The Sun Sprint involved using problem solving, math and science to build a solar-powered racecar and then racing it. In the Trash Dash, students were given supplies to build a battery-operated racecar out of reusable materials. Both projects allowed students to learn more about energy transfer, aerodynamics, renewable energy applications as well as waste and resource management. Teachers were given packets to guide them in a teaching curriculum as they guide their students as they design, build and then race their creations. The most significant grant was a 3-year, $75,000 grant to the Neutral Zone (Ann Arbor's teen center) for new program at their new location. This grant was part of a larger grant (total of $150,000 over three years) made in collaboration with AAACF’s Distribution Committee. This will allow NZ to focus on new program offerings to teens in the community as well as provide time for NZ to develop a strategy for long-term program sustainability. Last year we granted $4,800 to Barry County Christian School. They used this money to purchase supplies to create a Quality baseball program. I feel that this grant had the largest impact on our community because Barry County Christian didn't have a baseball program before this grant. This cooperative project between the Monroe County Sheriff’s Department and all the fourth graders in Bedford Schools, involved the fourth graders writing letters to the senior students at the high school. The letters told the seniors how they were role models for the younger students and how important it was for them not to drink or use drugs. All the fourth grade students were taken to the high school to personally deliver their letters to the seniors. Senior students reported that it really made an impact to know how the younger kids viewed them and to see how important it was to be a good role model for the younger students. New Buffalo Foursquare Church--New Buffalo Community Youth Center. Funding for development and maintenance of recreational and healthful programs at NBCYC, so that the potential of the youth population will be maximized. The grant we made to Pregnancy Services of Greater Lansing for their SMART (Sexually Mature Aware Responsible Teens) program. Our grant helped cover the cost of employment for part-time presenters to area middle and high schools, encouraging teens to choose abstinence from pre-marital sexual activity and related behaviors. Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation Barry Community Foundation Bedford Community Foundation Berrien Community Foundation Capital Region Community Foundation �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Charlevoix County Community Foundation A grant to North Central Michigan College in support of the Native American Mentoring Program. The program will bring 30 Native American students (grades 7 - 9) to the college campus for a 5-day residential summer youth camp experience. The purpose of the camp experience is to expose the students to a college setting, mentoring in career guidance, and a renewal of their Native American culture. They gave money to a Library for a Summer Reading Program. That should impact the kids a good way by keeping them excited about reading in the summer. Clare County Community Foundation ClioYAC Community Foundation for Muskegon County Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field The grant with the most impact in 2007 in my opinion would be the Clio High School - High Impact Alcohol Awareness Program - Save A Life Tour. This program provided education to high school students about the risks involved in underage drinking in an interactive and innovate manner. Students participated in video game-type driving simulations as well as heard from speakers with personal or family instances of tragedy related to drinking and driving. While this grant was for $2,000 it doesn't show up in the above figures because it was made during the middle of the YAC year which falls after the end of the Foundation's fiscal year. The YAC granted $30,000 to the County of Muskegon to support the Juvenile Justice Needs Assessment portion of the Muskegon County Master Plan. This needs assessment will be linked with the Family Court Title V Juvenile Delinquency assessment to develop a comprehensive vision for meeting future juvenile justice needs in Muskegon County. As one of our YAC students said, "I think the Ready, Set, Swim! Project is the best grant we've ever given." This project is designed to teach area youth how to swim at an early age. The student said he would probably be a better swimmer if the project had been around when he was younger. (He's a pretty insightful eleventh grader.) The Youth Initiative awarded a grant to Southwest Counseling Solutions for support for a mentoring program for at-risk youth, matching 10 peer mentors with 20 youth (1 youth/1 mentor for a 6-month period of time) to provide opportunities for the mentors to offer encouragement and support. The YAC members themselves recruited and trained the peer mentors. The mentors and youth participated in in weekly activities including workshops, youth groups, game and movie nights and group outings. The YAC members felt this was an important connection because they believe that troubled youth are more likely to learn form their peers than from adults. They also identified benefits for the mentors, such as public speaking skills and developing leadership skills. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Community Foundation of Greater Rochester Girls on the Run: We granted $5,000 to start a Girls on the Run program here in Rochester. The program teaches young girls how to reach goals and have confidence in themselves. It uses aerobic training activities building up to a 5k run at the end of the program year. Be The Change Group - Purpose to break down walls and learn to respect each other at the school level for who each student within a school system. In 2006 the Youth Advisory Committee funded the Suspending Bridges Program at the Bridge Youth Ministry Center in Zeeland Michigan. The Suspension program serves middle school students on out-of-school suspension. On the day(s) of suspension, students report to The Bridge, an after school program, for a day of tutoring, behavior management, community service, nutrition and health. This program was so successful in the Zeeland Community School District that the YAC funded another organization to replicate the model in the West Ottawa School District. The YAC awarded a grant for $3,500 for the Linden High School Start Spring Smart Project. In my opinion this was the most impactful grant as it reached the total school population of an area high school with speakers, and activities reinforcing the importance of good decision making, particularly as it relates to drug and alcohol use. The project occurs every year right before spring break which is a high risk time for youth to be involved in risky behaviors. Our YAC gave a grant of $15,000 to help build the Mulligan's Hollow Skate Park. This grant will provide fun, safe recreational activities for 10,000 skate boarders and BMX bikers each year. Community Foundation of Monroe County Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area Fenton Area Community Fund Grand Haven Area Community Foundation Coopersville Area Community Foundation Grand Rapids Community Foundation Greenville Area Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field NEOFORUM- helps the school and city with a program that addresses poor choices in alcohol, drugs etc. though the presence of a police office and counselor on campus to educate the students on correct behavior and to help to prevent or control some of the poorer choices. Library- Designated a youth laptop for after school usage. The YGC's greatest impact this year came not from a grant, but from the press they generated around the release of the survey results. Local media gave this survey significant coverage. Mentor a Mom program where young mothers are matched up with mentors to provide support as they learn how to be a parent. There are play dates for the mothers, children and mentors as well as educational programs. This is a program that closely aligns with one of the focus areas that was determined as a need by the youth in the community. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Hillsdale County Community Foundation $4,916.87 was granted to the Digital Desktop Publishing Class at Hillsdale High School. These funds were used to fund costs associated with creating and distributing a series of studentcreated “What’s Your Anti-Drug” commercials. These commercials were distributed to local schools in Hillsdale County through the Channel One system, and were also aired on the local community access cable channel. Huron County Community Foundation YAC was a sponsor of the "Embrace our Earth" Day a Huron Intermediate School District event that is aimed at youth and the community at large to foster a respect and appreciation for our environment. To provide matching funds to open a library Ionia County Community Foundation Iosco County Community Foundation Jackson County Community Foundation Kalamazoo Community Foundation/Youth United Way Keweenaw Community Foundation Leelanau Township Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field YAC awarded a grant to a Challenge Day motivational assembly for all Iosco County students. The main focus was on understanding peers, eliminating the "clique" society of high school, bridging gaps between the popular and the not-sopopular, etc. Reviews of the assembly from other schools and from students who had attended it before were glowing. Students said they made new friends that day with kids they had sat by, but to whom they have never spoken. $5,000 was given to Project Reconnect which funded a get-away for 55 soldiers in our county returning from Iraq, along with their families. The grant the group feels has the greatest chance for impact was given to Catholic Family Services to hold classes for Pregnant and/or Parenting Teens. We feel that by teaching teens to be better parents, the cycle of teens having babies who will be teen parents can be broken. The parent, whether a teen or not, is the first teacher of every child and we want every teen who is a parent to have the skills necessary to help their children succeed. The YAC has just begun to grant after a period of inactivity. They granted to the Keweenaw Krayons at the end of the 2006/2007 school year for the Keweenaw Guerrillas program. The program aimed at involving teens and pre-teens in a community activity wherein they can feel a sense of community by helping others in a very different way. The YAC put on an event called YACapalooza. It was a community event that was held the same week-end as National Turn-Off your T.V. Week-end. There was food, music and activities for youth and adults as well. It brought together the Community and made people a lot more aware of YAC and what they are about. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Lenawee Community Foundation Catholic Charities of Lenawee received monies to support a 12 step program for teens. The goal of the program is to provide a safe place to assist youth toward recovery from alcohol and chemical dependency, and help teens develop healthy coping skills, by sharing thoughts and feelings about their current conditions and future plans. Because of the numbers involved 2 different groups of 15 met every other week. The initial program evolved to serve only boys, because of the numbers wanting help and another grant was fulfilled in our current fiscal year to provide 2 groups one for males and one for females. This year one of our past foundation presidents wanted to recognize area youth for their volunteer efforts. She brought the idea to the YACs and challenged them to come up with a plan to achieve her vision. The YACs developed the Young Philanthropist Award which recognizes young volunteer for their commitment to community service. The recipient receives a scholarship and a donation is made to the charity of their choice in their name. They awarded $5000 to the Moosewood Nature Center to provide outdoor classroom activities to over $1500 pre-K to HS students in Marquette County. An indirect benefit is the exposure Moosewood received. The River Safety Project here in Big Rapids. The YAC students asked the committee to come in for a presentation. They presented a grant request and the group approved. The funds were used to purchase a water safety sign along the river with the MCYAC logo. The Midland County Juvenile Care Center was given a grant that funded 4-eight week sessions providing a series of critical life skills in a safe, controlled environment involving the Midland Community Center's rock climbing wall. The participants started by learning physical and mental aspects of climbing safety, and the importance of trust and responsibility. Each week they learned skills like overcoming fear, trusting others, communicating effectively...etc. This project helped change the lives of kids in need and get them thinking about how they can change their lives for the better. M&M Area Community Foundation Marquette Community Foundation Mecosta County Community Foundation Midland Area Community Foundation The Living Hope Assembly of God in Beaverton was granted $6040. The purpose of this grant was to fund a Family Park that is free of drugs and alcohol and encouraging family unity. Its central location would be accessible to economically challenged families. YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation In October 2006, the YAC awarded a $5,000 grant to Mt. Pleasant High School to help support their "Teen Summit" and to specifically fund representative from the "Challenge Day" Program to be involved in the day. The Teen Summit was held in February 2007 and was set up like a conference with a variety of speakers/presentations available for students to choose from with the topics falling under the broad umbrella of Teen Victimization. There were small intensive breakout sessions during the day and a concluding keynote speaker from Challenge Day with their empowering "Be the Change" message. Student and staff groups spent months planning the Summit and 1500 students A $1,200 grant was awarded to Mio-AuSable School District for a Mobile Lab initiative, which purchased laptop computers for the high school. Because this school is so rural and lacks much needed funding, this grant provided an opportunity for students to have access to current technology and develop more of the skills needed to succeed in today's business world. Mini-Grants for Educators. It really helps educators provide programs that are above and beyond the basics. Because funding for education in Michigan is extremely tight, the mini-grants for educators can make the difference. Vanderbilt Middle School Family Night- Provided a program for families to enjoy activities together. The program was conducted the fall of 2006 and winter of 2007. Between 40 and 70 families participated each week. The "Connecting" Art Project for Youth in the Probate Court School had a big impact with those youth and the community that works with at risk youth. This grant received a "Great Grant" award this past summer at the Youth Summer Leadership Conference. Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) for the Houghton Lake Community Schools "County Wide Health Fair". Approximately 350 people attended the fair. There was also an assembly for K-12 students which had a speaker who addressed all the students about the need to make wise choices in their lives. Emphasized were the dangers of tobacco, alcohol and other drugs. The speaker also addressed parents at a well-attended parent meeting. In addition to the above mentioned issues were the following: proper dental care with free tooth brushes, sun awareness, seatbelt safety, healthy weight and exercise awareness. Curves, Weight Watchers and American Cancer Society had tables. North Central Michigan Community Foundation Osceola County Community Foundation Otsego County Community Foundation Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation Roscommon County Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Saginaw Community Foundation FORCE In a matter of four days, Azim Khamisa reached out to over 2,600 students, youth, teachers, and community members to help spread his message of civic responsibility, anti-violence, and human understanding. His inspiring journey lasted from April 24th to April 28th, and was sponsored by many community organizations including a $1,000.00 grant from the Saginaw Community Foundation’s Youth FORCE. In 1995, Tariq Khamisa, a student at San Diego State University and Azim Khamisa?s only son, was shot and killed by 14-yearold Tony Hickes, while delivering pizzas. Since that day, Azim’s life has never been the same. Instead of choosing a life of retribution and revenge, he decided to take action and make something positive happen from his son’s tragedy. He went from a successful international investment banker to a social worker in a matter of months, starting the Tariq Khamisa Foundation (TKF) to stop kids from killing kids. Azim brought his message to Saginaw, confronting middle school and high school students about a topic that is not easy to talk about- youth and gang violence. However, having first-hand knowledge of the effects of violence, Azim more than captured the audiences’ attention- he engaged them. During one portion of Azim’s presentation, he asks the audience “how many of you have lost a family member to violence”. The number of students in 6th grade that raised their hands was astonishing. At some of the schools, seventy five percent of the students stated that they had lost someone close to them due to violence. Sanilac Count Community Foundation Southeast Ottawa Community Foundation Straits Area Community Foundation YAC 2007 Annual Survey Report to the Field During Azim’s trip, the message he shared will surely resonate with students long after he is gone. He had a connection with the students, an understanding. During his presentation at the Saginaw County Juvenile Detention Center, many of the kids were in tears. Because Azim’s message was hitting so close to home, the youth were talking about him well after he was gone and many wrote thank-you letters expressing their gratitude for such a positive and life-altering experience. Grant to Sanilac County Kids' Connection for Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention Program Fund the Ottawa County Mentoring Collaborative, which matches mentees with mentors, provides support, training, and incentives to mentors in Ottawa County. A $1,500 grant to an elementary school was a large contributor to a 5th grade class being able to travel to Philadelphia, PA to visit the historic sights. For many students in the Straits area, this is the farthest they ever have, or perhaps ever will, travel. Without this grant, the trip was not likely to have happened. �YAC 2007 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Sturgis Area Community Foundation $10,000 grant for a program for middle school student called "Be the Change"-it is an anti-bullying, awareness program that received rave reviews from students and parents in the community. Tuscola County Community Foundation $5,000.00 was granted to the Human Development Commission to assist that organization with the development of an AfterSchool Latch Key Program. This program will be open from 3:15 to 6:00 p.m. Monday thru Friday and be open for Kindergarten through grade school students. The unique point of this program is that it will be integrated with a program that provides a similar type of service for senior citizens. So, not only will a valuable community service be provided, but young children and senior citizens will benefit from this group interaction. To fund a teen after-hours program at the library.

This is just another small way we can all participate in transforming Michigan. Here are a few ways we've greened things up: Paper-less, but not Paper-free While not yet paper-free, we tried to lessen the amount of paper used and distributed in the following ways: Biodegradable Pens and Conference Banners The bio-pen attached to your program guide is 80% biodegradable and our large conference banners are printed on biodegradable vinyl. ~ Conference Program, Learning Journal & Roster The program guide is printed on recycled paper and a participant roster was e-m ailed to participants prior to the event instead of being included in the print program, reducing the number of program pages by half. Plastic Nametag Reuse Each year, we reuse the plastic nametags returned at the registration booth after the conference. Be sure to stop by and turn yours in at the close of the conference. ~ Session Handouts Speakers were asked to refrain from printing session handouts and instead make them available for download on our conference web site. This effort improves the quality, availability and timeliness of handouts and resources and enables participants to print the handouts that are right for them either at home, the office or in the Cyber Cafe during the conference. Recycling ~ Glass & Porcelain for Beverages Bottled water and paper cups will not be used during the conference. Instead, glass and porcelain cups will be available during coffee and snack breaks. ~ Marketing Our online registration brochure viewer enabled us to print fewer brochures and use a tree in our conference theme instead of using trees to print brochures. Postcards were printed on FSC mixed sources (recycled wood and fiber and wellmanaged forests). Re~ycling bins for paper, plastic and glass are loca e throughout the conference for your use. \ Linen & Towel Reuse Program If you are staying at the Amway Grand, we encourage you to use their linen and towel reuse program in your guest room, saving water and energy. �Mannr Tham.k~ ~o our Spon~or~9 Y ounda~iom Suppofier~ { Exinilitior General Information ........................... 5 YIVE STAR Resource Central ............. . ............... 5 Frey Foundation W.K.

A grant to "Life of Lake Superior", with experiential educational programs for youth and their parents to learn hands-on about where they live. This comprehensive learning experience includes arts, culture, economy, geography, history, natural resources and science. $3500 was granted to the Wings of Hope Hospice and Palliative Care organization in Allegan County for the Seabiscuit program that was created and designed for junior high and middle school students who are having adjustment problems related to unresolved grief. Traditional grief programs didn't reach those young people so they created a program matched to their learning styles. Professional artists work with the kids on writing projects, creating music on drums and using "junk" to make sculptures. Medicare doesn't pay for these classes but they are so successful that additional schools are requesting them. Improved attendance, better grades, and fewer behavioral issues are direct outcomes of this program. The most significant grant was the 2nd year of a 3-year, $75,000 grant to the Neutral Zone (Ann Arbor's Teen Center) for new programming at their new location. This grant was part of a larger grant (total of $150,000 over three years) made in collaboration with AAACF's Distribution Committee. This will allow NZ to focus on new program offerings to teens in the community as well as provide time for NZ to develop a strategy for long-term program sustainability. New members were very supportive of this grant even though they were not on YC when the 3 year commitment was made. Michigan Youth In Government. Through this program, the students learn the democratic process - the responsibilities of leadership, honesty, and community involvement. In Lansing, they must attend all sessions and work for bill passage or be an attorney in a mock trial. The club is led by students at the local, district, and state levels. They write bills, prepare a trial case, debate, and take on leadership roles such as committee chairs, representatives, senators, and lawyers. They also hold fundraisers to help pay for their state conference in Lansing. The experienced students mentor the new members. This year one of the youth (a senior) ran for Governor and was elected. This was truly a great example to the other youth in the community. Hastings High School SADD - The purpose of the grant was to sponsor & host a community wide Teens Against Tobacco Use training. Michigan Youth Challenge Academy: This grant paid for increased counseling services to youth that are most at risk. The grant was written by youth that had the benefit of counseling and those that still desired to get it. These young people are choosing to turn there lives around often with little or no support systems. The YAC was impressed with the extreme effort put forth and wished to reward it. �YAC 2008 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Bay Area Community Foundation Bedford Community Foundation Berrien Community Foundation Branch County Community Foundation Cadillac Area Community Foundation Capital Region Community Foundation YAC 2008 Annual Survey Report to the Field Grants United Way of Bay County requested funding for the American Dream Initiative to support a holistic program that assists parents and caregivers of elementary school children to become strong, stable, and healthy. All funding from the Youth Advisory Committee will be used to provide direct services to families. Services and activities for these families include: - Providing holistic case management services to assist parents and caregivers that will include assessment, advocacy, goal setting, evaluation, and one-on-one instruction. - Teaching Budgeting/Financial Management, Homemaking, and Parenting Skills via individual and group sessions. - Promoting education and assisting caregivers to select and enroll in college/vocational training or obtain a high school diploma to further their employment opportunities. - Providing financial incentives and supports to assist with gas, car repair, childcare, class enrollment, GED testing, and other barriers that exist for these families. - Assisting caregivers to efficiently access other needed services and resources. Boy Scout Troop 777 awarded $2,000 for their shed project. READY-Martial Arts Program: Funding provided to help reclaim some of the youth that have been lost to gang violence, school truancy, and general apathy within their environments through an established disciplined martial arts program. The Colon Community Park Project will ultimately have the greatest impact on the youth in our community both during the construction phase and once the project is completed. The park was originally designed as a community center, and the YAC had granted money to assist in the construction of the building, but after evaluation of the plan and project, the community center organizers determined a park to be a more viable option. Following this decision, earlier this year, YAC reevaluated the project and granted approximately $7,000 to assist in the creation of a park. The new park will be conveniently located in downtown Colon and will include basketball courts, picnic areas, a pavilion, tennis courts, walking trails, a skate park and an amphitheater. The YAC members also plan to volunteer their time to help physically build this park, and upon completion, the entire community will be able to enjoy the Colon Community Park. The Cadillac & Kellogg for Youth Committee showed their support for the proposed Cadillac Area YMCA through grant awards of $30,000 during this time period for the building fund of the Y. The survey carried out by the Youth Committee in 2006 showed a need in our community for recreation and specifically more programming for local teens. The new YMCA will provide those opportunities and many more for the entire community. We granted $2,500 to the Help A Willing Kid Foundation (H.A.W.K) to help cover the cost of medical (including insurance) and registration fees to the USA Amateur Sports Association for underprivileged children. �YAC 2008 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Charlevoix County Community Foundation Chippewa County Community Foundation Clare County Community Foundation Clio Area Community Fund Community Foundation for Delta County Community Foundation for Mason County Community Foundation for Muskegon County Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan YAC 2008 Annual Survey Report to the Field Grants One grant that has a large impact in our community provides weekly playgroups for families with children between the ages of birth and 48 months. Playgroups provide parents/caregivers with child development education, age appropriate toys and activities for different age and skill levels, parenting techniques and information on, and referral to, available community resources. Playgroups also provide participants the opportunity to develop a support system of other parents/caregivers with young children in their community. Last year, over 135 families attended playgroups in Charlevoix County. Many of these families are new to the area, without the support of their family and friends, increasing the sense of isolation in a rural area. Playgroups provide an invaluable service at a minimal cost. There are no eligibility requirements for playgroup participation, creating a diverse mix of families from all socio-economic backgrounds. Soo Theatre Grants - over 200 youth have been served by these grants. One of the results of the Search Institute Survey - 40 assets - showed the lack of Fine Arts opportunities for youth. These grants allowed students to participate in several summer camps and dance lessons. The Clare YAC granted money to the Harrison Summer Reading Program. This program is a great way to impact youth in the summer months. The library does a great job of finding fun and exciting things for kids to learn about in the summer. I think this grant made a great impact. For the 2007-2008 year the grant with the most impact in the Clio area would be the YWCA Chill Program grant that helped to support the cost of incentives and supplies for an anger management/ violence prevention program for Clio High School Students. The grant to the Lutheran Social Services of Wisconsin and Upper Michigan for the Voices for Youth Transitional Living Program. This program provides temporary housing for youth age 17-21 that are homeless. The program helps to find them jobs, teaches them how to live on their own, and helps them finish their high school education if necessary. It has a great impact on those youth and the community because it provides them a safe place to stay while giving them the necessary skills to be productive members of the community. Gave $6,000 to the City of Ludington to finish a youth skate park. The YAC selected Teen Pregnancy as a major focus area for the 2008 grant year and as part of that, they heard from a number of agencies that impact teenage pregnancy in Muskegon County. One agency, Catholic Charities West Michigan, received a $9,605 grant from the YAC to help support their teen parent program which provides ongoing support for teenage parents. One of the most impressive things about this program is that it is open to both male and female teenage parents. The program is free of charge and helps teen parents manage duties such as childcare, schooling, infant supplies, etc. The YAC especially liked this grant because of the broad range of students that are served in Muskegon County and the idea of both female and male parents being helped. The YAC members recommended a grant of $2,300 to a Children's Mural Art Project for Cancer Survivors. This project is expected to involve 60 children in the production of a permanent "mural of hope" to express the community's on-going care for residents of all ages who have been touched by cancer. The children in our region will produce a mural to be permanently installed in the outdoor garden area at the Alpena Cancer Center. This artwork will be reproduced on a mobile banner for use throughout the region. �YAC 2008 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants Community Foundation for Oceana County A local camp, Camp Miniwanca (American Youth Foundation), not historically known for interacting with local youth, decided to create a Youth Leadership Institute. They invited high school youth from one of the county's school districts (Shelby High School) to come to the camp one day / month for the entire school year. The youth were engaged in leadership activities and at the conclusion of the year, led the district's 4th grade students in a day-long leadership program at the camp. Many students were impacted by this program and the camp is now expanding the program to 2 more school districts. The Oceana YAC granted twice to this program. A $15,000 grant was awarded in September ‘07 to the city of Wayne to support the construction of a fully accessible playscape. This amount was supplemented by additional funds from the Access to Recreation Initiative, resulting in a grant award totaling $40,000. The project is unique in that it is positioned to serve both as a neighborhood park as well as the playground for a school located in that neighborhood. The school, which serves children with special needs from the entire district, did not have playground equipment at the school site to accommodate all of the children. The youth were involved in the concept and design process from the very beginning, culminating in a community build to construct the playground itself. The grant award had a significant impact on the youth it serves, the neighborhood at large, and city’s policies in regard to playground construction. The project also allowed CFSEM to expose YAC participants to a broader set of foundation activities by introducing them to the Access to Recreation Initiative. The grant that probably had the most impact on the community would be the Help Stuff A Backpack Campaign that provided school supplies for 269 needy families and also supported the Newspaper in Education program for area elementary schools. Whiteford Agricultural Schools - $1250 Challenge Day grant Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan Community Foundation of Greater Flint Community Foundation of Monroe County Community Foundation of St. Clair County Constantine Area Community Foundation Coopersville Area YAC YAC 2008 Annual Survey Report to the Field The YAC gave a $25,000 grant to St. Clair County RESA to help fund a full time higher education counselor. The counselor will help students from all St. Clair County High Schools prepare for college- ACT/SAT testing, stress management, time management, etc. We have not seen the impact yet, but I do believe this will have the largest impact on our youth as public schools are struggling with budgets and staffing. It seems counselors have been overwhelmed with day to day activities and do not have enough time and resources to properly assist the students in preparing to go to college. Grant to Constantine Middle School to bring in the assembly "Behind the Faces" for students in grades 6-11, and for the community in the evening. This was a wonderful production that sent the kids some very strong messages. The program was appreciated by all who attended and received great reviews. The major topics addressed were bullying and substance abuse. The Coopersville Area Reading Bus. The program started this year and a used school bus was outfitted for library materials. It goes out to the outlying areas and brings reading materials to youth that are not able to get to the community library. It has been received well by all and its user numbers continue to grow. �YAC 2008 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Crystal Falls Area Community Foundation Dickinson Area Community Foundation Fenton Community Fund Four County Community Foundation Fremont Area Community Foundation Grand Blanc Community Fund Grand Haven Area Community Foundation Grand Rapids Community Foundation Grand Traverse Regional Community Foundation Gratiot County Community Foundation YAC 2008 Annual Survey Report to the Field Grants The grant that has had the most impact on the Crystal Falls Community this past grant cycle was the money given to the City of Crystal Falls to help build a soccer field/youth football field at the Runkle Lake Park complex. For seven years, the youth of Crystal Falls have been a part of the SAY Soccer Association. The Crystal Falls area has approximately 140 children that participate in soccer yet the community did not have a field to play on until now. Granting funds to the Dickinson County Water Ski Club for jump pad resurfacing. Many area youth participate in the Ski-ters program which attracts visitors to the area throughout the summer months. There were actually three grants that combined impacted a significant number of youth in the South Lakes Area. The grants were to support Project Graduation at three separate high schools in the area. Over 300 youth were potentially impacted. SERVE (Students Enriching Romeo through Volunteer Experience) Program student lead events. We support special events planned with Senior Citizens through out the year which the SERVE students plan and conduct. Approximately 450 students and senior citizens participate in events through the year. Examples of events include: a senior prom which has featured the high school jazz band and a DJ and they teach each other dance steps from their generations; a Christmas Dinner demonstrating music, dancing and drama performed by the students & the students serve the seniors their meal; theme and game luncheons are also held. The interaction of the youth and seniors is a positive experience for all. The Fremont YAC supported a grant of $12,500 from the Youth Endowment Fund of the Fremont Area Community Foundation toward the support of "The Refuge" bike park and hiking trails. The youth were excited about having a multi-use park in the area. YAC members were particularly interested in the uniqueness of this type of park to the area, with the possibility of attracting people from outside the area as well. Because the YAC was in need of rebuilding, there were no grants made during this period. The new members that were recruited during this time period were initially invited to participate on the YAC of the lead Foundation - county-wide YAC of Greater Flint. They will start as the active Grand Blanc group and help to recruit and train new members in September 2008. In 2007, 92 Tri-Cities youth were reported as homeless, 70 of whom were between the ages of 16 and 19. A grant from the Youth Fund is supporting the efforts of the Youth Homelessness Task Force in raising community awareness and engaging local service providers to create a service plan designed for these vulnerable youth. The YGC supported a youth program at New Hope Church that partnered youth with residents of a senior living facility in the neighborhood. Together, the youth and seniors made picnic tables for the senior center to provide an area for visiting and enjoying the outdoors. Host Homes for Homeless Youth, through Catholic Human Services, was a program that received support from each of the five counties in our Youth Grantmaker program. A group of middle school art students received a grant to fund painting windows in downtown businesses for the annual Highland Festival. The scenes of Scottish hillsides and pipers connected businesses, community and tourists together for the event. �YAC 2008 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Hillsdale County Community Foundation Homer Area Community Foundation Huron County Community Foundation Ionia County Community Foundation Iosco County Community Foundation Ishpeming YAC Jackson Community Foundation YAC 2008 Annual Survey Report to the Field Grants $4,000 proactive grant based on a desire and a need to beautify local communities within Hillsdale County. The YOUTH pondered various projects we could fund that would make a significant impact throughout the entire county. Modeling our idea after a program currently in existence in the city of Detroit, called “Summer in the City Detroit”, the YOUTH opted to support our local communities by providing small, proactive mini-grants to encourage beautification projects. One of our members learned about the Detroit-based community service organization last summer at the Youth Grantmakers Summer Leadership Conference, and brought the idea back to the other members, who were very excited about the concept. This was truly a county-wide initiative, with a huge geographic area able to directly benefit. $500 per area will greatly help out some of our communities, and it has enabled us to create a relationship with our local government officials, who we don’t normally interact with in our regular grant application processes. To the Homer Public Library for a summer reading program to keep the fun of reading going all summer long with special presentations. The Youth Advisory Committee committed $2,000 as a partial down payment on a homeless youth home. Kenny's Inc, a local non-profit is seeking to purchase a home in the heart of Huron County and help troubled teens get back on track and graduate from high school. The YAC are active participants in the Huron County Homeless Coalition and this project can have a large impact on homeless teens. Providing support for a year-end "prom" for special education/special needs high school students. YAC awarded a grant to fund guest speakers (Dr. Michael Fowlin, Eric Hipple, Ben Glenn, and others) to perform before a middle and high school audience. I attended the presentation as a site visit. The messages were serious, yet incredibly thoughtprovoking and inspiring. After each presentation, the entire student body gave both Dr. Fowlin and Ben Glenn a standing ovation – without suggestion from any adults. I've never seen so many teenagers fixated and enthralled by someone! This grant seemed to really open the eyes of many students and the reviews that came back were amazing. The entire day focused on most of the important issues YAC has identified through its needs assessment. We granted funding to a local agency to assist children with disabilities to learn to ride a bicycle without training wheels. During the holidays, our YAC offered a challenge to the 17 school districts in Jackson County. Any district that held a food drive could designate a food pantry or organization to receive a $1,000 donation from the YAC. All 17 districts participated, so besides thousands of food items collected, $17,000 was distributed to organizations. This challenge not only validated the charitable efforts of youth in Jackson County, but also promoted awareness of the YAC. �YAC 2008 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Kalamazoo Community Foundation Keweenaw Community Foundation Lapeer County Community Foundation Leelanau Township Community Foundation Lenawee Community Foundation Les Cheneaux Community Foundation M&M Area Community Foundation YAC 2008 Annual Survey Report to the Field Grants The grant the group decided to nominate as a MCFYP Great Grant went to Reach and Teach Alternative High School for an afterschool remodeling project. Although those attending this school have been expelled from their home school, alternative teaching styles have proven to be successful for a high percentage of Reach and Teach students. The school recently moved into a new facility with large open spaces that needed to be turned into smaller classrooms. Our grant for $4,497.00 is for tools and materials to build walls for the classrooms to be used by volunteer retired construction workers and students in creating these spaces. The students are learning a valuable trade; the retired carpenters enjoy mentoring the students. They expect the students will take better care of their classrooms, showing pride in the work they did in creating spaces. This is a direct impact on a small group of youth who attend the school, however by giving youth who are more at risk to negative behaviors a positive experience and skill, the entire community benefits! Grant given to the Tamarack City Park Committee to purchase playground equipment for a new park in Tamarack City. Going Green Maple Grove Elementary Student Council Recycling Program: This is a pilot program for recycling in one of the elementary schools in our largest school district as a partnership with the "Green School" designation from the State of Michigan. Interest has already been generated at one of the high schools to follow this pattern. With 11 school buildings in the district, this can have a significant impact on the environment and hopefully carry over to a county-wide program which does not currently exist in Lapeer County. This was also one of the summary points from the education section of our Envisioning Lapeer County's Future done in 2007 in which our YAC President participated. Funded the purchase of the video series "The Color of Fear" which teaches cultural sensitivity. The LYC funded a 12 step program for teens. Originally the agency received funding for one group, but it quickly became apparent that there was need for two groups: one for males and another for females. The LYC funded the program for two 12 step support groups for teens battling substance abuse issues. The adult programs are not appropriate or safe places for teens to go and substance abuse has been identified as a critical issue in our community. A $1,000 grant to start an elementary branch of the YAC that teaches philanthropy to elementary students. The youth members mentor the younger students about philanthropy and grantmaking. It serves as a way to introduce what YAC is for future recruiting efforts as well. The YAC made a $2,500 grant to the Healthy Youth Coalition to fund a media campaign. The goals were: - Educate youth and adults in our community on the dangers of alcohol, tobacco, drugs, and violence through youth developed radio spots, billboards and print campaigns. - Begin to change community norms and attitudes about alcohol use and violence. - Build our youth's self confidence, self respect, self reliance, resistance skills and responsibility through positive peer and adult influences. - Provide youth with creative activities and a community that values youth. - Provide leadership opportunities to all high school youth from the twin counties we serve. - Utilize youth as a resource by having them develop and record radio spots, research and design billboards and write newspaper articles. �YAC 2008 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Mackinac Island Community Foundation Manistee County Community Foundation Marquette Community Foundation Marshall Community Foundation Mecosta County Community Foundation Michigan Gateway Community Foundation Midland Area Community Foundation Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation YAC 2008 Annual Survey Report to the Field Grants A Program to bring a deaf rapper to the school. This young man awed the students with his story of overcoming the adversity of his handicap. Showing them how hard work and perseverance can pay off, as in his national recording contract. The Very Special Arts grant in the amount of $1,200 had great impact. It involved teaching special education students how to use various art mediums to create a beautiful work of art that enhanced the community. It also increased the public’s awareness of the talents of people with disabilities. They worked with multiple schools and have learned new techniques that they will continue to teach and apply. The YAC granted funding of $10,000.00 to an organization which will build a permanent skate park in the City of Marquette. I believe the YAC grant impacting our community the most was the $17,424 grant to fund "After School Arts Workshop" programs at the Marshall District Library. The YACkers were committed to offering very positive after-school programming to area youth. A grant to District Health Department #10 for the "Girls On The Run Program". This program provides an opportunity for low income girls to participate in this program to improve their bodily condition and enhance their self esteem. Big Brothers/Big Sisters: The grant was to create 20 mentorships dedicated to south Berrien County and to establish 2 partnerships with area firms to encourage employees to serve as mentors to children. "Literacy Magazine": Midland's Creative Spirit Arts Center was awarded $700 to assist with the costs associated with the publication of "Beat the Drum!” a new, student-led literary magazine. This project was initiated by a local 9th grade student who was interning at the Creative Spirit Arts Center. In addition to publishing creative writing and pen-and-ink drawings from the youth in Midland County, the magazine also provided leadership experience for the youth who sat on the editorial board, the contributors, and the youth who edited and distributed the publication. An excerpt from the grant application describes why publishing creative works by youth is so important: "For some young people, these times of transition can be puzzling, stressful, and even painful, as social systems and institutions deliver surprising and unfamiliar challenges. For students with a literary or artistic temperament, writing, drawing, and painting help to communicate their experiences both to themselves and to others. Sharing with peers helps them muster the resilience needed to negotiate what lies ahead." The YAC awarded 4 grants to the Health Department. Collectively, they supported disease prevention & several health and safety issues affecting children & their families. One project called the "Photovoice Project" has not been completed but may have an important impact. Student volunteers from local high schools will be recruited for the project with 3 goals: Photovoice gives young people 1) The opportunity to record and reflect (with photos they take and narratives they write) their community strengths and problems. 2) Promotes discussion about important issues through group discussion and the photographs. 3) Gets the attention of policymakers to encourage needed change. The project empowers youth to have their needs noted and discussed. Individual pictures accompanied by narratives are powerful messages; however, the collection and presentation of hundreds of youth pictures and related narratives all in one place (community presentation) can have a significant effect on community opinions and goals for youth. �YAC 2008 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Negaunee Community Fund North Central Michigan Community Foundation Norway Area Community Foundation Osceola County Community Foundation Otsego County Community Foundation Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation Roscommon County Community Foundation YAC 2008 Annual Survey Report to the Field Grants To the Negaunee High School for a Peer Coach Community Experience, which teaches youth to be community leaders Each YAC (Crawford, Ogemaw, and Oscoda County) awarded a grant to River House Shelter (for protecting women and children against domestic violence) to purchase toys, a basketball court, and security cameras. This facility serves a large geographical area and YAC members felt it was truly important for children living at the shelter to be able to have healthy activities that would help them be physically active, provide learning opportunities, and feel safe during their time there. Child abuse is among the issues identified as needing funding by NCMCF's last needs assessment. One of our most important uses of our grant money was the "Mock Accident" presentation. It was a very dramatic way to teach the youth of our community the consequences of their choices when choosing to drink and drive. This presentation involved the whole community. Mini-grants for educators: This grant benefits youth in every section of Osceola County by working with the schools. It also covers all age groups by involving programs from K-12 grade levels. All schools in Michigan are faced with serious budget problems. The Mini-grants for Educators program helps with equipment and materials that the schools budgets are not capable of funding. Friendship Shelter Youth mentoring: Furniture, computers and supplies, plus pay for the mentoring for children lodged at the Friendship Shelter. There was no opportunity for them to keep up. The grant to the local YMCA for equipment and financial scholarships for their summer day camp has had a tremendous impact. It may not be a visible impact, but this kind of support for working families or single parents in the summer time is invaluable. Our YAC has been providing this annual support since inception of the Y summer camp about four years ago. Summer time is a very difficult time for working parents or single parents with little kids. School may be out for the kids, but mom and/or dad still need to work full-time jobs to make ends meet. Many summer activity options in our community are financially out of reach for many families/parents. The Y day camp is affordable and they are able to provide financial assistance to those moms and/or dads (or grandparents!) who need it. Our YAC recommended funding for the Houghton Lake Little League to pay for the siding, electrical and plumbing for the new concession stand at our new Sports Complex. This is part of a "Special Project Fund" at the RCCF that was started in memory of a local Houghton Lake student who was killed by a drunk driver while riding his bike. He was only 10 years old. The Sports Complex is being funded by donations to the Ryan McDonald Memorial Fund and most of the work is being donated by local contractors in Ryan's memory. The Sports Complex will allow the Houghton Lake Little League to host regional tournaments which will not only allow our local youths to play, but will also allow teams from many other areas to get to use our complex. It will also help our local economy, which relies almost solely on tourism. The concession stand was part of Phase I of the project so that they will have some income available to help toward the rest of the project. �YAC 2008 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Saginaw Community Foundation Sanilac County Community Foundation Schoolcraft County Community Foundation Shiawassee Community Foundation South Haven Community Foundation Southeast Ottawa Community Foundation Sparta Community Foundation St. Ignace Area Community Foundation Straits Area Community Foundation Sturgis Area Community Foundation YAC 2008 Annual Survey Report to the Field Grants I think the Youth Farm Stand Project had the most impact. FORCE made a grant to a neighborhood coalition that built a community garden. It was planted and grown by youth. After the vegetables were ready to pick, students sold them at the Farmer's Market. They had a prime location there where they got to share the story of their success, which came to them at a huge cost. Soon after the garden was planted, it was vandalized. The story in the newspaper talked about how the kids were upset, but that they weren't going to stay down. With several community members stepping up with new donations, the youth restored their garden and saw great results! M.O.V.E. Program which was awarded to the Sanilac County ISD to purchase equipment to assist severely handicapped students to become more independently mobile. Although this program assists a small number of young people, the impact it has had on those lives has been tremendous. Central Park Grant - $2,000.00 grant which was matched $6,000.00. Development of Central Park in Manistique that will serve all of Schoolcraft County. Youth will finally have facilities to swim, fish, play tennis, basketball, shoot archery, etc. The summer pantry grants for our American Red Cross helped in addressing the growing demand for food for those in need during the summer (not just during the holidays). Youth and Company, a summer park program. To provide scholarships to participate in the Miles for Mentoring 5K and a Mentoring Weekend. These events recruited new mentors for unmatched youth and provided activities for mentoring matches in Southeast Ottawa. To target 1st through 3rd grade free or reduced lunch students who are significantly below grade level in reading, writing, and spelling but do not qualify for special education services and who attend a Sparta Public Schools. A grant to the city St. Ignace for new tennis courts. The courts were in major disrepair and are widely used by everyone in the community. YAC awarded a mini-grant to the special education program at Wolverine Community Schools called "Bringing the Classics to Life". The grant provided funding for classic books that were adapted in a way that would make them easier to read and comprehend for special education students. To date, this was the first grant YAC had awarded to this population of youth. Grant to Sturgis Middle School for a program called "Be the Change: Challenge Day"-all 7th graders in our community attended this 2 day program which addressed issues such as bullying; racial issues; violence; substance abuse etc. Parent and adult volunteers from the community also participated and the program was extraordinarily well received by everyone involved. It includes follow up via the group's website to keep the students focused on the changes discovered through the program. �YAC 2008 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Community Foundation Grants The Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area Our YAC identified the Lakeshore Honors Basketball League as their "Great Grant" for the CMF YAC Conference and I also think that this grant has had, and will continue to have, a tremendous impact on youth in our area. The Lakeshore Honors Basketball League offers at-risk youth the opportunity to participate in a team sport while removing many of the barriers that often stand in the way of their participating in team sports through the school system. Being a member of one of the League's teams provides young people with a peer support group that will challenge them to do their best on and off the court, connects them with the positive influence of coaches who care about them and serve as role models, and helps them to develop a healthy sense of identity and self-worth. The Lakeshore Honors Basketball League seeks to ensure that every youth has access to the team sports experience and the benefits that can develop out of that experience. A project entitled "Oceans Alive!" was granted to Kingston Elementary School. The grant totaling $2,450.00 helped to bring a salt water ocean into the elementary school which had a positive learning impact on 360 children in the building. A 100 gallon salt water fish tank was purchased and filled with angelfish, scallops and all kinds of unique and amazing ocean fish. Students no longer have to wonder what an ocean looks like; they can see it in the 4th grade classroom of Mr. Lane Walker. This joint effort with the community foundation YAC included a local bank, parent teacher organization and local business. These organizations made this special project come to life. A grant was made to Planned Parenthood to impact the rate of teen pregnancy.

Advancing giving. �Working together to help all children succeed. One of our toughest challenges today is creating a world where all children can thrive. Too many kids in Detroit and beyond are growing up without access to quality education, health care and other supports that help them grow and develop into contributing members of society. Cereal industry pioneer WK. Kellogg believed that ideas are the fuel of innovation. As stewards of this legacy, we are always searching for solutions that work on behalf of children, families and communities. We welcome creative thoughts from members of Independent Sector and look forward to continuing conversations that emerge from this conference. ra W.K. KELLOGG FOUNDATION Our Children. Our Mission. Our Future. www.wkkf.org �Dear Colleagues, Welcome to Detroit and the 2009 Independent Sector and Council of Michigan Foundations Annual Conference! We are delighted by our organizations' partnership in bringing the charitable and philanthropic community together for what promises to be three days of dynamic and thought-provoking discussions. In light of the challenges that we have all faced over the past 18 months or so, we have been working together closely and pooling our resources in an effort to provide a community forum where you have access to the best ideas and experiences available in our sector. We hope this gathering also offers you an opportunity to collaborate in fresh new ways, learn " best practices," and form mutually beneficial partnerships that reinvigo rate your organization and its ability to fulfill its mission. This year's conference features insightful, gifted speakers. It also promises to connect members of our community from around the country in a deeper way with the great work being done here in Michigan .We believe you will come away inspired by the talent and expertise of your colleagues and enriched by a renewed commitment to our shared vision of creating a more just and compassionate world.

(Location: Nicolet Room) Nonprofit and foundation leaders, whether seasoned or new to their positions, often find themselves in challenging situations with high stakes and no easy answers.This advanced practice workshop will help you tune up to: (I) Recognize soft challenges, situations that have no technical solutions and leave even experienced practitioners feeling confused or ineffective; (2) Draw on a new framework for effective personal strategy-using the linked concepts of role, self, and system; and (3) Think and work like a natural by using a framework that makes the tacit strategies of high ly effective leaders explicit and accessible. How do we get here? Nonprofits have activated new and existing networks to ensure that staff, board members, volunteers, and donors represent the rich diversity of our country and world. Expanded leadership pipelines have been key to this new culture of inclusion. In addition, organizations are working together in innovative ways and benefitting from breaking down barriers such as geography and mission-area silos. For example, U.S. nonprofits are better integrated with the international N GO community and coordination has increased between faith-based and secular groups. By fundamentally rebuilding the way we recruit individuals and connect organizations, the nonprofit community has powerfully increased our individual and collective impact, and become a model for the nation as a whole.

Leveraging or brokering funds to meet community needs - We leveraged our funding with State matching dollars at a 1 to 1.33 match to assist the Family Health Center with their expansion in meeting our community needs. We also have worked throughout the year leveraging our dollars with other funders in our community such as the United Way in meeting community needs in this very demanding economy.

Convener for community discussions - The Natural Resources Collaboration Forum. The community natural resource collaboration forum of April 16, 2009 was initiated and co-sponsored by the Charlevoix County Community Foundation and the Petoskey Harbor-Springs Area Community Foundation in order to further community dialogue on how best to move forward together to address current and future natural resource protection issues. A broad range of community non-profit stakeholders was invited to the forum--with 22 attendees from 15 organizations. The community conversation among the attendees was congenial, focused and motivated by the calling that preserving our rich natural resource base is vital to the quality of life we enjoy as residents of northern Michigan. The conclusions of the conversation were that, especially in these difficult economic times the many efforts of a diverse population of knowledgeable and committed staff and volunteers continue to drive the mission of protecting our natural places upon which our local tourism economy is based. In addition, it was concluded that local nonprofit collaboration to this end was strong, and could be made even stronger yet. A list of possible tools for advancing increased collaboration was created at the forum’s end. Spotting or anticipating problems and acting to prevent them - The Foundation has been working with local school districts and colleges to raise the bar on education for many years. Starting in the early 90s, the Foundation adopted a 5th grade classroom of an inner city school and promised payment of college tuition and fees upon graduation. That program has evolved into other programs over the years and most recently has put the foundation in discussions with community partners about the Graduation Generation and the College Access Network. Convener for community discussions - CFNEM has convened meetings to discuss how the organizations of northeast Michigan may be able to work together to meet the needs of children at risk. We hope to convene meetings all over northeast Michigan and then submit an application for funding from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation to help meet the identified needs.

CFGF, working in partnership with our local land bank and workforce development agencies, has provided funding for training and program coordination that has led to the development of a two-year initiative in which a minimum of 70 re-entering prisoners will be employed to renovate local properties held by our land bank. This $40,000 grant will leverage more than $3 million over the course of two years. Serving as a neutral partner, bringing diverse groups together to solve common problems - Bringing together Realtors, MCOP and Network on Homelessness to form a newly created Homelessness fund to better impact the community and serve those that fall through the cracks. Convener for community discussions - The Community Foundation of St. Clair County was a convener for our community on a number of vital issues, including: 1. Accessibility/universal design 2. Education (includes a host of topics such as "promise programs", student housing and changing the "college-going" culture) 3. Downtown development 4. Tourism 5. Small business support 6. Public art 7. Need for collaboration between for profit and non profit corporations/organizations/businesses Providing technical assistance to nonprofits - The foundation's FIMS Hub provides administrative support to nine affiliate foundations and six independent community foundations throughout Michigan and Wisconsin. This service has saved these entities thousands of dollars in operational costs, while receiving the benefit of using FIMS for their financial, donor, gift and grant management. It also allows their limited staff more time to further the work of their foundation and increase their endowments. Responding to community emergencies - Our grantmaking priorities have been to provide basic and emergency needs funding to non-profits in our area. The local economic climate has resulted in many new families seeking assistance. Convener for community discussions - In our role as a neutral convener, we restarted an effort to get 2-1-1 in Newaygo County and bring together three other counties so we could move forward as a region. Responding to community emergencies - The Grand Haven Area Community Foundation (GHACF) has developed a special short-term “Families in Crisis” Grant Program to assist nonprofit agencies in their efforts to build their organization’s capacity and effectiveness to better meet the basic needs of Northern Ottawa County residents. To date over $100,000 has been granted from the Families in Crisis initiative. In addition, GHACF leadership has convened regular meetings of the "safety net" organizations in an effort to identify critical needs, gaps, and coordinate response to families in the Tri-Cities.

This program is called the Jackson Legacy Program which is helping students “know why to go and get ready to go”; supports residents in “knowing how to go” through provision of college access supports, and giving prospective students “the means to go” through scholarships. Scholarships are awarded to qualifying students planning to attend Baker College of Jackson, Jackson Community College, or Spring Arbor University. The Jackson Community Foundation awarded $738,083 in Legacy Scholarships and leveraged approximately an additional $647,000 in aid for students. The students were required to perform community service as a requirement of the award, in the first year over 21,000 hours were logged which value over $500,000 in donated time. Providing technical assistance to nonprofits - The Kalamazoo Community Foundation, in partnership with a private foundation and other supporters, established a Management Support Organization (MSO) to expand the capacities of nonprofit organizations and the nonprofit sector throughout Kalamazoo county. The MSO uses a variety of methods to assist nonprofits to increase their understanding of the sector, legal and other requirements, standards of operation, effective and best practices, and otherwise increase the efficiency and effectiveness of human service organizations. The entity is hosted by the Kalamazoo Public Library and involves other local leadership and funding partners in setting direction and providing support.

Spotting or anticipating problems and acting to prevent them - Our YAC members do a need assessment of our community annually. After defining where problems are in the community, they provide either grants or volunteer assistance to various organizations. Developing community leaders - Established and implemented a youth trustee program for inclusion on board of trustees of the Foundation. Also re-vamped major committees of the Foundation to broaden our community base and expose additional community members to the work of the CF. Catalyst for needed change - The CF of the Holland/Zeeland Area launched the implementation phase of its Ready for School initiative in 2008. This effort to address early childhood education grew out of our 2007 Community Forum in which emerging strategic issues were identified by a diverse group of community organizations and individuals. Ready for School integrates civic, school, health, nonprofit, corporate and faith-based efforts to ensure that every child in the Holland/Zeeland area enters kindergarten prepared to succeed. Testing of the 2008 incoming Kindergarten class along with parent surveys has provided Ready for School with critical baseline data for identifying who is in greatest need of additional support, common barriers to quality care, and geographic areas where the greatest impact can be made. Ready for School is working to increase the number of local children who are prepared to learn when entering kindergarten by engaging and supporting parents and informal caregivers, enhancing the quality of existing early care and education programming, and addressing barriers to access by increasing availability/affordability of early care and education programming.

The main focus of this project is to give teens a place to go after school, where they can interact without being constantly quieted by the Library staff. Teens could use the computers to research materials for school, type papers and also to have fun with each other in a learning environment. Future goals would include using the computers for gaming tournaments, literacy initiatives, tutoring, GED practice, and computer classes. In order to accomplish this we will conduct the following activities: hire a supervisor to oversee teen use of the Activity Room, purchase the equipment needed, set up the equipment and evaluate the project. Convene a group of Allegan County food providers to improve effectiveness, efficiencies, networking and collaboration. Food Gatherers $92,000 To launch a smart, fast and sustainable plan to get more healthy food to extremely low income people in Washtenaw County. Community Action $15,971 Battle Creek Community Foundation Family Health Center of Battle Creek $150,000 This grant will provide critical funds to assist homeless individuals and families in Barry County to obtain safe housing and will prevent homelessness for low-income families facing eviction, foreclosure and/or utility shut off. With 23,000 uninsured in Calhoun County at any point in time, and an estimated 34,500 people being uninsured at some point throughout the year, even with the best efforts of the Emergency Departments, the Family Health Center (FHC) and Free Clinics to see them, there are an estimated 21,000 people who lack access to health care. In addition, there are 27,000 Medicaid beneficiaries in Calhoun County, and half of them are seen by the FHC. For dental, there is an estimated need of 11,750 urgent care visits per year. Current capacity (FHC, Dentists’ Partnership, free clinics, and senior millage) is 9,790, leaving an unmet need of 1,960 urgent care visits. In addition, there are an estimated 68,000 uninsured and Medicaid dental patients who need access to preventive services. There is a need to serve the uninsured and Medicaid population with additional primary care and dental capacity. The expansion of the Family Health Center will assist our community economically and with school readiness for children. There will be State Matching dollars of 1-1.33 to BCCF Funding and any other non-governmental funding.

The program is a multi-faceted program designed to provide arts opportunities for people with disabilities. It offers a forum for consumers of the agency's services to express themselves in a positive, nurturing, creative environment. The program has dual purpose of providing information to the community regarding issues faced by people with disabilities through visual exhibition or works. Work-related GED/Literacy program. Earning and Learning consists of educational modules, such as money management, parenting skills, and other life skills. Participants earn points for completing modules which they can exchange for baby clothes, cribs, and other items they may need to care for their families. This grant helped Beginnings purchase additional curriculum modules for the Earning & Learning Program and the purchase and distribution of professionally-made brochures, to further promote the program. Building construction for new YMCA. The Capital Region Community Foundation's first annual $75,000 "Impact Grant," requiring a one-to-one cash match and designed to address service gaps, was awarded to the Listening Ear Crisis Center in East Lansing. The project is to develop the Capital Area Sexual Assault Center (CASAC), a 24 hour, community based, comprehensive center where sexual assault victims will receive medical forensic examinations, counseling and advocacy services immediately after an assault. The clinic will be in a highly visible location on Michigan Avenue in Lansing. 21 �Michigan Community Foundations – Examples of the single grant distributed through the past fiscal year with the most impact on each community Charlevoix County Community Foundation Lake Charlevoix Association $5,385 Community Foundation for Muskegon County Community Foundation for Muskegon County/Downtown Sculpture Fund $200,000 Community Foundation for Northeast Michigan Park Family Foundation $2,838,470 Community Foundation of Greater Flint Genesee Chamber Foundation $40,000 Community Foundations Annual Survey 2009 Report to the Field Lake Charlevoix's shoreline is in danger of being overrun by an invasive grass, Phragmites australis, that is rapidly spreading both below and above the water line and driving out native species. The part of the plant that grows above the water line has the ability to reach upwards of 15 feet tall, thus obstructing views of the lake. The Lake Charlevoix Association is working on an ambitious program to eradicate phragmites around the entire lake. The work includes a multi-year plan for herbicide application and a program to educate riparian owners and other lake residents regarding their role in successful eradication of the plant. Government permits for herbicide application were obtained and will be coordinated on a lake-wide basis. Partners in this program are: Tip of the Mitt Watershed Council; the Charlevoix County Soil Conservation District; the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians; Charlevoix Township and other Lake Charlevoix Townships. Program components include: plant inventory; development of educational materials; making information available to property owners and the general public; conducting workshops for information and training volunteers; working with state and local governments on a common approach; and program evaluation. In 2005, the visioning process for Imagine Muskegon identified Muskegon's historic and cultural center as the corner of Third Street and Western Avenue. That corner is now the setting for sculptor Richard Hunt's "Muskegon, Together Rising". Inspired by spirit and history, vision and aspiration, this soaring stainless steel structure rises solidly from the earth and shore, gleaming in light and reaching with flames, arms and wings into the sky. This sculpture was installed in 2008 with support from the Community Foundation for Muskegon County, Alcoa Foundation, Charles E. and Patricia B. Johnson Fund, Robert D. and C. Corcoran Tuttle Family Fund and the Cool Cities Fund. We had taken ownership of our community's recreation center a couple of years ago to protect it from being sold and possibly losing this wonderful asset for community recreation. In our 2008 fiscal year we had the opportunity to transfer ownership of this recreation center to a newly created local family foundation whose main focus is recreation in the Alpena area. This transfer ensured that this beautiful facility will continue to be used for recreation for the community for a very long time. Definitely a win - win situation! The Genesee County Summer Youth Initiative is a community approach to training, nurturing, and getting youth ready for employment. Participants receive formal job training, and attend orientation sessions and job fairs to learn the basics of becoming a good employee. This grant is co-sponsored by a number of local funders and the program employs more than 400 youth during the summer months. 22 �Michigan Community Foundations – Examples of the single grant distributed through the past fiscal year with the most impact on each community Community Foundation of Monroe County Community Foundation of St. Clair County The Salvation Army $1,221 Funds to support a Winter Warming Shelter in extreme weather conditions. College Access Office $21,533 Community Foundation of the Upper Peninsula City of Gladstone $125,933 Four County Community Foundation Fremont Area Community Foundation Samaritan House $10,000 City of Fremont $525,000 This grant established the College Access Office at Port Huron High School. The College Access Office is a resource center that serves as the hub for students to achieve success beyond high school. The office is staffed by a part-time Coordinator who assists students and families with college preparation and admission, financial aid, career exploration and scholarship applications. From January - June, 2009 the College Access Coordinator met with nearly 250 students and parents. The results from this pilot program were very positive. The rate of Port Huron High (PHH) graduates who will attend a college or university has increased by 36% over the previous year (from 45% to 61.2% of graduates). Additionally, the rate of PHH graduates enrolling at St. Clair County Community College has dramatically increased, benefiting not only the students but our entire community. In addition to increasing the number of students attending college, there was also an increase in the amount of financial aid and scholarship money utilized. Specifically, there was a large increase in the number of students receiving dollars through the Michigan Tuition Incentive Program. This under-utilized pool of funds pays for the complete cost of an associate’s degree and a portion of a bachelor’s degree for qualifying families. During the 2009-2010 school year the College Access Office at PHH will expand the scope of services offered to continue to increase the rate of graduates who attend college. Given the success of the pilot, the Community Foundation of St. Clair County is working with funding partners to replicate this program throughout the county. In 2009-2010 we hope to establish a College Access Office in Algonac to provide similar services. Distribution from designated fund that enables many recreational and city improvements to be made. It also benefits the annual 4th of July celebrations, which are the best in the county. The improvements have helped the city to attract more tourists, which is vital to the well-being of the area businesses. The grant was for food for the food pantry which serves low income families with food and basic supplies like diapers and paper products. The demand for services is up in our area including many first time applicants. This grant provides funds for economic development projects related to job creation and retention. The majority of the funding provided leverage for the creation of an Agricultural Renaissance Zone in Fremont and an increased presence for Gerber Products/Nestle.

The Nonprofit Network further assists the nonprofit community through providing specialized management and governance services. Community Foundations Annual Survey 2009 Report to the Field This grant helped to expand housing counseling services (Pre-Purchase Counseling, Financial Literacy, Post Purchase Counseling and Foreclosure Prevention) for residents of Ottawa County. Grand Rapids Community Foundation provided funding and coordinated the effort to respond to escalating community need for essential services such as housing, food, utilities, and transportation by creating a temporary, flexible pool of funds supported by sixteen area funders. The Fund has been a resource for nonprofit organizations struggling to meet the needs of families in Kent County and avoided duplication of existing community initiatives, while encouraging collaboration and reform of local system infrastructure. The Fund also leveraged the collective resources of a variety of local funders and created new alliances. Grand Rapids Community Foundation provided staff support and the Essential Needs Task Force provided decision-making expertise. Youth from across the nation volunteered their time to improve the housing conditions of low income residents of the St. Louis community. 24 �Michigan Community Foundations – Examples of the single grant distributed through the past fiscal year with the most impact on each community Kalamazoo Community Foundation Hispanic American Council $50,000 Keweenaw Community Foundation Leelanau Township Community Foundation Lenawee Community Foundation M & M Area Community Foundation Mackinac Island Community Foundation Little Brothers-Friends of the Elderly $5,911 Northport Leelanau Township Utilities Authority $111,900 To install hook-up installation to new village waste-water treatment system YMCA $2,500 Menominee County Intermediate School District $2,500 Mackinac Island Medical Center $52,000 This grant enabled our YMCA to open the Broadstreet Learning Center for Infants and Toddlers by providing the furnishings needed - a washer & dryer, rocking chairs, and other equipment. Child care for infants & toddlers is an urgent need in our community. Imagination Library. The grant provided local matching funds to work with the Dolly Parton Foundation. The goal of the project is to provide books to children prior to entering school. The child receives one free book per month. Grant is a designated disbursement that provides needed funds to assist our Medical Center's continued operation Community Foundations Annual Survey 2009 Report to the Field The Hispanic American Council had been without an Executive Director since June 2007. The board worked hard to manage the organization and raise funds to hire a permanent executive and pay that person an executive salary. Each year that passed without a competent executive in place severely limited opportunities to provide the number and quality of programs and services the Hispanic community needed. Partially funding the executive director position for two years strengthened the organization and improved collaboration with funders and other service providers, state and national Hispanic organizations, political leaders and diverse Hispanic communities. The new executive is building the Council's capacity to generate funding through understanding community needs, strengths and creating a fund development system; determining and providing other agencies with information about the service needs of Hispanic communities and has made collaboration the primary method of providing services. The Council's role has become one of helping the community’s service providers and funders develop the cultural competencies required to effectively serve the Hispanic community and meet their needs--as opposed to minimally meeting the needs of the cooperating service provider to meet affirmative action goals. The new executive has improved the internal and external information and reporting systems, and is exerting quiet, competent, visionary leadership to the community as a whole.

We offered to underwrite the grant writing costs for a project that seeks in excess of $3 million from private and public foundations to outfit three grade levels in the schools with a laptop for every student. This is still ongoing, but progress to date is promising. The Arnold center has outgrown its existing building. The Arnold Center is in the need of 14,500 additional square feet. This addition will be a visual inspiration and example of how one building can provide multiple social benefits to the community. A small grant, but enough. Funding for the agency had been slashed. The "Bigs in School" mentoring program was out of funds. They were able to hang on until a media campaign could be organized for community support of the program. Our community came through! Otsego County has a high rate of single parent and dysfunctional families (mostly immigrants). The "Bigs in School" mentoring program is one of the strongest programs we have to help the youth who come from these segments of the population. The Health Department was the lead agency in collaboration with area medical providers to increase access to Medicaid and uninsured clients in Emmet County. The $10,000 Community Foundation grant leveraged an additional $24,482 for a total of $34,482 towards the cost of startup equipment for the clinic. A family foundation that we often collaborate with contributed and leveraged the same amount, so those donations plus the federal matches will amount to approximately $68,000. When the Clinic opened to the public in late July there were already appointments scheduled. "Stock the Shelves" project. With the high number of people who are receiving or have depleted unemployment benefits, there are more people utilizing the food pantry than ever before. The average monthly food output is $2400 and it requires stocking the shelves much more often. Covenant Health Care – The hospital wanted to build a new home away from home for out of town families of patients at the hospital. At the time of the proposal there was the Hospital Hospitality House which was not on the campus of the hospital and it was an older facility. The hospital wanted to provide these families with a more welcoming atmosphere right on the hospital campus. Since this grant has been awarded, the McNally house has served 2,928 people. SCF awarded 39 grants totaling $17,950 from our scholarship funds. At this time, most of our funds are for scholarships only. 26 �Michigan Community Foundations – Examples of the single grant distributed through the past fiscal year with the most impact on each community Sturgis Area Community Foundation Sturgis Public Schools $15,000 The Community Foundation of the Holland/Zeeland Area Grand Rapids Community College’s Midtown Campus $25,000 Tuscola County Community Foundation Tuscola County Fair Association $10,000 Community Foundations Annual Survey 2009 Report to the Field This was a start up grant for a comprehensive after school program for all area middle school age students.

The program serves over 6,000 boys and girls (the gender component of the organization’s name is irrelevant boys AND girls play sports, and both genders are represented on the board) and is the largest youth recreation program in the state of Michigan. The WPMC was approached by the YMCA regarding the rental of the multisports complex that is currently underutilized. The cost associated with this rental is substantially less than the operational expenses that would be incurred for the current facility that is not easily accessible for a large population of inner city youth. Funding this transition would expand access in the community and be an operational expense answer for two organizations. The BCCF YAC was the lead funding committee on this project, with their recommendation encouraging other BCCF review committees and funders to follow suit. BCCF encouraged collaboration between these two health and recreation programmers and assisted in brokering a partnership that provides synergistic programming, instead of competing opportunities. The result is increased opportunities for area youth to engage in healthy physical fitness activities. The Essexville Hampton schools was awarded funding in the amount of $3,200 for the project "Crossing Boundaries", which is an existing and successful program initiated in California. The goal of this program is to increase student acceptance of each other within the high school and the community. Other Bay County schools are interested in partnering to provide "Crossing Boundaries" to their students. Essexville has forwarded all needed information pertaining to this project to all area middle and high schools. This grant supported a Senior Health Fair for high school seniors. The event served over 250 senior students and provided presentations, displays, and information on many issues affecting students going out into the world of college, or to work.

The Substance Abuse Free Environment in Northern Michigan (SAFE in NM) Youth Advisory Group is made up of high school students from schools in Charlevoix County. The students spend time learning about substance abuse and its effects, advising on best strategies for reaching youth, and conducting their own activities to bring awareness to their peers. SAFE in NM youth worked on a number of awareness projects including: Project Sticker Shock, SAFE Homecoming and Prom initiatives, Alcohol in G-rated Movie Night, Life at its Best - Add Nothing - Media Campaign, Parents who Host Lose the Most, and other activities that involved sharing information with their peers, parents, and the community. Through all of these projects, SAFE in NM youth have made a big impact in their community. SAFE youth continue to come up with ideas for projects to encourage their peers to be drug and alcohol free. The youth also continue to reach out to the community with projects that promote awareness and education of youth substance abuse prevention. Many of these projects will continue to take place in the coming year.

The focus is on eliminating animal abuse, which can lead to child abuse and domestic violence. In addition to teaching respect for the animals, the program provides a basic safety course for elementary age children, teaching them how to avoid conflict with potentially dangerous cats and dogs. The YAC co-granted with our adult distribution committee to our area food pantries to provide better access to healthy foods and staple products. This grant was in direct response to our Foundation's goal of granting to greatest needs projects. This grant to the Junior Achievement of Southeastern Michigan was the first grant that the Youth Advisory Committee reviewed for the year and it served as a perfect introduction for the YAC members since the intent of the grant was for young people to consider the importance of charitable giving and the concept of philanthropy in their budgeting. JA teaches financial skills to young people through an interactive classroom curriculum, complemented by an all day “mock life” experience at the Financial Park wherein students are given an annual budget and have to make choices about selecting services that fit within their budget. This grant supported the development of a “Making a Difference” storefront where students were able to select and support causes that were important to them, and was complemented by Learning to Give curriculum that was incorporated into the JA classroom curriculum. The curriculum and the Financial Park reach thousands of children every year. The members gave a grant that would raise funds for fully stuffed backpacks to youths that were deemed below the poverty line in grades 1-5. This grant involved helping to create access for youth to local playgrounds & other community recreation locations with modifications to assist those in wheelchairs.

Funds were used to provide counseling services to at-risk families as well as homelessness awareness activities. The overall goal of this project is that young children in Ionia County will show an increased interest in reading and will be read to more frequently. This grant was for a Public Safety Appreciation and Community Involvement day. Over 300 people (from a small, rural community) attended the day-long event where there were fun activities, a barbeque, and local law enforcement had the chance to give safety information to area youth, as well as spend time with the kids just having fun. The event was planned by a group of 20 criminal justice students, who received help from other youth groups at their school. $2,000 was also raised that day to support the community. Youth participants at Douglass Community Association (community center in low-income sector of Kalamazoo) requested increased hours of Planned Parenthood satellite office.

This program will challenge students to think about drinking, their personal safety, and the responsibility of making mature life-long decisions concerning alcohol use. To provide a dance instructor for interested students. 16 youth participated, plus 4-6 adults. The outcome was several performances and a desire to continue the program this year. Although the amount of this grant is small, it helped leverage matching funds from the National Salvation Army that will be used here locally in Manistee County. It will help youth and their families that are considered "newly poor" afford food and utility services that are currently out of reach. The YAC allocated $2,000 to support the youth cross country ski race and $1,000 in scholarships for young people who can not afford skis, lessons and racing fees. For these young people these expenses were taken care of and they were able to participate in the race. The YAC was also able to provide service prior to and during the event itself as well as spearhead media for the race including radio, television, print and web based media. The YAC, none of whom are cross country skiers, also had the opportunity to experience cross country skiing and experience first hand how physically demanding the sport is. Support for this project was based on several community needs including: expanding access to opportunities for all youth, health and fitness, and a positive way to combat seasonal affective disorder as Marquette County experiences high rates of this in our youth population. The YAC also realized that the event is a positive economic development activity for our community. Although this grant is certainly not the largest, it may have made one of the most significant impacts of this year's YAC grantmaking. For several years our community was involved in a very controversial issue focused on the high school mascot--the Redskins. Many supported changing the mascot to a more ethnically respectable name. Others believed that the mascot held a long-respected tradition. Eventually the mascot was changed to the Redhawks. The YACers funded a grant to provide replacement banners for the high school gym carrying the Redhawk insignia.

MCYAC was awarded a matching grant from MCFYP which allowed the youth to host a county-wide alcohol prevention conference for youth. After the conference, each school was awarded $200 to replicate elements from the conference or to create their own alcoholprevention programming. This grant, the conference, and the subsequent programming had an impact on all of Midland County and was a huge success. This grant funded a Children's Summer Safety Program, a free day camp for children between the ages of 5 and 12. This Summer Safety Program was to help teach children about bicycle safety (signs and signals), the importance of keeping hands clean and sanitized, how to recognize different poisonous plants, water safety, warning signs and prevention of sunburn, dehydration, and heat related illness, as well as stranger danger. The program works with court involved youth to develop their skills and community contacts through service learning. The main service learning project is planting, nurturing, growing and harvesting wild rice. This grant brought a speaker to Crawford AuSable Schools who addressed 7-12 grade students and their parents (at a separate presentation) about the legal dangers of technology use, including use of cell phones and social media. The program reached over 500 people in the community and focused on a problem that is becoming more and more common: youth getting into legal trouble with photos, websites and other communications technology, in part because they are unaware of the laws regarding their usage. Many who attended reported that the presentation was an eye-opener about privacy laws and other issues. This Healthy Choices event exposes Norway Elementary School students to a variety of health occupations that exist in the local area, what skills/training are necessary to work in that field, and how educations plays an important part in determining their healthy choices. "Be-A-Santa" project. Each school selects a family in need and then goes Christmas shopping to provide much needed items for family members. It builds team unity and gives the YAC great exposure.

Nearly 70 area youth benefited by learning about conservation issues and measures to ease degradation in the area they live in. 44 �YAC 2009 Annual Survey YAC examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking: Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation YMCA of Northern Michigan $2,000 Roscommon County Community Foundation American Red Cross $568 Saginaw Community Foundation Mid-Michigan Hapkido Community Outreach $4,000 Sanilac County Community Foundation Schoolcraft County Community Foundation Department of Human Services $2,250 Manistique Area Schools $500 Shiawassee Community Foundation Salvation Army $2,500 Southfield Community Foundation Sparta Community Foundation St. Ignace Area Community Foundation South Center for Youth $25,000 Sparta Area Schools $999 EUP Intermediate School District $1,421 YAC 2009 Annual Survey Report to the Field Although this wasn't the largest or the most unique grant, this $2,000 award provided funds that the YMCA could pull from to help families make up the difference if they couldn't pay the full amount for summer camp. The YMCA also offered before and after care for children of working parents. This grant gave the organization flexibility to use the funds as needed for this purpose, provided opportunities for local children who may not have had them otherwise, and supported working families that needed care for all ages of children during the day. YAC awarded $568 to assist with the cost of providing Basic Aid Training (B.A.T.) for all 4th grade students at public and private schools in our county. Six of our YAC members were trained to teach "Just Say No to Alcohol, Tobacco and Drugs". They did an excellent job relating to the 4th graders about a very important subject. The goal at Mid-Michigan Hapkido Community Outreach is to teach children how to appropriately defend themselves, get into great physical shape, and learn special life lessons. In addition to the physical kicking and punching skills required to learn selfdefense, children learn how to use discipline, respect, self-control, teamwork, and more to excel in school as well as at home.

Since the system was introduced, many of the student’s families have purchased one for their own as a way to have fun together as a family and be active. This grant was for Rachel's Challenge program for all middle school students in the community addressing the issues of bullying, tolerance for others, respect for peers and adults. Proceeds from the festival fund various community projects. This grant was for youth entertainment at the festival. This grant was for a composting project that was a relatively small grant in terms of dollar amount but had a significant and ongoing impact on our youth. The grant provided funding for a K-5 elementary school with over 500 students to purchase equipment for a school composting program. Students did before and after comparisons of their school's garbage output, incorporated these efforts into their science and social studies classes, and were empowered to teach their family, friends and other community members about the positive impact composting can have for the environment and our community. The Jackson Storyfest program involves all 14 school districts in Jackson County and impacts more than 5,600 youth and adults. Professional and amateur storytellers provide storytelling to youth with classroom follow-up connecting oral language, self-esteem, reading and writing skills. This grant supported a student initiated healthy food campaign to assist with fighting youth obesity by promoting healthy eating. Equipment and supplies were purchased for this youth oriented food and nutrition program promoting healthy eating and exercise for county students. 46 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Nurturing lnnoVatio. n Program GuJde The premier networking & education event for Michigan Grantmakers �Welcome to Traverse City in its glorious autumn color season. We are happy you are here, joining friends and colleagues from Michigan's dynamic philanthropic community, for the Council of Michigan Foundations' 38th annual conference. During ovr two days together, we will learn from and be inspired by four exciting plenary speakers and dozens of outstanding presenters. Our theme, Nurturing Innovation, w ill be the focus of their remarks and our discussions on philanthropy's unique role in securing Michigan's future. Michigan foundations are poised to create an even greater impact as we work individually, together and in · partnership with the public, private and nonprofit sectors for the common good, bring together networks of people who care about our communities and take a long-term view of our state's unique prospects. > CMF's goal for the annual conference is to design an event that recognizes, honors and welcomes each of you an provides you with opportunities to reflect, refresh and network with peers; be exposed to the latest knowledge and issues facing philanthropy; and learn at least one new skill or resource that helps you be more effective. To get our creative juices flowing, we have invited graphic recorder Ronna Alexander, Alexander Ink, to captu re t e experiences and key ideas from the conference and to work with each of us to build an image of the future we are working to create for Michigan. In recognition of the extraordinary asset we have in our Great Lakes, CMF is pleased to co-host the Great Lakes Funders meeting immediately following the annual conference. During the conference, we encourage you to visit Resource Central where you can get the latest resources, learn more about CMF and its partners and talk with our exhibitors- all professionals with experience serving foundations. Many thanks to our sponsors and foundation supporters whose generosity has made it possible to offer an outstanding conference experience. Please join us in thanking them.

An intimidating range of forces-globalization , institutions alike have been striving to be more strategic, shifting sectoral roles, economic crisis, and ubiquitous efficient, and effective in a variety of ways. But it is clear connective technologies, to name just a few-are that the last decade's changes will not be sufficient. changing both what philanthropy is called upon to do The new context requires that funders adjust to the ways and how donors and foundations will accomplish their in which their actions are connected to others' actions, work in the future. in a dynamic interplay with external events, in order to Yet many of philanthropy's core practices and principles have a greater impact , faster. remain essentially unchanged from the way they were Where the cutting edge of philanthropic innovation done a hundred years ago, when Andrew Carnegie and over the last decade was mostly about improving John D. Rockefeller first created the foundation form. The world around philanthropy is changing much, much faster than philanthropy itself. organizational effectiveness, efficiency, and responsiveness, we believe that the next practices of the coming IO years will have to build on those efforts This is not to say that philanthropy hasn't responded to to include an additional focus on coordination and the shifting landscape. To the contrary. As the relevance adaptation. The most innovative funders in the future and role of philanthropy has become a more urgent will do more than operate as effective , independent question over the past decade, newer actors and older institutions. They will act BIGGER and adapt BETTER: YOU AND/ OR YOUR ORGANIZATION ACTING BIGGER TAKE SMART RISKS SHARE BY DEFAULT Given the scale and social complexity of the challenges they face, funders will increasingly look to other actors, both in phi lanthropy and across sectors, to activate sufficient resources to make sustainable progress on issues of shared concern.

THE OUTSIDE WORLD �NEXT PRACTICES FOR PHILANTHROPY'S NEXT DECADE Simply tweaking the status quo is not likely to be enough for philanthropic and civic leaders looking to cultivate change more effectively in a world that sorely needs it. Tomorrow' s most successful funders will do more than just adopt today' s best practices . They will have to pioneer "next practices" -new ways of working that fit the emerging landscape of public problem solving: ACTING U BIGGER UNDERSTAND THE CONTEXT ADAPTING BETTER .-a KNOW WHAT WORKS (AND WHAT DOESN'T) Strong peripheral vision-seeing and developing a shared understanding of the system in which they operate-will be critical to helping funders build and coordinate resource s to address large , complex problems. . . . Effective funders will develop systems to learn from their successes, and their failures , in ways that can help everyonefunders and grantees alike-develop the judgment to guide and improve efforts in the future. RE-AMP, a collaborative of Midwestern foundations and non profits, developed a shared understand ing of the levers for achieving clean energy in the Midwest by mapping the system of relevant forces and players, helping to align the vision and coordinate the efforts of many independent stakeholders. THE WALLACE FOUNDATION is systematically testing and evaluating innovative educational and cultural programs around the United States, methodically sharing the results to broadly spread knowledge about effective approaches-with more than 200,000 report down loads a year. P...l PICK THE RIGHTTOOL(S) FORTHEJOB Funders have a wide range of assets-money , knowledge , networks , expertise , and influence-that can be applied deliberately to create social change. THE VERMONT COMMUNITY FOUNDATION is ensuring that its investment strategies complement its programmatic goals by offeri ng donors the option to invest money in local socially-responsible businesses, using its investment managers to vote by proxy, and co-filing activist shareholder resolutions. -~ ALIGN INDEPENDENT ACTION . . Philanthropies are developing new models for wo rking together that allow for both coordination and independence. Funders don't necessarily need to make decisions together , but they do need their efforts to add up. THE CLIMATEWORKS FOUNDATION has helped more than 10 funders and scores of other actors work in concert as part of a $1 billion coordinated global campaign to fight climate change by addressing global energy efficiency standards, forest conservation and agriculture, and low-carbon energy supply. -~ ACTIVATE NETWORKS -~ KEEP PACE WITH CHANGE As the speed of change accelerates around us , funders will need to build feedback l oops that help them change and shift behavior based on dynamic realities and l essons l earned in real time. THE ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION has replaced its long-standing, fixed ~~programs" with a set of interconnected, time-limite d "initiatives" that aim to allow the Foundation to quickly respond to unanticipated opportunities, to shift tacti cs wh en necessary, and to regularly reca librate its approach to fit external needs. 0 g OPEN UP TO NEW INPUTS New tools and approaches now allow funders to solicit points of view from diverse cultures and perspectives, to access new and wildcard ideas , and to get buy- in and engagement from stakeholders . THE CENTER FOR EFFECTIVE PHILANTHROPY'S YOUTHTRUTH initiative is measuring the success of school reform by soliciting feedback directly from high school students about the quality of their experience, providing valuab le input to foundation and d istrict leadership from voices that would normally not be heard . . . Advances in network theory and practice now allow funders to be more deliberate about supporting connectivity, coordinating networks, and thinking about how the collective impact of all of their efforts can produce change far beyond the success of any single grant , grantee , or donor. THE BARR FOUNDATION is building a stronger network of afterschool service providers for Boston youth by supporting "network weavers" who facilitate relationship building, knowledge sharing, and collaboration among service providers and community leaders. - LEVERAGE OTHERS' RESOURCES . . Funders can use their independent resources as levers to catalyze much larger streams of funding and activity from other sources by stimul ating markets , influencing public opinion and policy , and activating new players and assets. THE CLINTON HEALTH ACCESS INITIATIVE is working to aggregate demand, improve efficiencies, and reduce volatility in the market for AIDS drugs in an effort to provide medicine affordably in Africa and the Caribbean.

It makes sense to start from a place of sharing everything and then make a few exceptions, rather than a place of sharing little where transparency is the exception. ASHOKA'S CHANGEMAKERS competition "open sources" proposals by placing them on a public messageboard , allowing the community of participants to not only choose their favorites but also to strengthen all of the contestants' ideas and build awareness of them in the field . ~ TAKE SMART RISKS The most effective funders will recognize when innovation is necessary, and will be willing to make high-risk, high - reward bets that have the potential to create transformative change . THE HEINZ ENDOWMENTS, the Grable Foundation, and the Pittsburgh Foundation took the risk of abruptly and publicly cutting funding to the city's failing school district in order to spark the public engagement necessary for reform . �Council of Michigan Foundations Serving grantmakers.

The youth did the shopping and accompanied the adults during the delivery of the baskets. Though it didn’t have the most widespread impact, what it did do was touch the hearts of all involved and sent a powerful message to all who became aware of Harper Creek’s efforts. Furthermore, it was a reminder to YAC that it doesn’t always take a huge amount of money or elaborate program to make a huge impact. Most importantly, that same lesson was being taught to our young leaders in junior high. What an amazing message to send to our young people! 44 �Community Foundation Grantee Organization Grant Amount Grants Bay Area Community Foundation Challenge Day $15,000 The YAC brought this exceptional program to all Bay County Public Middle Schools.

It is tradition to inv ite a new Governor to join us and we are honored to have Governor Rick Snyder open our conference with a "Conversation on Vision, Opportunity and Action for Reinventing Michigan." As we already know, this Governor is all about action and he is challenging the foundation community to take our 25-plus years of partnering with state government to a higher level of action. Because education is the single largest issue focus for philanthropy and so vital to Michigan's successful reinvention, we will be closing our conference with a spirited conversation featuring Kevin Clash, Sesame Street's Emmy-Award winning senior puppet coordinator, accompanied by his most popular charact er, Elmo. This "Conversation s,n Education" will be hosted by Dr. Juan Olivarez, president of Aquinas College who was, until this summer, president of the Kalamazoo Community Foundation. Last January, Juan joined with Rick Hughey, executive vice president and CEO of the Irving S. Gilmore Foundation and the late Mark Morley to launch the planning process for this Conference as our three co-chairs. We greatly appreciate the contributions each made to the success of this conference. We joined the Morley Foundation and Saginaw Community this summer in mourning Mark's tragic loss in the Chicago to Mackinac Race. A long time supporter of CMF and a fixture at many annual conferences, Mark will be missed this year. The Board of Trustees has dedicated this conference to Mark. Between the Governor and Elmo are five opportunities to choose from 39 different sessions covering the best in governance, leadership, grantmaking issues and strategies, communications, and finance for foundations of all types and sizes. You will find the choices tough to make, but the planning committee and staff listened to your feedback from last year's conference and have assembled a great roster of presenters from across the country and here in Michigan . Kalamazoo provides many examples of reinvention through vision, opportunity and action. We are grateful to Rick and the Irving S. Gilmore Foundation for their gift of an evening of community arts as Kalamazoo shares its passion for why "The Arts are the heART of Kalamazoo." We are proud to showcase a growing, thriving city and a conference that will energize and inspire all of us in doing our part to reinvent Michigan. We thank you for participating in Michigan's dynamic philanthropic community! ~ Rob Collier, president/CEO ~~ Dave Sebastian, chair, CMF Board �nnual Conference Honorary Chairs • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Th e Board of Trustees of the Council of Michigan Foundat ions is pleased to recognize the recip ients of the 2011 Russell G. Mawby Award for Phil anthropy and the 2011 Community Foundation Philanthropy Award as Hono rary Chairs of the 2011 Annual Conference. Jim and Donna Brooks of Holland, recipients of the 2011 Russell G. Mawby Award, believe "people who are blessed need to realize that they are responsible to give back to the community in order to keep it a great place to live, learn, work and play." Through personal commitment and their donor-advised fund at the Community Foundation of the Holland/ Zeeland Area (CFHZA), the Brooks' have, indeed, given bac k. Their community support is exte nsive and inc ludes board service w ith t he CFHZA, and Grand Va lley State University Foundation, as wel l as the creation of ~cholarships, supp ort for the Ready for School initiative, Lakeshore Advantage, the Holland -Zeeland Model Community Initiatives, Hol land Historic Trust, the Cook-DeVos Center for Health Sciences, and Lakeshore Ethnic Diversity Alli ance and more. As one community leader noted, "They not on ly give of their own finan cial resources, but invest t hemsel ves persona lly on boards, task forces, committees and more. One of the ir greatest attributes is that they make themselves accessible to everyone in their community." David Donovan of Lansing, recipient of the 2011 Community Foundation Philanthropy Award, represents the type of person every charitab le organization des ires to have as a board member. As a vo lunteer trustee and donor to the Capital Region Community Foundation, he dediG:ates count less hours each month to attending board and committee meetings. He devotes more hours working on projects suc h as the Armory Nonprofit Center and chairing the board's Strateg ic Planning Committee whose work guided the board to engage in proactive grantmaking focused on economic development and youth . Da ve sees the big picture and has the creativity to come up w ith viab le solutions. He exercises servant leadership that brings people together and builds consensus. His generous heart leads him to financ ially support not only the community foundation through his donor advised fund but also many other community causes . In 2008, the Capital Area Chapter of the Assoc iat ion of Fundraising Professionals recogn ized Dave by awarding him the Outstanding Volunteer Fundraiser Award. Simp ly put, Dave's service has been invaluable to the greater Lansing community. A SPECIAL DEDICATION: Mark Morley From the Council of Michigan Foundations Board of Trustees RESOLVED that the trustees and staff of the Council of Michigan Foundations join in celebrating the life of trustee Mark Morley and his many contributions toward making the Saginaw area and Michigan a better place for all through: his leadership w ith the Morley Foundation, his collaboration as a trustee of CMF, his can -do attitude which turned problems into opportunities and his engaging storyte lling which united us all.

In 1999/2000, the Midland Area Community Foundation, with funding support from some other local foundations, led the Midland Visioning Project. This countywide initiative was an effort to solicit from Midland County citizens their feelings about the county's assets, needs, and their vision for the county ten years hence. One of the most common criticisms was that the entrances into the City of Midland were not welcoming - that there was no sense of arrival or sense of place. Based on this information, the Entranceways Initiative Task Force (EITF) was developed in 2002. The EITF is comprised of citizens, city planners, business leaders and local foundation members who joined together with the central mission of improving the appearance and function of the entranceways into the City of Midland. Recognizing that a city’s entranceways offer the first impression of a community for many visitors, the EITF chose the north Eastman Avenue area as their current area of focus. In partnership with the Midland County Fair Board, landscape improvements were made at both the south and north fairground entrances on Eastman Avenue.

To raise awareness among youth and adults in the community of Mt. Pleasant, the high school launched a public education campaign as part of the national Youth Outreach for Victim Assistance (YOVA) Project. Mt. Pleasant High School submitted their project and was selected by the National Crime Prevention Council and the National Center for Victims of Crime as one of only 20 sites nationwide to receive funding and training to develop a campaign around teen victimization. The high school put together an impressive program for the day and invited speakers from both the national and local level, including keynote speaker, Erika Harold, Miss America 2003. Ms. Harold was a victim of bullying and harassment in high school and devoted her year of service as Miss America to fighting teen violence and bullying. Additional speakers included two representatives from Challenge Day (specifically funded by the YAC) that offered a modified version of their program in one-hour sessions and then they conducted the student assembly at the end of the day. The message that these people have to offer is a powerful one as they challenge students to be the change they want to see in their school. National statistics and data from the high school counseling office demonstrate a strong need for education and support on the victimization of youth. �YAC 2004 Annual Survey Examples of high-impact and creative grantmaking Community Foundation Mt.

CONFERENCE PROGRAM FORMAT ON 33rd Annual Conference Octobe r 10-12, Grand Traverse Resort and Spa Special Pre-conference Events, October 9 • __f!i:ttve �DEAR COLLEAGUES Welcome to the Council of Michigan Foundations' 33rd Annual Conference. We're excited to have you with us on the spectacular Grand Traverse Bay for the year's premier education and networking event for staff and trustees of Michigan foundations. Our theme, Effective Grantmaking for Changing Times, speaks to the increased expectations government, the media, nonprofits and foundation leaders have for every aspect of foundation operations from administration to grantor-grantee relations. The over 60 sessions, workshops, micro-workshops and other special opportunities will help you maintain or strengthen your foundation's effectiveness. We are grateful to the many Program Committee members who designed these opportunities. Their work was informed by the latest developments in the field as well as evaluations of the 2004 conference. Developing the capacity to tell your foundation's story is an important and often overlooked element of effectiveness. This year, CMF introduces its first conference exhibit, Telling Your Story, to showcase effective communication strategies used by CMF members. We encourage you to visit Resource Central frequently during the conference which offers an array of learning opportunities and excellent resources. While there, please visit with each of our exhibitors, all experienced in working with foundations. The generosity of our many sponsors has made it possible to provide you with an outstanding conference experience. Please join us in thanking them for their support. Thank you for being with us.

HALL, executive director MAUREEN NICHOLSON, executive director Whirlpool Foundation Petoskey-Harbor Springs Area Community Foundation �HONORARY CHAIRS The A rt and Mary Schmuckal Fam ily The Council of Michigan Foundations is honored to recognize the Art and Mary Schmuckal family of Traverse City as Honorary Chairs of the 33rd Annual Conference. Mary Hoffer grew up in Petoskey and was working as a bookkeeper and teller at Traverse City State Bank when she met and married a young dairy farmer named Art Schmuckal in 1945. By 1955, Art was looking for more activity and joined forces with George Slane to form the Slane and Schmuckal Oil Company, continually recognized as one of the best operations in the Shell franchise and still a family business. Throughout their 53 years of marriage, Art and Mary remained a devoted team. "What's always impressed me about my parents is they've been in the background," notes daughter Evelyn. "Their deep belief as Catholics is that works are important. They've been so involved in the Christian community and that has spilled over into the general community.They have given us a strong sense of direction, and I see that in my siblings and their children." Marsha Smith, executive director of Rotary Charities of Traverse City comments, "The Schmuckal family demonstrates philanthropy in the full sense of the word. They give of their time and talent, as well as resources to improve this community that has been their life long home. Nonprofit organizations, key to the fabric of the Grand Traverse Region, have benefited and continue to benefit from their service and leadership." For example, Art served as chairman of the Grand Traverse County Board of Supervisors when plans were made to build a new county Medical Care facility adjacent to Munson Medical Center in the 1950's. The plan represented a novel, cost-effective approach to combining hospital and county ancillary services, such as laundry and pharmacy. This ongoing interest in medical care is shown in last year's gift to support Munson's Emergency Room expansion -serving more than 40,000 people a year. The Art and Mary Schmuckal Family Foundation was established following Mary's death in 1999. "It was something that Mom wanted to do and all of us kids thought it was wonderful," says daughter Barbara. The family continues to use one consistent benchmark for supporting a project: "Does it benefit the community?" When the answer is yes, Schmuckal family funds are frequently committed to the cause, often quietly and behind the scenes. Following the legacy of their parents, Paul and Don Schmuckal and sisters Evelyn Richardson and Barbara Benson, continue to believe "the important thing is not how much you'll get paid or what you are entitled to, but to return back to the community what you have been blessed to have." �TABLE OF CONTENTS THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS & EXHIBITORS I General Information . ........ . ... ... . . . . ................. . .3 Resource Central ............ . . . .... . ...... .. ... . .... .. .. .4 Conference At a Glance . .. .............. ... . . . .... .. . .. .5-6 ****SPONSORS SESSION SPONSORS DTE Energy Foundation Americana Foundation Come rica Bank, Munder Blue Cross Blue Shield of Capital Management, Wilson Kemp and World Conference Schedule Asset Management Sunday, October 9 ......... .. .. .. .. . ................ ... .7 General Motors Foundation Monday, October 10 ....... ... ... . ............ . . ... . . .7-8 Matt Foundation CMF Early Matters JP Morgan Asset Management Funders' Group Merrill Lynch- The lies Group Dorothy A.

Present were Leonard White, Gilbert Hudson, John Paynter, Robert Miller, Margaret Riecker, Gail Bouwman , Miles Jreffe, Betty McGuire, Robert Risselade, Barry Driggers, Harwood Rydholm, Ray Kooi, Fred Corwin, Norman DesJardins, Howard Kalleward, Sophia Gorham, Dorothy Johnson, William White, and Susan Cobb, who recorded. Mr. Leonard White opened the meeting by welcoming new members , Mr. Driggers, Mr. Jaffe, and Mr . Rydholm. Plans for the survey and directory were reviewed. Progress has been delayed for lack of complete data, but publication is expected in early fall. Ms. Gorham, Mr. Hudson, and Mr. Leonard White will meet with Tom Buckman of the Foundation Center in regard to this publication. Computer print-outs were passed around, showing 329 Michigan foundations' assets and grants for either calendar or fiscal 1972. A letter will be sent to these foundations, (only 97 are listed in the 1975 edition of the Foundation Center U1rectory,) including a copy of the Foundation Center print - out, asking them to update the information , and submit a short statement of their purpose , area limits , (if any , ) and application procedures. Ms. Miller suggested adding nonexempt foundations to the Directory. This Directory will serve the Conference of Michigan Foundations in cutting down requests not pertinent to the foundations , and in giving foundations a better relationship with the press and legislators, as well as with grantees. The Survey will include 59 Michigan foundations with assets of $4 million or over and/or grants of $250,000 or over. These 59 foundations will give 90% coverage of all grants in Michigan. Distribution of this dual publication was discussed, and it was the general feeling that all contributors to CMF should receive a free copy, and other copies would be available at $3 to $4. Mrs. Miller suggested including a short paragraph on expenditure responsibility in the survey. Miss McGuire raised the question of the three major foundations contributing the cost of the sruv8 and directory , with no participation by the smaller foundations. Mr. Risselade gave the Treasurer's report, a copy of which is attached to these minutes. Contributions showed an increase ~!P~~t ~~df~~: ;:~o~~wo~ri:~~z~~!~n~h!sAC~~~~~~~~~nr~:I;~~~ti~~s 8 fees up, but numbers down , with a 24% increase in Co nference expenses. �Mr . Paynter gave the report of the Nominating Committee as follows: Chairman: Vice - Chairman: Secretary: Treasurer: Gilbert Hudson Howard Kalleward Sophia Gorham Robert Risselade Executive Committee: officers duly elected and Leonard White and John Paynter William White moved for acceptance of the report, Mr. Kooi seconded, and the motion passes unanimously. Mr. Hudson took the chair for the remainder of the meeting, thanking Leonard White for his work, and promising to convey his thanks and that of others at the luncheon to follow. Discussion followed on the appointment of the staff for the Conference of Michigan Foundations. It was moved and seconded that Sophia D . Gorham be appointed as Executive Secretary. The motion passed unanimously. Ms. Gorham then explained the arrangement between CMF and Foundation Services, Inc., the company of which she is President. The Budget for the 1975-76 Conference Year was discussed. It was pointed out that when CMF becomes a non-profit corporation, it will qualify for bulk mailing rates. Ms. Gorham also mentioned that all travel and expenses for conferences are cleared through the executive committee. Mr. Hudson directed the discussion toward anticipated income, and the memorandum on "Expanding Our Financial Base." It is evident that broadened support is needed . Ways of contacting foundations and banks not represented were discussed. A statement summarizing the purpose, goals, and past and future actions of CMF was suggested for personal approaches. Steering Committee members volunteered to contact those foundations with which they were familiar. Materials for personal contact will be provided shortly. Mr. Risselade suggested de-emphasizing the Annual Conference in these materials, and emphasizing other aspects of CMF. Returning to the Budget, Mr. Risselade moved that the budget as written be accepted. The motion was seconded and approved. The resolutions concerning fiscal management (attached) were discussed. Mr. William White moved for their acceptance, Mr . DesJardins seconded, and the motion was carried. The next order of business was the review of the proposed Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation. Mr. Leonard White answered questions about the necessity to include the fee schedule in the Bylaws, and explained the history of the preparations to incorporate. As mandated at the Second Annual Conference in Ann Arbor, incorporation proceedings will be initiated when the Conference has fifty contributors for two consecutive years. It was anticipated �that there would be fifty contributors before the next Steering Committee meeting. Mr. Des Jardins moved that the Executive Committee be empowered to file for incorporation as soon as the fiftieth contribution is received, without waiting for the Steering Committee meeting. The motion was seconded and carried. The necessity for legal counsel to review the Articles and Bylaws was discussed, and Mr. Jaffe offered to do this with the Executive Committee. Mr. Jaffe suggested that the membership of the Board section be re - written to include up to 10% of the membership to be persons not otherwise qualified as members. Associa te membership was discussed . Mr. Rydholm suggested that an organization might become an associate member by application, payment of a $10 fee, and approval of the Steering Committee. Mrs. Miller suggested that Article VIII, Section (e) of the Articles of Incorporation might read" . .. to suc h organization s described in Section 501(c)(3) or a public organization described in 509(a}(2 o r 3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 , ... " Discussion of the 1976 Conference centered around location and date. The Kalamazoo Center Inn prevailed as the favored location , and late February or ear ly March as the time. The Executive Committee will make the final decision, meeting at Kalamazoo on May 28 or 29, as empowered by a vote of the Steering Committee. Length of the Conference was discussed. The consensus of conferees at Troy was for a l i day meeting. Mr . William White mentioned the Conference of State Attorneys General, asking if foundation should be represented. The consensus of opinion was yes , an d Mr. White was asked to share the report from the Matt Foundation controller, who is currently attending the Conference. The meeting was adjourned at 12:43PM. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
