-year, public and private
colleges/universities as paid members. The focus on community service, service-learning,
and civic engagement has provided numerous and varied community-based organizations as
partners for students to perform volunteer efforts. College students from MCC partner
colleges mentor hundreds of 1&lt;-12 students every year. College access could become a
significant role for the mentoring process with college students performing community
service in conjunction with both 1&lt;-12 students and the community based organizations. MCC
has a strong partnership with the Council of Michigan Foundations through its affiliation with
MNA, and MCC has support from community foundations. These connections can assist in
strengthening the role of MCAN and MCAN can strengthen the role of MCC member colleges
with the community-based organizations and community foundations. An alignment of MCC
and MCAN could create additional collaborative efforts throughout the state of Michigan for
a 1&lt;-16 continuum of education that would indeed increase the number of college graduates
in the State of Michigan.
An alignment of the missions and the two organizations could provide a pathway of
sustainability to the college access, success program and enhance the 1&lt;-16 collaborative
efforts for community service, volunteerism, service-learning, civic engagement, community-

�based collaboration AND provide a strengthened organization for the Council of Michigan
Foundations and community foundations to support.
Staffing structures
Current staffing of MCAN is one full-time administrator (Brandy Johnson-Faith) and one 20·
hour per week employee, Anna Maria Flores. Ms. Flores has been hired to assist in the
technology/media marl&lt;eting field. This is an extremely new organization based on a federal
grant awarded to the State of Michigan. As such, its staffing is limited and funded entirely by
the grant.
Current staffing of MCC is an Interim Executive Director, 3 full-time and several half-time
positions. MCC has over 20 years of experience in working with colleges/universities (public
and private and 2 &amp; 4 year) and is a membership organization that is funded through
membership dues, sponsorships for specific projects such as the Jimmy Carter Partnership
Award, the Michigan Community Service Commission, and through grants from both the
State and National levels, such as learn &amp; Serve and the Corporation for Community Service.
MCC also provides sub-grants to member colleges/universities throughout the State of
Michigan, and has received regional grants through National Campus Compact and Ohio
Campus Compact. MCC is responsible for 22 VISTA members through a grant from the
Corporation for National Community Service (CNCS) and the Volunteer Centers of Michigan is
responsible for 10 additional VISTA members. There may be an opportunity for MCC to apply
for an additional grant to assist MCAN with VISTA members to focus on college access.

Questions
What are the advantages of a short term or temporary home/alignment with MCC/MNA?
Would a temporary period of time as a "pilot" be an advantage in preparation for a longer
term alignment?
How would the MCAN Advisory Board (if one is established) connect with and be represented
on the MCC Board? On the MNA Board?
What type of process steps would need to take place for alignment of Michigan Campus
Compact and Michigan College Access Network?
Would this alignment be an advantage for MCC member colleges/universities? Or
Disadvantage? Possibilities as an advantage include:

�Gain strengthened community connections?
Gain additional college access grants?
Gain additional college/university members?
More engagement opportunities with MCAN connections?

What are the advantages to MCAN?
Related to Sustainability
Related to NCAN?
Related to future funding from State and Federal sources?
Related to membership and access to identifying additional constituencies?
Related to MCC's college/university membership?
Related to MCC's experience and affiliation with all Michigan nonprofits?
What are the advantages for MNA?
What are the benefits?
Strengthened connections throughout Michigan.
What are the risks? As with any change there are risks involved, and these include
determination of the following:
Is this an alignment or a merger?
Financial sustainability of MCAN
Alignment/affiliation with MCC and MCAN and the process can be timeconsuming and challenging for MNA, MCC and MCAN staff.
However, it must be noted that lack of addressing this alignment could lead to potential
duplication of efforts by MCAN and MCC. The alignment of MCC and MCAN missions, within
the overarching umbrella of MNA, has the potential of being beneficial to all organizations.
Their congruent and/or united missions are vital to the 1&lt;-16 access and success role as well as
to the engagement of students leading to increased retention rates. All of this is beneficial to
the State of Michigan and its goal of increasing college access and success.

�Framework of Important Elements

Should the parties determine that there is an opportunity for alignment, there will be four
important elements that should be examined as the next step in this exploratory discussion:
1. Is there mission alignment between the MNCAN initiative and Michigan Campus
Compact, and by extension, Michigan Nonprofit Association?

2. What type of governance structures will be necessary to effectively sustain this
initiative?
3. What legal/ statutory structures would be necessary to ensure the effective transition,
growth and sustainability of this work?
4. What type of assets would this initiative have and need?
5. What human capital is available to leverage toward the work of this initiative?
There are three possible models or constructs related to these four elements that could be
considered to begin the discussions. Each is laid out in detail below.

Constructs I Structures
Option A- Governor's Office
This scenario leaves the MCAN initiative within the Governor's Office with l&lt;ey support
coming directly from the Chief Executive's Office. The MCAN board would remain as
an advisory body to the Governor's Office.
Option B- New Nonprofit Corporation
This scenario creates a new 501 {c) 3 nonprofit charitable corporation with a new and
independent board of directors.
Option C- Existing Nonprofit Partnership
Partner with an existing nonprofit organization utilizing that entity's board of
directors.

�Each of these constructs have their challenges and opportunities that need to be explored.
through five key elements mentioned earlier. A draft analysis ofthe various scenarios is
provided (Attachment A) along with a timeline (Attachment B).Recommendation and
Process:
Recommendation: Senior management of Michigan Campus Compact and the Michigan
Nonprofit Association recommend an investigative dialog toward determining the possible
development of closer alignment of Michigan Campus Compact and the Michigan College
Access Network. It is further recommended that the Chair of the Michigan Nonprofit
Association Board and the Chair of the Michigan Campus Compact Board each appoint a 3member Ad Hoc Task Force to dialogue with an Ad Hoc Task Force appointed by the Chair of
the MCAN Ad Hoc Steering Committee. This Joint Committee would be charged with making
a recommendation for each respective Boards or Steering Committee regarding the
alignment of MCC and MCAN with MNA as the overarching responsible organization.

A. Membership Status- The first year of the Michigan NOW grant provided for !year of free

membership in MNA to all subawardees (nearly I 00 organizations). In the early summer of2009, we
began to see the first of these organizations come up for renewal and while we conducted a major
marketing eff01t regarding the benefits these organizations received from MNA, many of them chose not
to renew their membership. These organizations are typically smaller (under $500,000 operating budget)
and additional expenses like membership were just out of their reach. As a result of this, our current
membership retention rate is at 71% (84% if not including Michigan NOW members). Tackling the
challenge of member retention will be a primary goal for 2010. MNA's new CO!lllllunications strategy
provides a comprehensive schedule of print mail, email, and social media reminders of their membership
and benefits.
B. Membership Challenge- The Committee Membership Challenge remains underway. Each quarter,

the committee will issue a "Top 25" Jist of organizations who are potential members for the Michigan
Nonprofit Association. Our goal is to have 5 new members of the "Top 25" per quarter, with outreach to
these members being conducted by this committee and the whole MNA Board of Directors. Please review
the enclosed Top 25 list for this quarter and examine any cormections to these nonprofit organizations.
We know that in tough economic times, the ability for many organizations to sustain membership in
MNA is challenging and we appreciate any and all ideas related to the recruitment and retention of our
membership.
C. Redesigned Communication- In collaboration with the Capacity Building Team at MNA,
we have developed a comprehensive strategy to reframe the messaging ofMNA around the 12
Principles &amp; Practices for Nonprofit Excellence. This includes membership recruitment materials,
benefits and cost-savings programs, trainings, a new website and more. We have increased our use of
social media including Linked in, Twitter and the MNA blog with great success. We continuously work to
promote our opportunities and inspire online conversations about issues impacting nonprofits in
Michigan. On August 6 we launched our first issue ofMI Nonprofit News, a comprehensive e-newsletter,
bringing awareness to both MNA members and non-members about public policy, member benefits, job
postings, upcoming trainings and much more. The consolidated format has increased readership by 3
times our former e-communication tools. MNA also recently launched a new member benefit, the Media
Contact List. MNA regularly hears from members of the media who are interested in telling the stories of

�Michigan nonprofits who fit a particular profile. MNA members who join this list will learn of the
opp01tunities to tell their story.

                    <text>The LEAGUE Michigan Update
The LEAGUE Cmriculum by Learning to Give is a school and web-based system for service learning that
builds character and empowers young people to "do good" in their community, the nation, and the world.
Currently
146 schools, totaling 673 9lassrooms in the state of Michigan, including four school districts, consisting of
Jackson, Romulus, Shelby and Carson City are patiicipating in The LEAGUE.
Update
Staff
We are pleased to share that we have just hired a Program Specialist to work with The LEAGUE
Michigan. Lytm Bahena has been serving as an AmeriCorps VISTA, with us, in the Detroit office during
this past year and has been a tremendous asset, in terms ofrecmiting and training teachers and in
coordinating the entire 2009 Service and Leadership Camp. Lynn has just completed her year of service
and has joined the team as a full-time staff person to assist in growing and sustaining The LEAGUE.
Lynn's background is in project management and education.
Everyone Can Serve
In June, we pm1nered with the United Way Volunteer Center of the Eastern Upper Peninsula and the Great
Lakes Center for Youth Development to offer training in Marquette for 16 teachers and one in Sault Ste.
Marie for another 10 teachers. Both of these trainings, provided the teachers the tools they need to
integrate The LEAGUE into their classroom during the 2009-20 I 0 school year and we are excited to
continue to grow The LEAGUE footprint in the UP!
Super Servers
On July 24-26, we hosted the 2009 Setvice &amp; Leadership Camp in conjunction with Learn and Serve
Michigan for a 130 students and teachers from across the state of Michigan. The campers participated in
Challenge Day, which inspired them to be the change they wish to see in the world, stat1ing with
themselves, through compassion and service; participated in a service project that led to us feeding I 0,000
people in Michigan, the United States and Africa; took part in sessions that focused on education,
enviromnent, fundraising, povet1y, public speaking, worldwide issues and youth philanthropy; and on
Sunday provided the campers an opportunity to use every1hing they had learned throughout the weekend
to develop a plan for their school of how they are going to integrate service and service-learning during the
upcoming school year. Overall, the campers (students and teachers) left feeling energized and motivated
to make a difference in their schools and to help us grow The LEAGUE.
2009 Summer Institute
In August, we hosted the 2009 Summer Institute on Service-Learning, in partnership with Grand Valley
State University for teachers and administrators. We had roughly 30 attendees, with 3 people from The
LEAGUE Austin and The LEAGUE Atlanta. During the Institute, participants had the opportunity to do a
service-learning project out in the community, gain knowledge on community resources, such as the
United Way, Crowe Horwath and the Grand Rapids Community Foundation and hear from the premier
researcher and leader in the service-learning field Shelley Billig. Thanks to the Michigan Community
Setvice Commission, Jeanine Yard was able to nm a two day professional track that coincided with the
activities mentioned above to help administrators learn how to infuse service-learning into their schools.
The teachers had the oppm1unity to spend the last two days of the Institute developing curriculum that they
can use not only in their classroom, but that, will be added to the over I ,300 lessons on the Learning to
Give website to ensure that we continue to grow this tremendous resomce.

�Opportunities
As a result of the recovery fimds that the Corporation for National and Community Service received, we
have been able to increase the number of VISTA slots that we have from six to ten. We will have all the
positions placed by the end of the calendar year, which will allow us to continue to grow and sustain the
program within schools.
Moving Forward
The LEAGUE Michigan is currently focused on beginning the 2009-2010 school year, while focusing on
fund development and developing the 20 I 0 summer programming for teachers and students.

�Certain communications involving tax advice are privileged and not subject to disclosure to the IRS. By

Audit Procedures· General
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence suppor!lng the amounts and disclosures In the financial
statements; therefore, our audit will involve judgment about the number of transactions to be examined and the
areas to be tested. We will plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable rather than absolute assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether from (1) errors, (2}
fraudulent financial repor!lng, (3) misappropriation of assets, or (4) violations of laws or governmental
regula!lons that are attributable to the Organization or to acts by management or employees acting on behalf of
the Organization. Because the determination of abuse is subjective, Government Aud/1/ng Stanc/ards do not
expect auditors to provide reasonable assurance of detecting abuse.
Because an audit is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance and because we will not
perform a detailed examination of all transactions, there is a risk that material misstatements or noncompliance
may exist and not be detected by us. In addition, an audit Is not designed to detect immaterial misstatements or
violations of laws or governmental regulations that do not have a direct and material effect on the financial
statements or on major programs. However, we will Inform you of any material errors and any fraudulent
financial reporting or misappropriation of assets that come to our attention. We will also Inform you of any
violations of laws or governmental regulations that come to our attention, unless clearly Inconsequential. We
will include such matters In the reports required for a Single Audit. Our responsibility as auditors Is limited to the
period covered by our audit and does not extend to any later periods for which we are not engaged as auditors.
Our procedures will Include tests of documentary evidence supporting the transactions recorded in the
accounts, tests of the physical existence of Inventories, and direct confirmation of receivables and certain other
assets and liabilities by correspondence with selected funding sources, creditors, and financial Institutions. We
will also request wrUten representations from the Organization's attorneys as part of the engagement, and they
may bill the Organization for responding to this inquiry. At the conclusion of our audit, we will require certain
written representations from management about the financial statements and related matters.
Audit Procedures • Internal Control
Our audit will Include obtaining an understanding of the entity and Its environment, Including Internal control,
sufficient to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and to design the nature,
timing, and extent of further audit procedures. Tests of controls may be performed to test the effectiveness of
certain controls that we consider relevant to preventing and detecting errors and fraud that are· material to the
financial statements and to preventing and detecting misstatements resulting from Illegal acts and other
noncompliance matters that have a direct and material effect on tho financial statements. Our tests, If
performed, will be less In scope than would be necessary to render an opinion on Internal control and,
accordingly, no opinion will be expressed in our report on Internal control Issued pursuant to Government
Auditing Standards.
As required by OMB Circular A-133, we will perform tests of controls over compliance to evaluate the
effectiveness of the design and operation of controls that we consider relevant to preventing or detecting
material noncompliance with compliance requirements applicable to each major federal award program.
However, our tests will be less in scope than would be necessary to render an opinion on those controls and,
accordingly, no opinion will be expressed In our report on internal control Issued pursuant to OMB Circular A133.
An audit Is not designed to provide assurance on Internal control or to Identify significant deficiencies. However,
during the audit, we will communicate to management and those charged with governance internal control
related matters that are required to be communicated under professional standards, Government Auditing
Standards, and OMB Circular A-133.

�Audit Procedures· Compliance
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement, we will perform tests of the Michigan Nonprofit Association's compliance with applicable laws and
regulations and lhe provisions of contracts and agreements, Including grant agreements. However, the
objective of those procedures will not be to provide an opinion on overall compliance, and we will not express
such an opinion In our report on compliance issued pursuant to Government Auditing Standards.
OMB Circular A-133 requires that we also plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the auditee has complied with applicable laws and regulations and the provisions of contracts and grant
agreements applicable to major programs. Our procedures will consist of tests of transactions and other
applicable procedures described In the "OMB Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement" for the types of
compliance requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each of the Organization's major
programs. The purpose of these procedures will be to express an opinion on the Michigan Nonprofit
Association's compliance wi!h requirements applicable to each of Its major programs In our report on
compliance Issued pursuant to OMB .Circular A-133.
Engagement Administration, Fees, and Other
We understand that your employees will prepare all cash, accounts receivable, and o!her conflrma!!ons we

At the conclusion of the engagement, we will complete the appropriate sections of the Data Collection Form that

Gaffney, P.C. personnel. Furthermore, upon request, we may provide copies of selected audit documentallon lo
lhe aforementioned parties. These parties may Intend, or decide, to distribute the copies or Information

release date or for any add !tiona! period requested by the Organization. If we are aware that a federal awarding
agency, pass-through entity, or audl!eo Is contesting an audit finding, we will contact the party(les) contesting
the audit finding for guidance prior to destroying the audit documentation.

additional charge of $1,000 per additional major federal program audited.
This proposed engagement letter is to provide the Association wllh auditing services, rather than accounting
services. The cost schedule detailed on the previous page assumes that extensive journal entries to adjust the
accounting records (I.e., bookkeeping) will not be required as part of the audit process. If auditor-proposed journal
entries are required In order for the financial statements to be fairly presented In accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, we propose a per entry fee of $100. This fee will not be billed if there are less than
five (5) entries In a given year.
The fee estimate Is based on anticipated cooperation from your personnel and the assumption that unexpected
circumstances will not be encountered during the audit. If significant additional time Is necessary, we will
discuss it with you and arrive at a new fee estimate before we Incur the additional costs. Our Invoices for these
services will be rendered each month as work progresses and are payable on presentation. In accordance with
our firm policies, work may be suspended If your account becomes 60 days or more overdue and will not be
resumed until your account Is paid In full. If we elect to terminate our services for nonpayment, our engagement
will be deemed to have been completed upon wrllten notification of termination, even if we have not completed
our report. You will be obligated to compensate us for all time expended and to reimburse us for all out-ofpocket expenditures through the date of termination.
If any dispute arises in connection with the performance of our services under this agreement, or any other
services we may perform, either party may, upon written notice to the other party, request facilitated mediation.
Such mediation shall be assisted by a neutral facilitator acceptable to both parties and shall require the best
efforts of the parties to discuss with each other In good faith their respective positions and, respecting their
different Interests, to finally resolve such dispute. Facilitated mediation shall conclude within 60 days from
receipt of the written notice unless extended by mutual agreement.
In the event the aforementioned difference cannot be resolved by facilitated mediation (or the parties agree to
waive that process) then such dispute shall be settled by arbitration. Arbitration shall be administered by and
follow the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties.
Each party may disclose any facts to the other party, the facilitator, or the arbitrator, which It, in good faith,
considers necessary to resolve the difference. However, all such disclosures will be deemed In furtherance of
settlement efforts and will not be admissible In any subsequent litigation against the disclosing party. The
facilitator or the arbitrator shall not act as a witness for either party in any subsequent proceedings between the
parties. Neither the facilitator nor arbitrator shall have authority to award non-monetary or equitable relief, and
any monetary award shall not include punitive damages. An award Issued by arbitration may be confirmed by
any federal or state court of competent jurisdiction. All costs of any facilitated proceedings shall be shared
equally by both parties. If arbitration is required, all reasonable costs, of both parties, as determined by tho
arbitrator, shall be borne entirely by the non-prevailing party.

Government Audl1/ng Standards require that wo provide you with a copy of our most recent external peer review
report and any letter of comment, and any subsequent peer review reports and letters of comment received
during the period of tho contract. Our 2008 peer review and letter of comment accompanied our proposal for
audit services dated June 10, 2009.

Lansing, Michigan
We are engaged to audit the financial statements of tho Michigan Nonprofit Association for the year ended June
30, 2009. Professional standards require that we provide you with the following Information related to our audit.
We would also appreciate the opportunity to meet with you to discuss this Information further since a two-way
dialogue can provide valuable information for the audit process.
Our Responsibilities under U.S. Generally Accepted Auditing Standards and OMB Circular A-133
As stated in our engagement letter dated August 21, 2009, our responsibility, as described by professional
standards, Is to express an opinion about whether the financial statements prepared by management with your
oversight are fairly presented, In all material respects, In conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles. Our audit of the financial statements does not relieve you or management of your responsibilities.
In planning and performing our audit, we will consider the Michigan Nonprofit Association's internal control over
financial reporting In order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on
the financial statements and not to provide assurance on the Internal control over financial reporting, We will
also consider internal control over compliance with requirements that could have a direct and material effect on
a major federal program In order to determine our aud/Ung procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion
on compliance and to test and report on Internal control over compliance In accordance with OMB Circular A133.
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Michigan Nonprofit Association's financial
statements are free of material misstatement, we will perform tests of Its compliance with certain provisions of
laws, regulations, contracts, and grants, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on
the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those
provisions Is not an objective of our audit. Also In accordance with OMB Circular A-133, we will examine, on a
test basis, evidence about the Michigan Nonprofit Association's compliance with the types of compliance
requirements described in the "U.S. Office of Management and Budget {OMB) Circular A-133 Compliance
Supplement" applicable to each of Its major federal programs for the purpose of expressing an opinion on tho
Michigan Nonprofit Association's compliance with those requirements. While our audit will provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion, II will not provide a legal determination on the Michigan Nonprofit Association's compliance
with t11ose requirements.
Planned Scope and Timing of the Audit
An audit Includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures In the financial
statements; therefore, our audit wililnvolve judgment about the number of transactions to be examined and the
areas to be tested.
Our audit will Include obtaining an understanding of the Organization and its environment, including internal
control, sufficient to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and to design the
nature, liming, and extent of further audit procedures, Material misstatements may result from {1) errors, {2)
fraudulent financial reporting, {3) misappropriation of assets, or {4) violations of laws or governmental
regulations that are attributable to the entity or to acts by management or employees acting on behalf of the
Organization. We will communicate our significant findings altho conclusion of the audit.

Re:

Recommendations on Lease Agreement

As MNA's representatives to the Nonprofit Center Feasibility Ad Hoc Committee, we would like
to provide you an update on our work to determine the feasibility of establishing a Nonprofit
Center-a joint effmt to bring localnonprofits together in a single location.
The initial meetings of the entire Feasibility Committee focused on determining the potential for
a multi nonprofit facility, needs of the partners, affirmation of the commitment of existing
partners, governance and ownership structures, process for determining potential sights, and a
timeline for the overall feasibility process.
Since its creation, the Feasibility Committee has concluded the following:
•
•

•

There is great potential for the patinering organizations to save costs and expand their
work through a shared facility.
While ownership of a facility is not out of the question, the current market conditions,
financial positions of the existing partners, and lack of options presented, have influenced
all to agree that a lease or lease to own options would be the most desirable.
The search for viable properties should be placed in the hands of a professional broker.

Over the summer the four pattner organizations (United Way of Michigan, Capital Area United
Way, Capital Region Community Foundation, and MNA) have secured a broker to identify
potential sites. Since May they have met with Eric Rosekrans ofCBRE, worked with Eric to
create inquires which were sent out to local real estate owners and developers, reviewed Eric's
analysis of responses, narrowed more than seventy real estate candidates down to seven possible
sites, visited each of those seven sites, narrowed the list to just three high potential sites,
commissioned a space planner to develop a high-level space needs analysis, issued a formal
Request For Proposals to the three high potential site owners, and are now awaiting their
responses, which are expected in later this week.

�At this point in the process no ownership options are being immediately investigated, therefore
postponing any need for an owner governance structure and shifting the focus to a lease and
sublease arrangement. The committee will now need to determine which of the four partnering
organizations will serve as the lease holder. Attached you will find a recommendation
suggesting that MNA serve in this role.
Next steps:
The committee will now review the various site plans and make a final recommendation to the
MNA Board of Directors and the partnering organizations by December, 2009.
Backgl'ound

MNA has been leading an exploratory discussion to determine the potential of a multi-tenant
nonprofit space. After an extensive investigation including designing the space plan with MNA
occupying of nearly 75% proposed space, the three partnering organizations have agreed to join
in this process and have urged MNA to serve as the lease holder with each of the partnering
organizations negotiating an individual sublease.
Recommendation

The MNA representatives of the Nonprofit Center Feasibility Ad Hoc Committee recommend
that the Michigan Nonprofit Association serve as the leasing organization and negotiate the
sublease arrangements in the future space partnership.

Memo
To:

Michigan Nonprofit Association Board of Directors

From: Diana V. Rodriguez Algra, Executive Director
Date: May 28, 2009
Re:

VCM Activities Update

Below you will find some key highlights of our work since the last time we repmted to the Board of
Directors.
Update on the Volnntcer Impact, Retention and Expansion Grant (VIRE) from the HandsOn
Network (HON)
We reported last time that the VCM/MNA had been awarded a $50,000 VIRE Grant from the
HON to suppoti the work of our five Start-Up sites and to explore the possibility of two new
communities coming on board. Six of the seven sites have submitted proposals for the VIRE
dollars and we are in the final steps of getting their award letters out to them. Hopefully, the
United Way ofWashtenaw County will submit their application later this summer. Our original
five stmt-up communities will each receive $5000.00 grants and the two new sites are eligible for
grants of $6,000.00 each. The grant period for these communities will run fi·mn June I, 2009
through March 30, 20 I 0.
The newest community to join the ranks of our "start-ups" is the Char-Em United Way in
Petoskey, Michigan.
Michigan Volunteer Accord
We continue to meet on this initiative and are excited about the MCSCs willingness to step up and take
a greater lead in this work. Below you will find a summmy of the key principals that our working group
feels are critical to the Accord being able to forge ahead and make our communities stronger and able
to use volunteers in a more comprehensive way.
We believe that for volunteering to work, we need to have a comprehensive infrastructure (system)
available for every community in Michigan. That system must have the following components:
I. Referral System: The referral system must serve as the tool to connect skills and passions of
volunteers (no matter where they are) with oppmtunities that fulfill community needs. This system
should be univemally and readily available, reasonable to manage, and affordable for all (nonprofits and
volunteers). For example:

a) an online resource that allows anyone to post their interest and match up with an opportunity
b) a state pmtal that combines several existing web-based recruiting systems and shares their data with
all users.
c) a single source system like 2-1-1 that has more robust volunteer management capabilities that shares
information with other referral systems.

�2. Management System: The management system must provide resources and expeitise to nonprofits
on how to develop and sustain effective volunteer programs, including best practices to successfully
recmit, place, train, manage and monitor volunteers and the oppottunities in which they serve. This
system should be universally and readily available, and affordable for all (nonprofits and volunteers).
For example:
• local volunteer centers
• pattnerships with local employment and job retraining centers
• community colleges with University Centers that can setve as local training centers
3. Data Management System: In connection with the aforementioned systems, a data system is needed to
gather, analyze and publish data on the volunteer activities, the needs they address and the impact of their
setvice. For example:
a) Statewide database with tools to collect and analyze data on volunteer activities and nonprofit
needs down to the zip code level.
b) Online survey tools linked to existing systems that allow ready access and user input that can be
shared and analyzed.
4. Awareness and Education: Individuals and organizations involved in the Volunteer Accord must be
engaged to increase the awareness ofthe public as to the need for volunteers, the infrastructure necessaty
to suppott the volunteers and the impact of the efTotts of volunteers. For example:
a) themes and language that speaks in plain terms to the need for volunteer infinstmcture;
b) branding that provides for organizations of all types to advocate the need for volunteer infrastmcture;
c) online tools with a common bmnd that can be tagged to existing communication tools.
5. Resource Levemging: Individuals and organizations involved with the Volunteer Accord must help

develop means and strategies to levemge financial resources that adequately suppott and sustain
volunteer infi·astmcture. As we've seen in our transpottation system, when resources are not invested in
infrastructure, serious consequences can occur. For example:
a) a pool of state/national funds to expand volunteer infmstructure to evety community.
b) printed and online tools for organizations use to garner financial suppott for volunteer infrastmcture
6. Advocacy: Volunteer infinstmcture is largely misunderstood and undervalued. For years, volunteer
levemging organizations have been confi·onted with the misconception that volunteering just happens
and is fi'Ce. Individuals and organizations that suppott volunteer infi·astructure must advocate befot'C
policy makers, funders and key leaders in communities that while volunteering is a low-cost opp01tunity,
it's not a "no cost" opp01tunity. It requit'Cs investment of our time and our tt'CaSUI'C to be eftective. For
example:
a) Statewide campaign calling for universal access to volunteer infmstmcture.
b) Annual state and local events calling for and celebrating volunteer infmstmctm"C.
c) Social media tools that explain, discuss and highlight the successes and need for volunteer
infiustructure.

�Statewide VISTA Member Training Proposal
The state office ofCNCS has asked tJS to submit a proposal for the VCM to coordinate and deliver
trainings in the state for their VISTA members. Each year VISTA members are expected to attend one
additional statewide training event that takes place at least 90 days after their original PSO (Pre Service
Orientation). This oppmtunity would allow us to establish a closer working relationship with our state
Corporation office and to expand our work in the area of providing quality training around Volunteer
Management. We await feedback fi·om the State office in early June, 2009. This could mean between 2-3
such training events each year.
Com cast Cares Day
This year we were pleased to provide supp01t to Comcast with their annual "Comcast Cares Day Event."
We worked closely with them to secure nine different shelters for them to pmtner with for the Saturday
April 25 event. Their employees at four service centers in Ann Arbor, Macomb, Jackson and Sterling
Heights worked to assemble per~onal care packages for the shelter residents to use. Each site assembled
close to 300 packets for distribution to the shelter. It was a most successfl!l partner~hip and one we
would gladly entertain again in firture years.
Council for Certification in Volnnteer Administration (CCVA)
I am happy to rcp01t that I have been asked and accepted to serve on the Board of Directors of this
organization. My term of service will begin with the July 2009 Board meeting and run until 2012.
Below you will find a bricfdescription of the role the organizations plays in the field of Volunteer
Management.
The Council for CCJtification in Volunteer Administration advances the profession and practice of
volunteer resource management by:
• Articulating core competencies for the profession of volunteer administration
• Certifying individuals who demonstrate knowledge and competence in the leadership of
volunteers

• Advancing standards of ethical practice
• Promoting professional development and education
Certified in Volunteer Administration (CVA) is the only international professional certification in
the field of volunteer resources management. Originally developed by the Association for
Volunteer Administration (AVA) several decades ago, the program is now sponsored by the
Council for Certification in Volunteer Administration (CCVA). The CVA credential reflects
mastery of the knowledge required of practitioners in this field as measured through an exam and
peer assessment process.
MNA Employee Volnnteer Engagement Policy
The VCM staff was asked by the Continuous Improvement Team ofMNA to develop an employee
policy related to "employee volunteer engagement." Below you will find the policy that was drafted and
supported by senior management.
•

•

Central to MNA's mission of increasing the capacity of Michigan's nonprofits to serve, strengthen
and transform communities is the effective and meaningful engagement of volunteers to increase the
impact at the local level.
MNA employees play a key role in this, and therefore MNA supports their participation in local
efiorts that engage them in strengthening and transforming communities through their volunteer
SCJVice.

MNA will allow each employee up to eight (8) hours of paid leave per fiscal year to pmticipate in
group or individual volunteer initiatives that suppmt nonprofit organizations in Michigan.
MNA will seek to increase its own use of volunteers, and views their contributions as valuable,
working together with MNA employees to accomplish the organization's work.
At least once per year, MNA will partner with other organizations to promote a half day ofMNAsponsored service. This event will be coordinated by the VCM and will be designed and developed
by a working group ofMNA employees. Every effort will be made to have this event coincide with
one of the seasons of service calendar oppmtunities. This service activity will be in addition to the
eight hours of paid leave offered to employees.
The eight hours of annual volunteer release time must first be approved by each employee's
supervisor, and hours of service should be tracked as accurately as possible.
A working group ofMNA employees will develop a mechanism for evaluation, tracking and
recognition of our in-house Employee Volunteer Initiative.

Public Policy Committee
Meeting
June 1, 2009
Conference Call

Action Item

A. The MNA Public Policy Committee recommends that the MNA Board of
Trustees adopt the following statement and guidelines:
The Michigan Nonprofit Association opposes further cuts in state budgets
that affect the nonprofit sector. In determining the extent to which it will
engage or take action on specific proposals for cuts in the state budget, MNA
will consider the following factors:
a. The extent to which sufficient information is available to justify a
position.
b. The impact particular proposed cuts are likely to have on the broader
nonprofit community or any of its snbsectors and on the lives of the
people they serve.
c. The extent to which MNA can make nnique and credible
contributions to the debate.
In support of the nonprofit community, the above motion is meant to reaffirm the
following overarching position on the state budget (adopted by the MNA Board of
Trustees in 2007):
The Michigan Nonprofit Association urges swift action to ensure sufficient state
and federal revenue bases to avoid further budget reductions and to reinvest in
arts and culture, pre-k- 12 education, private and public higher education,
environment and natural resources, health and human services, and to support
reasonable growth over time.

Discussion Items

�A. Nonprofit Day- Erin Skene-Pratt reminded committee members that Nonprofit
Day 2009 is to be held on September 22"d at the Radisson. The agenda for the
day includes a presentation by the co-chairs of the Nonprofit Caucus, lobbying
time with House and Senate members, bullet breakout sessions on policy topics
of interest to nonprofits, and a keynote presentation by the White House Office
on Social Innovation (invited).
B. Regional Councils- Tracy Hall, co-chair of the Southeast Michigan Public
Policy Council, provided an update on the following council activities:
a. Mayoral Forum with then candidates Ken Cockrel and Dave Bing.
b. Media Roundtable on the Economic Benefits of Michigan's Nonprofit
Community.
c. Education of the new Mayor and staff.
d. lndividualmeetings with Southeast Michigan legislators.
Linda Wendt with Battle Creek Community Foundation also updated the
committee on their recent legislative breakfast in Calhoun County. More than
I 00 nonprofit and government leaders were in attendance to network and leam
about the economic benefits ofnonprofits in Calhoun County.

C. State and Federal Policy Update- Tiffany Aurora updated the committee on the
following:
a. Nonprofit Caucus- the co-chairs for the Caucus are sending a Dear
Colleague letter to encourage members of both chambers to join the
Caucus. The co-chairs are also reviewing and considering a legislative
agenda.
b. Uniform Prudent Management oflnstitutional Funds Act- In
collaboration with the Council of Michigan Foundations, MNA is working
on a revision to the Uniform Management of Institutional Funds Act. A
model act, adopted in more than 30 states, the Uniform Prudent
Management of Institutional Funds Act ( SB 411 and SB 412) passed the
Senate in March and has been referred to the House Committee on
Banking and Financial Services. It is expected that the House Committee
will hold a hearing on this bill the week of June 8th. In addition to
modemizing the current act, this bill would remove the current
requirement that organizations not spend down or accumulate money in
their endowment funds (the value of which is calculated according to
"historic dollar value"). Instead of requiring that organizations hold the
historic dollar value of their fund(s) steady and spend appreciation and
income, this bill recognizes that the current economic climate has changed
the way institutional funds should be handled for the long-term benefit of
the organization holding those funds and would allow organizations to
spend or accumulate money in their endowment funds as long as such
changes are handled "prudently" according to the mission of the
organization.

�c. IRA Charitable Rollover- Senator Byron Dorgan (D-ND) introduced the
Public Good IRA Rollover Act (S.864) April 22 to amend the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 to permanently extend the incentive, and to expand
tax-fi·ee distributions from individual retirement accounts for charitable
purposes. S.864 is the Senate companion bill to H.R.1250, which was
introduced by Representative Earl Pomeroy (D-ND) on March 2, 2009.
The Public Good IRA Rollover Act of2009 (S.864/H.R.1250) would
build on the success of the current IRA Rollover by making it permanent,
removing the current dollar limit on donations per year, making all
charities eligible to receive donations, and providing IRA owners with a
planned giving option starting at age 59Y:i ..
d. Serve America Act- President Obama signed into law the Edward M.
Kennedy Serve America Act (H.R.l388/S.277) on April 21, 2009. This
legislation authorizes programs, but does not include funding. Senate
Finance Chairman Max Baucus (D-MT) and ranking member Charles
Grassley (R-IA) sent a May 27 letter to Senate appropriators urging full
funding for the Nonprofit Capacity Grant Building Program created by the
Serve America Act.

D. Economic Benefits and Giving and Volunteering- Erin Skene-Pratt briefly
provided an overview of the attached Economic Benefits and Giving and
Volunteering reports.
E. Staff Transition- Rob Collier informed the committee that Erin Skene-Pratt will
be leaving MNA effective June 29 111 • However, Erin will still be contracting with
MNA on some policy work. Rob informed the committee that Kyle Caldwell is
searching for a replacement. The Public Policy Committee recommended that the
l'v!NA Board adopt a resolution thanking Erin for her years of service to MNA.

ichigan's nonprofit sector generates significant
economic benefits for state residents. It is both
geographically diverse, with organizations in every
county of the state, and operationally diverse. Michigan's
nonprofits can be found in every subsector of the service
economy, including a strong presence in health care, human
services, education, environment, and the arts.

M

In addition to serving as a "social safety net" for Michigan
residents, nonprofits provide vital support to the state's
economy by employing at least one in every ten Michigan
workers. While the nonprofit sector is not traditionally

Michigan nonprofi!s are a driving force in the economy. generating $108 billion each
year in economic activity.
1&gt;

Although the nonprofit sector held $179 billion
in assets and had expenditures of more than
$60 billion, the largest 6 percent of organizations held 93 percent of nonprofit assets and
were responsible for 90 percent of nonprofit
expenditures.

1&gt;

Public charities, the largest concentration of
nonprofit organizations, hold only 37 percent
of nonprofit assets and earn only 36 percent
of revenue. The majority of reporting public
charities report $250,000 or less in assets and
less than $250,000 in expenditures.

�1&gt;

1&gt;

Nonprofits generate $108 billion each year
in overall economic activity through direct
expenditures of rnore than $60 billion, which
creates additional economic effects of $48
billion.
Public charities receive approximately 80 percent of their revenue from program revenue,
ranging from a high of 90 percent for health
services organizations to a low of 30 percent
for arts organizations. (The majority of revenue
for arts organizations, 60 percent, comes from

public support, which includes donations,
government grants, and other funds.)
1&gt;

The largest source of revenue for foundations
is contributions. Roughly one-third of revenue
comes from the gain and sale of assets.

1&gt;

For non-charitable nonprofit organizations, the
largest source of revenue is program revenue,
followed by dues as the second largest source
of revenue.

NONPROFIT EMPLOYMENT AND WAGES • •••• •"
Michigan nonprofils play a vital role in lhe state's economy, employing 10 percent of
the workforce and paying $4 billion each quarter in wages.
1&gt;

Michigan nonprofits directly employ more than
440,000 people, or approximately 10 percent
of the workforce, with public charities employing more than 90 percent of these workers. An
additional 162,000 jobs are generated as a
result of spending by Michigan non profits.

1&gt;

The total number of nonprofit employees
between 2006 and 2008 increased by 2.6
percent, from 429,381 to 440,439. Over the
same period, total employment in the state
decreased by 3 percent.

1&gt;

Health service organizations are the largest
source of employment in the nonprofit sector;
employment in health service organizations
increased by 5.5 percent since 2006. The
second largest employment group is human
service organizations, which have experienced a decrease in employment by 4.6
percent since 2006.

1&gt;

Compared to other sectors, the number of
employees in the nonprofit sector in early 2008

�(440,000} was slightly less than the 478,200
employees in the retail trade sector and the
581,500 employees in the manufacturing
sector.
~

In 2008, nonprofit employers paid $4 billion a
quarter in wages. Largely driven by advances

in the health care sector, total quarterly wages
in the state increased nearly 11 percent from
third quarter 2006 to first quarter 2008. Similar
to employment, wages in human service organizations have also decreased since 2006.

other sectors are multiplied, along with the earnings of its employees, based on assumptions about the goods and services that they
purchase from sources beyond their employer. (See the full report for

�Giving

in Michigan
Highlights from a 2008 survey of Michigan Residents

�T

he nonprofit sector in Michigan is comprised of approximately 47,000 organizations, including more than
31,000 charities whose work spans every issue of concern to Michigan residents, ranging from education
to health, human services to the arts, economic development to the environment. The nonprofit community
provides many services that act as a safety net during a recession and is an important economic engine
in tough times, collectively providing approximately 440,000 jobs in Michigan while generating an additional
161,000 jobs as a result of the sector's spending.

Giving and volunteering are vito! components of the ability of
charities to successfully serve Michigan residents. Charities are
seeing the demand for their services grow, leading them to
rely even more heavily on individual giving and volunteering.
*Nationally, individuals contributed $306.39 billion to
charities in 2007 (Giving USA 2008). Charities could not
operate without the support of individuals. Critical to an
individual's decision to support a charity is their perception of
the sector as a whole.
This past yeor has been a difficult time for charities, with 50
percent reporting decreases in revenue {individual giving,
foundations, government ond corporate support) and 70
percent reporting increases in demand. Although the rates of
giving have remained the same, it should be noted that many
charities are reporting that the size of donations hos decreased
(Michigan Nonprofits Stnuggle with Economic Downturn,
MNA/GVSU 2008).
The following ore the results of o survey conducted in 2009 to
better understand Michigan residents' 2008 charitable giving
and volunteering and their perception of charities.

Executive Summary
Findings from the survey include:
•

Almost nine out of ten people (87.3%)
made a contribution to charity in the
previous year*.

•

Nearly 50 percent of the adult
population volunteered in 2008.
Women (55.1 %) were more likely to
volunteer than men (42.8%). These
results demonstrate o growing gap
between the volunteer roles of men
and women.

•

Nearly 95% of respondents soid the
need for charities is greater today than
in the past.

•

Nine out of ten Michigan residents
believe that charities should retain their
tax exemptions.

In Spring 2009, 1,001 Michigan residents were asked about
their experiences with charitable giving and volunteering during the previous year.
The survey continues a tradition of asking Michigan residents about their relationship with the state's nonprofit
sector. The survey was conducted by the Institute for Public Policy and Social Research at Michigan State
University between January and March of 2009 as part of the quarterly State of the State Survey (SOSS) series.

Giving in Michigan
A survey of Michigan residents found that almost nine
out of ten people (87.3%) had made a contribution
to charity in the previous year. The percentage of
women giving decreased from last year to 86.6%,
making men (88 .0%) slightly more likely to donate.
Although rates of giving are similar to the past four
years, many charities are reporting that the size of
donations hos decreased.
Giving varies by age, with the age groups most likely
to make a contribution being 60-64 years (96. 2%),

50-59 years (93.5%), 40-49 years (89.1 %), 65+
(86.1 %) and 30-39 years (86.1 %). Giving rates far
younger people are high, with more than four out of
five making contributions.
Giving rates varied across the state, from southwest
Michigan (76. 8%) and Detroit (77.6%) to west central
Michigan (89.5%), the Northern Lower Peninsula
(91.1 %), and the Upper Peninsula (93.5%).

to the previous year, more than a quarter of respondents
(29.6%) said they plan to volunteer more in the coming
year; 61.1% said they are planning to maintain the same
level of volunteering as last year; and 9.3% said they
were planning to volunteer less.

from high school graduates (44.3%) to college
graduates (52.4%), some post graduate education
(60.0%), and those with a graduate degree (64.9%).
