Priority Goals for 1991-92 and the Future WORKSHEET to COMPLETE & BRING TO THE ANNUAL MEETING. October 28, 1991 [organized according to the Guiding Principles proposed jointly by the Program and Public Policy Committees] RANK Please rank by indicating a number 1-13, with "1" as highest priority GUIDING PRINCIPLE #1: The future of Michigan's quality of life depends on the commitment of its citizens and future citizens to the values of the nonprofit sector. Therefore it is in the best interest of the sector and the state to actively encourage voluntary giving and service. 1. MNF should continue to provide leadership and support for the year-long Michigan Campaign, kicking off at the Grantmakers/Grantseekers Seminar IV on April 24, 1991. 2. MNF should lay groundwork for a statewide "Give 5" campaign, sequenced to begin Spring 1993 (kick-off at the Grantmakers/Grantseekers Seminar V). 3. MNF should actively support and encourage educational programs that promote voluntary giving and service, and should continue to explore an appropriate role in this growing field. OTHER: GUIDING PRINCIPLE #2: The service of the nonprofit sector to the public depends on an interactive partnership between service providers, funders, policy makers and the public. The Michigan nonprofit community should promote constructive dialogue among all these parties. 4. MNF should begin a series of formal MNF-sponsored Summits on critical issues (one or two per year), beginning with the Summit planned for February 1992. 5. These Summits should be taped and disseminated through structured regional/local discussion groups, to stimulate the widest possible dialogue, understanding and constructive action. 6. MNF should continue to sponsor the Grantmakers/Grantseekers to promote the strongest and most effective partnership among funders and providers. OTHER: �GUIDING PRINCIPLE #3: In order to assist in re-educating the public and public leaders with concrete evidence of the PUBLIC BENEFIT of the nonprofit sector, the Michigan nonprofit community should encourage and undertake studies of its many unique benefits provided to the community at large. 7. MNF should collect existing research on Michigan 1 s nonprofit sector and disseminate it in usable form to nonprofit professionals and the public. 8. MNF should continue to cooperate with others to stimulate additional research on Michigan Is nonprofit sector, so that dependable information is available for planning (for example, by continuing the Scholars Roundtables). 9. MNF should continue to explore ways to become a resource to scholars seeking to access nonprofit organizations for research purposes; similarly, MNF should become an effective mechanism for the practicing nonprofit sector to communicate its research questions to researchers, in order to reduce the gap between research and practice. OTHER: GUIDING PRINCIPLE #4: Michigan's nonprofit sector should derme and aspire to the highest management standards of ethics, efficiency, and accountability, while preserving its historic and essential independence. 10. MNF should implement its interactive Computer Bulletin Board, as a tool for better communication across the sector. 11. MNF should produce a composite calendar of training opportunities, for dissemination in printed form and/or on the Computer Bulletin Board. 12. MNF should develop a working network among providers of technical assistance and training, for joint planning and more comprehensive services to all regions. OTHER: GUIDING PRINCIPLE #5: The Michigan nonprofit community should develop the rationale for tax exemption (rather than waiting for it to emerge from the pattern of decisions by government officials) and then play an active role in encouraging Michigan's leadership - including elected officials - to embrace it. 13. MNF should develop a Michigan White Paper on the Nonprofit Sector, and use it to develop a strategy to educate all stakeholders in the state. OTHER: �GUIDING PRINCIPLE #6: The Michigan nonprofit community should encourage positive public policies and incentives to promote giving to and the vitality of the nonprofit sector. 14. MNF should strengthen its capacity to respond as an alliance and be proactive on public policy issues that affect the sector as a whole. OTHER: GUIDING PRINCIPLE #7: The Michigan nonprofit sector should take an active role in shaping statewide regulations and rulings that defme clear, consistent interpretations and applications for purposes of tax exemption. 14.

Years 2 & 3 include a 5% inflation factor on most line items, required by the Kellogg Foundation's program officer in the design phase.

Minutes of the MNF Membership Committee Meetin~ October 8, 1991 -- 1:00 to 2:45 Kellogg Center, Vista Room, East Lansing, MI Trustees Present: Guests Present: Staff Present: Barbara K. Goldman Kenneth Gruber Leonard M. Young Lawrence Wells Donna M. Clarke Maryellen J. Lewis 1. Welcome and Call to Order: With Acting Chair L. Young present, the meeting was called to order at 1:05 p.m. 2. Review of the Minutes: The committee reviewed and approved the minutes from the August 6, 1991 meeting of the Membership Committee. 3. Review of the DRAFT Brochure: M. Lewis discussed the development of the DRAFT MNF brochure. It will be used not only to garner membership, but also to disseminate information on MNF. It includes descriptive information on MNF activities and can also be adapted to include timely information on MNF summits and initiatives. In reviewing the brochure, the committee stressed the importance of outlining and clarifying membership benefits as MNF continues to campaign for members. The committee also made note of minor language and graphic changes. 4. Review of potential Network Associates: The committee reviewed the list of potential Network Associates and the comments and suggestions which had been received from MNF Trustees. The committee again noted the importance of using the brochure for informational as well as membership purposes. Staff will continue to work with Trustees, especially the Michigan League for Human Services, to further define the membership mailing list. �5. Development of Membership Campai~:n Strate2y: After discussion, the committee decided that for the membership campaign to be successful, it would need the personal appeal of MNF's Trustees behind it. The first phase of the campaign will involve mailing out the brochure with a cover letter from individual MNF Trustees who have knowledge of the targeted organization (planned for November). Staff will provide the Trustees with a sample form letter which can be personally modified by each Trustee. Trustees will follow-up this written communication with a personal phone call approximately two weeks after the brochure is mailed. The second phase of the campaign will begin in January with an evaluation of the efforts to date and a second, broader mailing targeted to a specific group of individuals, such as those who attended GGill. As a benefit of membership, organizations will receive discounts on MNF events. This second mailing could be timed to arrive prior to the registration period for GGIV, thus providing potential members with a natural incentive to join MNF immediately. 6. Determination of Candidate to rtaJlace Helen Milliken: The committee discussed the resignation of Helen Milliken from the Board of Trustees for health reasons and reviewed the names of potential replacements which had been submitted by MNF Trustees. The committee recommended that Elizabeth Upjohn be named as an AtLarge Member of MNF. The full Board of Trustees will consider this recommendation on October 28, 1991. 7. Confirmation of the Slate of Officers: In order to insure continuity and stability during MNF's crucial start-up years, the committee recommended that MNF's current officers remain in office for a second term. The committee also discussed the need to identify future officers and committee chairs so that they may become familiar with the responsibilities associated with these positions. 8. Adjournment: The meeting adjourned at 2:45 p.m. �MICffiGAN NONPROFIT FORUM 34 KELLOGG CENTER EAST LANSING, MICIDGAN 48824-1022 Phone: 517/353-5038 Fax: 517/336-1327 MNF Minutes of the Membership Committee Meetin~ August 6, 1991 - 10:00 to 12:00 Kellogg Center, Room 16, East Lansing, MI Trustees Present: Leonard M. Young Joyce A. Brown Robert E. Ivory Dorothy A. Johnson Russell G. Mawby Staff Present: Donna M. Clarke David 0. Egner Maryellen J. Lewis 1. Welcome and Call to Order: With the Acting Chair present, the meeting was called to order at 10:10 a.m. Those present introduced themselves. M. Lewis discussed the transfer of the chairmanship from B. Goldman to L. Young. She also indicated that the fmance committee members present were invited so that the membership committee could plan and implement a membership campaign with the knowledge of MNF's current fiscal status and policies. 2. Review of Bylaws Amendment & Membership Structure: The committee reviewed the bylaws amendments in Article I & III, the membership structure, and the dues and contributions schedule (see attached) which were approved by the Board of Trustees on 5/9/91. The committee stressed the current need to define and clarify benefits of membership which are associated with each category of Membership. In reviewing the dues structure, the committee reiterated that MNF will not actively solicit members from any MNF member association (such as the United Way of Michigan or the Council of Michigan Foundations), except with the consent and in cooperation with that member. As recommended by the board, the committee reviewed the category of "Other Members." After discussion, they determined that this category merely allows the Board to create new membership categories in the future, should it choose to do so; it �is not in itself an active category for membership. The committee also recommended that the entire membership structure continue to be reviewed as the membership grows. 3. Review of Proj?osed Bud&ets: The committee reviewed the attached MNF Three Year General Cash Income for Years 2 & 3 (1991-1993) and the Target Income from Membership and General Contributions for Year 4 (1994). In 1992 MNF must raise $12,163 from contributions/dues. In 1993 this figure increases to $54,913, including the new staff position (currently covered by unexpended funds from 1990-91). In light of these figures, the committee determined that MNF should begin a targeted membership drive during the fall of 1991. 4. Devela,pment of a Strate&y: After lengthy discussion, the committee decided to develop a membership brochure which will be mailed in October to a targeted list consisting of 100 organizations. This target list will be compiled from the MNF database, from lists made available to MNF by D. Johnson, and from Organizational Member recommendations. Organizational Members will also take responsibility for follow-up contacts to targeted organizations. 5. Next Steps: The membership committee and staff will continue to work on specifying membership benefits. MNF staff will assemble a target membership list which to circulate among organizational members for their input. M. Lewis will work with the W .K. Kellogg Foundation to develop a membership brochure. 6. Adjournment: The meeting adjourned at 12:00 p.m. 2 �MICIDGAN NONPROFIT FORUM - 34 KELLOGG CENTER EAST LANSING, :MICHIGAN 48824-1022 Phone: 5171353-5038 Fax: 517/353-1872 Membership Committee Proposed Bylaws Amendment Article I: (2) Membership rand Termsl.

MINUTES of the GGIV PROGRAM COMMITIEE October 22, 1991 -- 10:00 a.m. to 2:00p.m. Days Inn -- Lansing South Caucus Room -- Second Level Members Present: John Lore, Co-chair Diana Sieger, Co-chair Suzanne Feurt Russell Gabier Kenneth Isherwood Ethel Kage Gene Keilitz Dan Moore Dottie Mortimer Colette Murray Barbara Owens W . Calvin Patterson Samuel Sniderman Glenn Stevens Mark Terman Patricia Waxweiler Lary Wells Jacquie Wetherholt Guests present: Dianne DePodesta Janet Quiring Jim McHale Staff present: Donna Clarke Maryellen Lewis 1. Welcome and Call to Order: With the Co-chairs present, the meeting was called to order at 10:05 a.m. Those present introduced themselves. 2. Review of the Minutes: The committee reviewed and unanimously approved the minutes of the August 27, 1991 meeting of the GGIV program committee. 3. Overview of GGIV in the context of the Michigan Nonprofit Forum: M . Lewis presented an informational video on the history and background of the Michigan Nonprofit Forum, noting that MNF is integrating the Grantmakers/Grantseekers Seminar with its ongoing work with the sector. �4. Review and Update on GGIV Pro2ram Plans: A. Openin2 Session: J. Lore reviewed prior discussions on the opening speaker and announced that Marian Wright Edelman, president of the Children 1 s Defense Fund, has agreed to be the keynote speaker for GGIV. J. Lore also asked the committee to consider inviting representatives from the Kresge Foundation to make a presentation on the VanDusen Endowment Challenge. The committee unanimously agreed to invite the Kresge Foundation to participate in an afternoon breakout session. This two-hour program will replace the "Grantmaker meets Grantseeker" program previously scheduled for the afternoon. J. Lore will make the appropriate follow-up contacts. B. Display Areas: J. Wetherholt reviewed the question of vendoring the display area. After discussion, the committee decided to continue operating the display area as it had in the past. Select groups will be invited to display their materials at no charge. However, staff will work to evaluate and measure the effectiveness and usefulness of the display area in order to re-evaluate for GGV. C. Mana2ement Session: D. Sieger reported for L. Patterson who was unable to attend the meeting. L. Patterson has been in touch with Flo Green, who has agreed to be a presenter at GGIV. F. Green mentioned several "hot" management topics which she would be willing to address. After discussion, the committee agreed to invite F. Green to speak in two sessions on "Collaboration and Appropriate Mergers" and "Innovative Income Generation". D. Voluntarism Session: M. Lewis reported on the morning session on volunteering, which will be based on the planned Michigan Campaign for Voluntarism which will kick-off at GGIV. The announcement of Michigan Is Year of the Volunteer will be made then, followed by a press conference at noon. This breakout session will report on the entire effort and will include Frank Popoff, CEO of Dow Chemical and Co-chair of the Campaign, as the keynote speaker. E. Evaluation Session: D. Moore reported on the outline for this session. It will include representatives of a range of organizations from grantmaking to grantseeking, such as a trustee or a board member of a nonprofit, an administrator in a nonprofit, and a United Way director in order to speak to the accountability issue. J. Sanders of the Kellogg Foundation will discuss the evaluation approach at the Kellogg Foundation. All panel members serve on an ad hoc committee looking at evaluation and accountability issues of nonprofits in Battle Creek. D. Moore suggested, and program committee members agreed, that this session will provide the audience with a strong "real world" world example for understanding a complex set of issues. 2 �F . Meet the Grantmakers Session: D. Sieger asked the committee to look at the value of this type of "dog and pony show" session. The committee agreed this session might work best if focused on a particular segment of the grantmaking community. After discussion the committee agreed this session should focus on the role of community foundations, both financial and non-fmancial. The panel should also include a person who can help provide the "big picture," such as how community foundations can serve as partners for leveraging corporate and foundation dollars. G. Public Policy Issues Session: G. Stevens reported this session will focus on both national and state level policy issues. Joy Terrel of Independent Sector will speak to the national issues and Edward Blews of the Association of Independent Colleges and Universities of Michigan will speak to the state issues. After discussion, the committee agreed that this session should not only be used to present information, but also to garner information for MNF's mission. Staff will work with G. Stevens to incorporate this into the session, possibly through a questionnaire. H . Trustees Session: C. Murray reported that G. Panas, author of "Born to Raise," "Megagifts," and "The Fundraising Almanac" , has agreed to speak at this session. He will present two one-hour back-to-back sessions in the afternoon. I. Media and Demo~raphics Sessions: M. Lewis reported on these two sessions. She noted MNF' s work with the Michigan Communication Project and discussed how this could be coordinated into a media relations session. She also mentioned Mark Wilson's work on the State of Nonprofit Michigan Project and discussed how this could be integrated into a demographics session. However, because F. Green will be presenting two sessions, one afternoon session may need to be cancelled. Staff will work with the hotel to fmd additional space to prevent this from happening, but M. Lewis asked the committee to be aware of this possibility. J. Advocacy/Lobbyin~ Session: S. Feurt reported on her work with the Alliance for Justice on this session. The committee discussed the difference between state and federal lobbying regulations and noted this is something to be very cautious of and sensitive to during the presentation. S. Feurt will continue to flesh out this session with the help of L. Wells. 5. Discussion of Moderators: M. Lewis pointed out moderators must be finalized at the next meeting, on December 3. Moderators often are very knowledgeable about the topic and help to provide coherence and continuity between speakers and panelists. The selection of moderators -- in the past done mainly by co-chairs and staff-provides an important opportunity to add stature, balance and diversity to the sessions and to the Seminar as a whole. 6. Publicity: M. Lewis is working with the Kellogg Foundation on the advance notice postcard, which should be ready for dissemination in November. After discussion, 3 �the committee agreed that each member should begin to contact their own media contacts with the infonnation on GGIV. Later, a media kit will be put together which includes a press release and a post card, followed by a press release and a brochure as the conference date approaches. Efforts should also be made to insure the mention of GGIV in the Crain's Detroit Business Nonprofit Edition coming out in December. 7. Timeline and Next Steps: The next meeting will be December 3, 1991 at the Kellogg Center in East Lansing. Progress reports are due to the Co-chairs and M. Lewis by November 18. 8. Adjournment: The meeting adjourned at 12:40 p.m. 4 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Minutes GGIV PROGRAM COMMIITEE August 27, 1991 -- 10:00 a.m. to 2:00p.m. Hyatt Regency, Stutz Bearcat Suite-- Dearborn, MI Members Present: Suzanne Feurt JohnS. Lore Dan Moore Colette Murray Barbara Owens Linda Patterson Dianne Bostic Robinson Diana R. Sieger Samuel Sniderman Glenn R. Stevens S. Mark Terman Patricia R. Waxweiler Jacquie A. Wetherholt Staff Present: Donna M. Clarke Maryellen J. Lewis 1. Call to Order: With the Co-chairs present, the meeting was called to order at 10:15 a.m. Those present introduced themselves. J. Lore discussed the history of the Grantmakers/Grantseekers Seminars. D. Sieger reviewed the meeting agenda and the "role" description for members. 2. Review of 1991 Grantmakers/Grantseekers Seminar A. Staff Report. M. Lewis reviewed the Summary of Evaluations from Grantmakers/Grantseekers ill, as well as the attendance breakdown by sector. Sample comments mentioned the outstanding speakers, variety and number of sessions, the lack of adequate hotel signage and overcrowding at some sessions. The members discussed the evaluation comments and ways to incorporate them into GGIV. It was suggested that efforts be made to categorize those who attend the Grantmakers/Grantseekers Seminars by position/title. This information would allow the committee to tailor future seminars appropriately. �J. Wetherho1t reported on the history and current status of the exhibits at the seminar. She suggested that the committee look at inviting vendors to display at GGIV for a fee. Staff will review the implications of these recommendations and make further recommendations to the committee. B. Insi~hts for 1991 Plannin~. Committee members reflected on their individual perceptions of the previous Grantmak:ers/Grantseekers Seminars. Several common themes emerged; maintaining diversity, capturing the "small" group feeling, encouraging volunteer leadership participation, and nurturing enthusiasm among the participants. The committee agreed to keep these items in mind during every phase of the planning. 3. Selection of 1992 Seminar Theme. J. Lore presented a history of the previous GGS themes and encouraged the committee to follow along those lines. After brainstorming, the committee chose: "Living our Mission: Meeting our Public's Needs." 4. Identification of Key Speakers. Both D. Sieger and J. Lore emphasized that the Keynote speaker sets the tone for the entire conference. The opening session needs a charismatic, thought-provoking speaker who is in-tune with the independent sector. The speaker should also be someone of prominence and broad based appeal. After discussion, the committee decided to invite Father Bill Cunningham of Focus Hope in Detroit. J. Lore will formally contact Father Cunningham on behalf of the committee. In light of participants' preference for networking time, the committee decided not to have a luncheon speaker. Staff is working with the hotel on ways to divide the lunchroom, in order to decrease the noise and increase the feeling of intimacy. Noting that the conference is on a Friday and many conference participants usually leave before 5:00p.m., the committee decided not to have a closing speaker or formal reception. Instead, the conference will end at 4:00p.m. and space will be made available from 4:00p.m. to 5:00p.m. for anyone who would like to continue meeting/networking. 5. GGIV Pro~ram Outline and Assi~nments. After discussion, the committee agreed to nominate G. Romney to be the Honorary Chairman of Grantmakers/Grantseekers IV in honor of the 1992 Year of the Volunteer and his lifelong commitment to "Living our Mission: Meeting our Public's Needs." 2 �The committee reviewed the program from the previous seminars and decided on the following agenda: 8:00 - 9:00 9:00 - 9:45 9:45 - 10:00 10:00 - 11:45 12:00- 1:30 1:30- 1:45 1:45- 2:45 and 1:45- 4:00 Registration Opening Session Break Concurrent Sessions (5) Lunch Break 3:00- 4:00 Concurrent sessions (3 @ 1he in length, repeated) Concurrent sessions (2@ 2 bn; in length) After discussion, the committee decided on the following session topics and assignments: CONC.

Minutes of the Finance Committee Meetin~: October 1, 1991 -- 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. (UWM, 300 N. Washington Sq., Suite 405) Members Present: Staff Present: Joyce A. Brown Robert E. Ivory Donna M. Clarke Maryellen J. Lewis 1. Call to Order. With the Chair present, the meeting was called to order at 10:00 a.m. 2. Review of 1990=91 Financial Statement and 1991-92 Bud~:et: The committee reviewed and adopted the annual financial statement and recommended final adoption by the Executive Committee and the board. Because the Finance Committee was unable to meet before the August 6 Executive Committee meeting, this statement was provisionally adopted on 8/6 based on the Treasurer's report. The Finance Committee reviewed the construction of the 1991-92 budget: starting with the original Kellogg budget (11 months from Year 2 plus 1 month from Year 3, to adjust to MNF's fiscal year), then adding the fund balance from 1990-91, then adding the Grantmakers/Grantseekers budget for 1991-92. The committee adopted the budget, with the following changes (primarily concerning the unbudgeted Year 2 "fund balance"): A. Staff Development: $1500 will be transferred from the unbudgeted fund balance to staff development, which now has no budget. This will be used primarily for computer training and training of the administrative assistant on administrative skills (e.g., nonprofit accounting). B. EQuipment: Currently, a balance remains from funds allocated in Year 1 for the newly-networked computer system. Most of these funds are already �earmarked for that purpose. However, funds will be needed in Year 2 for the following, for which no budget now exists: - Postage meter - Car phone and related monthly costs - Peripheral software to fine-tune the new system -Repairs, including a pending computer repair on one of MNF's original computers For these purposes, $2500 will be transferred from the current fund balance to Equipment. C. AYmt: Estimates are now being sought for MNF's first audit. Based on experience, the UWM Director of Finance estimates that the cost will be between $3000 and $3500. For that purpose, $3500 will be moved to Other Expenses from the current fund balance. D. Rent and Utilities: Space is now being donated to MNF, and the cost of parking is minimal in the current location. However, the board should continue to anticipate realistic costs in the budget. This is particularly true since MNF has grown -- now with 3 staff and 2 interns -- and current space is inadequate. To anticipate the real costs of adequate office space and utilities, $2750 has been added to the current budget for Rent and $466.35 for Parking, taken from the current fund balance. E. Other Expenses: The rest of the fund balance ($3149.65) will be moved to Insurance, in anticipation of costs of Directors and Officers Liability Insurance (bids pending). 3. Review of First Ouarterly Report. The committee reviewed and adopted the first quarterly report, with a few format changes which will be incorporated in the 10/8 report to the Executive Committee. 4. Review of Income Sources. After discussion, the committee adopted the Proposed Sources of Other Income for 1991-92, with the following changes: A. Only $2,000 will be targeted from Individual Trustees (now 36 persons) B. $2,000 will be targeted from new Network Associates Check-writin~ 5. Policy. M. Lewis reported that now that MNF is located away from the United Way of Michigan, the current ceiling on checks without a co-signature ($1000) has proved to be very awkward and time-consuming. After discussion, the committee recommended that the board adopt a new ceiling of $2000. The committee also recommended that MNF staff be bonded. 6. Frin~e Benefits: M. Lewis reported that currently, MNF is exploring a possible arrangement with UWM for payroll and fringe benefits. Pending whether or not this 2 �arrangement is formalized, the committee recommended postponing further consideration of MNF fringe benefits. 7. Investment Policy: M. Lewis reported that currently and in the foreseeable future, MNF funds are invested in CO's and an interest-bearing checking account. The United Way of Michigan recently completed an investment policy, which the committee will review for the next meeting. No further action was taken. 8. Update on Audit and Accountin~: System. M. Lewis reported that bids are pending on the audit, estimated to cost $3000 - $3500. She also noted that a new accounting system has been installed (Peachtree Crystal for Windows) and staff are now receiving training. 9. Committee Structure and Schedule. After discussion, the committee agreed to request that the Chairman add additional Lansing-area members, to replace two members who have rotated off the board (Paul Borman and Ken Gruber). The committee also agreed to schedule regular quarterly meetings, two weeks after the close of each quarter. Staff will circulate possible dates. Monthly reports will be shared with the Committee Chairman/Treasurer, after executive review. 10. Adjournment. The meeting adjourned at 11:30 p.m. 3 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

MINUTES of the Public Policy Committee Meeting Friday, April 26, 1991 -- 2:00 to 4:00p.m. at the MASB Conference Room 421 W. Kalamazoo, Lansing, Michigan MEMBERS PRESENT: STAFF PRESENT: Edward 0. Blews, Jr. , Chair Richard H. Austin Constance S. Julius Justin P. King Sr. Monica Kostielney Mary Ann Pierce Herbert Yamanishi Donna M. Clarke Maryellen J. Lewis 1. Call to Order: With the chair present, the meeting was called to order at 2:15p.m. The chair welcomed those in attendance, making special note of the Honorable Richard H. Austin 's participation. 2. Principles of Jurisdiction & Consensus: The committee reviewed the Principles of Jurisdiction & Consensus which were approved at the April 4, 1991 meeting. This statement is designed to serve as a blueprint and to provide operational guidelines for the Michigan Nonprofit Forum's public policy committee. 3. Recommended MNF Positions: Consistent with the charge from the April 4, 1991 meeting, the committee discussed and recommended the following MNF positions: A. That the public policy committee recommend that the Board of Trustees of the Michigan Nonprofit Forum adopt a formal position emphatically opposing the proposed Financial Accounting Standards Board's changes to require nonprofit organizations to record as current revenues pledges of contributions, contributed works of art and items of historical significance, and contributed services, which would distort the financial statements of nonprofit organizations, create onerous administrative and appraisal burdens, impose �misleading and inaccurate assumptions, and potentially erode financial support for the nonprofit sector; and Further, that the Michigan Nonprofit Forum Executive Director be asked to convey this position to the financial accounting standards board. B. That the Board of the Michigan Nonprofit Forum unanimously adopt a position urging full funding of the preferred bulk mailing rate for nonprofit organizations. Further, that the Executive Director be authorized to convey this position to the Michigan congressional delegation and members of the conference committee, and to notify MNF trustees and other nonprofit leaders throughout Michigan. C. The public policy committee recommends that the Michigan Nonprofit Forum adopt a position urging congress not to renew (and certainly not to increase) the 3% floor or subtraction from schedule a deductions (including charitable contributions) from taxpayers with higher incomes, because such a floor is a philosophical and practical discouragement to charitable contributions which are so critical to the ability of nonprofit organizations to perform services which are so vital to the health, education and welfare of the nation, particularly those of modest means or from disadvantaged backgrounds, and which enormously reduce the demands and burdens of government; and Further, it is recommended that the Michigan Nonprofit Forum Board of Trustees adopt a position urging congress to restore the non-itemizers charitable contributions to further foster the services cited above and to encourage taxpayers of modest means to contribute; and Further, it is recommended that the Executive Director be authorized to communicate these positions and concerns as appropriate. The committee will continue to discuss the issues of concern in the proposed revisions of the Charitable Solicitation Act, however, to date they are not in a position to make any recommendations to the Board of Trustees. 4. Formation of Task Force on Protection of Nonprofit Volunteers. Directors & Officers: Because of limited time, the committee postponed this discussion to a later meeting. 5. Proposed Process for Michigan Nonprofit White Paper: After discussion the committee recommended that the Michigan Nonprofit Forum public policy committee, through its task force appointed for this purpose, endorse the development of the White Paper statement in the Michigan nonprofit sector through a process paralleling and utilizing the work being done on a similar national statement by the Independent Sector. �6. Reporting Procedures for Board of Directors Meeting: The committee agreed that the plans and position statements will be presented to the Board of Trustees by the committee chairman and recommended for approval and adoption. 7. Adjournment. The meeting adjourned at 4:00p.m. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Kalamazoo, Lansing, 3rd Floor conference Room ) Present: R. Kenneth Gruber Steven Johns-Boehme Maryellen J. Lewis Beverley L. McDonald Helen c. Philpott Shirley Stock Paul R. Williams Herb Yamanishi 1. Welcome and Introductions. Co-Chairs Beverley McDonald and Helen Philpott convened the meeting at 1:10 and introduced members. 1. Review of the Committee's Responsibilities and Str ucture. M. Lewis reviewed the purposes of the Committee from the Bylaws, including the provision for inclusion of non-Trustee members. After some discussion, the committee agreed with S. Johns-Boehme's proposal that this committee serves three primary purposes: a. Initiation of programs -- that is, new program ideas will be reviewed, developed and even conceived here, for recommendation to the full Board. b. Coordination of programs -- that is, since MNF programs cut across all parts of the nonprofit sector, this committee's members {themselves representing diverse parts of t:he sector) will carry responsibility for coordinating among their networks in the planning and development stages of MNF's broad-based initiatives. c. Support of and leadership for MNF programs during implementation. Where this is required, it may take the form, for example, of Task Forces or Work Groups, each carrying responsibility for a particular �initiative that requires coordination across the nonprofit sector. 3. Review of MNF's Four Mission Areas. M. Lewis presented the Forum's mission statement and its four parts, which form t h e basis for programming: Promoting philanthropy, p r omoting voluntarism, increasing public awareness of the nonprofit sector, and improving the capacity of the nonprofit sector in Michigan. 4 . Review of the 10/16/90 MNF Board brainstorming list. The summary (attached) was discussed and clarified. 5. Proaram Uodate. M. Lewis reported on programming since J u ne 1990 (outline attached). 6. Brainstorming: Discussion of the Four Mission Areas. During the discussion, several issues were emphasized for potential program development: a. H. Yamanishi uc·ged that MNF define more precisely what is a nonprofit, both for public understanding and to guide policy. b. P. Williams emphasized leadership issues (citing Peter Drucker) as critical for the sector, including a sense of mission and even how to let go when the mission is accomplished. Can the Forum be helpful here? c. B. McDonald agreed, adding that leadership skills are distinct from management skills, which are also underdeveloped in the sector. can the Forum be helpful here? c. P. Williams suggested, and the committee agreed, that the issue of Government vs. Nonprofit Responsibilities is a critical area for public dialogue and understanding. He suggested a series of videotaped discussions, with Discussion Guides, that could appear on Public TV but also could be circulated throughout the state in orchestrated discussion groups. 7. Follow-up. The videotape concept was assigned to staff, to explore with the MNf Chair and other Trustees and to bring back to this committee. 8. The committee adjourned at 3:45. �MICHIGAN 34NONPROFIT FORUM KELLOGG CENTER EAST LANSING, MICIDGAN 48824-1022 Phone: 517/353-5038 Fax : 517/353-1872 Summary of Small Group Reports from t h e 10/16/90 Meeting of the MN F Board of Trustees I. "To promote the awareness of Michigan's nonprofit sector" Group 1 concluded that a great deal is being done to make the public aware of specific segments of the nonprofit sector, but little is being done to promote general awareness of the sector as a whole . The group discussed four steps which could be taken to address this information gap: 1) 2) 3) 4) Clarify public understanding of the identity of the nonprofit sector Combine resources of member agencies to raise the general awareness Convene educational, legislative, and media groups to educate them Find and recognize outstanding nonprofits II. "To promote the effectiveness of Michigan's nonprofit sector" Group 2 discussed the concept of effectiveness and discussed ten ways in which they felt the overall effectiveness of nonprofits could be increased: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) 10) Share information Broker technical expertise Form a clearinghouse of ideas Share program and service successes Coordinate advocacy on issues of concern Offer professional developmental services (promote expert i se for nonprofits) Find ways to introduce philanthropy into public education and the general community Increase positive image of nonprofits (e.g., through the press) Emphasize connection between non- and forprofit sectors Promote the sector's ability to communicate successes �III "To advance the cause of voluntarism" Group 3 discussed the need to {1) promote greater public understanding of the rationale for volunteering, and (2) involve schools and colleges in volunteer efforts to foster a lifelong commitment to volunteering by today's youth. The group made two recommendations: IV. 1) MNF should be supportive of Michigan's volunteer institutions, including at least the thirteen volunteer centers and the United Ways, as they prepare for the President's Points of Light Foundation media blitz and its implications for Michigan. 2) A voluntarism coordinating committee needs to be established through the MNF. This committee would most appropriately be chaired by George Romney. "To advance the cause of philanthropy" Group 4 discussed ten proposals which they felt would advance the cause of philanthropy: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) Research and analyze contribution data in Michigan in order to determine where gaps exist. This information should be provided to the Media. Initiate a "Give 5" campaign. Disseminate information on the standards of fundraising. Educate organizations on the Charitable Solicitation Act. Focus on education (K-12). Also focus on foreign companies. Aim to help philanthropy become more pluralistic, i.e., to include minorities. MNF can provide information on various nonprofits, in order to encourage others to improve and collaborate (e.g., for greater cost-effectiveness). �MICHIGAN NONPROFIT FORUM 34 KELLOGG CENTER EAST LANSING, 1\UClllGAN 48824-1022 Phone: 5171353-5038 Fax: 517/353-1872 Program Report (2/19/91) I.

The Trustees broke into four groups for discussion of MNF's four Mission Areas. IV. Reports of Small Groups to the Whole: Mission Area I: "To promote the awareness of Michigan's nonprofit sector." Group 1 concluded that a great deal is being done to make the public aware of specific segments of the nonprofit sector, but l1ttle to promote general awareness.

The groups made two recommendations. 1) MNF should be supportive of Michigan's volunteer institutions, including at least the thirteen volunteer centers and the United Ways, as they prepare for the President's Points of Light Foundation media blitz and its implications for Michigan. 2) An MNF voluntarism coordinating committee needs to be established. This Committee would most appropriately be chaired by George Romney. Its main function would be (a) to identify and contact all groups who need to know about the 1991 "blitz " and (b) set the stage for the continuation of these efforts beyond the "blitz". The Trustees unanimously approved the creation of an HNF Board committee -- the Coordinating Committee on Voluntarism -- to facilitate a statewide initiative for voluntarism in Michigan. Further, they approved the proposal that the bipartisan leadership of the Coalition become the leadership of the Forum's Coordinating Committee (now himself as Chair, and Janet Blanchard and Judith Hooker as Co-chairs). Membership of the Coordinating Committee will be open to nonTrustees and will consist of broad-based organizations and networks with significant impact on volunteering in Michigan. Mission Area IV: "To advance the cause of philanthropy" Group 4 discussed several proposals which they felt would advance the cause of philanthropy: 1) 2) Research and analyze contribution data in Michigan in order to determine where gaps exist.

Minutes of the MNF Membership Committee Meeting Wednesday. April 3. 1991 -- 10:00 to 12:00 (421 W. Kalamazoo Street, Lansing-- Third Floor Conference Room) Trustees Present: B. Goldman (Chair), J. King, L. Young Staff present: D. Clarke, M. Lewis 1. Welcome and Call to Order. B. Goldman welcomed the Committee and called the meeting to order at 10:05. 2. Review of the Minutes. Minutes of the March 19, 1991 meeting were approved as corrected. 3. Review of the Proposed Membership Structure. J. King and M. Lewis reported on the related Finance Committee meeting on March 27, where the issue of membership dues was briefly discussed and a special Finance Subcommittee on Membership Dues was appointed. J. King will attend that meeting on April 18, and B. Goldman will also try to attend. Membership Committee members reaffirmed that this Committee is responsible for developing the conceptual framework and guidelines for membership, not the specific dollar amounts, which will be proposed by the Finance Committee. 4. Review of the proposed Bylaws Amendment. The Committee approved the proposed Bylaws Amendment, with several revisions: Article 1(1), end of the second paragraph: "At-Large Members shall serve terms of two years and may succeed themselves. Elected Associate Members shall serve two-year terms and may not succeed themselves more than once." Article 1(2), next to last paragraph: "shall be elected" (not "selected") Article 1(2), end of the last paragraph: "All Trustees shall have equal rights and privileges." Article III(2): "At-Large Members shall serve two-year terms and may succeed themselves. Elected Associate Members shall serve two-year terms and may not succeed themselves more than once." �The ~endment ~ill allow five new Board positions, to be elected from among the nonvotmg Assoc1ate Members. After some discussion, the Committee was unable to resolve the confusion over names of membership categories (e.g., the use of "members" for both voting and nonvoting positions). This issue was therefore postponed to a future discussion. In a related discussion, concern was expressed about certain confusing passages in the Bylaws. However, the Committee agreed that none of them represented serious obstacles at the moment. Instead, the Committee will recommend that the Board conduct a complete review of the Bylaws at the end of Year 3. 5. Recommendations of a Dues/Contribution Structure. The Committee agreed to recommend to the Finance Committee that a "stairstep" design for dues would be much preferable to either of the standard "percentage of budget" models. 6. Initial Discussion of an Associate Membership Campaign. Committee members agreed that a membership campaign could be developed over the summer and mounted in the fall, giving the Committee nearly two years to build the membership base before the end of the Kellogg grant in June 1993. 7. Follow-up Tasks and Assigments to Staff. The Committee requested that a summary of the Finance Subcommittee on Membership meeting be sent to each of them. The Committee also noted for the next meeting that they must develop a clearer definition of policies and procedures for nominations, and must also consider the transition of new members and procedures for delinquent members (e.g., those who default on dues). 8. The Meeting adjourned at 12:00. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
