Richardson, Chairman Principles & Practices Task Force Resolved: The attached 1997 CMF Principles & Practices (P&P's) be adopted and conveyed to the membership per the plan described below. That the P&P's be :reviewed and updated annually by the Board of Trustees or their designates. Background At the November, 1996 CMF Board of Trustees Meeting, a Task Force was appointed by CMF Chair, Mariam C. Noland, to review, evaluate, and update the "CMF Principles & Practices for Effective Grantmaking." Board members serving on the Task Force are as follows: William C. Richardson (Chair) President, CEO & Trustee W. K. Kellogg Foundation Dr. Dennis L. Bark Chairman, Board. of Trustees Earhart Foundation Ms. Ann K. Irish President, Elizabeth E. Kennedy Fund Trustee, Earhart Foundation Ms. Colleen D. Keast President Whirlpool Foundation Mr. David B. Kennedy President Earhart Foundation Mr. John E. Marshall III President/ CEO/ Trustee The Kresge Foundation Ms. Mariam C. Noland President Comm. Foundation for SE Michigan Ms. Helen M. Philpott Trustee Community Foundation of Greater Flint Dr. John W. Porter Trustee Charles Stewart Mott Foundation Ms. Kari Schlachtenhaufen Vice President The Skillman Foundation Mr. Stephen E. Upton Chairman, Board of Trustees FrederickS. Upton Foundation �/9 The Task Force evaluated the current CMF Principles & Practices, based on those prepared by the Council on Foundations in the early '80's, in addition to looking at ideas from other nonprofits and regional associations, particularly the Minnesota Council on Foundations. The Task Force was staffed by CMF President, Dorothy A. Johnson and Vice President, RobertS . Collier. Principles The ten proposed principles are attached. It is anticipated that these principles will be published as part of the CMF Annual Report and other appropriate publications. Principles & Practices This document, copy attached, includes not only the ten principles noted above, but examples of practices that have proven to be beneficial to one or more Michigan grantmakers in achieving the principles. While many of these practices are required by law, a number are unique to specific types of grantmakers. It is intended that grantmakers choose among the practices that best suit their operational requirements. Dissemination Plan Following approval by the CMF Board ofTrustee_s the Task Force recommends that a letter (signed by the CMF and Task Force Chair) and a copy of the Principles & Practices be sent to each CMF Member. The letter will not only highlight the rationale for the P&P's, but will indicate that the CMF Annual Conference will include a concurrent session discussing the issues surrounding each principle. (Note: Bill Richardson has agreed to participate, and task force members are being asked to do the same.) In addition CMF will do the following: • • • • • • Include a copy of the principles in the packets distributed to each donor requesting information about giving Distribute the practices to the same group, as requested Publish principles as part of appropriate CMF publications Feature principles as part of appropriate CMF workshops, such as the Institute for New Trustees and New Staff Share materials with other regional associations of grantmakers and philanthropic organizations Respond to other opportunities and requests Other ideas for dissemination are most welcome. Consideration ofthe 1997 CMF Principles & Practices has been stimulating and thoughtprovoking. We recommend approval, at the same time underscoring the recommendation to review P&P annually, in order to remain responsive to issues effecting grantmaking. i:ewp:committee/brdtrst/697ppmem �Council of Michigan Foundations Principles Michigan is blessed with a tradition of philanthropic giving. This is demonstrated in part by an increasing number of foundations and corporate giving programs that are vital partners with the public, private and nonprofit sectors in strengthening the quality of life for all residents. Members of the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) have requested information and guidance on matters to consider when assessing the operational effectiveness of their foundation or corporate giving program. Likewise, individuals considering the formation of a private or community foundation or corporate giving program, have asked for guidelines to consider. With this in mind, the CMF Board of Trustees has adopted the following Principles. Also available are examples of practices that have proven to be beneficial to one or more Michigan grantmakers in achieving each principle. For a copy of the Practices, which are updated annually, and for further information about these Principles, please contact the CMF office. 1. Honor donor intent by respecting the basic purposes and expectations as set forth by the donor(s) in documents or other forms of communication creating the grantmaking organization. 2. Have an identifiable decision-making body responsible for determining and revisiting periodically the policies that define the program interests and objectives to be served, 3. Be accountable to the law and to the responsibilities of being a fiduciary and of tax exemption, 4. Adhere to the highest standards of ethical behavior. 5. Review and evaluate periodically the mission, policies, grantmaking priorities and practices. 6. Be accessible in responding clearly and promptly to requests for information and grant applications. 7. Deal respectfully with applicants, grantees, and donors to help address shared goals. 8. Make readily available basic information about funding priorities, application requirem ents~ and grantmaking through publishing and distributing periodic communication tools such as an annual report. 9. Draw on the full range of human talents available for board service, staff, and consultants. 10. Learn by networking with other grantmakers and by participating in organizations, like CMF, that support the field of philanthropy.

This is demonstrated in part by an increasing number of foundations and corporate giving programs that are vital partners with the public, private and nonprofit sectors in strengthening the quality of life for all residents. Members of the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) have requested information and guidance on matters to consider when assessing the operational effectiveness of their foundation or corporate giving program. Likewise, individuals considering the formation of a private or community foundation or corporate giving program (hereafter referred to as grantmakers/grantmaking organization), have asked for a similar checklist of guidelines to consider. With this in mind, the CMF Board of Trustees has adopted the following ten Principles that are highlighted in bold. The CMF Board recognizes that there are many different approaches to implementation of each principle. Therefore, following each principle are examples of practices that have proven to be beneficial to one or more Mi_chigan grantmakers in achieving the principle. While many ofthese practices are required oy-law, a number are unique to specific types of grantmakers. In the latter category, it is intended that grantmakers choose among the practices that best suit their operational requirements. Intended to be instructional, these practices are updated annually in order to share what works well for grantmakers. Other examples of practices and materials to implement each principle are available from the CMF office. Additional ideas are always welcome. I. Honor donor intent by respecting the basic purposes and expectations as set forth by the donor(s) in documents or other forms of communication creating the grantmaking organization. • Have donor(s) talk about their interests and expectations with the board, ideally videotaping the meeting for future reference and generations. Encourage donor(s) to be as clear as possible about their purpose in creating the grantmaking organization. • Make certain that copies of the creating documents and any other written correspondence are available in a manual for each board member. • Request that each board member reread the organizing documents and any other purpose statements, at least once a year. i/RCollier/CMFBoard/Principl �• Reiterate the donor's intent in any annual report or other foundation publications. • If our changing society makes following the donor' s specific instructions impractical, find related alternative strategies of grantmaking that reasonably honor the donor' s intent. 2. Have an identifiable decision-making body responsible for determining and revisiting periodically, the policies that define the program interests and objectives to be served. • In most cases, the founder establishes the first board. In selecting board members, qualifications to consider may include: -Agreeability with the Stated Purposes of the Foundation/Donor, -willingness to participate actively, -policy, programmatic and fiscal experience, -commitment to the integrity of the J?;rantmaking process, -reputation for fairness and equality, -philosophy, gender, race, ethnicity and socio-economic status, and -willingness to become informed. • Orient new board members to their responsibilities by sharing written materials including the organizational documents, any written correspondence from the founder and individual meetings with other board members and staff. • Establish a plan and process for the periodic review of board member performance as a body and individually. • If compensation is provided, consider the appropriateness of fees in relation to board member responsibilities and the time commitment in board service. 3. Be accountable to the law and to the responsibilities of being a fiduciary and of tax exemption. • Board members must be familiar with all federal and state legal requirements including such subjects as the private foundation pay-out, excise tax and self-dealing laws, annual filing of 990 PF and 990, as well as state requirements. • Consider the merit of an annual independent audit. Most grantmakers of any size have an independent audit. i/RCollier/CMFBoard/Principl - ----------- �·- ··- ·· · ··· ··· · -·- ~-·-···-··-·- ---------------------------, • Make certain that sufficient administrative funding is maintained to assure that the grantmaker can carry out its mission effectively. Expenses should not be excessive or disproportionate to the amounts spent directly for grants and technical assistance to grantees. Review salary and expense surveys compiled by grantmaker associations. • Develop investment objectives and asset allocation policies to help insure appropriate oversight of investment performance. 4. Adhere to the highest standards of ethical behavior. • Establish processes that ensure that personal interests of board members and staff do not conflict with grantmaker' s mission and purpose. • Establish a conflict of interest policy. Such a policy may include: -Procedure to disclose organizational affiliations with grantees, potential grantees or other constituents or vendors with whom the organization does business, -Procedures for decision-making when a board member or employee has a real or perceived conflict of interest, - Policy on acceptance of fees or entertainment from a grantee or a potential grantee. 5. Review and evaluate periodically the mission, policies, grantmaking priorities and practices. • Review on an annual basis governing principles and policies. Depending on the number and scope, such a review may be established on a rotating basis for a certain month of each year. • Some grantmakers conduct their own review internally, others enlist outside help to conduct an annual review. Others use grantees and other representatives of the community to help assess current needs and problems. i/RCollier/CMFBoard/Principl �6. Be accessible in responding clearly and promptly to requests for information and grant applications. • Publish an address and the name of an individual to contact for information. Grantmakers that maintain offices, if feasible, should also publish a phone number, office location and office hours. • Make information available to at least one publisher of a foundation directory, and ideally all, in order that correct information regarding a grantmaker's purposes and priorities may be available to the public. • Make information available to the Foundation Center and CMF, in order that correct information regarding a grantmaker's purposes and priorities may be published in directories available to the Public. 7. Deal respectfully with applicants, grantees and donors -- recognizing a partnership is needed to attain shared goals. • Respond in a timely manner to all requests. • Be clear about any reporting requirements and the nature of any monitoring that will take place. Some grantmakers include a list of standard requirements in the grant award letter. 8. Make readily available basic information about funding priorities, application requirements, and grantmaking through publishing and distributing periodic communication tools such as an annual report. • The format, detail and dissemination strategies of such publications or materials need to be appropriate to the size and complexity of the grantmaker' s program and to the needs of its prospective grant applicants. • As appropriate, the following administrative information about each grantmaking organization should be included: - name of board members, names and titles of officers, listing of staff, and financial information, including total income, expenditures, and a balance sheet. i/RCollier/CMFBoard/Principl �• Provide a full and clear description of its grantmaking process, including for example, information about its: - - • mission and goals, program interests, funding priorities and any restrictions on what is supported, geographic limitations, if any, preferred format for applications, application deadlines, statements of when and how requests will be acknowledged, an estimate of the time needed for a decision, a list of grants made in the previous year, policies and practices related to multi-year funding, and average size and range of grants made. When a policy or procedure changes significantly, those affected, including grant applicants, should be advised within a reasonable period of time. 9. Draw on the full range of human talents available for board service, staff9 and consultants. • Some grantmakers have established a diversity policy to help them in considering how to obtain the best qualified individual for each task. • Some grantmakers consider the demographics of their geographic area served when nominating board members and selecting staff 10. Learn by networking with other grantmakers and by participating in organizations, like CMF, that support the field of philanthropy. • Many grantmakers regularly meet to exchange ideas, to collaborate on a grant project or to hear from informed speakers. • Consider joining groups like your regional association of grantmakers (CMF), Council on Foundations, Independent Sector, Philanthropy Roundtable, National Network of Grantmakers, and/or an affinity group. i/RCollier/CMFBoard/Principl ------- � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

YAC Best Practices The following "Youth Advisory Committee (YA C) Best Practices" were prepared by staff with input from a Formative Evaluation Research Associates (FERA) conducted "group interview" of YAC Advisors and community foundation staff. The guidelines were reviewed at the February joint MCFYP Executive Committee and Community Foundation Committee meeting, and were further revised by the Michigan community foundation Executive Directors at their March retreat. The MCFYP Board of Trustees will approve the adoption of -- ----------------- �the "YAC Best Practices" as criteria for operating a Y AC as a standing committee of a Michigan community foundation. YOUTH ADVISORY COMMITTEE BEST PRACTICES The following Best Practices are recommended as criteria for operating a Youth Advisory Committee (YAC) as a standing committee of a community foundation . It is helpful to review these annually as part of a self-audit process. The role of theY AC is to advise on the distributions of funds from a permanent Youth Fund through activities such as: assessing local youth needs, involving youth in fund development, and supporting systems for involving young people in philanthropy. 1. A permanent standing committee of the community foundation, the YAC meets a mhRimum of six times a year. 2. YAC membership of at least 7 youth is representative of the youth community. 3. A trained adult advisor works with the YAC. 4. There is an annual orientation process for new YAC members. 5. As the basis for grantmaking, the YAC collects information, at least every three years 9 about the assets and needs related to youth in its community. 6. YAC members are provided opportunities to be involved in fund development. Helping to ensure the continued growth of the youth fund, emphasis should be placed on donor calls and community presentations, based on local youth issues and concerns, rather than "fund raising" activities. 7. The YAC completes an annual proactive grantmaking process, that involves and builds the capacity of youth as resources and decision makers in their communities, and results in the recommendation of grants to the community foundation Board. 8. YAC members should participate in available leadership training opportunities. 9. A YAC has a process to evaluate its ongoing operations, including the effectiveness ofYAC grants. 10. YAC members have an opportunity to meet annually with members of the Board of Trustees of the community foundation. The purpose of involving theYAC in the activities of a community foundation is to provide opportunities for sharing between the adult Board of Trustees and theYAC members. When appropriate, YAC members may attend board meetings, participate in an annual meeting, or join in special events. 11. Grantmaking by the YAC is featured in annual reports, newsletters, public presentations, and other communications tools. This communicates to the wider public the importance of the YAC and youth involvement in the community foundation . �S7 12. The community foundation may support a project funded by the YAC with income from a different endowment fund. The community foundation board may jointly fund a project with the YAC. 13. The YAC may review youth-related proposals that are submitted to the community foundation at-large. As experienced grantmakers, YAC members can provide valuable insights into the value of projects serving youth. i:ewp:committee/brdtrst/pres6-97 �J ) EXIT 49A II HICKORY CORNERS N PLAINWELL -- ) ) - -:--:: . . .. \ 37 lll.JlJlJ north 4Hth slrl'l'l ,HJgusta, michig,m -N!ll2-llC)()() (ll6.7ll.2()l)(} Xlltl."i6lA:N7 : EXIT 85 FROM KALAMAZOO ... tlll M-·B (Cull Roild) to Richl,md .

Mawby Re: K-12 Education in Philanthropy Project Personnel The K-12 Education in Philanthropy Project is well underway. Terry Robidoux, an award winning social studies high school teacher with over 25 years of experience, has been hired as the Curriculum Specialist. Judy Wright, of the C:MF staff, will be transferring over to the project as Executive Secretary during June. This completes the staffing for the project. Offices Offices for the project have been found at education related institutions which will enhance the project. Both hosts are providing access to office equipment and services which helps the project to save on office expenses. Terry is housed at the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards in Detroit. Kathy and Judy will be located at the Muskegon Area Intermediate School District. Teacher Selection The applications for participation as a site development school are out to teachers in Michigan. A problem with the delivery of the initial mailing may result in some rescheduling of the selection and curriculum development by delaying the site selection until fall. We will know about the status of the site applications by June 13th and the Steering Committee will either select the sites or revise the schedule at their meeting on June 26, 1997. Fund-Raising An active fund development committee is working on raising the remaining $3 million required to implement the project as designed. Formal background packets, telephone conversations, and requests for appointments have been mailed to the Carnegie Foundation, the DeWitt-Wallace Foundation, the Pew Charitable Trusts, and an anonymous New York Foundation. An appointment is scheduled for June 24, 1996 with the Carnegie Foundation and conversations are underway for a visit at the same time with the anonymous donor and/or the Ford Foundation. The Pew Charitable Trusts have requested a conference call to explore the project further. An informal inquiry and request for appointment has also been made with the Lucille and David Packard Foundation. An initial conversation and proposal has also gone to the Frey Foundation for their consideration. �Numerous organizations continue to contribute to the project. The Kettering Foundation has agreed to donate 35 subscriptions and memberships to the teachers and the project staff members over the next three years. Their series on civil society will be especially helpful. The Johnson Foundation has sent 40 copies of their publication on the relationship between service-learning, and school-to-work programs. Energize, of Philadelphia, has sold their book By the People (an excellent history of voluntarism in the United States) to us at cost. Steering Committee Additions Kathleen Strauss, a member of the Michigan Board ofEducation has agreed to join the committee. The Michigan Council for Social Studies, the professional organization of social studies teachers in the State, have enthusiastically endorsed the project and have asked to be represented in our discussions. Philanthropy Institute The conference to first discuss and then to publish an intellectual framework for the development ofthe curriculum is scheduled for October 19, 20, and 21 at the Amway in Grand Rapids. Robert Payton from the Indiana School on Philanthropy, Robert Wuthnow from Princeton University, and Harry Boyt from the Humphrey Center in Minneapolis are confirmed participants. An invitation is out to John Gardner and strong interest in participation has been expressed by Bill Bradley. Other invitations have been sent and we are waiting final confirmation. A number of the leading scholars in the area of civil society, the development of altruistic behavior in children, service-learning, philanthropy, and volunteerism have already agreed to submit papers for consideration. Other Details Other organizational details such as the early dissemination strategy, the computer network system for the teachers, the evaluation strategy and resources, and continuing collection of resource materials for the teachers are underway. The Steering Committee remains actively involved in the project.

Smyth for Ranny Riecker, Chair Government Relations Committee Re: Update STATE LEGISLATION AND ISSUES Community Foundation Definition The CMF Community Foundation Committee, under the leadership of Jack Hopkins, has proposed a definition of a community foundation (see attached), that is being introduced by Senator Emmons (Chair, Senate Finance Committee), and will be introduced in the House shortly. The Senate and House leadership is supportive of our efforts as we work to create "healthy" community foundations to which every citizen of the state will have access. Community Foundations and Units of Government Issue Legislation is being developed with the involvement of John Martin, Legal Counsel to the Fremont Area Foundation, that will allow units of government, including school systems and public libraries, to transfer gifts received from bequests - not tax money - to community foundations for permanent endowment funds to accomplish the goals of the original donors. This legislation will also give the community foundations flexibility to invest these funds in accordance with their own investment guidelines, and not be limited by Public Act 20. This legislation will be particularly helpful to the community foundations developing in rural Michigan. Community Foundation Escheats CMF continues to investigate how a local community foundation can benefit from escheated funds, as a permanent gift, or at a minimum, as a temporary gift-- receiving the "float", before the funds are returned to the state. CMF is working with legal counsel, as well as David Haynes, Public Affairs and Associates, and the Michigan Bankers Association, to obtain answers. It is a complicated issue, with many interested parties who need to understand the value of CMF's proposal to their local communities. �Devolution CMF is working with Members at the state and local level to respond to the challenges of devolution. CMF is partnering with the Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) and other associations, to provide useful information, at the same time making the case for the value of nonprofits. To date, CMF's role is one of providing information as well as collaborating with MNA to publish an issues book describe below. Term Limits Michigan will experience a complete change in its elected state government officials during 1998, 1999, and 2000 due to term limits. CMF is working with MNA, and Public Sector Consultants to design a three year initiative that will deal with the issue of educating new members of the state government to critical issues including those affecting philanthropy and the nonprofit sector. Likely products will include a new Michigan In Briefissues Handbook, last produced in 1992-93. Funding partners are welcome. This Project must become operational by the fall so that the Handbook is available in June 1998 when the first round of term limits elections begins. FEDERAL LEGISLATION Private Foundation Creation - Full Deductibility The tax provision which provides full deductibility to donors for gifts of publicly traded stock to private foundations, expires in two days (May 31, 1997). The legislation to extend the provision, H. R. 519, is co-sponsored by 24 Congressmen, including nine from Michigan (See attached list,) and S. 194 is cosponsored by nine Senators, including Senator Abraham. Obviously Michigan has done a good job, but according to Senator Moynihan, members of Congress "are not hearing about it" on Capitol Hill. CMF is doubling back to Senator Levin and the seven Michigan Congressmen not currently cosponsors. While CMF is sending letters/faxes to the attached House Ways and Means and Senate Finance Committee members, we would encourage you to do so as well BEFORE June 12, 1997. Attached is a proposed letter prepared by the Council on Foundations. Congressman David Camp's aide, Behrends Foster, gives insight to the challenge when he explains that the Democrats and Republicans have made a deal to consider changes in the capital gains tax, estate tax relief, and a $500 child tax credit. Currently there are $400-$500 billion of proposed cuts being lobbied on Capitol Hill, and space for only $13 5 billion. The full deductibility cut is currently estimated by the Joint Tax Committee at $20 million a year, and while not a whole lot of money on balance, in this environment, every proposed change is under scrutiny. i:ewp:committee/brdtrst/6097govt �The language builds on the current definition of community foundations in the Michigan tax code, letters a - g, enclosed as a reference tool. (4) As used in this section, "community foundation" means an organizaion that applies for certification on or before April 1 of the tax yar for which the taxpayer is claiming the credit and that the department certifies for that tax year as meeting all the follwoing requirements: a) Qualifies for exemption from federal income taxation under sectin 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. b) Supports a broad range of charitable activities within the. specific geographic area of this state that it serves, such as a municipality or county. c) Maintains an ongoin program to attract new yndowment funds by seeking gifts and bequests from a wide range of potential donors in the community or area served. d) Is publicly supported as defined by the regulations of the United States department of treasury, 26 C.F.R. 1.170A-9(e)(10). e) Is not a supporting organization as defined under section 509(a)(3) of the internal revenue code and the regulations ofthe United States department oftreasury, 26C.F.R . 1.509(a)-4 and 1.509(a)-5. f) Meets the requirements for treatment as_a single entity contained in the regulations of the Unived States department oftreasury, 26 C.F.R. 1.170A-9(e)(ll). (new g) is incorporated or is established as a trust a minimum of six months immediately preceding the tax year for which the credit is claimed and has a minimum endowment value by the sixth month of $25, 000. h) For community foundations established after the date of this legislation, operates in a county of this state that is not served by an existing certified community foundation, or operates as a geographic component fund of an existing certified community foundation. (i) Has an independent governing body not appointed by a single entity and broadly representative of the public interest. OJ provides evidence of ability to support a part-time paid staff. (k) renewal of the tax credit certification requires an annual independent financial review and an independent audit every three years and demonstration that the public support test is being met. ijulreycmtyfndcfdefin �S.E' ) ·· ·· CSJ U1 Bill Summary & Status for t.h e 105th Congress 'N LD '.....

Anne To: Dorothy A. Johnson Page 2 of. I SAMPLE LETTER TO MEMBERS OF CONGRESS The Honorable - - - - - - u.s. House ofRepresentatives (or) U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20515 +four digit code for House members, Washington, D.C. 20510 +four digit code for Senate members Attention: Tax Legislative Assistant Re: Expiration of Incentive for Charitable Giving Dear Representative or Senator _ _ _ _ __ I am writing to ask that you support efforts to restore a valuable incentive for charitable giving. Section 170(e)(5), which expired May 31, permitted donors to deduct the full, fair market value when giving publicly-traded stock to private foundations. Absent this provision, only the original cost or basis of the stock may now be deducted. The bull market of the 1980's has left many wealthy Americans holding large amounts of highly appreciated publicly-traded stock. By providing a strong tax incentive for lifetime gifts of such stock to private foundations, Section 170(eX5) has encouraged thousands of these individuals to dedicate a substantial portion of their wealth to public rather than private purposes by creating endowed, grantmaking; philanthropic organizations. The expiration of this provision will discourage further gifts and result in fewer grants reaching charitable organizations. While extension of the provision is helpful, the on-again-off-again pattern of expiring provisions makes long range planning for charitable giving impossible. It is important that the incentive be permanently restored to the IRS Code. Foundations have been providing important support for charitable causes in (insert representative's city, region or state) for many years. (Ifpossible, insert a brief example or examples offowzdation-supported activities in the representative's district.) Today, as government at all levels is under increasing pressure to reduce spending, foundations have become even more important sources of support for vital charitable initiatives. Please insure that these important institutions continue to thrive by voting your support for permanent restoration of Section 170(e)(5). Legislation has been introduced to achieve this end. Congressmen David Camp and Ben Cardin have cosponsored H.R. 519, and Senators Pat Moynihan John Chafee have introduced S.l94. These sponsors will be working to include their bills in the Budget reconciliation package. I am writing to request your support for their efforts. �From: Baboock. Anne To: Dorofly A.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Council of Michigan Foundations' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opmwn. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of the Council of Michigan Foundations and supporting organizations at March 31, 1997 and 1996, and the combined results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

During fiscal 1994, the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP) and the Michigan AIDS Fund (MAF) became supporting organizations of CMF under the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 509(a)(3). The accompanying financial statements of CMF have been prepared on a combined basis to include its affiliated supporting organizations, because CMF's Board of Trustees exercises significant control over these organizations through the appointment of board members for each of these organizations. Investments All investments are carried at estimated fair market value, using quoted market prices. Net realized gains and losses and unrealized increases or decreases resulting from changes in the market value of investments are included in the combined statements of activities and changes in net assets. The realized gain or loss on the sale of investments is the difference between the proceeds received and the basis of specific investments sold. Fixed Assets Fixed assets, which are composed of office space, furniture and equipment, are stated at estimated market value at the date donated or at cost if purchased. Depreciation IS computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. 7 • I �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note A-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Change in Accounting Principles and Presentation During fiscal 1996, CMF adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SF AS) No. 116, Accounting for Contributions Received and Contributions Made, and SF AS No. 117, Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Organizations, and applied these standards retroactively. SF AS No. 117 establishes standards for external financial reporting by not-for-profit organizations and requires that resources be classified for accounting and reporting purposes into three net asset categories according to externally (donor) imposed restrictions or the lack thereof (i.e., unrestricted, temporarily restricted or permanently restricted). SF AS No. 116 requires that unconditional promises received from donors be recorded as receivables and revenues in the year in which the promises are received. Promises made (e.g., grants) by CMF are recorded as an expense and a liability when approved by the governing boards of CMF and its supporting organizations, if unconditional, or when the condition is met by the recipient, if conditional. Net Asset Classifications The three net asset groups used for reporting purposes in the accompanying combined financial statements are as follows : Unrestricted Net Assets-Reflect assets that have not been restricted as to use by donors. Certain of these assets have been designated by the governing boards of CMF and its supporting organizations to be used for a specific purpose. These boarddesignated funds reflect investment income earned on MCFYP assets that will be used to fund community foundation programming beyond the year 2000. Temporarily Restricted Net Assets-Reflect contributed assets whose use by CMF and its supporting organizations has been limited by donors for a specific time period or purpose. Permanently Restricted Net Assets-Reflect contributions with donor-imposed restrictions that do not expire and that allow, in certain cases, only the income earned thereon to be expended. Income earned that is restricted for a period of time or purpose is recorded as a temporarily restricted asset. 8 �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note A-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Grants Payable Grants are recognized as an expense when approved by the governing boards of CMF and its supporting organizations, if unconditional, or when the related conditions are met by the recipient, if conditional. Grants payable recorded in the accompanying combined balance sheets are generally expected to be paid within one year. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications Certain amounts reported in the fiscal 1996 combined financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the fiscal 1997 presentation. Note B-Supporting Organizations Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project The Michigan Community Foundations' youth activity commenced in 1988 and was funded by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. This activity is aimed at encouraging youth development in local communities while strengthening community foundation leadership and grant-making capacity. CMF has acted as administrator of the original project, with all grant monies received from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation being distributed to community foundation members under conditions defined by the grant agreement. The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP) was incorporated in November 1993, with a separate board of trustees to oversee the grant-making activities of the project. Since MCFYP ' s incorporation, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation has committed to transfer approximately $42,500,000 ($27,725,000 of which has been received through fiscal 1997) to the supporting organization for complete administration of MCFYP and grant-making activities. 9 �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note B-Supporting Organizations (continued) Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (continued) MCFYP received an additional $2,600,000 grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation to provide funds for the computerization of Michigan's community foundations, support for foundations that assume responsibility for assisting small affiliate community foundations in their development, and extended support for the youth project, including camp subsidies and national leadership conference funding. Michigan AIDS Fund CMF formed the Michigan AIDS Fund (MAF) for the purpose of managing and administering revenues and expenses of a collaborative funding grant program previously administered by CMF, which acts as a v~hicle for CMF members and others to cooperatively fund AIDS-related projects in Michigan. MAF was incorporated in November 1993, with a separate board of trustees appointed by CMF, to oversee the growing activities and grant-making responsibilities of this program. Note C-Endowment Funds CMF has two endowment funds. The principal amounts of these funds have been permanently restricted by their donors, whereas the investment income earned on the assets of these funds is temporarily restricted for the stated purpose of each fund. Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund to Improve and Increase Philanthropy The Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund to Improve and Increase Philanthropy was established during fiscal 1995 to honor Dr. Mawby's contributions to Michigan philanthropy. Dr. Mawby, former Chairman and CEO of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, was one of the founders of the Council of Michigan Foundations and served as its first chairman in 1972. The purpose of this Fund is to improve and increase philanthropy by continuing and expanding CMF's efforts to enhance philanthropy and increase charitable resources. During fiscal 1996, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation contributed $500,000 to the Fund for the Ruth & Russ Mawby Fund For Kids, with the expressed purpose of improving and increasing philanthropy through youth involvement in the state of Michigan. Permanently restricted net assets ofthis Fund were $1,512,843 and $1,474,592 at March 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. 10 I c-- �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note C-Endowment Funds (continued) William WAllen Endowment Fund The purpose of this Fund is to further the understanding of private philanthropy in federal and state legislative and regulatory matters. The endowment was established with restricted contributions from the member foundations of CMF given in honor of a former CMF board member who was also the first Government Relations chairman. Permanently restricted net assets ofthis Fund were $70,537 at March 31, 1997 and 1996. NoteD-Investments Investments are presented in the combined financial statements at their aggregate market value and are composed of the following: 1997 ..... U.S. Government securities Money market investments Equity investments Fixed income investments Totals 1996 Cost Market Cost Market $ 7,484,000 $ 7,469,454 $ 9,944,036 $ 9,997,515 5,513,782 2,017,383 717,867 $15,733,032 5,513,782 2,273,583 710,198 $15,967,017 6,771,991 770,799 28,925 $17,515,751 6,771,991 819,402 27,994 $17,616,902 11 �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note E-Grants and Contributions Receivable An unconditional promise represents a promise made by grantors/donors to give specified amounts to CMF in the future that are not contingent on CMF performing any specific substantive actions (e.g., raising matching amounts). CMF's grants and contributions receivable consist of unconditional promises by donors to be received as follows: March 31 1997 1996 Receivable in less than one year Receivable in one to five years Receivable in more than five years Less present value discount Net contributions receivable $ 2,556,775 $ 555,266 11,656,304 8,445,798 3,000,000 9,001,064 17,213,079 (3,131,234) (1,884,751) $14,081,845 $7,116,313 The majority of the grants and contributions receivable represent funds that will be regranted to other foundations and not-for-profit organizations in future years. Note F-Annuity Plan CMF has established a tax-deferred annuity plan that covers substantially all employees and enables eligible employees to contribute a portion of their salary to the plan, subject to an annual limitation as prescribed by federal tax regulations. CMF also contributes, for the benefit of each employee, an amount equal to 8% of each eligible employee's salary. CMF recognized contribution expense of $63,000 in 1997 and $48,000 in 1996 related to the plan. Note G-Management Services Agreement An administrative services agreement exists between CMF and its supporting organizations. The administrative agreement requires CMF to provide executive, management, administrative and other such services that the supporting organizations may require. The amounts for these services charged to the supporting organizations are eliminated in the preparation of the combined financial statements. r r r 12 r �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note H-Federal Tax Status The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that CMF is a public charity, as described in Internal Revenue Code Sections 509(a)(l) and 170(b)(l)(A)(vi). The Internal Revenue Service has also ruled that the two supporting organizations, MCFYP and MAF, are exempt from federal income tax as specified under the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 509(a)(3). 13 �S!/ ERNST &YOUNG LLP West Michigan Practice • Suite 1000 171 Monroe Avenue, N .W.

Date: May 27, 1997 Memo To: Board ofTrustees From: Richard K Rappleye RE: CMF Core Operations Statement of Activities as ofMarch 31, 1997 Resolved: That the Council of Michigan Foundations' Board of Trustees accept the enclosed Core Operations Internal Statement of Activities as of March 31, 1997o On May 16, 1997, the CMF Audit and Finance Committee reviewed and approved the following reports: March 31, 1997 Internal Financial Report March 31, 1997 Ernst & Young Audit Report Management Letter Comments & Response Because the Ernst & Young consolidated audit report, which we will review later in this report, includes the financial results ofboth ofboth MCFYP and the Michigan AIDS Fund, we have include only the CMF Co:r_e Internal Statement of Activities which compares the 1996-97 actual results to the approved budget for the Board's review_ The CMF Audit & Finance Committee has reviewed and approved the March 31, 1997 internal financial statements for CMF and the support organizations_ During this review it was noted that the only significant variance from budget for the supporting organizations was in the area of grant revenue for MCFYP. Total grant revenue was over budget due to the $3,000,000 received for the KYIP grant which was awarded to MCFYP in August, 1996, and the early distribution of :funds from the W.K Kellogg Foundation for the WKKF ill grant. The boards of the Michigan AIDS Fund and MCFYP will review their respective internal statements at their up coming board meetings, August 7-8, 1997 and June 12, 1997 respectively. i:\dlindber\boardmet\cmf\m060697 c.doc �March 31, 1997 Internal Statement of Activities The following notes highlight the significant variances from budget for the CMF Core Operations. Note 1: Member Contributions With the prior year being the phase in period for our new dues structure and the asset levels of our members of our members increasing during the past year (dues are based on the member's asset level), we experienced an increase in membership revenue received during 1996-97. Note 2: Conference Income & Expenses Revenue and expenses for the CMF Annual Conference are budgeted on a conservative basis. The record attendance that we experienced at the November, 1996 Annual Conference resulted in both revenues and expenses being over budget. Note 3: Computer Expenses associated with consultants, who were hired to work on the computer system and customize some software programs during the past year, resulted in expense being greater than anticipated. Note 4: Publications & Printing The additional costs associated with a new computer program used to publish the 1Oth Edition of the Directory accounted for the majority of the variance from budget. f: \staff\dlindber\boardmet\crnf\m0606 97 c.doc �Council of Michigan Foundations Core Operations Internal Statement of Activities 4-01-96 to 3-31-97 REVENUES Member Contributions Additional Member Contributions Addtl member Mawby Allen Other Grants Conference Income Publications & Library Services Computer Installment/Loan Fees Investment Income Total Revenues Administrative Expenses Salaries & Benefits Occupancy Telephone Equipment Lease & Maintenance Postage Supplies Insurance Equipment & Furniture Computer Association Dues Books & Subscriptions Publications & Printing Professional & Contracted Services Travel Trustee Meetings Training & Seminars Conference & Meeting Mini-Grants General Purpose Total Administrative Grants Mini-Grants General Purpose Challenge Grants Grants Committed Not Paid Affiliation Mini-Grants Computer Grants Computer Loan Other Grants Total Grants Excess Revenues Over Expenditures Beginning Net Assets Fixed Asset & E& Y Adjust.

CMF Internal Statement vs. Ernst & Young Audit Report As you review the enclosed Ernst & Young audit report it should be noted that this report differs from the internal statements that the board is used to seeing in two main areas: For audit statement purposes multi-year grant commitments are recorded as revenue in the year in which the commitment is received per the FASB accounting rules. For the internal statements revenue is recorded in the year the cash is received. For audit statement purposes grant awards are recorded as an expense when the grantee has satisfied all the conditions of the grant. For internal reporting purposes grants are recorded as an expense when the applications are approved by the board. March 31, 1997 Audit Report Enclosed in the back pocket of your board packet is a copy of the Ernst & Young audit report as ofMarch 31, 1997. As you review the report it should be noted that this report is a consolidated financial statement which includes CMF, MCFYP and the Michigan AIDS Fund. Below are a few of the highlights of the enclosed audit report. Combined Balance Sheet Grants and Contributions Receivable The increase from the prior year includes approximately $1,600,000 in special grants outstancling for CMF and the KYIP outstanding grant commitment of$8,125,000 which was awarded during the current year. Accounts Pavable The increase from the prior year is due to invoices for special projects and expenses for meetings which were held near the end of the year. dlindbergfboardmetlm060697 �Balance Sheet - continued Net Assets- Board Designated Investment income earned from the MCFYP project is being placed in the Board Designated Fund to help fund community foundation programming beyond the end of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation funding period. Net Assets- Permanently Restricted The permanently restricted net assets are made up of the William Allen and Russell G. Mawby endowment funds. Combined Statement of Activities & Changes in Net Assets Support and Revenues Grants and Other Contributions The increase from the prior year in the temporarily restricted amount is due to the increase in special projects for CMF and the KYIP grant awarded to MCFYP. Conferences The majority of the increase from the prior year is due to revenue received from the July, 1996 National Youth Conference. Expenses Conferences The increase from the prior year is due to expenses associated with the National Youth Conference. Publications The increase from the prior year is due to 1996-97 being the first year for publishing a monthly newsletter for the Michigan AIDS Fund. Professional Fees The adjustment in fees paid to AJH Limited, who manages the Michigan AIDS Fund, accounts for the increase from the prior year. dlindberglboardmet/m060697 �Combined Statement of Activities Programming/Administrative With the addition of several special projects for CMF during 1996-97, we have seen an increase in the programming expenses from the prior year. Letter of Recommendations The Audit & Finance Committee also reviewed the Letter ofRecommendations along with management's response during the May 16,1997 meeting. It should be noted that nothlng was unusual or out of the ordinary. dlindberg/boardmet/m060697 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

It should be noted that CMF only undertakes special projects after funding has been secured. Due to the time period of these special projects, fund balances may be carried over from one year to the next. Mott Violence Project The Charles Stewart Mott Foundation has awarded CMF a $210,000 grant for 'a one year Violence Prevention Project. This project is scheduled to run from January 1, 1997 through December 31, 1997. The purpose of this Project is threefold: to engage more foundations and corporations in Michigan in supporting collaborative violence prevention strategies; to raise the level of awareness by both the general public and local and state policymakers about successful collaborative prevention strategies being used elsewhere in the country; and to encourage scholarly but hands-on research that can contribute to both state and local initiatives. Grant Tracking Software CMF has hired a consultant (Henry Bromelkamp & Company) to develop a simplified grant tracking software for our member foundations who award less than 100 grants per year. A key concern in developing this software was to keep the cost around $2,000, which is substantially below other competing programs that run between $5,000$10,000. CMF's goal is to recoup our total development cost which is anticipated to run around $15,000. dlin~rglboardmet/cmf/m031397c/ �81 Partnership For National Service The Partnership for National Service, as part of its Service As Strategy Initiative, has approved a grant of$110,000 to the Council ofMichigan Foundations to support the ongoing service efforts of the AmeriCorps programs operating within Muskegon County, Southeastern Michigan, Genesee County and Kent County. This project is scheduled to run from November 12, 1996 to November 11, 1997. Community Foundation Positioning and Marketing Project The Charles Stewart Mott Foundation has awarded a two year, $200,000 grant for Phase ill of the Community Foundation Positioning and Marketing Project. Phase ill will focus on two target donor audiences, women with hidden wealth and people of weal~, identified in Phase I and IT research as potential donors to community foundations. Phase ill of this Project will allow for the testing of public relations and donor product materials designed to fu1fiii the project goals. These goals are to expand awareness among untapped donors of the role that community foundations play, and thereby increase the use of common donor products offered by all community foundations in the state. This project is scheduled to run from June 1, 1996 through May 31, 1998. Great Lakes Community Foundation Collaborative CMF has been awarded two grants to address environmental issues in the Great Lakes area. The purpose of these grants will be to expand the knowledge of community foundation staff and trustees about the environmental issues affecting the Great Lakes Basin, to build the capacity of community foundations to convene community opinion leaders and policy makers on environmental issues, and to increase the environmental grantmaking of shoreline community foundations from both new and existing permanent endowment funds. CMF is currently awaiting final approval from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation for a $400,000 grant. The Great Lakes Protection Fund has awarded a $166,000 grant for the period July 1, 1996 through June 30, 1998. Gerber Foundation CMF provided Executive Director search services to the Gerber Foundation to fill this recently created position. For one year the Executive Director will be a contracted employee of CMF with all expenses associated with this position being reimbursed by the Gerber Foundation. On September 1, 1997 this person will become a permanent full-time employee of the Gerber Foundation, and no longer be carried on CMF's books. dlindberglboardmet/cmf/m031397c/ �82 Community Foundation Dissemination Project The W.K Kellogg Foundation has awarded a $145,300 grant to CMF to disseminate lessons learned from the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP). This grant is scheduled to run from March 1, 1996 through February 28, 1998. The goal of this project is to share the results of the MCFYP project and to encourage others to adopt all or parts of this initiative. Michigan Cares The Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) has awarded CMF two grants under the Michigan CARES Project. The Michigan CARES Project is designed to provide technical assistance in developing community service programs and to provide community development assistance in the form of grants to build strong community service infrastructure in communities so they will be able to sustain service program funding. Two grants have been awarded by the MCSC to Council of Michigan Foundations. The first being a grant for $185,000 which is scheduled to run from November 19, 1996 through November 18, 1997. The second being a grant for $89,000 which runs from September 1, 1996 through August 31, 1997. dlindberglboardmet/cmf/m0313 97 c/ �CMF Special Projects 1997-98 budget Mott Violence Project REVENUES Member Contributions Additional Member Contributions Addtl member Mawby Allen Other Grants Conference I nco me Publications & Library Services Computer Installment/Loan Fees Investment Income Total Revenues Administrative Expenses Salaries & Benefits Occupancy Telephone Equipment Maintenance Postage Supplies Insurance Equipment & Furniture Computer Association Dues Books & Subscriptions Publications & Printing Professional & Contracted Services Travel Trustee Meetings Training & Seminars Conference & Meeting Mini-Grants General Purpose Total Administrative Grants Mini-Grants General Purpose Challenge Grants Grants Committed Not Paid Affiliation Mini-Grants Computer Grants Computer Loan Other Grants Total Grants Excess Revenues Over Expenditures Beginning Net Assets Transfer From Other Funds Imaging Project CHANGE IN FUND BALANCE Ending Net Assets SPECP,...

Richardson, Chair Principles & Practices Committee Re: Progress Report The Principles & Practices (P&P) Committee met January 14, 1997, to begin their work to compose a list of principles and practices for presentation to the CMF Board. The second meeting of the Committee will follow the March 13, 1997 CMF Board Meeting. You will recall that it is the Board's charge to the committee to revise the CMF Principles & Practices adopted in the 1980's by the CMF Board. At that time, the board adopted the same principles and practices as established by the Council on Foundations. It was agreed at the November CMF Board Meeting, that CMF's Principles & Practices would ideally be revised and shared with the board in June, followed by a report to the membership and presentation at the 25th Annual CMF Conference in November. A draft document is being circulated to the Committee, that is broadly representative of the CMF membership. Members include: William C. Richardson, President, CEO & Trustee W. K. Kellogg Foundation (Chair) Dennis L. Bark, Chairman/Trustee Earhart Foundation Colleen D. Keast, President Whirlpool Foundation Ann K. Irish, President Elizabeth E.

Following the March 13 , 1997 meeting, a P&P draft will be circulated to the Board. i:ewp:committee/pp3-2 mem �34 MARCH 4, 1997 TO: COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS BOARD OF TRUSTEES FROM: Dr. John W. Porter, K-12 Education in Philanthropy Committee Dr. Russell G. Mawby, Chairman Kathy Agard, Director RE: K-12 Education in Philanthropy Project Great News! The W.K. Kellogg Foundation has approved our three-year grant request for $1.5 million in support ofthe K-12 Education in Philanthropy Project. The project will develop teaching units for the K -12 school systems to integrate the teaching of philanthropy (giving, serving and the role of the third sector) into the standard school core curriculum. The sites selected to develop the units will be diversified as to location across Michigan, setting (rural, suburban, urban), type of school (private, public), and the racial and ethnic composition of the students and faculty. We hope to be testing the first units at this time next year. Our research suggests there is an historic opportunity to deeply integrate these units into the teaching of the social studies as a part of the implementation and future student assessment of Michigan's Core Academic Curriculum. As you know, Kathy Agard was hired to direct the project. We are now beginning the search for a Curriculum Specialist and a Secretary. The staff for the project will be housed outside of CMF' s offices, preferably in a school setting. Initial work is also underway to plan a national discussion conference on the teaching of philanthropy, to work out computer-based networks between the teachers for research and communication, and to identify and select the teachers who will write the units. The orientation of the teachers will begin this summer. The Kellogg grant provides the initial support for the estimated $4.8 million, 5 year project. We have been in discussion with the W.K. Kellogg Foundation regarding potential assistance for the final two years. The additional funds must be raised to complete the project in its full design. A small sub-committee of the Project Steering Committee is now planning to meet with funders to raise approximately $3 million in support of the balance of the project. We are grateful that other Michigan foundations have expressed an interest and we will be approaching them over the next few months. Please let us know if your foundation would be interested in further discussing the project. As you recall, we had previously received a commitment from the Lilly Endowment of $460,000 to support a special conference on the teaching of philanthropy, and portions of the Michigan project evaluation. The Lilly Endowment grant is part of a larger $2.2 million companion project of the Indiana Humanities Council. The Indiana project, over �35 the next 3 years, will develop and test the transmission of the philanthropic tradition through the informal systems of youth-serving and religious organizations. The two projects will share the philanthropy conference as a method for building an intellectual framework for each effort. We expect there will be significant sharing between the projects as the curriculum ideas develop in each venue (schools, churches, youth organizations). The Steering Committee meets again on March 27, 1997 in Lansing. If you have ideas for the following areas, please let Kathy know. National Conference on Philanthropy: Thoughtful, credible essayists/thinkers on the topics of what content should be taught; the issues and philosophy behind service and experiential learning; child moral/ethical development by age; and student learning assessment. Creative. Excellent K-12 Teachers: We will be sending an RFP to schools by the end of March. If you know of teachers with experience and skill in curriculum design (particularly in the social studies or language arts), we would be happy to send an RFP directly to them. Curriculum Content: We will be providing teachers with background regarding the content of philanthropy. Any materials which have been important to you regarding the history, philosophy, traditions, economics, political role, vignettes or related content material on citizen "private action for the public good" may be very helpful to us . We would be interested in your "Top Ten" reading list. Related Curriculum Support: If you know of particularly good children's, youth, adolescent, adult literature/film/theater/music which support the teaching of giving and serving, we would like to be made aware of these resources. We are starting to collect this material. Service Club: If you know of a national service club with a strong chapter system in Michigan who might be interested in providing state led, but locally implemented support to the teachers and schools, we would be interested in a contact person. f: kagard :k-12: gencorres: 97CMFBd � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

On February 11, 1997, the CMF Audit and Finance Committee reviewed and approved the Balance Sheet & Statement of Activities for the nine months ended December 31, 1996, for CMF, MCFYP and the Michigan AIDS Fund. Balance Sheet Since the last Board of Trustees meeting the following line items have seen a significant change in their balances: • the Accounts Receivable balance for the CMF Core operations has increased by $150,000 due to an additional member contribution that was received in February, 1997 and • the majority of the Accounts Payable balance for the CMF Core operations is due to outstanding invoices associated with the CMF Annual Conference. To provide for long-term programming opportunities, CMF has set up the Russell G. Mawby and William Allen Endowment Funds, and MCFYP has set aside interest earnings into the Board Designated Fund which have the following balances as of December 31, 1996: $1,454,351 • Allen & Mawby Endowment Funds $1,887,556 • MCFYP Board Designated Fund Consolidated Statement of Activities & Changes in Net Assets · This report is presented to the CMF Board to provide an overall view of the financial structure ofCMF and its supporting organizations. The respective boards ofMCFYP and the Michigan AIDS Fund are responsible for reviewing and approving their individual statements. One ofthe functions of the CMF Audit & Finance Committee is to perform a detailed review of the supporting organizations on a quarterly basis, and report on any significant items to the CMF Board. dlindberglboardmet/m03l397 �10 CMF Special Projects As part ofCMF's mission, special projects are undertaken to increase and enhance philanthropy in the State of Michigan. In preparing the budgets for these projects, management prepares an estimate of administrative time and expenses as part of the grant proposal. To staff these projects CMF will use both outside consultants and existing CMF staff. As ofDecember 31, 1996, there are approximately ten special projects undeiWay: Statement of Activities and Changes in Net Assets CMF Core Operations Note 1: Member Contributions Member Contributions have increased over the prior year and the 1996-97 budget amount, due to the increased asset levels of our members and 1995-96 being the phase in period for the revised dues structure. Note 2: Conference Income Due to the record number of participants, the 1996 CMF Annual Conference is anticipated to generate a surplus of approximately $10,000. Note 3: Equipment & Furniture The prior year amount of$134,000 represents the cost to purchase additional office space for the CMF Grand Haven office. Note 4: Computer Consulting fees to fix hardware and software problems over the past six months will result in computer expenses being over budget. To prevent these problems from recurring, the systems administrator and hardware consultants have been replaced by a local consultant who is available on an as needed basis. With the addition of the new computer consultant, 95% of the computer problems have been eliminated. Note 5: Professional & Contracted Services The hiring of a data input person to work on the lOth Edition ofthe Directory accounts for the increase from the prior year. dlindberglboardmet/m031397 �11 Council of Michigan Foundations & Supporting Organizations Consolidated Balance Sheet December 31 , 1996 II Core& Special Projects ASSETS Cash Investments Due From Other Funds CMF Allen & Mawby Endowment Funds 425,197 65,802 Property, Plant & Equipment Accumulated Depree Net Furniture & Equip 1,099,530 (288,433) 811,097 Prepaid Expenses Accounts Receivable Accrued Interest Receivable Total Assets 2,725 251,499 LIABILITIES Accounts Payable Deferred Income Accrued Grants Payable Total Liabilities NET ASSETS (FUND BALANCE) Unrestricted & Temp Restrict.

Communications/Publications 1996 Survey of Michigan Philanthropy/Information for Seeking Foundation and Corporate Grants The Survey/Information booklet was mailed to Members as a part ofthe February 19th "Memo to Members." Excerpted from lOth edition, Michigan Foundation Directory data, the Survey reports on one year of giving by private, community and corporate foundations in Michigan. We are pleased to report an increase in the number of foundations to 1270, growth in assets by over 17%, and a 6.6% increase in grantmaking dollars for charitable purposes. The Common Grant Application Form is included as an information tool in the publication. The Michigan Foundation Directory The long awaited lOth Edition will be ready for mailing on March 17.

Nonprofit Management Training Resource Catalog With support from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation this Catalog, featuring training resources that are available to nonprofit practitioners through the state's 15 universities, will be expanded by July to include the activities of both private colleges and community colleges. The catalog was developed through a collaboration of the Presidents Council, State Universities of Michigan, the Michigan Nonprofit Association, and CMF. Copies of the first edition of the catalog have been distributed to CMF members for them to share with appropriate grantees whom they feel might benefit from its information. Information Services The CMF staff continues to provide support for the information and research needs of members, trustees and staff.

Links are provided to our members, as well as other useful sites of interest to our members. We plan to upload the "Information for Seeking Foundation and Corporate Grants" piece, combined with the "Survey of Michigan Foundation Philanthropy", to make those easily "down-loadable" on our next update. In addition, we will begin accepting Visa and Mastercard charges for publication orders over the Internet next month. Fax on Demand Two "800-numbers" have been set up, one for members and one for non-members, to retrieve documents from CMF via fax. Sixty five documents are available. Non-members will be charged fees to retrieve documents via Fax-on-Demand- recovering our costs. Listservs Two listservs have been established, one for First Pearl users and one for Community Foundation Program Officers. These are essentially electronic discussion groups which use e-mail as a means of communication. CD Staff are exploring the production of a CD as a means of easily disseminating sample documents to our Community Foundation members, and offering them for sale to non-members. Increasing Philanthropy & Special Initiatives Outreach to Advisors CMF has formed a statewide advisory panel of attorneys, accountants, financial advisors and insurance agents to assist us in preparing materials to support advisor work with clients of wealth interested in participating in organized philanthropy. All eleven individuals invited to participate on the panel accepted the invitation with enthusiasm. The committee will meet for the first time this summer to review draft publications for advisors and their clients, and to devise strategies for next steps which will include presentations to peer groups, national and statewide planned giving councils, and professional graduate schools. The interview phase for this effort has recently undergone an evaluation by FERA which is providing both informative and positive feedback. Advisor referrals to CMF have increased to approximately 3 per month in recent months. Staff is also working with a Wingspread group inventorying national resources to support advisor education efforts, and with a Regional Forum group in developing a plan to create a partnership with State Bar Associations. A lot developing- we will keep you informed as we progress! Great Lakes Community Foundation Environmental Collaborative The Project Advisory Committee continues to meet monthly. Plans are underway to have the second Annual Seminar held in conjunction with the Annual COF Conference for Community Foundations in Chicago this September. The C. S. Mott Foundation has increased the size of the grant request for this Project under consideration to $475,000. 5 �89 Violence Prevention Project Eighteen YACs (youth advisory committees) have now received matching grants totaling $20,000 from this C. S. Mott Foundation funded project. Five ofthe Projects are tied to the successful Flint Youth Theater Seventh Dream production featured at both the National Youth Philanthropy Conference this past summer and CMF's 24th Annual Conference last fall. The five host community foundations are scheduled to be selected by May 1. The regional funders meetings will likely take place in the fall. Judging for the Wilmer Shield Rich Awards Several members of the Council of Michigan Foundations are serving as judges for this year's Communications Network in Philanthropy's (CNIP) "Wilmer Shield Rich Awards for Excellence in Communication. " Anonymous CMF Members are currently reviewing a total of 31 annual reports produced by some of the nation's largest community foundations and will soon submit their award recommendations. The awards are to be presented by CNIP during the Council on Foundations' Annual Conference in May. Community Foundation Projects MCFYP On March 1, 1997, the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (MCFYP) had deadlines for reporting on successful completion of previous challenge grant rounds. Reports from 25 community foundations were received for a total of $3 million in Kellogg Challenge Grant dollars to be paid to Michigan community foundation youth funds. It is anticipated that applications from over 50 community foundations will be received and processed for the final challenge grant round ofMCFYP on April1, 1997. These applications will be reviewed by the MCFYP Board of Trustees at their June 12, 1997 meeting. Also to be discussed at the Board Meeting will be a revision of the 5 year budget, designed to phase and tier the technical assistance funds for MCFYP over a 5 year period; a review and acceptance of"Best Practices" for Youth Advisory Committees; and a discussion of rules for the $3 million incentive grants for meeting community foundation common needs. YOUTH LEADERSHIP CAMP, July 27 - 29 YAC members and advisors will be returning to Camp Miniwanca this summer to explore "Personal Responsibility and the WKKF Challenge." Separate tracts are being developed for older experienced YAC members, the new members, and the advisors to better enhance the experiential learning opportunities. Camp enrollment will be limited to 150 youth participants. Primary Group Leaders are being actively sought from the alumni of YAC's throughout the state. Cost will be based upon the youth endowment size: over $200,000- $125; under $200,000- $75; 1st year YAC's or YAC's with no grantmaking experience - $50. YAC ADVISOR TRAINING The Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation and the St. Ignace Community Fund will host advisor trainings on March 18 and 21 respectively. Featured will be sessions on "Tools and Tips 6 �90 for Effective Group Facilitation," and "Risk Management- Keeping it Safe." Both topics are being offered as a response to repeated requests from the field. ADVISOR COLLABORATIVES (ROUNDTABLES) Saginaw, Kalamazoo, and the Grand Traverse Community Foundations will be hosting advisor roundtables on April21, 23, and 25 respectively. These afternoon sessions will be informally structured to provide a free flowing exchange of ideas on what has been successful, what has allowed the success to occur, and common challenges advisors face in working with their YAC's. REGIONAL YOUTH LEADERSHIP TRAINING Jackson, Fremont, Petoskey/Harbor Springs, and Marquette will host fall YAC Regional Trainings in early October. Emphasis will be given to common concerns centered around the orientation of new members to the operations of a YAC. ADVISOR CONFERENCE CALLS More often than not, the YAC advisor is a volunteer who has difficulty getting away to attend trainings offered. Thus, this fall we will link advisors through conference calls for topical discussions, and review of sections of the "Resources and Guidelines Manual for Establishing a YAC." Michigan CARES The six pilot communities involved in the Michigan CARES project to design sustainable volunteer and service plans for their communities are now completing the first year of Phase II. Continued funding is available through a grant from the W.K. Kellogg Foundation to the Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) for further implementation of the demonstration projects and planning process. Proposals from all six communities have been submitted and approved and first year funding has been distributed. Deadlines for second year Phase II proposals are due April 15, 1997 and will be reviewed by CMF and MCSC staff. Each Michigan CARES community is eligible for $10,000 in year two to continue the coordination and support of local CARES initiatives. Michigan CARES has been replicated in Calhoun County in the past year. Funding provided by the KYIP ofW.K. Kellogg Foundation to MCSC is helping the 3 community foundations and 2 geographic component funds in Calhoun County find common ground for working together to address youth volunteer and service issues. Marv King, CMF Youth Project Consultant, has been retained by Calhoun CARES to provide leadership for the project. Initial activities will involve county-wide initiatives around the community foundation YAC programs, including recruitment, retention, leadership training, needs assessments, fund development and evaluation. The process for institutionalizing the YAC program will be documented by FERA for future replication in other geographic areas in Michigan. ~- Upper Peninsula Community Foundation Alliance With 10 community foundations and 10 affiliate funds in the U.P., the challenge during the past year has been to both serve this fragile group and also to help them in their efforts to raise the matching funds for the Kellogg Challenge. The MCFYP Board has approved two years of support from the special "Common Needs" funds to allow CMF to hire two full-time staff and 7 �91 part-time support staff to provide assistance. Technical assistance efforts have focused on activities such as assisting with MCFYP applications and obtaining a VISTA volunteer for the YACs. Fund development efforts have focused on workshops by staff from the Indiana University School of Philanthropy and presentations to more than 40 corporate leaders, individuals and estate planners. The cultivation process has begun, but staff have played a role behind the scenes in two $100,000 gifts. The U.P. Community Foundation has added the word Alliance and now includes Board members from each of the 9 other community foundations. There is now credible momentum in the U.P.! i: ewp:committee/bd-o-tr/ pres3 -13 ·,. 8 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Joining me were CMF Trustees Laura Davis, Jack Hopkins, Bill Richardson, Kari Schlachtenhaufen, Ira Strumwasser, Maureen Smyth, and Dottie Johnson. Other participants included David Haynes, Bari Johnson, Dennis Marvin, Jim McHale, Joel Orosz, and Dorothy Reynolds. We met with Senator Abraham, eleven Representatives, including Congressmen David Camp, John Dingell, Vern Ehlers, Peter Hoekstra, Dale Kildee, Sander Levin, Nick Smith, Fred Upton, and Congresswomen Carolyn Kilpatrick, Lynn Rivers, and Debbie Stabenow. · we met with aides to Senator Levin and aides to five Congressmen. We were pleased with the response, particularly in light of having both sessions of Congress in session, as well as the late Ambassador Harriman's funeral service. On Wednesday evening, February 12, 1997, Congressman David Camp, (Midland), House Ways & Means Committee Member, and co-sponsor of H.R. 519, joined us for dinner and shared his insights on Congress' view of foundations and nonprofits. Also present were John Edie and Anne Babcock, of COF, who among other things noted that other regional associations (RAGS) had met the previous week with representatives from 58 Congressional offices. H.R. 519/S. 194 Private Foundation Legislation Time is of the essence, as we seek cosponsors to legislation allowing gifts of publicly traded stock to private foundations at the market value, rather than the cost basis. The current law expires May 31, 1997. Cosponsors to date include: S.l94: Senators Abraham (MI), Chafee, D'Amato, Kyl, Moynihan, Snowe, and Hatch H.R. 519: Congressmen Camp (Midland), Canady, Cardin, Crane, Ehlers (Grand Rapids), Kildee (Flint), Porter, and Upton (St. Joseph) We received commitments from all other Michigan Congressmen, and we are following up to be certain each office calls in their support to the aides of Congressmen Camp and Cardin, and Senators Chafee and Moynihan. (No Michigan defections so far.) �19 Packets were distributed to each Congressional office, and a copy of Edition X of the Michigan Foundation Directory will be mailed later this month. STATE ISSUES Community Foundation Definition CMF is working with the Department of the Treasury to gain support of a definition of a community foundation, which is especially important relative to the decision to grant the community foundation tax credit. There are further ramifications which will potentially effect CMF membership policies. David Haynes, Public Affairs Associates, has been helpful in securing a freeze on the issuance of further certifications of community foundations, until the definition issue is resolved. H. B. 4091 Community Foundation Tax Credit A bill to remove the sunset (every three years) from the community foundation single business corporate tax credit has passed the House Taxation Committee, March 4, 1997, unanimously. Introduced by Representative Curtis (Flint), it is a companion bill to the legislation passed in December 1996, removing the sunset from the community foundation tax credit for individuals. This means the tax credit is permanent for individuals as are the tax credits for universities, public libraries, public broadcasting stations, etc. Of course the legislature can remove tax credits, but it is very unlikely considering the public support. Lansing Seminar On March 3, 1997, CMF sponsored the biennial grantsmanship seminar for legislative aides in Lansing. The 126 attendees heard from Mariam Noland, Bob Hencey (Overview of Philanthropy), Dennis Marvin (Consumers Energy Foundation), Benita Melton (C. S. Mott Foundation), Kari Schlachtenhaufen (The Skillman Foundation) and Diana Sieger (The Grand Rapids Foundation). Participants received packets, and thanks to the CMF Allen Legislative Fund, will receive complimentary copies of the Michigan Foundation Directory, Edition X. The Seminar is always well-received. CMF LEGISLATIVE GOAL STATEMENT For your information, we are enclosing a copy of the current statement, revised and approved by the board at the October trustees' meeting. Of course we have removed the four goals accomplished last year, and have added the new approved goals. We anticipate making good progress in 1997, working with CMF Members, and our many partners, including the Council on Foundations, 24 other Regional Associations of Grantmakers, the Independent Sector, the Michigan Nonprofit Association, and others. i:ewp:brdtrst/govt-3-4 ~ �20 COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS Legislative Statement March 1997 Philanthropy in America Foundation and corporate giving has long been a unique part of American society. In 1995, foundations and corporations donated more than $17.8 billion for charitable causes and services, including the arts, United Way, colleges and universities, libraries, and programs for the elderly, and the needy. Today, foundations and corporations are being challenged to increase their support and charitable donations in the face of major cutbacks by local, state, and federal governments. ~· In the face of this challenge, it is apparent that much can and should be done to encourage the creation and growth of new foundations and corporate giving programs. Unfortunately, the 1969 Tax Act, while introducing a number of reforms, also erected a number of major barriers to foundation philanthropy. These include the provisions that serve as disincentives for the creation of new foundations, as well as provisions that discourage charitable donations to foundations. After more than 27 years of experience, it is also apparent that a number of Internal Revenue Service Code regulations, based on the 1969 Tax Act, have proven to be unnecessarily restrictive on the grantmaking effectiveness of Michigan's more than 1,200 foundations, as well as the more than 38,807 other foundations in communities across the United States. If foundations and corporations are to expand their support of important social needs and programs, the Council of Michigan Foundations must work actively to inform the general public, as well as state and federal legislators and other policy-makers, on these important issues. It must seek support for legislative changes that encourage the role and effectiveness of foundation and corporate philanthropy. That is the purpose of the following Council of Michigan Foundations' Government Relations Program. Background: CMF Government Relations Program In 1977, the Council of Michigan Foundations' (CMF) Members directed the Board ofTrustees to develop a public information program that would support and encourage Michigan foundation philanthropy. This program was to include a plan to communicate with public policy-makers. A Conference Mandate (Government Relations) Committee was established to implement the program. �21 Since then, the Government Relations Committee has surveyed the CMF Members in their legislative interests and priorities on a timely basis. In 1980, CMF also launched a "Developing Good Will Program" to assist in this public information effort. CMF has worked with foundation and corporate Members, the Council on Foundations, and other regional associations of grantmakers to enhance the understanding of public policy-makers about foundation philanthropy and to bring about appropriate legislative changes in laws and regulations. As a result of these efforts by CMF and others, the mandatory payout requirement has been lowered by Congress to a flat five percent of foundation assets, the excise tax on foundations has been reduced, the .65 limit on grant administrative expenses has terminated, fair regulations on lobbying have been issued, and at the state level, a tax credit for individual and corporate contributions to community foundations has been enacted. The 1984 Tax Bill relaxed limitations on gifts to private foundations. Other changes since then include amending the law, whereby the gain portion of gifts of appreciated property is not subject to the alternative minimum tax reduction and an affidavit process for simplifying private foundation grants to non-U. S. charities. In the last year, two regulatory items have been resolved, and legislation has been passed relating to gifts of publiclytraded stock to private foundations and ownership of S-Corporation stock. On a state level, CMF has been instrumental in helping to limit the tort liability of volunteers of nonprofit corporations, to repeal the state inheritance tax to keep donors and their foundations in Michigan, and to support the repeal of the Michigan Intangibles Tax. The CMF Board of Trustees approved the initial Legislative Statement on March 1, 1979. Revised statements were approved September 19, 1980; January 27, 1982; May 10, 1983; June 14, 1985; April12, 1988; February 25 , 1992; November 4, 1992; November 8, 1995, and October 30, 1996. Goal: Support the continuation and expansion of tax incentives for the creation of new foundations and gifts to existing foundations. National Legislative Issues 1. Goal: Make permanent the full deductibility of publicly-traded stock given to private foundations . Explanation: The Tax Reform Act of 1984 changed the law to permit living donors to make gifts of publicly-traded stock to private foundations and to be able to deduct the full fair market value. Unfortunately, the change expired at the end of 1994. Legislation was passed (August 1996) allowing gifts of appreciated stock to new or existing public �22 foundations at fair market value between July 1, 1996 and May 31, 1997. It is CMF's goal to make this legislation permanent. 2. Goal: Change the limitation on gifts to a private foundation from 20 percent to 50 percent. Explanation: Under existing law, the amount deductible by an individual taxpayer for contributions to private non-operating foundations is computed as a percentage of the donor's contribution base (in most cases, his or her adjusted gross income). An individual may deduct only 20 percent of the gifts of appreciated property or 30 percent of gifts of cash. On the other hand, an individual taxpayer can deduct up to 50 percent of his contribution base for cash (and 30 percent for appreciated property) for gifts to public charities. 3. Goal: Increase the deduction allowed a taxpayer for a gift to a private foundation of certain capital gain property. Explanation: Currently, individual taxpayers may deduct the full fair market value of a gift of appreciated property in the form of publicly-traded stock, if the gift is less than 10 percent of the outstanding stock of the company. However, in other cases, such as privately-held stock, the amount of deduction continues to be limited to tli'e donor's cost or basis in the stock if the gift is to a private non-operating foundation. The same gift to a public charity entitles the taxpayer to a full fair market value deduction. 4. Goal: Pursue legislation which would allow the establishment of a common fund for private and community foundations. Explanation: Currently, foundations are not allowed by law to pool their assets. Ideally, private and community foundations could have an investment vehicle which would allow for pooling with potentially greater investment returns and administrative efficiencies. Such a fund is allowed for colleges and universities. 5. Goal: Maintain the private foundation payout rate at not more than 5 percent to protect the real value of foundations' grantmaking capability. Explanation: In order to preserve the "real" grantmaking capacity of a private foundation, it is important that inflation be taken into consideration. A portion of the annual return should be returned to principal. 6. Goal: Reduce excise tax to flat 1 percent instead of the present complicated formula which permits, in some cases, a reduction from 2 to 1 percent. Explanation: The 1984 Tax Act allows the excise tax on investment income to be reduced from 2 to 1 percent if a foundation's payout for the year in question equals or �23 exceeds an amount equal to the year's assets, times the average payout percentage for the five years, plus 1 percent of the foundation's net investment income. 7. Goal: Prevent further efforts to reduce the usefulness of the charitable deduction and repeal the 3 percent floor on itemized deductions. Explanation: In 1990, after initially considering a cap on all itemized deductions, the Congress approved a 3 percent floor in deductions. This floor was scheduled to expire at the end of 1995 but was made permanent effective in 1993. 8. Goal: Establish a small grant rule which would allow grants for charitable purposes of less than $25,000 to be free of "expenditure responsibility." Explanation: Currently, if a private foundation makes a grant for a charitable purpose to an organization without IRS tax classification as a public charity, the foundation must assume "expenditure responsibility." This is a costly and time consuming function for private foundations, and most will not undertake the responsibility. Others are discouraged about the amount of paperwork necessary for a grant less than $25,000. 9. Goal: Limit lineal descendants who are "disqualified persons" at the level of grandchildren. Explanation: In 1984, the law was amended to limit "disqualified persons" to substantial contributors to a foundation and their children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and their spouses. The amendment provided that substantial contributors will no longer be considered "disqualified contributors" if over a ten-year period, they make no further contributions to the foundation and do not manage it, and their total contributions are insignificant in light of substantial growth in foundation assets. However, there is still no logical rationale - - or examples of abuse - - to justify the inclusion of lineal descendants beyond the level of grandchildren. 10. Goal: Modify the law to permit the "out of corpus" requirement to be met by a foreign grantee if sufficient documentation is provided showing that the full amount of the grant was spent for the specified purposes within 12 months after the year the grant was made. Explanation: When making grants to some foreign charities, private foundations are required to treat them as private foundations . Any grant from a private foundation to another private foundation requires that the amount granted "flow through" the grantee and out as qualifying distributions that are made "out of corpus" by the end of the following year. The purpose for this rule is to prevent a foundation from avoiding the payout rule by having one private foundation give to another who then simply adds the grant to its endowment (corpus), with charitable grantees receiving no benefit. In the foreign grant context, the grantee rarely has any endowment and totally misunderstands the concept of "out of corpus." �24 11. Goal: Protect charitable gift annuities. Explanation: Many public charities, including community foundations, offer donors the opportunity to contribute through charitable gift annuities. Under these arrangements, donors make a substantial gift of property to the charity and receive a fixed income from that gift for life. At death, the balance of the gift passes to the charity. Legislation was passed favorable to protecting charitable gift annuities, however, it is being challenged in court. 12. Goal: Amend the generation-skipping transfer tax law to extend the predeceased parent exclusion to charitable lead and remainder trusts. Explanation: The Internal Revenue Code levies a substantial tax, called the GenerationSkipping Transfer Tax (GSTT), on a donor who distributes property to a grandchild while the donor's child is still living. This tax is in the 55 percent range, and is levied on top of the regular estate or gift taxes which may be applicable ... a combination which can total almost 80 percent. Similarly, a donor may not under current law leave the lead or remainder interest from a charitable trust to a grandchild without incurring this tax. Current law does include a "predeceased parent exclusion" which eliminates the GSTT in cases where the donor desires to leave property to his or her grandchild, and the grandchild's parent (the child of the donor) is deceased at the time of the transfer. But this exclusion now applies only to direct gifts and bequests and not to any type of transfer from a charitable trust. Charitable lead and remainder trusts have become important sources of support for many charitable organizations, and the impact of the GSTT is a huge disincentive for donors who would otherwise create such charitable vehicles. 13. Goal: Change the due date of the first estimated tax payment so that it coincides with the due date of the Form 990-PF. Explanation: Private foundations now must pay estimated taxes on their investment income in quarterly payments. However, the first payment each year is due three and a half months after the tax year while the tax return is not due until a month later. 14. Goal: Secure passage of legislation providing a charitable deduction for non-itemizers. Explanation: Most taxpayers no longer file the long tax form which permits itemized deductions; instead they file the short form which allows only a standard deduction. From 1983 to 1986 non-itemizers were permitted to take the standard deduction plus itemize charitable contributions within certain limits. �25 15. Goal: Support reasonable limits on the degree to which foundations and charities can lobby or otherwise influence public policy decisions and oppose unreasonable limits that adversely affect grantmaking. Explanation: Oppose unreasonable and unnecessary regulatory burdens placed on charitable and nonprofit grantees of foundations and corporate giving programs and unreasonable limits which adversely impact grantmakers' ability to fund research and evaluation. While progress has been made, continuous monitoring is essential. 16. Goal: Support legislation to eliminate the classification of realized gains and income, derived from leveraged real estate investments by foundations, as unrelated business taxable income. Explanation: Foundations and non-profit organizations are significant investors in the real estate market. Income derived from leveraged real estate investments, owned directly or through partnerships, is currently taxed as unrelated business taxable income (UBTI). Legislation would have private foundations treated in the the same manner as educational organizations and qualified pension plans, which since 1980 have been exempt from the debt-financed property rules with respect to the acquisition of certain real property. State Legislative Issues 1. Goal: Monitor changes to tax policy pertaining to community benefits as it relates to non-profits. Explanation: Legislation has been proposed in Colorado, Pennsylvania and Texas which threatens the tax exemption of charitable organizations. CMF, working with others, will closely monitor any related efforts in Michigan. 2. Goal: Support legislation encouraging a tax-deduction for charitable contributions from individuals. Explanation: Other states have found a tax deduction favorable to encouraging additional gifts to charities, educational institutions, churches, etc., by individuals. A limited tax deduction is proposed. 3. Goal: Support continuation of the State Community Foundation Tax Credit. Explanation: Since 1988, individual and corporate donors to a certified community foundation have been eligible for a state tax credit from the state income or single business tax. �26 4. Goal: Support legislation allowing gifts and bequests received by units of local government to be gifted to community foundations. Explanation: While a number of community foundations have funds established by local public libraries and school systems for scholarships, Michigan law is currently "grey" on this issue. New legislation, similar to that passed in Indiana, is being proposed to allow such gifts to community foundations. This will assist particularly with partnerships needed to sustain community foundations in rural communities. 5. Goal: Support legislation further defining a community foundation in the State Tax Code. Explanation: A community foundation is currently defined in the State Tax Code pertaining to the state community foundation tax credit. It is important to further define a community foundation in order to promote permanency and accountability while avoiding duplication of effort in communities and regions of the state. 6. Goal: Amend the State Insurance Code to allow a charitable organization, as described in Section 501(c) 3 of the Federal Internal Revenue Code, to have an insurable interest in the life of an individual who gave written consent to the ownership or purchase of a policy on his or her life Explanation: Currently state law does not allow charitable organizations to have an insurable interest in the ownership or purchase of life insurance. Some individuals wish to benefit a charitable organization by use of this vehicle. CMF Activity 1.

David Campbell, Program Chair Re: 25th Annual Conference Program Committee: The first meeting of the 25th Annual CMF Conference Program Committee was held on Friday, February 14, 1997. Conference Date: November 5-7, 1997 Location: Westin Hotel, Detroit Honorary Chair: To be announced Conference Chair: C. David Campbell, Executive Director, McGregor Fund Host Committee Co-chairs: Julie F. Cummings, Trustee, Max M. & Marjorie S. Fisher Foundation Howard Sims, Trustee, CFSEM and Trustee, W.K. Kellogg Foundation Leonard W. Smith, President, The Skillman Foundation The Program Committee enthusiastically endorsed "Connecting People & Potential: A View to the 21st Century" as the 25th Annual CMF Conference theme. Bob Hencey; Director of Special Projects, W.K. Kellogg Foundation, eloquently put the theme into perspective by saying "We in the grantmaking field can best prepare for the future challenges by continuing to adequately equip ourselves with the necessary, even essential knowledge, creativity and understanding required by responsible philanthropy as it moves into the coming century. There should be no question, we are fortunate to be present for the crossing of the hundred-year threshold. There are wonderful tasks and exciting opportunities ahead for us. Let us begin this challenge by "Connecting People & Potential: A View to the 21st Century." A multitude of excellent speakers were suggested for plenaries. Inquiries and letters of invitation have been sent to George Bush, Colin Powell, George Soros and Oprah Winfrey. An opening panel on Detroit's urban renewal is being explored as well. Several areas of interest that emerged include land use, rural development, devolution and welfare reform, building philanthropic resources, etc. Technical and topic sessions include investments, grantmaking basics, ethics, technology, development of community and social indicators as well as the usual sessions for family foundations, community �29 foundations, corporate giving, Washington/Lansing Update, etc. The Program Committee is considering several changes to the format which will be shared with the board at the June meeting along with a complete schedule of sessions, times and events. The Committee's next meeting is March 25, 1997. The conference flyer announcing the date and theme is under development and will be mailed by the end of March to CEO's, trustees, corporate giving officers, staff members, investment officers, attorneys, donors and volunteers.
