Marshall, ill Peter P. Thurber Re: Investment Committee Report . Formation of a Joint Investment Committee RESOLVED: That the CMF Board ofTrustees approve the formation of a Joint Investment Committee to serve MCFYP, CMF, and the Michigan AIDS Fund. With the Committee to consist of the current MCFYP Investment Committee members and the appointment of two additional members, one from CMF and one from the Michigan AIDS Fund. In previous years the MCFYP and CMF Investment Committees have operated as separate entities. As fund balances increase, long term investment opportunities will become more common place. These changes will require a more in depth analysis of the various investment opportunities available. The formation of a joint investment committee will provide additional scrutiny from a increased committee base, thus enhancing our goal of meeting each fund's goals and objectives. At the same time this will allow us to provide the highest possible rate of return without jeopardizing the security ofthose funds. Current committee members include: - Mr. Robert E. Swaney, Jr., Chair; Vice President & Chieflnvestment Officer; Charles Stewart Mott Foundation Mr. Edward M. Hunia, Senior Vice President and Treasurer; The Kresge Foundation Mr. Donald A Lindow, First Vice President Corporate Trust; NBD Mr. John E.

The purpose of the trip was to: • Give each Congressman a printout indicating all the foundations in his district and a new Michigan Foundation Directory, Edition IX. • Update each Congressman on the news oflocal foundations/corporate giving programs. • Request support oflegislation. --The composite bill would include three provisions, one of which expired in 1994 (the ability ofliving donors to deduct the full fair market value of publicly traded stock to private foundations). --A bill which would permit the establishment of a common investment fund for private and community foundations). Each Congressman received a complimentary copy of the Ninth Edition of the Michigan Foundation Directory, paid for by the Allen Fund, and a computerized printout of all the foundations in their District, by assets and grants. The delegation met with all sixteen Congressional Offices including personal visits with Senator Spence Abraham, several Congressmen and some Aides. We attended the Council on Foundations/Regional Initiative Luncheon where Congressman David Camp (R-Midland) addressed the Regional Association of Grantmakers Meeting. �27 Don Parfet hosted the Cotu1cil ofMichigan Foundations' Members at the University of Michigan Washington DC Breakfast, attended by several Congressmen. TI1is is the second year both events were s~;heduled the same day. Cotu1cil ofMichigan FoW1dations' members have secured eight cosponsors to H.

Charitable Deduction In compliance with CMF Legislative Goal Statement, CMF is seeking cosponsors in the House for H. R. 1-198. \\ hich would amend the tax code to I) retum the charitable deduction to those who do not itemize their deductions, and 2) remove the charitable deductions from the current three percent floor on all itemized deductions. �28 STATE ISSUES Community Foundations ~ Escheats Funds For several years the community foundations have been considering escheat funds as possible sources for endowment building. Escheats are dollars which return to the State because the owner does not claim them and cannot be located, for example the balances on small checking accounts or unclaimed race track winnings. Through the generous support of John Frey and the Frey Foundation, a comprehensive study of the escheat opportunity has been completed. CMF will review the study and has engaged David Haynes of Public Affairs Associates to move the idea forward and seek passage of requisite legislation if feasible and desirable. Deductibility of Charitable Contributions Under the leadership of the Michigan Nonprofit Forum, C::MF is working with other charitable associations to gain support for a bill which would allow a state income tax deduction for all charitable contributions. This deduction would not replace any of the charitable tax credits. It is estimated to cost the state $32 Million. Legislation has not as yet been introduced. i:ev.p/brdbk/govt/tab5 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Investments are held in money market accounts to provide liquidity for current grant making and operational needs. U.S. Treasury Securities are invested to mature at intervals when grant payouts are expected to be made. These securities are currently yielding approximatley 6.5%. Accrued Interest represents interest earned on the U.S. Treasury Securities, through March 31,1995, that we have not yet received. Statement of Changes In Activity Additional Contributions Contributions were less than budgeted for the Michigan AIDS Fund due to the 1994-95 Mott Foundation grant (of $150,00) actually being received in 1993-94. Investment Income Investment income was greater than budget due to interest rates being higher than anticipated. Host Committee Revenue This represents contributions received to handle special arrangements (i.e., receptions, tours, etc.) for the CMF annual conference. Due to the Detroit location of the conference, corporate sponsorship was greater than anticipated. Directory Sales In the past we shared the publication fees and costs with the League for Human Services. For fiscal year 1994-95 this publication was brought 100% in-house, which resulted in the increased revenue. Software Installation Fees This represents a $1,000 fmders fee we receive from NPO Solutions for each installation ofFIMS. i/jw/Lindberg/Boardlnfo/Memo529 �12 Telephone These costs were greater than budget due to increased usage of conference calling for various meetings. Mailing Postage and Supplies General Operations - postage and supplies are over budget due to internalizing the publication of the Directory and increasing our services to our members. MCFYP postage and supplies are over budget due to the increase in services requested by the community foundation members. Professional Services $8,000 of the variance from budget was due to temporary help hired to help with the publication of the Directory. $7,700 of the variance is due evaluation services associated with Michigan CARES and the Upper Peninsula II project. 90's Program Opportunities This represents our Increase Philanthropy costs, phone system installation, office renovation, computer project and the strategic plan costs. The variance from budget was due to the computer project costs of $49,339 which were funded by grants received from MCFYP. Office Space Purchased This represents office space purchased for CMF. This was made possible through the use of interest income generated by the MCFYP Challenge Grant Fund. Small Conference Small conference expenses were under budget due to the National Youth Conference not taking place this past year. Grants MCFYP grants were greater than budget due to community foundations meeting their challenges sooner than anticipated. Transfers Transfer occurred predominately between MCFYP and CMF. These transfers financed the purchase of additional office space and related renovation, as well as the completion of the computerization of CMF offices. iljw/Lindberg/Boardlnfo/Memo529 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Hopkins Re: Community Foundation Committee Report RESOLVED: An investigation for the establishment of a supporting organization for environmental funding for community foundations begin. Background: Great Lakes Basin Project Since 1993, the community foundations in the Great Lakes Basin, led by the community foundations in Michigan, have been exploring the needs and grantmaking opportunities related to the preservation and restoration of the Great Lakes. This interest resulted in a Wingspread Conference in the winter 1994, attended by community foundation representatives from throughout the basin. The conference was sponsored by the Great Lakes Protection Fund, the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, the W. K Kellogg Foundation and selected community foundations. Representatives from each of the States within the basin and the Canadian provinces attended. Following the conference, a delegate from each state and the Canadians were selected to draft a joint venture proposal on environmental grantmaking, specifically for the 91 Great Lakes community foundations within the basin. These delegates met once in Chicago and once at the annual Council on Foundations' community foundation meeting in order to draft the proposed joint venture. The Executive Summary ofthis proposal follows. The participating community foundations agreed that the Council of Michigan Foundations should serve as the initial project coordinator because of the number of community foundations in Michigan (51 of the 91 ), the importance of the State of Michigan to the health ofthe basin, the strategic importance of Governor Engler to the lake system, and CMF' s experience in managing similar collaborative efforts. This progress was reported to the CMF Board of Trustees in November of 1994 and received approval to continue. �40 Saginaw Bay Watershed On a parallel track, the Bay Area Community Foundation (Bay City, Michigan) has been involved in the redistribution of environmental fines to communities serving the Saginaw Bay Watershed. This distribution of fines to local communities for environmental projects is supported by the Department ofNatural Resources (DNR). The DNR feels that most heavy industrial pollution is now under control with current regulations. The continuing threat to the lakes is in the individual decisions made by people in communities within the basin. The DNR would like to see more environmental education at the local level. Given the experience of community foundations in grantmaking, their local leadership, political neutrality, ability to build endowment funds, and impartiality, the DNR would like to work through local community foundations. The geographic limitations of community foundation service areas are problematic given the multi-county nature of the major watersheds in the State. In the spring of 1995, the community foundations serving the Saginaw Bay watershed, representatives of the DNR and the Saginaw Bay Watershed organization came together to discuss these issues. All parties are familiar with the larger basin-wide strategy. Council ofMichigan Foundation community foundation members within the Saginaw Bay Watershed, are requesting that CMF establish an environmental supporting organization for the purpose of accepting government, and other, funding which will be redistributed either watershed-wide, or between the community foundations within the watershed. CMF members would like this effort to begin immediately as a Saginaw Bay related effort. They hope that it will expand to include other watersheds within Michigan and if funding can be secured, will offer the legal structure for the basin-wide strategy. They envision a Board composed of representatives similar to the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project, which would serve as the overall policy Board with committees organized for each of the watersheds within Michigan. The Board will provide leadership for the basin-wide project. There is the potential for substantial fines being returned to Michigan communities for the purpose oflocal environmental grantmaking, building endowments, and supporting local problem-solving. Community foundations also believe there is substantial donor interest in environmental grantmaking once they demonstrate responsible leadership in this area. This multi-state, and international effort between many community foundations in stewardship of a vital shared natural resource is unique. The Michigan community foundations, through CMF, have the experience in managing this type of joint venture collaborative project. We would like to begin. �41 Community Foundation Financial Project A small group of community foundation representatives, including a trustee from the Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan, and CMF staff visited England this spring to explore the financial donor services being offered by the Charities Aid Foundation (CAF) headquartered in London. Suzanne Feurt, Program Officer for the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation was able to arrange her schedule to be with us. While charitable law is somewhat different in the United Kingdom, the ideas successfully developed by the CAF can be very helpful to community foundations in thinking strategically about their donor and investment services. The new realities of the Fidelity marketing efforts to donors, and other for-profit financial institutions offering services similar to community foundations helps motivate this rethinking. The Community Foundation Committee is establishing a small working group to analyze the lessons from CAF, investigate the legal and service issues involved in expanding community foundation financial options, and to provide guidance on next steps. This working group will include legal and financial planning expertise from outside of the community foundation membership. Ideas include: • the establishment of a statewide "marketing" identification for donor advised funds similar to the way the VISA card is marketed. With the VISA card each banking institution handles its own program, but the "card" is marketed universally. • the potential for more direct donor control over grants made from current donor advised funds. • potential lending of capital for "stop-gap" funding for capital campaigns for nonprofits where the funds have been committed but not yet received. Progress on this initiative will be reported and any necessary action to be taken will be requested at the November Board meeting. Public/Private Partnerships The Governor's Office noted this month that a CMF joint venture with the Michigan Civil Rights Commission and the community foundations' youth committees is a state model for public/private partnerships. The Commission has made available $20,000 in matching challenge grants of$300 per community youth committee for the purpose of celebrating the values held by Dr. Martin Luther King. The Commission is providing training for youth committees regarding the value of individuals and their rights and responsibilities related to their community. Each youth committee must then commit to �42 match the $300 and to use the resulting $600 in their local communities to celebrate and/or educate regarding civil rights. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Grand Rapids, Michigan 49503 • Phone: 616 77 4 0710 Report of Independent Auditors Board of Trustees Council of Michigan Foundations We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of the Council of Michigan Foundations and supporting organizations as of March 31, 1995, and the related combined statement of activity and changes in fund balances for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Council's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We have previously audited and reported upon the March 31, 1994 financial statements, which are included in summary form for comparative information. We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. 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, 1995, and the combined results of their operations for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

To ensure observance of restrictions placed on the use of available resources, the accounts and financial activity are classified for accounting and reporting purposes into three fund groups: • General Operations is used to account for transactions, substantially all of which are unrestricted gifts and contributions and over which the Board of Trustees has full control as to use in pursuing any of the purposes of the Council of Michigan Foundations (the Council). Certain restricted funds related to operating activities are accounted for in the general operations fund group since they are not sufficiently significant to warrant recognition separately. • Supporting Organization Funds are used to account for the activity of two supporting organizations formed during fiscal1994. The supporting organizations are funded by donor-restricted grants, gifts and contributions. Grant revenue restricted by outside sources is recognized to the extent related expenses are incurred. The unexpended grant funds have been recorded as deferred revenue in the accompanying balance sheets. • Endowment Funds are used to account for gifts established with the intent that the principal be permanently invested and only the earnings thereon be expended for stated purposes. Supporting Organizations During fiscal 1994, the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project and the Michigan AIDS Fund became supporting organizations to the Council under the provisions of Section 509(a)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The accompanying financial statements of the Council have been prepared on a combined basis to include its affiliated supporting organizations because the Council's Board of Trustees exercises significant control over these organizations through the appointment of board members for each of these organizations. 6 �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note A-Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) 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. Contributed Rent and Furnishings The Council leases office space at amounts ($22,700 in 1995 and $21,800 in 1994) less than estimated fair rental value. The difference between the estimated fair rental value of the office space and total occupancy costs is approximately $37,700 in 1995 ($38,100 in 1994), which is recognized as a contribution and occupancy expense in the accompanying combined fmancial statements. The Council received furnishings for new office space in 1995 at an amount less than estimated fair market value. The difference between the estimated fair market value of the office furnishings and actual cost was approximately $35,500, which is recognized as a contribution and fixed asset costs in the accompanying combined financial statements. Reclassifications Certain amounts reported in the 1994 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 1995 presentation. Note B-Fund Purposes General Operations Amounts classified as General Operations include revenues and expenses related to the administrative and service activities of the Council. 7 �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note B-Fund Purposes (continued) Supporting Organizations Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project During fiscal 1994, the Council formed a supporting organization (Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project) for the primary purpose of administering a project commencing in 1988 that was funded by theW. K. Kellogg Foundation. The project is aimed at encouraging youth development in local communities while strengthening community foundation leadership and grant-making capacity. The Council 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 was incorporated on November 24, 1993 with a separate Board of Trustees to oversee the grant-making activities of this project. The W. K. Kellogg Foundation transferred approximately $15,000,000 to the supporting organization at the end of fiscal 1994, and transferred approximately $4,500,000 in fiscal 1995, completing theW. K. Kellogg Foundation's project commitment to this initiative. The Council also received a three-year grant totaling $350,000 from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation to assist in funding this project. The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project received the final payment of $100,000 under this award during fiscal 1995. The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project also received a $2,600,000 grant in fiscal 1995 from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation to provide funds for the computerization of Michigan's community foundations, support for foundations which 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. 8 "' - �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note B-Fund Purposes (continued) Supporting Organizations (continued) Michigan AIDS Fund The Council formed a supporting organization during fiscal 1994 for the purpose of managing and administering revenues and expenses of a collaborative funding grant program, previously administered by the Council, which acts as a vehicle for Council members and others to cooperatively fund AIDS-related projects in Michigan. The supporting organization has a separate Board of Trustees to oversee the growing activities and grant-making responsibilities of this program. Endowment Funds Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund The Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund was established during fiscal 1995 to honor Dr. Mawby's contributions to Michigan philanthropy. Dr. Mawby, Chairman and CEO of theW. K. Kellogg Foundation, was the founder 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 the Council of Michigan Foundations' efforts to enhance philanthropy and increase charitable resources. The principal amount is nonexpendable, with the investment income to be used for the stated purpose of this fund. William W. Allen Endowment Fund The purpose of this fund is to record revenues and expenses directed toward furthering 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 the Council given in honor of a former Council board member who was also the first Government Relations Chairman. The principal amount is nonexpendable, with the investment income to be used for the stated purpose of this fund. 9 �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note C-Investments Investments are presented in the combined financial statements at their aggregate market value and comprise the following: 1994 1995 U.S. Treasury securities Money market investments Investment Management account Totals Cost Market Cost Market $10,662,109 $10,630,020 6,353,292 6,353,292 $16,263,194 $16,263,194 80,396 $17,095,797 78,511 $17,061,823 76,468 $16,339,662 73,790 $16,336,984 Note D-Management Services Agreement An administrative services agreement exists between the Council and its supporting organizations. The administrative agreement requires the Council to provide executive, management, administrative and other such services that the supporting organizations may require. The amounts of these services charged to the supporting organizations are eliminated in the preparation of the combined financial statements. Note E-Federal Tax Status The Internal Revenue Service has ruled that the Council is a public charity, as described in Sections 509(a)(1) and 170(b)(l)(A)(vi) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Internal Revenue Service has also ruled that the two supporting organizations, the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project and the Michigan AIDS Fund, are exempt from federal income tax as specified under the provisions of Section 509(a)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. 10 �Council of Michigan Foundations and Supporting Organizations Notes to Combined Financial Statements (continued) Note F-Transfers to General Operations Transfers to General Operations represent amounts used primarily for the purchase of additional office space, to make necessary renovations and to complete the computerization of the Council's offices. Note G-Commitment As a result of expanded programming, the Council entered into an agreement in principle to purchase additional office space at its current location. It is anticipated that the Council will enter into a purchase agreement subsequent to March 31, 1995 committing the Council to pay approximately $130,000 upon closing. The Council expects to take possession of the office space in June 1995. The facility will be financed entirely by unrestricted investment earnings on Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project funds. 11 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Grand Rapids, Michigan 49503 • Phone: 616 774 0710 May 5, 1995 Ms. Dorothy A. Johnson, President Council of Michigan Foundations One South Harbor Avenue, Suite 3 Grand Haven, Michigan 49417 Dear Ms. Johnson: In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of the Council of Michigan Foundations and supporting organizations for the year ended March 31, 1995, we considered the Council's internal control structure in order to detennine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the consolidated financial statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control structure. The comments and recommendations which accompany this letter resulted from our evaluation of the internal control structure and other observations made during the course of the audit, along with management's responses to our comments. This report is intended solely for the information and use of management of the Council of Michigan Foundations and supporting organizations. We would be pleased to discuss the following matters or to respond to any questions, at your convenience. Sincerely, Copy to the Audit Committee: Mr. Leonard Smith Mr. James R. Jenkins Ms. Patricia B. Johnson Mr. Richard K. Rappleye Mr. Stephen E. Upton �Internal Control Structure As a result of recent growth, including the formation of the two supporting organizations, the volume and complexity of financial transactions have increased significantly. In 1994, the Council installed a management information system designed primarily to enhance the quality of services to member foundations. Management is currently in the process of upgrading the system to include accounting and general ledger modules. As part of the system implementation, we recommend that management review internal control policies and procedures related to the new systems and evaluate whether these controls continue to be adequate given the Council's expanded level of activity. The transactions between entities and funds have become numerous; therefore, appropriate authorization and tracking procedures should be enhanced as part of the new system's design. All significant internal control policies and accounting procedures should be documented in writing. In addition, the new accounting system should include provisions that require double entry accounting for all individual funds contained within the Council's financial statements. This will give management further assurance that intrafund and interfund activity is properly recorded. We understand that the new general ledger software package recently selected does incorporate this double entry requirement. Management's Response As an ongoing analysis to upgrade our current system, management is currently reviewing all staff functions and internal control procedures. Where appropriate, various staff functions will be reallocated to the appropriate personnel to tighten internal controls. As in the past, management will continue with our ongoing evaluation and documentation of internal control procedures. Installation of the new general ledger and accounts payable accounting system software began on May 26, 1995. This new system allows for the appropriate authorization and automatic tracking of transactions between entities and funds. In addition, the new system requires double entry accounting for all individual funds. 1 �Not-for-Profit Financial Reporting The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued two new statements in June 1993 that have a particular impact on the accounting and reporting of not-for-profit organizations. The provisions of the two statements, Accounting for Contributions Received and Contributions Made (FASB Statement No. 116) and Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Organizations (F ASB Statement No. 117) must be adopted by the Council for the year ending March 31, 1996. Under the new statements, the Council may be required to change its current method of accounting for certain pledges of gifts received and grants made. Additionally, classification of the Council's assets, liabilities and activities for financial reporting purposes will also change. Evaluation of the impact of these changes on the Council's financial statements should be made as soon as possible, since the financial statements for fiscal 1995 will also require restatement to reflect the provisions of the new standards. Application of the new standards may be a time-consuming endeavor. We understand that the Council has begun the process of interpreting the new rules and analyzing their impact on the 1996 financial statements. As the Council moves forward with the implementation of the new accounting system, we recommend that management consider the financial information requirements of the new statements and ensure that the data will be available. Ernst & Young LLP can assist in this process if our expertise in this area is desired. Management's Response With the installation of new accounting software, management will be working closely with Ernst & Young to analyze the impact of FASB Statement No. 116 and 117 on the Council's financial statements. Meetings will continue to take place with Ernst & Young regarding the structure of our new accounting system, with emphasis on the financial information requirements of FASB Statement No. 116 and 117. Once management has analyzed the full impact of the new FASB statements, we will present our findings to the Board of Directors at the November Board meeting. 2 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Smith, Interim Chair, Audit Committee Re: March 31, 1995 Audit Leonard W. Smith, David R Lindberg, and Anne E. Stoll met with Paul Brazda of Ernst & Young to review the Audited Financial Statements and Letter of Recommendations. James R Jenkins, Dorothy A. Johnson, Richard K Rappleye and Stephen E. Upton were in attendance through a conference call. After review and discussion the committee recommended acceptance of the Audited Financial Statement and Letter of Recommendations. Consequently the Audit Committee recommends the following resolution: RESOLVED that the Board affirm the Audit Committee's recommendation to accept the Audited Financial Statements and Letter ofRecommendations as presented. (See copy in Board book.) Mr. Brazda complimented the staff work undertaken by Anne Stoll, departing Director of Finance and Administration. Her work, with three separate audits, will assist future efforts. iljw/Lindberg/Boardlnfo/Memo529 �17 COUNCIL OF MICIDGAN FOUNDATIONS AND SUPPORTING ORGANIZATIONS AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEl\'IENTS COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 1995 Financial Reporting In June of 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued new rules that will significantly affect the way many not-for-profit organizations account for contributions and will change the basic financial statement presentation for many organizations. These new financial reporting rules are not effective until next year and, consequently, the new provisions have not been applied to these financial statements. Combined Statements of the Council and Supporting Organizations The enclosed statements represent the activities of the general operations of the Council as well as the activities of the two supporting organization: The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project and the Michigan AIDS Fund. Balance Sheet Total assets of the Council and the two supporting organizations have not changed substantially. The composition of assets has changed, however. Investments The Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project was initially funded during the last week offiscall994. Since then, investment strategies have been employed to structure a portfolio ofU.S. Treasury securities which will mature at intervals when grant payouts are expected to be made. The U.S. Treasury portfolio stands at $10,630,000 at March 31, 1995. Investments also contain $6,353,000 of funds in money market accounts which were yielding approximately 5.5% at March 31, 1995. The William W. Allen Endowment Fund is held in an investment management account and stands at $78,500 at March 31, 1995. Detailed information concerning investments can be found on page 10 in Note C to the financial statements. �18 Accrued Investment Income The U.S. Treasury securities, new in fiscall995, have interest payments at varying semi-annual periods; Accrued interest on these securities was $17 6, 000 at March 31, 1995. Fixed Assets Net fixed assets increased approximately $400,000 in 1995 due, primarily, to the purchase of additional office space directly below the CMF' s original space. The purchase was financed with the unrestricted investment earnings from the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project as approved by both Board's of Trustees of CMF and the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project. Additional expenditures were made to remodel and reconfigure CMF's total office space. Furnishings were also needed and special funding as well as vendor donations helped to finance these expenditures. Other Assets Other assets consist primarily of purchased interest on U.S. Treasury securities. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue represents the amount of restricted grant revenue which has not been expended by the balance sheet date. In 1995, general operations deferred revenue relates primarily to the Michigan Cares project that the Council is managing. The Council has received grant funds for this project from the Michigan Community Services Commission, the majority ofwhich are granted out to eligible participants in the program In 1994, deferred revenue represented special funding for our computer infrastructure project which was not entirely expended by March 31, 1994. Other deferred revenues represent restricted grants and contributions to the supporting organizations which have not been expended by the balance sheet dates. Fund Balances The activity in the fund balance accounts is reflected in the combined statements of activity and changes in fund balances for the separate entities. 2 �19 Combined Statements of Activity and Changes in Fund Balances Grant Support Accrual accounting requires that restricted grant revenue be recognized only to the extent that it has been expended for the intended restricted purpose. The formation and funding of the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project by the W.K Kellogg Foundation grants and the resulting increased activity of the CMF entity in this project have resulted in the recognition of significantly higher grant support revenue. In fact, the increase in grant revenue ($6,075,000) which has been recognized is almost exactly equal to the increase in grants to community foundations ($6,019,000) which can be seen in the first expense item under the Expenses category of this financial statement. Contributions Contributions increased approximately $543,000 over last year. A substantial portion ofthis increase came from the $351,000 in contributions made to the Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund which was established this year. The remaining $190,000 increase came from increased membership dues and special project funding. Publication Revenue Publication revenue increased $52,000 due entirely to the publication and release of the 9th Edition of The Michigan Foundation Directory. The directory is updated every other year. Sales have been very strong for this edition. Management Services An administrative services agreement exists between the Council and the two supporting organizations. The administrative agreement requires the Council to provide executive, management, administrative and other such services that the supporting organizations may require. The amount of these services is approximately $763,000 which has been recorded as management services revenue in the general operations of the Council and as management services expense for the two supporting organizations. These amounts are then eliminated from the combined revenues and expenses so as not to overstate these amounts. (See the eliminations column.) Investment Income and Other Investment income and other income has increased $754,000 over last year. This is due primarily to the timing of the initial funding of the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project (i.e. last week oflast year). The investment income earned by the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project this year was $748,000 making up most ofthis increase. 3 �20 Expenses Grant expense increased $6,019,000 which is attributable to the increased grant making capacity ofthe Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project supporting organization. Other operating expenses increased, in general, for two primary reasons. First, the administration of the entire community foundation project by CMF, beginning in 1995, necessitated the use of more resources: human resources as well as operating resources such as telephone, supplies and postage. To summarize, operating expenses, exclusive of grants, were $2,036,000 in 1995 and $1,738,000 in 1994 -- an increase of approximately $300,000 or 17% over last year. Significant expense fluctuations are discussed below: Salaries and benefits increased $203,000 over last year. The reorganization of staffin fiscal1995 to accommodate the increased activities ofCMF and the formation of the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project supporting organization, including the promotion of.Kathy Agard to Vice President for Program Services, necessitated the creation of an additional position for a Director for community foundation services and an administrative support position for community foundation member services. In addition, the promotion of other personnel to Director positions in various areas necessitated the creation of an administrative support position to assist with the increase in outflow of assistance to our members. The increased volume of transactions brought about by the growing activities of CMF, the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project and the Michigan AIDS Fund resulted in adjusting the Financial Director position from a half-time position to a three quarters position. Salaries and benefits increased also as a result of salary increases which were all within approved budgeted levels. Workshop expense rose to $101,000 in fiscal1995 from $51,000 in 1994 (an increase of$50,000). The increase relates to a greater number of workshops as well as a greater number of participants as our membership grows and becomes more active. Printing and publications costs increased $32,000, due mostly to $22,000 in costs incurred to publish the 9th Edition of The Michigan Foundation Directory this year. (CMF had handled this publication with a partner in the past.) CMF continues to expand its in-house desktop publishing of information and brochures as a service to members which accounts for the remaining increase which is spread fairly evenly over the activities of C.MF. 4 �21 Meeting and travel costs continue to be a significant cost to CMF. This area has increased from $85,000 last year to $118,000 this year. Approximately $26,000 relates to increased expense in services to community foundations. The new and highly successful efforts in the Upper Peninsula resulted in meeting and travel expenditures of$8,300. The rapid growth and need for membership service in the community foundation field increased the volume of travel by the staff The formation ofthe Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project and its new committees resulted in more frequent meetings and higher costs. The remaining increase of $7,000 is attributable to higher levels of activity in all areas of CMF as well as increased mileage reimbursement as permitted by the Internal Revenue Service. Mini-grant activities which represent small grants to our members for conferences and technical assistance increased approximately $36,000. Last year's mini-grant budget was $30,000 compared to this year's budget of$65,000 which gave the community foundations greater resources to draw upon for this type of activity. Depreciation expense increased $27,000 to $72,600 as a direct result ofthe $478,000 in property additions this year combined with the substantial computer investment which was made last year which required a full year's depreciation expense to be recognized. Transfers occurred predominantly between the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project and CMF. These transfers financed the purchase of additional office space and related renovation as well as the completion of the computerization of CMF offices. 5 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Terminating Memberships Throughout the year, CMF staff communicates with foundation and corporate representatives whose memberships are in arrears. After all avenues of contact and persuasion are exhausted, each delinquent membership is evaluated on an individual basis as to the prospects of retention. CMF intensifies this process just prior to the beginning of its new fiscal year (April 1). Therefore, this Membership Report contains a higher number of membership terminations than are experienced in a normal quarterly report to the Board. Although 14 of the memberships recommended for termination are a result of the above process, CMF will not experience a major loss of revenue. The foundation and corporate representatives have, for more than one year, continued to receive CMF benefits and publications in the hope that their support would be renewed .

This reporting format is consistent with external reporting requirements. The following comments are based upon an analysis of detailed financial resuhs. Balance Sheet Cash equivalents refer to the Woodward Money Market Funds that we maintain until cash is required to issue checks. Note that the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project has invested in U. S. Treasury securities designed to provide maximum investment security while yielding higher rates of return than money market funds. The Treasury securities are yielding as much as 7.875% and the money market funds were yielding 5.15% at the end of 1994. The securities are designed to mature at intervals in which grant payouts will be required. The William W. Allen Endowment Fund supports legislative efforts. The Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund was established recently to honor Dr. Mawby's contnlmtions to philanthropy. The Mawby Fund has grown rapidly since its inception. The current funds which now exceed $300,000 as well as other outstanding pledges will be matched by the Herbert H and Grace A Dow Foundation. Our goal is to bring the endowment to $1,000,000 for the purpose of providing continuous opportunities to fund projects through investment earnings which will increase or improve philanthropy. Statements of Activity and Changes in Fund Balances Revenues In general, revenues are in line with management's expectations. Membership pledges received subsequent to December 31 and outstanding pledges of approximately $30,000 are currently contemplated. Revenue received by MCFYP includes the grant revenue for the MCFYP projects expected in fiscal 1995. Investment income has been enhanced and should provide higher yield during the last six months of the year due to the investment of funds in U.S. Treasury securities and favorable interest rates. �8 Fund raising for the Michigan AIDS Fund is strong and the directors fully expect to meet this budget goal as the base of donors continues to expand. Expenditures General operating expenditures are being closely monitored. The following comments pertain to significant expenditure areas. The purchase of additional office space was made possible through the use of general operating fund balance. It should be noted that the investment income generated by the challenge grant funds advanced to MCFYP by theW. K Kellogg Foundation was used to replenish the fund balance, as was the intent when it advanced the funds to MCFYP. As ofDecember 31, 1994, the C.MF fund balance was completely reimbursed. Remodeling and furnishing costs are estimated to total $75,000 which is being funded by the following sources: specific provisions of the grants received by the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project Supporting Organization ($40,000), by fund balance for the telephone system and two printers which was approved as part of the capital expenditures budget for fiscal, 1995 ($15,000), and by a membership contnbution which has been received ($20,000). Expenses in key areas such as telephone usage, supplies and postage are near or over our annual budget at this nine month measurement point. When the budget was established in January of 1994, the financial implications of the resources necessary to carry out the administration ofthe Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project were d.ifficuh to predict. The growth in member base as well as the administration of the MCFYP grant activity resuhed in a reorganization ofthe community foundation staff(and other CMF staff) this past quarter. The expanded member services, travel and meetings, and other integral costs necessary to administer our programs grew more rapidly than we predicted. The unanticipated increased use of conference calls in place of meetings increased our telephone costs substantially. The publication of The Michigan Foundation Directory solely by CMF was not confirmed at the time the budget was adopted. The production required more resources than were budgeted, but the increase in directory sales revenue financed these increased costs. As of December 31, 1994, revenue from the sale of directories was $44,500 compared to the $35,000 which was budgeted. The entire CMF staffis aware ofthe budget position and costs are being monitored very carefully to minimize the budget overages as we progress through our last fiscal quarter. The Michigan AIDS Fund expenditures and grants are generally in line with expectations and have been reviewed by the Supporting Organization Committee of the C.MF Board of Trustees, as have the financial resuhs of activities of MCFYP. �9 COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNATIONS COMBINED BALANCE SHEET DECEMBER 31, 1994 General Operations ASSETS Cash and Cash Equivalents U.S. Treasury Securities TOTAL ASSETS Michigan Communly Foundations' Youth Project Michigan AIDS Fund Endowed And Other Funds Total ~.515 $6,310,315 10,667,109 $829,473 $439,989 ~.515 $1S,sn.424 $829,473 $439,989 $1 4,663,550 2,313,874 $843,425 (13,952) $137,036 3:12,953 $16,018,147 2,688,254 $1S.sn.424 $829,473 $439,989 $18,706,401 $8,039,292 10,667,100 $18,706.~ LIABILITIES (Cash basis of accoun1ing used for revenue and expenses recognition.] FUND BALANCES Beginning Fund Balances Net Change in Fund Balances $374,136 85,379 TOTALFUNDBALANCES====~==·=51=5= FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES: Net Property and Equipmen1 $550,407 SEE MANAGEMENT REPORT �10 COUNCIL OF MICHIGAN FOUNDATIONS COMBINED STATEMENTS OF ACTIVITY NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 Gen1K111 Operations REVENUES Contributions Other Revenues TOTAL REVENUES EXPENDITURES MembeMip Services Oa:upancy Direct Expenses Management SeiVic:es Incurred TOTAL EXPENDITURES GRANTS TOTAL GRANTS & EXPENDITURES REVENUES OVER (UNDER) EXPENDITURES TRANSFERS BEGINNING FUND BALANCES ENDING FUND BALANCES Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project Michigan AIDS Fund Endowed And Other Funds $868,761 269,873 $8,209,465 485,961 $509,350 $299,633 26,121 3,320 1,138,634 8,695,426 535,471 302,953 886,878 342,765 0 0 0 0 153,927 430,809 89,767 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1,229,643 584,736 89,767 0 158.612 5,461,816 459,656 1,388.255 6 ,046,552 (249,621) 2,648,874 335,000 (335,000) 374,136 14,663,550 $459,515 $16,977,424 Total Nine Month Adual Tcul Annual &do« $9,887,209 785,275 $10,042.893 1,199,603 10,672,484 0 0 976,645 342,765 153,927 11,242,496 430,809 1,382.355 ~ . 960 0 574.413 0 1,904,146 0 6 ,080,084 7,385.700 549,423 0 7,984,230 9.700.42e (13,952) 0 843,425 302,953 0 137,036 2,688,254 0 16,018,147 1,542,068 0 15,881 .111 $439,989 $18,706,401 $17.423.179 $829,473 SEE MANAGEMENT REPORT 2,314,728 �O:SfOU~ ..

The following narrative reviews Key Priorities and provides a Summary of the task by CMF purposes. Key Priorities Legislative Reenact legislation for the free market value deductibility of gifts of stock to private foundations Strike the sunset provision of the Michigan Tax Credit Increasing Philanthropy Establish statewide advisory committees comprised of attorneys, bankers, stockbrokers, financial consultants, accountants, corporate CEO' s, and potential foundations to discuss increasing philanthropic resources. Assist the development of at least 5 new family foundations. Program Continue to develop CMF' s Detroit office Increase the diversification of publications and technical assistance to meet the growing needs of members Continue implementation of the computer projects within CMF, between CMF and its members, and with the community foundation special initiative Continue implementation of the Youth Project challenge grant and the development of the endowment fund to support future programs. �21 Educate Continue an aggressive educational schedule with both support for programs for narrow interest groups, and three conferences on general interests across the membership: an Institute for New Staff: a conference on Violence, and a conference on Health. SUMMARY The CMF Plan ofWork for next fiscal year is organized according to the six pw:poses established by the strategic plan. Support goals for these initiatives are presented. CMF continues numerous services and programs each year. This summary is an attempt to isolate new and expanded goals for 1995-96. I. Networking- Provide the means for regular exchange of ideas, experiences, and expertise among Michigan Grantmakers. The networking goal includes the direct services to our four major membership groups: Independent, Family, Corporate and Community Foundations. The independent foundation members will be implementing the first year of the internship program and the common grant application form. A new service, ''Member Briefing" sessions and continuation of the successful 'Wingspread type" conferences will highlight the year. Family foundations will be served by regional meetings, three new publications, consultation and outreach to encourage family foundation formation. Early discussions of extending ''family foundation" services will begin as will the planning for a family foundation conference to be held in 1996-97. For corporate members, CMF will continue services and add new corporate donor forum breakfasts. Initiatives will be started to understand and develop corporate philanthropic "shareholder" statements specific to various industries and the culture of out-of-country business owners. Educational sessions (designed for a variety oflevels of expertise), three corporate giving newsletters, and collaboration with the Michigan Chamber of Commerce will continue. The community foundations continue their project to cover the State, to become computerized and electronically networked and to build youth philanthropy. This year the community foundations will implement a new model to sustain local volunteerism Several publications will be written and numerous training opportunities will be offered. IT. Advocate- Represent Michigan Grantmakers' interests and concerns with local, state and national governments �22 The advocating goal covers the implementation ofCMF's legislative goal statement. In particular, this year, we will be working to strike the sunset provision of the community foundation tax credit and to reenact legislation for full market value deductJ.oility of gifts of stock to private foundations. ill. Increase - Increase the grantmaking resources of foundations and corporations in Michigan The increasing philanthropy goal will be reached through the formation of at least 5 family foundations, 2 corporate giving programs, and the completion of community foundation service for the State ofMichigan. Statewide advisory committees will be established for the key constituencies involved in the creation of institutional philanthropies and their insights will be followed-up through individual interviews with key representatives from each area. The increasing goals include active outreach to minority communities and financial advisors. If special funding is secured through a joint proposal, The Philanthropic lnitiative/C:MF, more in depth work will be undertaken. IV. Educate and Inform- Provide Michigan grantmakers with educational resources, information and services in order to enhance and to improve philanthropy Educational programs are provided throughout the year by CMF for its various constituencies. The Annual Conference is planned for Kalamazoo on November 8 -10. Regional members' meetings continue as does the Institute for New Staff and Trustees designed for all types of foundations. Two new workshops on grantmaking issues: violence, and health and human services are scheduled along with continuing programs on child care, and women in philanthropy. Library services continue with CMF taking a leadership role in making resources available through computerization and electronic networking. V. Promote- Inform the public of the importance of contnlmtions of Michigan grantmakers to the citizens of the state and to society-at-large Twenty new publications are planned. The Michigan Scene will continue quarterly as will the ''Memo to Members". The Capital Campaign Report will be prepared along with the companion pieces to the Directory, "Survey ofMichigan Philanthropy" and ''Information for Seeking Foundation and Corporate Grants". A ''Kiplinger"- type addition to the Michigan Scene is anticipated. CMF will also meet with at least six editorial boards of major newspapers. VI. state Lead- Exercise leadership through facilitating members' responses to needs in the Current leadership projects such as the Michigan AIDS Fund, the Youth Project and the community foundation computer project will continue. A national conference is �23 planned to discuss the youth project and to introduce a book written about the lessons learned. Support Supporting these efforts are goals around membership, budget and finance, administration, information systems and staff development. CMF hopes to recruit 16 new members and to retain 97% of current members. The budget and finance area will update both financial and investment policies and will become computerized this year. Administrative tasks will center on the operations of the Detroit Office and the normalization and operation of administrative systems in Grand Haven. Information Systems will be working to implement the electronic communications system resulting in the ability to communicate between members and CMF via computers. Finally, a new area, staff development, has been added to ensure that CMF takes a proactive role in the professional growth of the staff in order to meet CMF's new strategic plan. Conclusion Based on the new strategic plan, the CMF staff is proposing a Plan ofWork which continues the current multifaceted services to the members and adds new initiatives as requested. The detailed work plan is in the back cover. Management will be using an even more refined draft for monitoring progress. We look forward to the challenges and opportunities of the next year. i:ewp:brd/95-96sum � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Johnson Re: Update on National Issues Twelve Member Visit to Capitol Hill to Secure Sponsors for HR. 733 and HR. 734 On February 1, 1995, Herb Dow and I led a Council ofMichigan Foundations delegation to Capitol Hill. The purpose of the trip was to : • Give each Congressman a printout indicating all the foundations in his district and a new Michigan Foundation Directory, Edition IX. • Update each Congressman on the news oflocal foundations/corporate giving programs. • Request support oflegislation. (Details to follow). --The composite bill would include three provisions, one of which expired in 1994 (the ability ofliving donors to deduct the full fair market value of publicly traded stock to private foundations 1994- HR. 2418). --A bill which would permit the establishment of a common investment fund for private and community foundations (1994- HR. 591 and S. 427). �53 Each Congressman received a complimentary copy of the Ninth Edition of the Michigan Foundation Directory, paid for by the Allen Fund, and a computerized printout of all the foundations in their District, by assets and grants. The delegation met with all sixteen Congressional Offices including personal visits with Senator Spence Abraham, several Congressmen and some Aides. We attended the Council on Foundations/Regional Initiative Luncheon where Congressman David Camp (R-Midland) addressed the Regional Association of Grantmakers Meeting. Don Parfet hosted the Council of Michigan Foundations' Members at the University of Michigan Washington DC Breakfast, attended by several Congressmen. This is the second year both events were scheduled the same day. STATE ISSUES HR. 733 and HR. 734 Council of Michigan Foundations' members have secured eight cosponsors to HR. 733, a bill which would pemrit living donors to deduct the full fair market value for gifts of publicly traded stock to private foundations, and to HR. 734, which would permit private and community foundations to establish a tax exempt investment fund. Michigan Cosponsors include: Congressman James Barcia Congressman David Camp Congressman John Conyers, Jr. Congressman Peter Hoekstra Congressman Dale Kildee Congressman Vern Ehlers Congresswoman Lynn Rivers Congressman Fred Upton Total Michigan sponsors to date are eight. We are working with our RAG colleagues to secure additional sponsors from their states. COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS - Escheats Funds For several years the community foundations have been considering escheat funds as possible sources for endowment building. Escheats are dollars which return to the State because the owner does not claim them and cannot be located, for example the balances on small checking accounts or unclaimed race track winnings. Through the generous support of John Frey and the Frey Foundation, a comprehensive study of the escheat opportunity has been completed. CMF will review the study and has engaged David Haynes of Public Affairs Associates to move the idea forward and seek passage of requisite legislation if feasible and desirable. �54 COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS TAX CREDIT We received good news from Governor Engler's Office when he proposed to increase the CF Tax Credit by 50% ($300 individual contnlmtions/$150 Tax Credit, $ 600 couple/$300 Tax Credit). Credits are also proposed to be increased for state universities and colleges, public TV stations, soup kitchens and shelters. The prospects for passage appear good at this time. i:ewp:brd-govt.3/28 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

This amount is made up of: W.K. Kellogg Foundation $100,000 Charles Stewart Mott Foundation $25,000 Other members for designated special projects $77,390 Investment Income Anticipated 1995 $17,000 The 1996 figure is based upon anticipated 1995 performance. Budget 1996 $20,000 �- ---------------- 29 Anticipated 1995 Maw by Fund Interest Earnings so Budget 1996 $25,000 The Mawby Endowment Fund was created in 1994 by voluntary contributions of the CMF membership in honor of Russell G. Mawby, retiring Chair and CEO of the W. K. Kellogg Foundation. Interest earnings from the fund will be used to support projects to improve and increase philanthropy. Fiscal 1996 efforts include peer-donor meetings with prospective donors, the K-12 education initiative, and the electronic technology system connecting member foundations. Anticipated Allen Fund Interest Earnings 1995 Budget 1996 $0 $3,000 The Allen Endowment Fund was created in 1988 in memory of William W. Allen, first chair of CMF' s Government Relations Committee, to support furthering the understanding of private philanthropy in federal and state legislative and regulatory matters. Fisca11996 use of these monies include travel costs and support materials for the Washington D. C. Legislative Visits. Anticipated 1995 Publications $12,500 Budget 1996 $13,000 We expect to have publication revenues from the following materials in fiscall996: Scholarship Manual Family Foundation Publications Establishing a Charitable Foundation Community Foundation Publications Address Labels Tapes and other Library Services �30 Anticipated 1995 Small Conferences $50,000 Budget ~ $57,900 Small conference revenues consist of: Detroit Area Granonakers Grand Rapids Donors' Forum COF Michigan Evening Women In Philanthropy Specialized Member Workshops Regional Member Meetings Annual Youth Conference The increase in revenues is due to a planned reduction in the community foundation subsidies of participant fees. H workshops are not held, corresponding expenses will not be incurred Fee income does not cover expenses in all cases. Workshop expense is subsidized by other funding in these instances. Anticipated 1995 Annual Conference $135,000 Budget 1996 $140,000 Revenue for the annual conference represents estimated registrations for the 23rd annual conference in Kalamazoo, Michigan with no registration fee increase. Registration may be higher, but it is our custom to budget conservatively. Fiscal1995 includes an education award ($29,000) from the community foundation budget for community foundation members attending the Annual Conference. The estimated award for 1996 is $20,000. Anticipated 1995 Host Committee $47,000 Budget 1996 $25,000 This figure represents estimated contributions from local area businesses and foundations to support host events and activities. Anticipated 1995 DirectorvSales $45,000 Budget 1996 $20,850 Fiscal1996 will be the second year of a two-year cycle in which the Directory is reproduced. The 1996 projection assumes that approximately the same number of edition nine directories will be sold as were sold in edition eight, even though 1995 sales have exceeded budgeted projections. Higher sales are normally reflected in the first year of the production. As the Council continues to expand its services and offerings to its members, it becomes more difficult to maintain a balanced budget Beginning in ftscal1995, the Council asked its members for voluntary contributions toward the cost of the Directory. Many members responded positively to this request It is hoped that this important publication might become a significant revenue producing source since the production of the Directory is now performed totally by CMF. �31 Management Contracts Anticipated Budget 1995 ~ $858,890 $1,018,045 CMF staff provides administrative support services to the Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project which was established in 1994. Salaries, benefits and other operating expenses will be paid by the supporting organization under a management service contract which is estimated to be $1,018,045. Details of the Community Foundation operations may be found in the detailed budget included with this packet Management structures for the Michigan AIDS Fund have not yet been finalized and are therefore not included in this budget projection. For efficiency of tracking and grant reporting, the 1996 MCFYP contract has been designed to include all administrative, technical assistance and mini-grant services, applying only those costs to the MCFYP account which are to be deliberated and decided exclusively by the MCFYP Board of Directors. The 1995 anticipated expense has been restated to be comparable to the 1996 estimate. �32 EXPENSE NOTES Anticipated 1995 Salaries and Benefits $712,886 Budget ~ $892,981 Budgeted salaries, benefits and FICA for fiscal1996 are expected to increase $175,099. The increase is attributable to a 2-5% general salary increase and the following new staff positions: CORE BUDGET An increase in the Financial Director position from 3/4 time to full time 19,000 The addition of a part-time Improving Philanthropy Project Manager (W. Calvin Patterson, ill) 11,626 The addition of 25% of the Vice President for Programs position 22,290 The addition of 25% of the Vice President's Secretarial position 8,415 COMMUNITY FOUNDATION BUDGET (Supported for 5 years by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation grants) The addition of a full time Secretarial position 24,565 The addition of two part-time consulting staff positions 53,163 Individual staff increases will be determined by management based on studies of market area, COF, RAG and CMF member organizations. The President's compensation will be determined by the Executive Committee. C:MF provides health care coverage for thirteen employees, an 8% annuity contribution for all full-time staff, and long-term disability benefits. FICA has been estimated to increase commensurate with salary increases. CMF employs 17 operational staff (9 FfE Core and 8 (7 .5 FfE) community foundation), 5 consultant staff, and 2 volunteer executive-in-residence staff, comprising 17.15 FTEs. Anticipated 1995 Occupancy $25,000 Budget 1996 $24,000 Occupancy expense consists of monthly office space maintenance and cleaning and monthly off-site storage fees. Because of the purchase of new space. we no longer lease space for additional staff, resUlting in a slight decrease of costs from previous year. �- - - - - - - -- - - - -- ----- 33 Anddpated Telephone ~ . $30,000 Budget ~ $36,165 The fiscal 1996 budget includes a substantial increase over 1995. Telephone usage has been increasing with additional services but studies performed by independent service vendors at our request have helped us to contain this area of cost. At the request of membership, the major area of growth is being experienced in conference call meetings instead of in-person meetings. Management is investigating methods of controlling these costs by sharing costs with participating members rather than incurring full cost at CMF. Telephone expenses are also increased over 1995 due to the addition of electronic mail to our members and additional staff. The increase also covers mobile phone expense for four employees who travel extensively as a part of their responsibilities and use the phones to return messages and deliver timely answers, even when they are away from the office. Equipment Lease and Maintenance Anddpated Budget 1995 1996 $18,100 $18,000 Fiscal1996 costs are expected to include maintenance contracts for: Computer hardware Computer software Other office equipment $9,000 6,000 3,100 With the recent acquisition of new computer equipment and its essential role in our day-to~y operations. it is imperative that we maintain adequate maintenance on critical hardware components. We expect that software suppon maintenance fees will be 20% to 30% of our initial software cost. We also have maintenance costs on other office equipment such as our telephone system, copy machines and typewriters. Antidpated 1995 Mailing and Postage $45,000 Budget 1996 $43,925 Mailings are a significant service provided to members and potential members. In light of recent postal rates increases, we have budgeted a 14% increase for fisca11996. CMF has experienced an increased volume of major mailings (MCFYP and Directory services) as well as increased utilization of overnight delivery. Management is exploring ways to reduce mailing costs. �34 Anticipated Supolies 1m $53,000 Budget .122!! $53,925 Supply costs include nonnal office supplies required such as paper, letterhead, labels, file folders, etc. Supplies have increased with the addition of staff, growth of programming, and expanded workstation spaces. Costs are allocated among the major program areas, with the community foundation grants assuming approximately half of the expenses. As we attempt to move to a more "paperless" office operation, with the assistance of electronic mail. we hope to be able to reduce these costs in future years.

Miscellaneous and Temporary Help Anticipated 1995 $12,500 Budget 1996 $9,600 CMF utilizes temporary help services during certain peak times of the year when large mailings are being produced or special projects can be isolated and performed efficiently by temporary help. This option is used by management as an alternative to hiring staff whenever possible. �36 Anticipated 1995 Books and Subscriptions $7,500 Budget ~ $7.800 One of the most important resources CMF provides is its collection of reference materials in the library. We now have a professional librarian on staff who maintains our collection and adds important pieces to it Fiscall995 is expected to exceed the budget due to the enhancements which have been made, and we feel that this important service should be fully funded.

The staff is committed to improving skills in areas of their work and the Council supports these carefully planned and approved activities. Certain staff are enrolled in university programs for journalism, for example, to assist with the many publications we handle internally. Other staff attend seminars in communication skills, management skills and employee benefits to name a few. Meetings and Travel Anticipated 1995 $90,000 Budget 1996 $98,050 As a state-wide association, meetings and travel by CMF staff and officers are an integral part of our service to members. Additional staff and increasing activities in philanthropy have resulted in a sharp upward trend in costs for the last several years. Core staff expect to incur normal travel expenses in 1996 carrying out the responsibilities of their assigned areas. We estimate the cost at $20,850. The addition of new staff members who will be traveling extensively to promote the development of community foundations and youth activities will increase our travel budget substantially.

Kellogg Foundation and which are held by the Michigan Community Foundation Youth Project (MCFYP) supporting organization. The rationale for this format is to represent the costs of all services being provided by the Council of Michigan Foundations regardless of the source of support. Following the combined budget, detailed statements are included for the core and community foundation (primarily MCFYP) operations. Following the financial schedules is narrative which explains how each budget figure was derived. The narrative also includes an estimate, for each line item, of the anticipated fiscal 1994-95 outcome for comparative purposes. The total operating budget which follows is a balanced budget with the fund balance being maintained. 9SB UDGET.rx:x: �Coundl of MleNgan Foundations 1995-96 Combined Budget REVENUES Membership Conlributlons Additional Contrlbullons Investment Income Mawby M.lnd Interest Eamngs Allen Fund lnaest Earnings Publications Small Conferences Annual Conference Host Committee Oiredcly Sales Management Conlracls TOTAl REVENUES EXPENSES Salaries & Benefits Occupancy Telephole Equipment Lease & Mailing & Postage Supplies Insurance M.lmiture & Equip Computer Assoc.

Background The two supporting organizations (Michigan Community Foundations' Youth Project and the Michigan AIDS Fund) have requested separate audits and separate audit reports for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1995. This requires Ernst & Young to perform additional testing in order to render a separate audit opinion for each entity. Under generally accepted accounting principles, the audited financial statements of CMF will include the financial activities of the two supporting organizations even though separate reports will be issued for the supporting organizations at the request of the respective Boards. The professional fees for last year's combined audit were $8,000. Ernst & Young proposes to perform the audit for the combined entity for $8,500 and render an audit report for the two supporting organizations for an additional $1,125 for each. The total professional fees are proposed to be $11,000. I:ASTOWAUDITLTR � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Four deserve special comment. The first transition was one of leadership, with four Board members retiring and Mariam C. Noland stepping in as Chair after the untimely passing of Chairman, Herbert H. Dow. We are grateful for the many contributions ofJudy Hooker, Gil Hudson, Donald Lindow, and Leonard Smith. The second transition was in management as Dave Lindberg and Rob Collier joined us as director of finance/ administration and vice president/ chief operating officer respectively, replacing Anne Stoll and Kathy Agard. The third transition has been in our programs as we have worked to implement the new Five Year Strategic Plan that so many of our members helped design. The highlights shared in this Annual Report confirm that Board, staff and members combined to successfully meet these transitions, using creativity, leadership, and collaboration to realize positive results. Social and economic conditions coupled with government regulation and devolution provide uncertainty and apprehension for our nonprofit world. CMF, grantmakers, nonprofits, and the public, working together, can successfully address these challenges and, we believe, achieve grand results. We will continue to advocate for support of legislation to stimulate the growth of philanthropy. Public policy, communications, and new collaborations will characterize our work on your behalf in 1996-97. As you read about CMF's year, we hope you will keep in mind how much we have accomplished by working together. Herb Dow so often said: "collaborate." New people, new initiatives, and new resources are the devices grantmakers need to successfully meet the challenges that lie ahead. We look forward to continuing our work with you in CMF's many activities. ~C!~~ "r£ariam C. Noland ,, Mariam C. Noland Chair Dorothy A.Johnson President & CEO �A Tribute to Herbert H. Dow CMF Chair 1994-1996 n Januar 26, 996, the Council of Michigan Foundations lost a valued colleague, leader, friend and p ilanthropist. Herbert H. Dow II served C F w&th pride and dignity for more than 24 years. Herb's inv0lvement with CMF began when h joinea.d r initial steering committee in 1972. He was elected a trustee for a second time in 1985 and was appointed vice chairman of private foundations from 1992 to 1994. His active CMF participation culminated in his appointment as board chair in June, 1994. As the tenth chairman of the Board of Trustees, Herb provided outstanding guidance and vision. He oversaw the implementation of CMF's new five-year strategic plan; established the $1 million Russell G. Mawby Endowment Fund to Improve and Increase Philanthropy; began a collaborative project Herbert H. Dow II with the Michigan Community Service Commission; and opened a Detroit office to better service southeast Michigan members. Those of us who had the privilege of working with Herb are surely the better for it. He exemplified the philanthropic spirit through his corrununity leadership, encouragement, and personal example. In the years he shared with us, Herb frequently spoke about his belief in the power of collaboration. During CMF's 23rd annual conference, he said " .. .part of our ongoing role in the foundation community is to stimulate others to be involved in philanthropy." In tribute to Herb, we urge you to follow his lead: Acquaint yourself with other philanthropists in your community and work to form lasting collaborative relationships. Herb did these things so very well. �3 pecial Highlights Throughout this Annual Report you will read of the major accomplishments realized during the year. While all are important, we believe the following deserve special note: • Established The Russ and Ruth Mawby Fund for Kids with a $500,000 grant from the WK. Kellogg Foundation as directed by the Mawbys. • Welcomed 28 new members. • Assisted in the formation of 26 community foundation affiliate funds. • Received additional contributions for general operations and special projects from 85 members. • Accomplished three legislative goals and adopted seven new legislative goals that protect the philanthropic work of grantmakers and will provide an environment advantageous to the formation of foundations. • Successfully completed the Herbert H. and Grace A. Dow Foundation's matching grant challenge, raising more than $1.5 million for the Russell G. Mawby Fund to Improve and Increase Philanthropy. • Worked alongside 400 grantmakers who volunteered their experience for CMF committees and activities. l • Assisted individuals and families in the creation of more than a dozen new family foundations. • Assisted in the creation ofThe Forumnew national coordinating organization for the 25 Regional Associations of Grantmakers throughout the country. • Collaborated with the Michigan Department of Civil Rights and Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday Commission to involve 16 community foundation youth advisory committees in a challenge grant program. • Leveraged additional resources for collaborative ventures, such as Michigan CARES-a public/private partnership between CMF, the Michigan Community Service Commission, and six community foundations in developing comprehensive, collaborative plans for community services. • Launched two collaborative projects that focus, on the inclusion of philanthropy and volunteerism in educational settings: the K-12 curriculum project, and the university nonprofit management project. �Board of Trustees Front row, seated l to r: Kari Schlachtenhauftn, Dr. William C.

Kellogg Foundation �Enhancing, Improving & The CMF Board invites individuals, foundations and corporate grantmakers to re~ember their colleagues, mentors and friends by making endowment fund contributions to 'further CMF programming. Donors may direct their gift to specific purposes or the existing endowment funds described below. New FundThe Ruth and Russell Mawby Fund for Kids Russ and Ruth Mawby established this $500,000 endowment fund, as part of grant funds allocated by the WK. Kellogg Foundation, to honor and recognize Russ' years of service as Chairman and CEO of the foundation. The Mawby's fund will assist CMF in strenthening the involvement of youth in philanthropy. Dr. and Mrs. Mawby and their children will continue to advise the CMF Board on the best uses of the funds. The Russell G. Mawby Fund to Improve and Increase Philanthropy The William W. Allen Fund Since its establishment in 1989 as the first CMF endowment fund, the William WAllen Fund has helped to further representation of private philanthropy in federal and state legislative and William W.Allen regulatory matters. The (1908- 1987) Fund, enables CMF to present a biennial seminar _ for legislators and their aids, and to distribute complimentary copies of The Michigan Foundation Directory to each legislative office. Last year, the CMF board established the Russell G. Mawby Fund to Improve and Increase Philanthropy in Michigan to honor Dr. Mawby's significant contributions to Michigan philanthropy. Contributions amounting to over $1.5 million were received from more than 90 individuals, foundations, and corporations. Income from the Fund is providing seed funding for new collaboratives, such as the K-12 project. The first Maw by Fund for Kids intern, Erin Gardiner, began her internship at CMF in early Spring, 1996. CMF Membership In 1995-96, 28 new members joined and 85 members contributed additional support to CMF for special projects, as well as their regular membership fees. * - designates new member, # - designates additional contribution. # Talbert & Leota Abrams Foundation The Acme Foundation # Albion Civic Foundation • Alger Regional Community Foundation # Allegan Foundation # Americana Foundation Ameritech Amy Foundation Claude D. & Etta H.

Kellogg Foundation, Michigan had 34 community foundations serving 28 counties. Today, 52 community foundations and 28 affiliates service 73 Michigan counties. Since 1988, community foundation grantmaking has increased 93% to nearly $36 million and assets have jumped by 205% to $712,728,426. The purpose of MCFYP is to foster the development of Michigan community foundations and to involve youth in grantmaking by offering challenge grants to community foundations meeting project criteria. Michigan's community foundations now have established permanent youth endowments valued at $27,324,086, overseen by more than 1 ,200 high school youth serving on youth advisory committees (YACs) . Since MCFYP's inception,YACs have made more than 1,120 grants totaling over $2 million to meet local needs . In 1995/ 96, the Capital Region Community Foundation, the Charlevoix County Community Foundation, the Hillsdale Community Foundation, and the Community Foundation of St. Clair County completed the terms of the $1 million Kellogg challenge. Fourteen community foundations have now completed the Kellogg challenge, which is scheduled to end in 1998. In addition, MCFYP awarded 54 mini-grants totaling $40,290 for community foundation board and staff training, administrative support, and fund development training in 1995/96. Finally, a companion grant from the Kellogg Foundation assists community foundations in implementing a common foundation information management system (FIMS).

Binda The naming of the Honorary Chair of CMF' s Annual Conference is a way in which our organization pays tribute to a special individual (or individuals) in the Michigan field of philanthropy. This tradition, by its nature, calls for the selection of persons who are leaders in and contributors to the widening horizons of philanthropy. Guido A. and Elizabeth H. Binda created the foundation which carries their name in 1977, serving as president and vice president, respectively. The purpose of the Binda Foundation is "to support innovative projects that improve the vitality and quality of people's lives." Toward this end, seed money is provided for projects on the forefront of experimentation and research in areas such as education, youth, the arts, and the environment. Guido Binda, a noted architect, specialized in school design, until his retirement in 1984. Elizabeth was a dedicated educator in several universities and is a former Director of Elementary Education for the Battle Creek Public Schools District. The civic and philanthropic commitment of the Bindas is evidenced by a legion of honors, activities, and affiliations too extensive to allow for more than the mention of a selected few. Guido is a member of the Board of the Western Michigan University Foundation, Mental Health Professional Associates, Visiting Nurses of Southwest Michigan, and he is a 52-year member of the Lions Club. He formerly was a Board member of such organizations such as the Child Guidance Clinic and the Binder Park Zoo in Battle Creek. He is a graduate of the University of Michigan. Elizabeth currently serves as a Board member of the Kellogg Community College, Greater Battle Creek (Community) Foundation, and the Irving S. Gilmore International Keyboard Festival. She is a former Board member of the Council of Michigan Foundations, State Bar Grievance Board, Calhoun County Reading Council, United Arts Council, and American National Bank. She holds a Distinguished Alumni award from Northern Michigan University where she received her B.A. degree. Her M.A. degree is from the University of Michigan. The Council of Michigan Foundations proudly salutes its honorary chairpersons for the 1995 Conference: Guido and Elizabeth Binda. Honorary Chairpersons: Guido A. Binda, President and Elizabeth H.

At no other time in philanthropy's history has the importance of looking at all of our options been more critical. Whether it be expanding our thinking of how to get things done, or exploring the best way to make use of all of our resources together, our horizons need to be as wide as the scope of our collective imagination can take us. This year's conference in Kalamazoo brings together the best and the brightest our field has to offer. Creating partnerships for our future, looking at our community's strengths and building on them, assessing the national and state political climate to help us with decision making, untangling the maze of the information superhighway and what that means to us and our grantees, and looking at model programs that work are a few examples of the chances for learning and interacting that our Program Committee has planned. And of course, the special surprise, our Donor's Platform speaker, that I can assure you will be unforgettable! The Host Committee has built on the rich cultural mosaic that is Kalamazoo. This community has taken the sum of all its parts and produced site visits and entertainment for you that will long be remembered. Kalamazoo has indeed "pulled out all the stops!" I am so grateful to be sharing this year's conference with my good friends, Elizabeth and Guido Binda, as Honorary Chairpersons. A pair truly committed to giving back, not just their resources, but their time and expertise. Thank you for joining us and enjoy the conference. Kate P.

Kellogg Foundation, and Chairman, Council of Michigan Foundations Advisory Cabinet, Battle Creek David Owen Norris is the first Irving S. Gilmore Artist, an honor he received through a 'competition' he knew nothing about - the Gilmore Artist & Young Artists Awards. The Gilmore Awards, new to the music world, use a nomination and selection process so discreet that only by winning does a pianist ever know he or she had been considered. His was the most distinctive voice the judges heard, the deepest and most exciting level of musicianship they encountered. Norris, who has performed widely in Europe, brings to everything he plays profoundly interesting interpretations, an individual and mesmerizing voice. It was this that caused the Irving S. Gilmore International Keyboard Festival to unanimously select him as the Gilmore Artist. q.reetings: Donald R.

Gardiner �(THURSDAY CONITNUED) Foundation Center Collections Annual Meeting Jobs of the Future The Glens II, Plaza Level Partnering With MIS and Enlisting a Champion in Your Organization (7 hrs.) The Flats, Plaza Level Future job prospects concern each of us, from graduates about to look for their first job, to midcareer employees who wonder about job security. Dramatic changes have transformed the U.S. labor market during the last two decades, resulting in fewer good-paying entry level jobs, less job security, more part-time and temporary jobs, and more frequent job changes. Workers are also under increased pressure to increase their skills and raise their productivity. Yet, skilled workers find their real wages growing only modestly, if at all, and lowskilled workers find their real wages actually declining. What lies ahead for the American worker? What types of jobs will be available to the workforce ten years from now? What qualifications will be expected of workers? This session provides a national and regional perspective on these issues. Informal discussion on the Foundation Center's latest information; and an exchange of ideas and solutions to concerns.

Attacking Urban Poverty: What We Know and Don't Know The Glens III, Plaza Level Despite strong economic growth during the last fifteen years, the share of persons in poverty has risen from 12 to 15 percent. Why do we seem to be losing the war on poverty? Economists offer several explanations, including demographic shifts, policy changes, and fewer good-paying jobs for low-skilled workers. Yet, at the same time, the poverty rate is increasing, significant cuts in federal programs have been proposed. This session provides a national and regional perspective on the trends in poverty, changes in the characteristics of the poor, and factors that influence the poverty rate.

In addition to giving the profits to charity, he also ran Frank Sinatra out of the spaghetti business. On the downside, the spaghetti sauce is outgrossing his films. He did graduate from Kenyon College magna cum lager, and the process begat a laundry business which was the only student-run enterprise on Main Street. Yale University later awarded him an honorary doctorate of Humane Letters for unknown reasons. He has won four Sports Car Club of America National Championships and is listed in the Guiness Book of World Records as the oldest driver (70) to win a professionally sanctioned race (24 hours of Daytona, 1995). He is married to the best actress on the planet, was number 19 on Nixon's enemy list, and purely by accident, has done 51 films and four Broadway plays. He is generally considered by professionals to be the worst fisherman on the east coast. Paul Newman has said his charitable work is "a concrete kick in the rear that gives me a tremendous charge." There probably is no better example of that philosophy in action than his Hole in the Wall Gang Camp for children. A while back, Reader's Digest carried a five-page article on this unique camp for youngsters. They called it a "magic place ... where youngsters with life-threatening illnesses don't have to sit on the sidelines."
