Towsley Foundation. As you know, this funding MCC has continued the Venture Grant Program during Cycles 22 and 23, and supplementing other grant programs in the Mid-Michigan area. We have been successful in covering the needs of Mid-Michigan institutions of Higher Education. Hope College Jackson Community College Kakunwo College Kalamuxio Valley Community College KirtUtuI Community College Lansing Community College Madonna Unhvrsity Marygnnv College On July 1, 2001, Michigan Campus Compact entered a new affiliation with the ConnectMichigan Alliance. As a result of this affliction we, have joined several other non profits and the Michigan Community Service Commission to looking at impacting the whole state with each of our constituent groups. To that point, we would like to request that the monies granted by the Towsley Foundation to be opened to the rest of the state colleges and universities. This follows the theme of statewide volunteerism and service, as promoted by the ConnectMichigan theme. The monies will continue to impact the Mid-Michigan area, but also other areas of that state, allowing for many creative and innovative service programs that benefit the whole network of campuses and engage many students in community service. Micliigan Stale University Mid Michigan Community College Nortlwood University Olivet College I will be following up with a phone call in about a week to discuss this issue further.

After careful review, we regret to advise that we are unable to provide the support you seek. Many factors are included in the evaluation of proposals by our Foundation. Geography plays a role in that we may have exceeded our budgets in a given geographic area. Program area plays a role in that we may have exceeded our budgets in a given category. Some appeals, while meritorious, do not fall into a target area of our giving priorities. Your proposal was well presented. It was not denied because of failure on your part. Each year we must decline many meaningful appeals for the simple but important reason that our funds our limited, while requests for those funds are not. We wish you every success and hope you will be able to secure the funding you need for your endeavors. Sincerely, Vicki Chatland Office Manager 14O ASHMAN STREET • P.O.

Secchia 2801 East Beltline, NE Grand Rapids, Ml 49525 616-365-1200 phone; 616-365-0060 fax TO: John Lore - President & CEO of Connect Michigan COPY: Michelle Engler, Diana Sieger DATE: December 6, 2001 SUBJECT: "Efficiency" I enjoyed meeting you Tuesday and must say that you seem to have a "grasp" of the issues facing "Connect Michigan." Thank you for the efforts that you are putting forth. This project will be a success. After I left the meeting, I did those tasks that we agreed that I would do, and now I look forward to receiving my copies of the letters "from Michelle." I am copying her on this memo because I want her to hear what I said to you in the meeting. I.e.: "Michelle is a sweetheart and will probably try to soften any "hit" letter that you want to write. However, try to make it emphatic that if this is important to her and John, her emphasis will make a difference. Everybody loves Michelle." That being said, some of the notes that I sent out to the "potentials" will be copied to you in a "BCC" form. The personal notes telling them to hit the hip, and/or to match another's gift, is best between them and me. I look toward the opportunity to go forward under your leadership. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to your family. 1 �fa~ \ / \1/ G-: (Y ConnectMichigan Alliance Gift Snapshot \)!~ ...

General Contractors/Construction Managers January 21,2002 Mrs. Michelle Engler Connect Michigan Campaign PO Box 22004 Lansing, Ml 48909-2004 Dear Michelle: I have received your request on behalf of the Connect Michigan Campaign. We at Rockford Construction, and Chris and I personally, are in the process of completing all the commitments we have made to the various charities in need here in West Michigan. At this time, we have not completed where we stand financially. It is no secret that there is no shortage of places to put our funds and we have made major commitments to Ferris State University, Aquinas College Scholarship Fund, God's Kitchen, Henry Street Elementary School, Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, as well as many others and do not want to make any commitments we can not keep. We should have everything finalized around April 15, 2002. At that point, we will have an opportunity to revisit this request. In the meantime, thank you for all the support you and John give to the State of Michigan. I look forward to chatting with you in the future. Respectfully, Rockford Construction Company, Inc.

Box 22004 Lansing, MI 48909-2004 Dear Ms. Engler: We at Bank One recognize that strong communities create vibrant living and healthy business environments for all of us. Agencies that receive our support, therefore, enrich our local communities by making them safer and more prosperous places in which to live, work and grow. We are proud to help perpetuate West Michigan's quality of life through our support of education; community development and housing; health and human services; culture and arts; and civic and community programs. Bank One's local Corporate Contributions Committee has recently reviewed your request for a $150,000 grant for the CMA along with proposals of many other organizations. We looked at the requests based on our Corporate Contributions Guidelines, our previous mix of gifts to the community, and apparent need. While Committee members value your commitment to local non-profits and volunteer programs, we regret we are unable to support your request as our guidelines preclude support for endowment funds. As always, please call me at (616) 771-7409 if you have questions. Best wishes for a successful campaign. Sincerely, Ruth J.

Congratulations on your new venture. I appreciated the opportunity to learn more about the current status of Connect Michigan Alliance. I promised to get back to you as to whether this project may fit within the Foundation's geographic and programmatic missions and therefore be considered by the Foundation. You identified the Learning to Give component of the Connect Michigan Alliance, in partnership with the Council of Michigan Foundations, as the component most closely aligned with the programmatic and geographic missions of The Skillman Foundation. After an in-depth review the project as outlined in your Joint Venture Proposal, including review by the program staff of the Foundation, I regret to say that the proposed project does not fit within the Foundation's mission. Although the Learning to Give curriculum is an organized way for young people to learn about philanthropy, the Foundation does not support curriculum development or promotion of a specific curriculum. Our school reform initiatives under the Learning Opportunities program area of interest are aimed at improving student achievement through school-wide and district-wide systemic reforms. Chief among these initiatives are the Comer Schools and Families Initiative with the Detroit Public Schools and the Schools for the 21st Century initiative. Further, the Foundation's geographic focus generally precludes grants to organizations outside the tri-county area of Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties, even for programs that will be implemented in this area. In this case, the applicant organization is located in Lansing. Finally, the Foundation also does not make grants for endowments and the request is for an endowment. The Skillman Foundation wishes you and the Connect Michigan Alliance project all success in raising the necessary funds to meet the challenge grant. We regret that we are not able to support all of the terrific projects that impact children and youth that are presented to the Foundation, especially projects led by such highly effective staff and volunteers as the Connect Michigan Alliance. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Your gift is eligible for a 100 percent match from a $10 million challenge grant issued by the State of Michigan. This means it triggers the immediate deposit of a matching gift equal to the entire amount of your gift into the ConnectMichigan Alliance permanent endowment fund held at the Capital Region Community Foundation.

We carefully considered your recent request to help to establish a $20 million endowment fund with a $50,000 contribution from Haworth. We are sympathetic to your needs. However, we regret that we cannot respond favorably at this time as we receive many more requests for contributions than we can hope to satisfy. Because our main focus is education, we have given considerably in this area and are sorry we cannot support your request. We would like to be in a financial position to assist all requests within our focus. But our resources are limited. Many worthy requests must thus be declined simply because funds to accept them are not available.

Richardson Campaign Cabinet Edward O. Blews Carolyn Bloodworth Dear Rich: Pete Secchia has informed me that you may reconsider our original proposal. John and I thought that a report on our progress towards leveraging the state's $10 million match in creating a $20 million endowment fund might be useful in your deliberations. As of today, ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) has realized over $7 million of its $10 million goal. Last week we received a major boost to the campaign as The Kresge Foundation pledged a $1 million challenge grant to raise the remaining $3.4 million. We expect favorable responses regarding at least two other major requests in the next sixty days. John met with General Motors last week and we are hopeful. There are four geographic regions to the CMA campaign. We have every indication at this point that we will reach our campaign goals in Southeastern Michigan, Midland and out-state communities. Your favorable disposition to CMA's request would be very timely as several requests are currently under consideration in West Michigan. An updated version of CMA's original proposal is attached. Your support will be part of a $20 million endowment supporting volunteerism and service throughout the state. Because of the state commitment, your contribution will be matched, dollar-for-dollar, by the State of Michigan. Your support will also help to leverage the $1 million challenge grant from The Kresge Foundation. Nonie Brennan Stanley P. Caine Richard Cole Robert Collier Neeta Delaney David 0. Egner Eric R.

Box 22004 Lansing, Michigan 48909-2004 • phone 888-242-7075 fax 517-241-3869 Building, Strengthening and Investing in Michigan Communities A partnership of: Michigan Campus Compact, Michigan Community Service Commission, Michigan Nonprofit Association, Volunteer Centers of Michigan �Grant Request Date: April 12, 2002 Applicant: ConnectMichigan Alliance John S. Lore, President and CEO Amount Requested: $500,000 Summary: CMA was created to ensure strong, stable and coordinated support for Michigan's volunteers. Through a $20 million endowment, CMA is uniting the combined forces of its four founding partners; Michigan Campus Compact; Michigan Community Service Commission; Michigan Nonprofit Association; and Volunteer Centers of Michigan, to permanently sustain and expand the "volunteer infrastructure" for which Michigan is known and heralded. Once the campaign is complete, CMA will have the capacity to fully advance upon achieving its goal of providing avenues for every Michigan citizen to serve their community through volunteer service and civic action. This goal will be met in local communities throughout Michigan by: • • • • Increasing access to training and technical assistance necessary to build the capacity of local nonprofits to address communities' social, charitable, economic, cultural, educational, faith-based, and civic needs; Increasing grant opportunities to engage more citizens in volunteerism and service; Maximizing public resources to empower local communities to address their local challenges; and Increasing the understanding and use of service-learning in the work of community-based nonprofits, K-12 schools and higher education institutions. Local Impact: CMA creates a more comprehensive and collaborative approach to community building, improving the ability of West-Michigan nonprofit and public organizations and institutions to address local needs. As a partner in local initiatives, CMA is not prescriptive in the application of its resources. Local nonprofits identify community needs and access and apply CMA programs and services in a manner that best serves the West-Michigan area. In West Michigan, CMA will work closely with the Heart of West Michigan Volunteer Center, Aquinas College, Davenport University, Calvin College, Grand Rapids Community College, Grand Valley State University, local school districts such as Grand Rapids Public Schools, and the Grand Rapids Community Foundation. These collaborative partnerships will ensure CMA programs and services enhance the capacity of local nonprofit organizations that contribute significantly to improving the quality in West Michigan. The following illustrate CMA's direct impact on West Michigan • • • • • • • Nonprofit organizations will have more skilled and dedicated volunteers and board members because of increased access to regional professional development workshops and seminars. The Heart of West Michigan Volunteer Center will increase its organizational capacity to provide universal access for every local citizen to serve. Nonprofit organizations will have access to resources necessary to convene local partners in the development of marketspecific programming that encourages youth volunteerism, family volunteerism, rural business volunteer councils, and urban corporate volunteer councils. Thousands of local students will experience the benefits of volunteerism before graduating from high school and will have increased learning through "hands-on" and meaningful learning opportunities that are tied to "real-life" experiences. Michigan Campus Compact (MCC) will increase service-learning and civic engagement programming to reach all West Michigan institutions of higher education. This programming will involve thousands of students in local volunteer activities throughout the community. Nonprofit organizations will have increased capacity for programming that may include, but is not limited to, America's Promise, Make A Difference Day, National Volunteer Week, and National Youth Service Day. Nonprofit organizations will have increased capacity to promote initiatives and recognize the impact of individuals and groups that participate in service-learning, civic engagement and volunteerism in communities throughout West Michigan. Funding: In June 2000, Governor Engler and the Michigan Legislature provided a challenge grant for the CMA Endowment. This grant provides up to $10 million that must be matched dollar-for-dollar by November 2002. The CMA Endowment Fund is managed by the Capital Region Community Foundation, 6053 Executive Drive, Suite 104, Lansing, MI 48911.

Richardson Mr. Richard DeVos RDV Corporation 126 Ottawa NW Grand Rapids, Michigan 49503 Campaign Cabinet Edward O. BlewCarolyn Bloodworth ISonie Brennan Dear Rich: Thank you so much for your interest in the ConnectMichigan Alliance, Michigan's vision for institutionalizing support for our state's volunteers. As we have discussed, the ConnectMichigan Alliance is a new public/private partnership being viewed as a national model for its new way of doing business in the nonprofit sector. The ConnectMichigan Alliance (an incorporated 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization) was created with the belief that it is at the community level that problems are solved, but it is the state level "infrastructure" that helps to develop and sustain local efforts. Rather than looking just to government to solve community problems, the ConnectMichigan Alliance partners the private sector with government to provide communities with the resources, technical assistance and long-term support to volunteers who help address our most vexing challenges. The Alliance will ensure that statewide support of volunteer efforts is insulated from the tides of political change and turmoil while reducing future dependence on government support. As you know, Michigan has a long history and tradition of creating innovative community solutions through public/private initiatives. Ours was one of the first states to create a state commission on service and volunteerism—the Michigan Community Service Commission. Michigan is the home to other nationally recognized firsts: forming a statewide nonprofit association, a coalition of higher education institutions that view service as an important part of campus life, and a trade association of volunteer centers—clearinghouses for volunteers and volunteer opportunities. Each of these organizations is coming together in a unique way through the ConnectMichigan Alliance. Stanley P. Caine Richard Cole Robert Collier Neeta Delaney David 0. Egner Eric R.
